It would seem that some very deep well thought out plans are but a heartbeat away from being unleashed upon we the US and the rest of the world. Kinda throws a monkey wrench into many a response/ survival / retaliation plans so many of have been working on. Be not disheartened we will prevail.

Pentagon Plan Calls for New WMD Task Force: Report
Reuters
Friday 27 January (numerical date typed wrong (extra digit) so left it out)
Washington - The Pentagon's latest strategy review proposes a new military unit that would prevent the transfer of weapons of mass destruction from states such as North Korea and Iran to terrorist groups, The Washington Times reported on Friday.
The WMD task force would be comprised of several hundred troops, including special operations forces and intelligence personnel, the Times said.
The Times said the proposal was included in the Pentagon's 2005 Quadrennial Defense Review, a sweeping assessment of US defense strategy Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld will send to the White House and Congress on February 6.
Portions of an unclassified summary of the document were made available to The Washington Times, the newspaper said.
"A section on combating weapons of mass destruction said future US military forces will have the capability to interdict and 'render safe' weapons of mass destruction before terrorists can use them," the newspaper reported.
A Pentagon spokeswoman had no immediate comment on the report.
The Times said Pentagon spokesman Larry DiRita declined to comment on the strategy review which has not been made public.
"We have over the past few years focused on ways of having a standing and rapidly deployable task force," DiRita was quoted as saying. "It's something that can respond quickly to a tough problem."
The Times said the Pentagon review stated that a core element of the new joint task force would be the Army's 20th Support Command, which would become a rapid deployment unit "to command and control WMD elimination missions by 2007."
"They will possess an expanded ability to locate, tag and track dangerous individuals and other high value targets globally," the review was quoted as saying.
Defense officials this week confirmed the planning document calls for the addition of nearly 8,000 troops to its elite Special Operations Forces next year to bolster the US military's ability to fight terrorists and insurgents worldwide.
