A Better Definition of WMD

I was watching the POTUS address the UN this morning and he mentioned "Weapons of Mass Murder".

I am so glad he got away from the term "Mass Destruction". I never thought that the term was appropriate. The more insidious weapons are chemical and biological which kill without destroying structures or equipment. I always thought that "WMD" were better defined as "Weapons of Mass Death".

I hope it sticks.

Another interesting thing he mentioned was that more than 150 nations have sent aid to the Katrina AO. That's considerably more than the conservative media reported.
