I consistently present them as being of varying potency. Please try to stop lying.

Repeating falsehoods doesn't make them true. Mustard gas lingers, and continues to poison, blister, and kill over time, and it would not be the least bit difficult to use it to kill thousands. You're talking about the people who coordinated near simultaneous plane crashes into the Pentagon, WTC, and White House, not some boobs with their fingers up their noses.

And lack of wind movement is a condition easily attainable by terrorists detonating mustard gas shells.

Do I know anything about WWI? Seriously? You think using Mustard Gas to prevent troops from entering entire regions isn't using Mustard Gas to great effect? As usual, you're not thinking it through. There's more to think about than casualties alone when determining the effectiveness of a weapon.

At that low level, the only real risk is if you placed it next to your gentiles or if you ground it into a powder and inhaled large amounts of it.
As for the 1,000 other, I'll need to see the list. |
The point remains that when used with conventional weapons, this radioactive material would lethally poison people and constitute a dirty bomb.

And I just cited an article about them cracking down on al Qaida in 2003. You claimed they hadn't started fighting al Qaida until recently. That was a lie.
Way to dig the hole deeper.

And the fact that their motive for fighting al Qaida is self-interest is relevant...how?

your problem.
Here it is again if you want to try to figure it out:

Are you always so slow to grasp when someone is using your "logic" against you? You said we should have gone into Iran or Syria. We hadn't tried diplomacy with them the way we had with Iraq, for 15 years...so like I said, you oppose war with the regime we've exhausted diplomacy with-Saddam's-but think we should attack the ones we've not even bothered to try it on yet...further proof that it really is only Republicans who want to try diplomacy first.
Grasp it now? Having to re-explain the painfully obvious is why so much of your posts get ignored.

Nothing. |
Yeah, how could us giving bloodthirsty terrorists an easily accessible fight in their own back yard possibly reduce the amount of them flying around the world to risk getting captured trying to get into the US, to then try to meet up with other terrorists and pull off an un-detected terrorist attack in a post-9/11 world? They must have just stopped flying planes into our buildings for the last 7 years out of
boredom, yeah that's it.

Stop lying. |
Again, this is why your posts get largely ignored. You argued that invading Iraq took resources away from hunting Bin Laden, yet you also argue that we should have invaded Saudi Arabia, Syria, and Iran...wouldn't those invasions
also take resources from hunting Bin Laden? Like I said, your contradictions are catching up with you. You seem to forget that your own stated position is that anything other than hunting Bin Laden is invalid. And instead of comprehending that you contradicted yourself, you draw more attention to it by hurling insults at me for noticing. Comical.
