Description - America's Achilles' Heel by Richard A Falkenrath
Nuclear, biological and chemical (NBC) weapons delivered covertly by terrorists or hostile governments pose a significant and growing threat to the United States and other countries. Covert attack is hard to deter or prevent, and NBC weapons suitable for covert attack are available to a growing range of states and groups hostile to the United States. At the same time, constraints on their use appear to be eroding. This volume analyzes the nature and limits of the covert NBC threat and proposes a measured set of policy reponses, focused on improving intelligence and consequence-management to reduce US vulnerability.
