Chemical Warfare Defense Doctrine -- An Overreaction to a Perceived Threat
[ send me this paper ]
This
10 page report discusses the possibility that fears about massive biological and chemical
attacks against the United States are actually the result of media and government-inspired
paranoia. The problem has been that the U.S. military, the country’s policy-makers and
politicians, as well as the media have over-emphasized a threat that many (other) experts
believe has been blown way out of proportion to the reality of the threat. The government
and the military must make every effort to develop a more rational approach regarding
defense in relationship to possible chemical warfare that is fully grounded in sound
research and public information efforts. Bibliography lists 10 sources.
