QUESTION: Based on what you’ve learned so far, are biological weapons more, or less dangerous than nuclear weapons:
1) In terms of their overall destructiveness/lethality;
2) In terms of their likelihood of acquisition by:
a. States;
b. Nonstate actors;
3) In terms of the likelihood of use (Hint: Think McIntosh) by 2a and 2b;
4) Overall?
Your assignment should be no more than about 800 words (there is no minimum), and appropriately cite sources. You don’t need a long introduction;
just jump straight into answering the brief.
