This is a collection of many years worth of effort. This is the original manuscript for a non-published work, from an unknown author. It was originally two LARGE files which had to be merged and then HEAVILY EDITED, mostly the pictures, and then spellchecked. This guy is a chemical genius but he could not spell if his life depended on it. I have simply run a spell check via WordPerfect 4.2, so there are probably more errors which were not picked up, sorry. I hope you have the patience to sit through this file, read it, then correct every little error. It is not like I am submitting it or anything!!!

This file is dedicated To Kathie & KiKi .....Wherever you both may be.....

1.0 INTRODUCTION

Gunzenbomz Pyro-Technologies, a division of Chaos Industries (CHAOS), is proud to present this first edition of The Terrorist's Handbook. First and foremost, let it be stated that Chaos Industries assumes no responsibilities for any misuse of the information presented in this publication. The purpose of this is to show the many techniques and methods used by those people in this and other countries who employ terror as a means to political and social goals. The techniques herein can be obtained from public libraries, and can usually be carried out by a terrorist with minimal equipment. This makes one all the more frightened, since any lunatic or social deviant could obtain this information, and use it against anyone. The processes and techniques herein SHOULD NOT BE CARRIED OUT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES!! serious harm or death could occur from attempting to perform any of the methods in this publication. This is merely for reading enjoyment, and is not intended for actual use!!

Gunzenbomz Pyro-Technologies feels that it is important that everyone has some idea of just how easy it is for a terrorist to perform acts of terror; that is the reason for the existence of this publication.
