Non-Nuclear WMDs

If at some point in the future Island/Isolated nations Such as the US, Canada, UK, Australia, NZ, and Japan wanted to cripple China, India and various other Eurasian countries. Would the most effective way be the following:

Simultaneous release of biological agents in 10 high-density areas

Using two separate biological agents such as Ebola + Tularemia.

By using two different contagions in the same area treatment becomes almost impossible without identifying the cause - something that would be impossible in a mass casualty event.

Mixture of the two would also boost fatalities as many would become infected with both.

Nerve agent is not functionally WMD because it doesn't actually cause MD. It is so classified to make nuclear reprisal appropriate.

All you need is easily Googled, but of course you suck and aren't seriously interested so you ask /k/ to become /spoonfeed/.

Fentanyl has a lethal dose of about 2mg, something like carfentanil is probably more along the lines of 0.02mg per lethal dose

both of these have excellent transdermal properties and are rather simple to manufacture.

This actually scares the shit out of me. We could be breathing nerve gas and not even realize it.

How do they know what they smell like?
With lethal concentration so low surely they can't smell test them.
Is it just a prediction based on the chemical formula and structure of the impurities?

Look at the years of manufacture and use your imagination. It's kind of like a shit ton of what we know about Chemical/Bio warfare came out of Unit 731 and we also made most our advancements in mental health via MkUltra and like programs.

>Shortly after terrorists struck the United States on Sept. 11, 2001, the search for Osama bin Laden led to the Tora Bora cave complex in eastern Afghanistan.

>While bin Laden wasn't found there, some revealing notes were.

>The scribbled notes showed al-Qaida was considering using rinderpest — a devastating viral animal disease — as a part of a terrorist plot, said Juergen Richt, a zoonotic disease expert at Kansas State University who advises the U.S. Department of Homeland Security on threats to the agriculture supply chain.

God bless it too, my hometown is actually experiencing a dip in crime after a bunch of the junkies went to their reward.

I realize that the purpose of gasses is for area denial, but how would the use of those chemicals not be considered mass destruction since if they get released in a populated area you're guaranteeing the deaths of at least thousands at a time and indiscriminately so at that?

>>34911053
My fists.

Gasses aren't really *for* that. They're for gumming up logistical trains in conventional war.

Because they *could* do that, and are simultaneously misery-inducing and ineffective vs actual NBC-equipped troops, they got labeled that way. Partly from historical inertia, partly because at that point in a cold war fulda gpa scenario, you're sucking enough that tac nukes sound like a cool idea.
