This Story - I would be surprised if you still found your comment to be true. It is the same story from my original post, but it is an excellent example as to the "security" & "fail safes" in modern chemical plants.
As far as nuclear, biological, and chemical weapons - Both Biological and Chemical weapons are more useful in inducing panic and causing terror than actually killing people in mass quantities. Nuclear weapons, however, are a different story.

Onetime2 - I am not claiming to know what the terrorists goals are or aren't, I simply started this thread to begin a discussion about it. If I was 100% sure that I was wrong or right, I certainly wouldn't need to re-affirm my correctness, and even if I did, I certainly wouldn't put it in the Politics Forum...
I am believe however, that the terrorists, or anyone for that matter, could certainly kill many more people if that was their sole purpose was to kill as many civilians as possible.
