THIS IS NOT A REAL HEADLINE, THIS IS A BUNCH OF HEXBEAR BITS COBBLED TOGETHER FOR A LAUGH. I REFUSE TO BELIEVE MY LYING EYES OTHERWISE
I believe this means the US developed fentanyl-based weapons for some reason and needs to blame Iran for doing it first.
Don't know if you were alive for the Iraq War, but way too many people I'm sure.
Another day at the consent factory. Are they doing "WMDs" again? Has this show up anywhere else?
Iran may have
there are reports that pro-Iranian militias in Iraq may have
evidence suggests Iran is
Israel feared that Hezbollah would
This article is based on another written by Matthew Levitt for the Combatting Terrorism Center at West Point (Tehran’s Tactical Knockout: Weaponized Pharmaceutical-Based Agents), is it possible there is a bias?
Just like chuds harping on about how deadly fentanyl is so police need to shoot drug dealers, this sounds like an excellent angle to make up to generate support for a war against Iran.
These articles exist to form word association between one hated thing and a geopolitical rival. Super effective on anyone who lost loved ones to fent
Buncha pigs gonna spontaneously overdose reading the word "fentanyl" in the title
Business insider doing accidental praxis.
Trying to build a new WMDs excuse because they know Iran doesn't have a nuke.
Iran isn't stupid enough to try and use fent as a bio-weapon. I don't think the writer even knows what the fuck it is. I smell that shit every other day at work. It's nasty and makes my respiratory system want to expel everything inside, but outside of a small enclosed area like a bathroom, it's not gonna do anything.
i mean you can pump a shitton through a building's ventilation system but i sure hope if Iran has cooked up a version of that, it works better. "bio-weapon" would be a perfectly orwellian description though, right? developing this thing to try to kill less people in hostage situations-->weapons of mass destruction
e: also you're allowed to use chemical weapons just not against a uniformed legal combatant under the geneva conventions, @ tear gas
They don't have to, cops od on fent if they suspect they see white powder (or if they want some time off without using their pto)
If I were killed by one of these I couldn't even be mad. Just fade away blasted as hell knowing Iran is kicking Amerikkkas ass sounds like a vibe to me.
I swear there was a cop show that had fent penetrate the skin years ago. I think blue bloods or something.
wtf? This isn't real. Fent, despite the cop panic, doesn't cross the skin. If you're already shooting it into someone or aerasolising it you can just use more effective things like nerve agents. You're breaking the same treaties and doing the same warcrimes either way.
Oh duh, patches. So yeah fentanyl that is capable of passing the skin barrier is real.
I'm not actually sure what the mechanism behind the patches is. Whether they are microneedle or if they use an oily adhesive that modifies skin permiability.
I will note it is extremely slow, like it takes hours to reach steady state slow.
Again, if you are capable of aerasolising a substance such that you can reliably coat someone in it, and you are willing to break chemical weapons treaties, and you love warcrimes you can just use something more effective.
It is absolutely trivial to block the action of an opiate, they're just not effective indiscriminate murder drugs.
Breaking: Iranian scientists have developed multiclassing thus allowing soldiers to use poison attacks
for cops
