Special Atomic Demolition Munition (SADM)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special...ition_Munition


This little guy was developed in the 1950's in the US with 1950's technology. The technical know how is floating out there all over the place. The material is out there all over the place. (Mostly thanks to the Reds, but also from some other folks, US, France, India, etc) How many nation-states, organizations, backyard workshops all have access to at minimum, the equivalent of US Gov 1950's style tech and equipment? (Hell, some of our membership have the equivalent in their own workshops.... Kazoo!!!) Let alone what are the powers that be capable of creating using more modern tech?A small yield device may not destroy a whole lot, or even make very many people sick. But it would result in a large area denial situation. How many blocks of a major city would be cordoned off permanently as a result of the contamination? Also what would be the ramifications of the panic one of these little guys would create? Public panic, legislative panic (The Patriot Act would seem like nothing compared to what they would draft after a stateside incident) Make no mistake my friends, the world continues to be a scary place.

Although the "Great Uniter" has done great strides in letting everyone know that America is sorry and we want to make up with everybody. With the jobs situation now fixed, healthcare now fixed, the economy now fixed etc, etc, it won't be long now until everyone beats their swords into plowshares and we all hold hands singing Kumbaya. Forget what I said, it's all good.
