Okay, I'll bite. Let's say the U.S. actually knows where the chemical weapons are made/stored or just scores a "lucky" hit with a cruise missile. Explosions happen to be great for spreading stuff over large areas. What could happen if a major stockpile of chemical agents gets hit and it happens to be near or directly upwind of a major population center?
- comex 13y agoDo you think that the entire U.S. military has not thought of that idea? While there is the possibility of a mistake, presumably they will avoid strikes on locations which are likely to cause such an event.
- acqq 13y agoAccording to their own claims, U.S. military do accidentally bomb the wrong coordinates: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U.S._bombing_of_the_Chinese_embassy_in_Belgrade http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U.S._bombing_of_the_Chinese_emb... The victims of such bombings are called in U.S. newspeak the "collateral damage." That would be the language if they'd hit the chemical weapons storages.
