What is this world coming to? bombs can now be made with table sugar. the thought is scary how easily something so deadly can be made. its funny since we have been talking about bombs in class lately and the documentary in the Gaza Strip had lots of information about bombs and how they dispose of them. the Syrians making homemade bombs like this will mean an increase in the amount of bombs. the man who makes the bombs believes he doesn't have a choice but to make them since he lives in fear all the time. this is sad because we don't realize how lucky we are they we can get up and go places with minimal fear while people on the other side of the world are making bombs for protection. the rocket he made has a range of 12 km. which is insane to even think about considering its made from sugar. his assistant was killed while experimenting, so he now works alone. hopefully these bombs will only be used when necessary.
