WMD Commission Releases “World at Risk” Report
On December 3, 2008, the bipartisan Commission on the Prevention of Weapons of Mass Destruction Proliferation and Terrorism released its “World at Risk” report. This report predicted a high risk of a major terrorist nuclear or biological attack by 2012. The Commission members explained that the risk of such attacks is increasing because Al Qaeda and other terrorists have demonstrated continued interest in using such weapons of mass destruction and could try to hire rogue scientists.
