 C-4(explosive)   | |
|---|---|
| The most powerful non-nuclear explosive, supposedly very tightly controlled. However, in 1982 a log time CIA operative exported 20 tons, almost the entire US domestic stockpile, to Libya, and trained Muammar Gaddafi's forces how to use it for bomb making. |
2 pounds is sufficient to destroy a jet plane.[1]
Distribution to terrorists
CIA operative Edwin P. Wilson shipped 20 tonnes of C-4 to Libya in 1982, with the knowledge of the CIA - although they initially denied this when his case came to trial.[2]
Use by terrorists
The initial story of 7/7 suggested that C-4 was used, but this was swiftly changed.[3]
