What is a WMD?

ellal · 22 Apr 2013

The surviving suspect in the Boston Marathon bombings has been charged with using a weapon of mass destruction, the US Department of Justice says.

So if a very small bomb in Boston is called a WMD, what do we call the missiles launched by US drones at civilians in countries that they are not at war with?

Shut up ellal.

Obama is brining democracy to these countries.

Do you hate democracy!

I've been told that apparently there is someone who has recently been following my posts with a stalker like enthusiasm...

I have an idea who it might be, so all I have to say is....

WMD means whatever the guys with the most WMDs want it to mean.

This is just a way to get him into the Federal system. They want to f*** him hard and the Feds will make him rue the day he was born in a way that Mass couldn't even come close to. Totally unconstitutional but I doubt too many people will be moaning about that this time.

So there must have been WMD's in Iraq after all. Blair and Bush are vindicated

What?? Sadaam had a couple of Prestige pressure cookers in the kitchen?

It was pan-demonium.

Well let's see what happened.

Blair/Bush said Saddam had WMD.
Saddam said he didn't.

Blair/Bush are living a life of luxury.
Saddam isn't.

So I guess you prove my point !

I always thought WMD was another name for nuclear weapons, and possibly chemical.

Edit: I just googled it. On Wiki it describes them thus: "it has come to distinguish large-scale weaponry of other technologies, such as chemical, biological, radiological, or nuclear."

I feel sorry for the fool for using a prestigious pressure cooker! and since using that he has lost his vocals! he is unable to talk or scream, so I can't help imagining him getting rammed left right centre with all sorts and him unable to even scream! serves him quite right though!

Death penalty would be too kind for him.

Precisely...

But given the new description, maybe someone should mention it to Robert Dyas that they could be guilty of supplying WMD's from their Kitchen Range...

Especially when they fill them with ball bearings and nails.

Our local Coop department store, are now bricking themselves. The housewares manager can't sleep at night.

PS, I remember some years ago, my dad was cooking something in his Prestige HiDome cooker when the weight blew off the top of it. Surprising how far cabbage, potatoes and carrots can go through that little 6mm diameter hole.

(turned out the pressure safety bit on it wasn't working)

I feel hurt and rejected.

Is my Tower brand pressure cooker any good? would it be banned under the term WMD?

So the Police seals your street down, evacuates the entire street, later on the Media asks the Police if they found any explosives or other substances, and the reply most likely to told is yes we have found some WMD, full of carrots and onions! almost ready for deployment and we have averted a major disaster in time.

Mind you it isn't funny though! one day I forced opened mine and the lid blew off pouring soup all over, and the carrots got embedded in my ceiling like icicles! I was lucky only one onion managed to whack my face! it was a mouthful

What is a WMD?
