Um. It has been exaggerated. Watch your local news for three nights. Odds are that at least one of those nights you'll get to see a story about what terrorists can potentially do in your area to kill you. I just watched a report about the water supply in San Francisco the other day. They didn't cite one source that would link the plan to terrorists. It was just a news report on how to poison the drinking water. It was obviously about ratings and pushing an agenda.

I specificlly said "It's possible. Not probable, but possible." that they have them as a deterrant. I didn't say that my opinion was that they were using them as a deterrant, I simply wasn't going to completly discount the possibility. Jeez. My opinion is that they have been scared shitless for a while, and they are still very desperate. Their econemy is...very bad. Their military is very bad. Their leader might have a napolean complex. It's a very unstable situation, and the fact that they probably have nuclear weapons makes this very delacite. It is likely that KJI is going to try and blackmail us.
