FOR REASONS OF NATIONAL SECURITY, YOU MUST READ THIS AGAIN: Is the 2006 jihadist diagram of a cyanide bomb inspired by the photograph of the same bomb distributed worldwide in 2006?

Using our official GlobalSecurity.Org Senior Fellow thinking-cap, we were astonished that no one saw fit to answer the question posed in the blog entry from the 12th, Improvised Cyanide Bomb, Part II.

And the question is this: Did the photograph and memo (pictured in the article on 12th and discussed in depth of the 27th of June here) describing the US-made prototype of an improvised cyanide munition spawn, directly or indirectly, the diagram of a jihadist improvised cyanide bomb distributed in 2006?

This is important gentle readers because we now know that in a surprising number of cases, terrorists have been inspired and motivated to obtain chemical and biological weapons by materials published in the American press and literature.

So we now ask the security-minded among you to return to the original article and review the photograph and diagram of the same weapon, separated by three years. And then ponder the question: Are we, if even only in part, making our own nightmares?
