  9. Anthrax • The Threat • U.S. intelligence agencies assess that a large-scale aerosol release of anthrax is “well within the technical capability of al-Qa’ida and other foreign or domestic terrorist organizations.” • Our Vulnerability • Bacillus anthracis can be grown in a relatively simple laboratory setup using basic microbiology techniques. Aerial dispersion of anthrax over a large geographic area can be accomplished with commercially-available equipment.

  10. At Risk “…it is more likely than not that a weapon of mass destruction (WMD) will be used in a terrorist attack somewhere in the world by the end of 2013. That weapon is more likely to be biological than nuclear.” The Commission on the Prevention of Weapons of Mass Destruction Proliferation and Terrorism. World at Risk. December 2, 2008. http://www.preventwmd.gov/report. Page: XV. Accessed May 2, 2010.
