Thanks Republicans!

Thanks for blowing hundreds of billions of dollars on two wars that haven't made anybody anywhere any safer!

You really know your stuff!

wait, who released this report early? don't they save these things so we can have fun hearings on who dropped the ball? now... we have no excuses

pretty much a given and an easy guess. you don't even WANT to know what else is going to happen! boy howdy.

p.s. it involves many monkeys and crisco. so many monkeys. you've been warned obama!

What a load of crap this puff piece is. Next to no evidence presented to support their fear-mongering. What is the Obama administration going to do to prevent attacks by the Flying Spaghetti Monster? He needs to dedicate more funding to the Spaghetti-Industrial Complex, clearly.

The biggest threat to humanity is still Humanity.

I blame Obama

Sounds like baseless fear mongering. Maybe this will help decrease civil liberties and increase executive powers even more.

"Homo homini lupus." -- Thomas Hobbes

"...Although a number of international treaties have banned the development, production, and stockpiling of chemical weapons, these agents reportedly are still being produced or stockpiled in several countries.

Within the last decade, terrorists deployed chemical weapons against civilian populations for the first time in history. The release of sarin in Matsumoto, Japan, in June 1994 by the extremist Aum Shinrikyo cult left 7 dead and 280 injured. The following year, the Aum Shinrikyo cult released sarin vapor in the Tokyo subway system during morning rush hour, leaving 12 dead and sending more than 5,000 casualties to local hospitals."


The threat is real, the only thing that prevents massive use is the labs and facilities needed to produce it on large scales. The procurement from failing first world nations is a very large and real threat. To just brush the idea under the carpet and say "It will never happen" is naive. Just because something hasn't happened before on a large scale doesn't make it impossible or improbable. The fact remains that terrorist organizations would LOVE to deploy such weapons if they could get their hands on large supplies of them.

While there might be a certain degree of unnecessary fear pandering in this video, that doesn't mean the idea should be completely disregarded, the consequences are just to grave to ignore.

^ If you didn't already know it was possible then you've been living under a rock. Seriously. The media comes out with this and people get scared? I've heard people say: "If Obama gets elected the terrorists are going to attack!" It works both ways. Terrorists are going to attack. The surprising thing is that it doesn't happen more often. 40,000 illegal immigrants come over the Mexican border alone each year and people feel safe because of who's in the white house? Really?

You know what my first thought was on the morning of 9/11/01? It was, "jeez, I've been expecting this for so long. I'm surprised it doesn't happen more often."

Even if an event the size of 9/11 were to occur in America EVERY YEAR, more people would still die of peanut alergies.

Maybe America should stop giving extremists reasons to do something like this, wouldn't that be a good idea? Maybe start with reading over a few of those foreign policies?

Now that a liberal will be in the White House, we can all start taking these threats seriously, unlike when Bush invented 9-11.

I thought Mr. Obama was going to make the world love and respect us.
