Throughout that time, the Chemical Corps approached the CBRN problem as it had for the past 100 years—avoid, protect, and decontaminate. These three insular capability areas provided a linear approach to detect existing hazards and offered a bypass of CBRN obstacles to enable the safe passage of forces. The approach to the CBRN program remained resistant to change, yet it ignored new forms of battle being exercised and conducted by major regional players (Russia, China, Iran, North Korea). The proliferation of new technologies, to include weapons of mass destruction (WMD) capabilities and materials, will remain a constant during the next 100 years. The Chemical Corps, in conjunction with the Army and joint force, must adapt and prepare for CBRN usage throughout the range of military operations. The Chemical Corps exists to enable movement and maneuver to conduct large-scale ground combat operations in a CBRN environment. Friendly forces must retain freedom of action and be capable of employing the full breadth of capabilities within complex battlefield conditions, including CBRN environments. The latest addition of FM 3-0 and the Army concept of multidomain operations outline the essential elements for success against peer and near-peer adversaries. FM 3-11 is the answer to FM 3-0’s requirement to adapt and to overcome in the plausibility of enemy CBRN usage to create conditions of overmatch. To support multidomain operations, the Army CBRN Regiment must be agile and adaptive, capable of employing its full capabilities to enable the Army to win in a complex CBRN environment. It is essential that U.S. forces build and maintain operational readiness whilst restoring CBRN mastery at tactical and operational levels of war. CBRN must be integrated into all training facets as a condition on the battlefield that the enemy will leverage to establish and maintain a position of relative advantage. FM 3-11 provides a thorough doctrinal approach for the tactical and operational levels of war to provide tailorable, scalable CBRN capabilities across operations. It acknowledges that CBRN units must be integrated at multiple tactical and operational headquarters to enhance their capabilities to counter WMD and retain operational flexibility. Most importantly, it transforms the CBRN enterprise to being offensive and proactive, interdicting CBRN before employment rather than simply practicing avoidance. The time has come to make CBRN integration into training a priority for every leader. Building agile and adaptive leaders who can win means forcing them to adapt to the complex rigors of a CBRN environment that provides a substantial advantage to threat forces. FM 3-11 provides leaders and staffs the ability to incorporate CBRN units into their formations and to defeat the enemies’ ability to use CBRN hazards effectively in large-scale ground combat.

  • Radiological Terrorism
    Human and Ecological Risk Assessment, 11: 501–523, 2005 Copyright C Taylor & Francis Inc. ISSN: 1080-7039 print / 1549-7680 online DOI: 10.1080/10807030590949618 Radiological Terrorism P. Andrew Karam Department of Biological Sciences, Rochester Institute of Technology, Rochester, New York, USA ABSTRACT We run the risk that terrorists will decide to detonate an explosive device laced with radioactive materials (a radiological dispersal device, or RDD). If such an attack occurs, it is unlikely that the affected population or emergency responders would be exposed to high levels of external radiation, although airborne radionuclides may present a health risk under some circumstances. However, the effects of radia- tion and radioactivity are not well known among the general population, emergency responders, or medical personnel. This could lead to unwarranted panic, refusal to respond to the incident, inappropriately delaying or denying treatment to in- jured victims, and other unfortunate reactions during the emergency phase of any response. During the recovery phase, current regulations may lead to costly and restrictive radiation safety requirements over very large areas, although there have been recent efforts to relax some of these regulations in the first year following a radiological attack. The wide spread of radioactive contamination can also lead to environmental contamination, particularly in low-flow areas and near storm sewer discharge points, but the total radiation dose to the environment should not be excessively high in most locations. Key Words: RDD, dirty bomb, radiation, radiation health effects, terrorism, nu- clear weapons, radiological weapons. INTRODUCTION Since June 2002 we have become aware of the arrest of a suspected radiologi- cal terrorist (e.g., Warrington 2002), al Qaeda plans for constructing radiological weapons (El Baradei 2003), and the availability of large numbers (probably over 100,000) of “orphaned” radioactive sources in the world, thousands of which are sufficiently strong to cause harm (Gonzalez 2004).

  • Iran, DAESH & the Rising Specter of Radiological
    JULY 2015 Iran, DAESH & the Rising Specter of Radiological Warfare in the Middle East By John R. Haines John R. Haines is a Senior Fellow of the Foreign Policy Research Institute and Executive Director of FPRI's Princeton Committee. Much of his current research is focused on Russia and its near abroad, with a special interest in nationalist and separatist movements. As a private investor and entrepreneur, he is currently focused on the question of nuclear smuggling and terrorism, and the development of technologies to discover, detect, and characterize concealed fissile material. He is also a Trustee of FPRI. The official silence on radiological warfare probably is expressive of classification rather than disinterest.1 Louis Ridenour (1949) Ironically, in the post-cold war world, one of the safest places for plutonium may well be on top of a missile.2 Paul Woessner & Phil Williams (1996) Among the several argued deficiencies of the nuclear agreement between the P5+1 and Iran, the most abject is perhaps also the least discussed—the consummate failure to address radiological weapons. The use of radiological weapons has been called the “poor man’s nuclear warfare.”3 So it may come as a surprise that the international community has never negotiated a treaty prohibiting radiological weapons, this despite their definition as a “weapon of mass destruction” (WMD) by the United Nations and the United States, among others. This essay takes on the grim subject of radiological weapons, perhaps the most vilified of an already-vilified class of weapons. That term—WMD—is a misnomer when applied to radiological weapons, however, as their effect is more likely localized, ephemeral and disruptive rather than destructive on a mass scale.

INTRODUCTION A s the concluding speaker at the conference on “Cyber War and Inter- national Law,” co-sponsored by the Naval War College and the United States Cyber Command, Yoram Dinstein, Professor Emeritus at Tel Aviv University, professed some disappointment that there had not been a more extensive and sharper focus at the conference on “war.”1 But perhaps the limited amount of discussion of cyber “war” at the conference was a result of the reality that the international law issues arising from the possibility of war or armed conflict through cyber means have not been the primary concern of States and scholars faced with the challenges of the cyber threat.
