Uh-oh. With all the botox in that mug of Nancy Pelosi's she could be classified as a weapon of mass destruction.
<---- Botox gone bad.
From the Times of India:
Terrorists are exploiting a surging black market for the popular anti-wrinkle drug botox to develop bioterrorism weapons, experts say.
Al-Qaida is known to be seeking the deadly botulinum toxin that comprises the active ingredient in botox, and officials say they believe terrorists in Chechnya and elsewhere have established illegal factories to churn out the raw toxin, the Washington Post reported.
Kenneth Coleman, a biodefense expert, said his probe hints that a biologist of modest means and education can easily tap the counterfeit botox market to manufacture 1g of pure toxin, which would be sufficient to kill thousands of people.
The black market for botox has spawned illicit networks of suppliers who mostly work online and don't demand prescriptions. "There are no major obstacles," said Coleman, who authored a study for the James Martin Center for Nonproliferation Studies. "It's not hard to get the bacterial strains. But you don't even have to make it. You can buy it from makers to cause widespread harm."

Chechens are fighting for their freedom! They have no factories and no other sources of income!
Chechens, civilians and refugees help rebels with whatever they can because it is a national movement.
Anyways, thanks to this site for raising an issue at least and reminding about Chechens. The site should be brave if it didn't scare of Russian Kremlin to post anything regarding Chechnya.
That is a very disturbing Picture , it kinda makes my skin crawl.
