#1 So dozens of the European and Australians got away scott free, but three Palestinians are in custody?

Oh, the irony!

#2 Now I know the Dubai releases on this gig are phony.

Succinylcholine oxidizes rapidly and is undetectable in the body less than one hour after injection.

I'm distressed to hear that he wasn't beheaded alive and videotaped for recruiting purposes...now THAT would have been IRONY.

#3 Succinylchorine in powder form. Place directly over nose and mouth and continue to breath normally. Thank you Glaxo Wellcome.

#4 Succinylcholine oxidizes rapidly and is undetectable in the body less than one hour after injection.

What if the person dies? Does the body continue to metabolize Succinylcholine?

#5 The action profile of succinylcholine is unmatched even 50 years after its introduction into anaesthestic practice. This is probably why succinylcholine, despite its many and partly life-threatening side-effects, is still considered to be indispensable by many anaesthetists and emergency doctors. The main indication for succinylcholine--the facilitation of endotracheal intubation in patients considered to be at an increased risk of aspiration of gastric fluid, e.g. patients undergoing a Caesarean section or presenting with an ileus--remains undisputed. Some of the side-effects of succinylcholine can be diminished by precurarisation. However, just like priming, this technique holds some considerable dangers (such as a clinically significant attenuation of the protective reflexes) and has become a matter of increasing controversy. Rocuronium (> or = 1 mg/kg) is currently the best alternative to succinylcholine for rapid sequence induction. The routine use of succinylcholine as a relaxant for intubation is questionable, mainly because there are a number of modern anaesthetic techniques (laryngeal mask airway) and new drugs (rocuronium, mivacurium, remifentanil) which make succinylcholine quite dispensable except for a few situations (e.g. re-positioning of fractures). In the case of an expected difficult airway no muscle relaxant should be given, because severe hypoxaemia in these patients probably can only be prevented by a professional airway management. Succinylcholine is no longer an option in elective paediatric anaesthesia. The drug, however, retains its value in critical situations where a rapid onset but a short duration of action is of prime importance.

#6 Hotspur - good info, but you should at least link the source as a courtesy :-)

#8 Succinylchoine is a paralytic, but not a sedative. Thus, unable to move or breathe, but fully conscious.

#9 PAKISTANI DEFENCE FORUM > [Dubai Assassination]BRITAIN'S MI6 MAY HAVE COLLUDED WID MOSSAD.

* WMF > PLA SPECOPS EXPERT: DUBAI ASSASSINATION SHOWS THREE CAUSES OF CONCERN FOR WORLD INTELLIDENCE SERVICES.

To wit,

* LACK OF RECRUITS forcing FOREIGN INTEL SVCS to go outside their Agencies + National Govts to enable andor accomplish VITAL INTEL ACTIVITIES.

* TRADITIONAL = CLASSIC NUMINT METHODS COMPETING WID SIGNIFICANT, CHEAPER CHANGES IN HIGH TECHNOLOGIES e.g. Dubai hotel's ultra-modern CAMERA MONITORING SYS.

IOW, "FRANCHISING" > ITS NOT JUST FOR NUKES-HAPPY/SEARCHING ISLAMIST MILTERRS + IRAN ANYMORE!?

* "VALID/LEGITIMATE FOREIGN PASSPORTS" > i.e. alleged "Valid/Legit" UK Passports used by alleged MOSSAD HIT TEAMS = POTENTIAL FOR SERIOUS, UNRECOEVRABLE HARM TO INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS + GEOPOL SECURITY.

#10 Lack of recruits is not an issue for the Mossad just now, JosephM. They've been swamped with applicants since the news came out.
