Al Qaeda Planned to Use Cyanide, Ricin

According to a letter taken from Osama bin Laden’s compound and released by the U.S. on Wednesday, al Qaeda said it planned to use cyanide and ricin in terrorist attacks. “A few grams of cyanide (easily manufactured and sold by the kilo in third world countries) or ricin diluted in water and injected randomly in anything ingested on super markets shelves, picnics, restaurants etc [...] are just examples of what multinational Terror Franchises need to disseminate NONSTOP, UNPREDICTED, INVISIBLE SUDDEN DEATH,” a document said. It includes a terrorist wishlist including explosives, toxic agents, electronics, and more. The author is believed to be Abu Hafez, the leader of al Qaeda’s external special ops.
