#3 I hope ever so much that the Peshmurga sets up a vicious ambush (with help) to send a message to Iran. Only a handful of Iranians should survive to return to their country and tell the tale.

#5 OldSpook: I was thinking more along the lines of an air-fuel explosive like the BLU-96 2,000 pounder.

The Russians had a neat one they used in Afghanistan called "black rain". It was a thin liquid sprayed in droplets by helicopter. Once it dried it became a hard, tar-like substance that would ignite if you walked or drove over it, then stick and burn.

#6 Probably a realtor.

They used to call it "blockbusting".

#7 Black Rain/Red Mercury supposedly caused the Siberian Crater, the Czarist Precursor to the KGB were tipped to all sorts of wild and crazy stuff, including No-Crop-Circles and the whereabouts of Ambrose Bierce.
