America and Unconventional weapons

OK...Seriously...humour is good but even it must have limits. Anyway I was(am still at the time of writing) searching for materials for my Special Study Module(SSM) under the key word 'unconventional weapons' when I came across this really funny article:

Panel Fears Use of Unconventional Weapon
WASHINGTON — An independent commission has concluded that terrorists will most likely carry out an attack with biological, nuclear or other unconventional weapons somewhere in the world in the next five years unless the United States and its allies act urgently to prevent that.
In a report to be released this week, the Congressionally mandated panel found that with countries like Iran and North Korea pursuing nuclear weapons programs, and with the risk of poorly secured biological pathogens growing, unconventional threats are fast outpacing the defenses arrayed to confront them.
“America’s margin of safety is shrinking, not growing,” the bipartisan panel concluded.
...
“Unless the world community acts decisively and with great urgency, it is more likely than not that a weapon of mass destruction will be used in a terrorist attack somewhere in the world by the end of 2013,” the report states in the opening sentence of the executive summary.
...
Several of the recommendations are not new and have been pursued with varying degrees of success by the Bush administration. On Pakistan, for example, the panel urges the Obama administration to work with Pakistan to eliminate that country’s terrorist havens, secure its nuclear and biological materials, counter extremist ideologies and constrain a “nascent nuclear arms race in Asia.”
...
The commission urges the Obama administration to work to halt the Iranian and North Korean nuclear weapons programs, backing up any diplomatic initiatives with “the credible threat of direct action” — code for military action, a commission official said.
...
The commission also criticized the administration and Congress for not organizing themselves more effectively to combat the threat of unconventional weapons. The report recommended a single White House-level office or individual responsible for directing the nation’s policy to prevent the spread of unconventional weapons and their possible use by terrorists.

Like the 9/11 Commission, this panel called for overhauling the jurisdiction of the Congressional committee that reviews the proliferation of unconventional weapons. “Congressional oversight is dysfunctional,” the report concluded.

Now compare what you've read above with this:
"The Israelis are using a new type of very high explosive weapons which are called Dense Inert Metal Explosive (DIME) and are made out of a tungsten alloy. These weapons have an enormous power to explode."

"these weapons will have a cancer effect on those who survive. They will develop cancer we suspect."
"All that is happening in Gaza here now is against international law, it is against humanity"
"Almost all of the patients we have received have these sever amputations. They seem to have been affected by this kind of weapon. Of course, we have many fragment injuries and burns but those who have got their limbs cut off, constitutes quite a large proportion.
You know we have a lot to do. Palestinian doctors, nurses and paramedics do an incredibly heroic job to save their people. Doctor Eric and I are just a small drip in the ocean, but we learn from them." And then decide where do you stand.
We stand with the people of Palestine whose lives are being destroyed. We stand in solidarity with their struggle.
We stand for humanity against the US-Israeli war criminals.

Well so much for america getting rid of UNCONVENTIONAL WEAPONS.
But seriously...from the advocator of PEACE(?) and the hero of ridding the world of unconventional weapons(?) to the PERPETRATOR and ACCOMPLICE of WAR CRIMES using those very weapons they (supposedly) want to protect humanity against. The world can really turn upside down.
“America’s margin of safety is shrinking, not growing.”
Hmm...America might want to reconsider helping the Israeli zionists out.
After all...to them, gentiles are still gentiles (heck even their own Jewish brothers that don't help out have their lives forfeit)...and gentiles are just worthless dogs.
America's margin of safety keeps shrinking...
Though maybe from a whole other direction.
