Hydrogen Peroxide in the news

{I hope I don't get in trouble for this post. I didn't intend to raise alarms.]

One of the "chemicals" that the purported airliner terrorists were going to use was our favorite, good old Hydrogen Peroxide.

I have no clue as to how it would be used to make an explosion, but it can be rocket fuel so I guess there is a way.

Of course, the way WE use it, it is far too diluted to be of any violent purpose. But we do start with concentrated H2O2, up to 35%. I think the terrorists need it even more concentrated than that, but it cannot just be "boiled down", there is a process for doing that.

My concern of course is that the authorities will use this scenario to outlaw H2O2. That would be like outlawing water because it is part of some plan to do damage. A lot like that.

The 35% H2O2 (Hydrogen-Peroxid) may not be available soon if thats the case...

Another concern is that thru internet tracking, they may round up everyone who has mentioned H2O2, or has said we have some in our possession. The Homeland Security authorities can, I believe, find out who posts what, but as long as it is about a health concern, we are okay I think. No associations with violent groups will go a long way to ensuring you are not a suspect, so just live well and morally and things will be fine, carry on as usual.

This world is gone overboard with the war on terrorism. Bush has only served their purposes by making everyone nuts with fear and now there is the revenge factor due to the abuses of the west on Arabs too. Now we are seeing a potential for the war on Terrorism to reach out and touch our Peroxide.

They already say Ozone is a pollutant, so is H2O2 (Hydrogen-Peroxid) as a weapon may be next...
