Watch out for people carrying coffee cans!

According to Northeast intelligence Network who is monitoring web post and forums used by al Qa'ida sympathisers they are now posting explicit details on how to build cyanide bombs made of chemicals you can purchase at the local wal-mart and then use in a similar fashion as one would toss a molotov cocktail.

www.homelandsecurityus.com...
The directions say to throw the darned thing and when it hits the ground the glass will break, and the chemicals will mix, triggering the reaction that produces the poson gas

Since the document specifies the use of a 2 kilogram coffee can or a milk can, we do urge our readers to be on the lookout for anything meeting this description.

thats absurd, from Wal-Mart? id be scared if i didnt no better. i no better.
pity i cant read the damn thing, thatd be awesome. not the cyanide bit, but what u cud do with it, such as make explosives!

ignore me, i like fire.

I be on the lookout for old ladies with Folgers cans (wink).

That's just nuts.
Scary, really.
Scary that people are going to look at this like the whole duct tape thing.

So if a person is seen on the sidewalk of a major city carrying a coffee can or a milk jug one should do what???

Run like hell?

Any attempt to disarm the Coffee-Can Terrorist might result in a dropped can and the subsequent release of toxins....

Note to self: Avoid coffee isle at Shoprite.

I thought there would be some humorous answers to this post, the one about SOs avatar left me LMAO

Just so you know, there are tons of explosives, and bio agents one can make from ordinary household items, were one so inclined...just read the Anarchist's Cookbook...or the little CIA Black Book....

fan-fckin-tastic.

Just go to your local farmers market

DISCLAIMER---LINKS ARE FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY--
"Cyanide is commonly thought of as a gas, but you also can be poisoned by it if you ingest wild cherry syrup, prussic acid, bitter almond oil, or large amounts of apricot pits. Cherry seeds, peach and plum pits, corn, chickpeas, cashews, and some other fruits and vegetables contain cyanogenic (i.e., cyanide-forming) glycosides (such as amygdalin) that release hydrogen cyanide when chewed or digested. As a result, some cyanide can also be found in fruit jams that contain these pit and pip extracts, such as quince. However, since the concentration of cyanide in these compounds is small, accidental cyanide poisoning from a food source is rare. But, if the correct materials are deliberately concentrated it can make an effective poison, as the Romans and Egyptians knew. They used to grind up peach kernels to make poisons."

I wasn't implying that it is easy...but it could be done, using available materials...
Got a dog? Go pour bleach on top of his favorite pee spot...see that gas? Chlorine Gas...deadly stuff man...
And no I am not implying that we watch for people carrying bleach bottles and walking their dog. Most people are not aware of the small chemical arsenal they have under their own kitchen sink
