"The possibility that terrorist groups could obtain weapons……" — Ban Ki-moon
"The possibility that terrorist groups could obtain weapons of mass destruction should not be dismissed as a fiction. This is a horrific threat the international community should take seriously. As long as these weapons exist, so, too, does the risk of their use - by accident or design."
