Which is easy to see, since the generally accepted (NATO/UN) term for
such weapons was NBC's (Nuclear, Biological, Chemical) prior to the
runup to war.  Notice how factually listing what the weapons actually
are is less emotionally charged than describing their effects: "Mass

Falluja, us crazy fundamentalist christians in the USA are known to
have used NBC's frequently throughout history, including against our
own citizens.

Back to what started this thread, isn't it nice that this is a calm,
