Nuclear optimism

Biological and Chemical weapons if in the wrong hands can be just as destructive as nuclear weapons. Biological warfare is the use of any organism to harm or kill any population or area.

What is a catapult? A catapult is a device that hurls an object some distance. There are many different types of catapults in the world, but some are used more than others.
