These are indiscriminate weapons which can easily wind up killing people who are not even involved in the conflict in question, and which can get out of control. An infectious disease could become established in the population and could continue to cause sickness and death even thousands of years beyond the time of the conflict in which it was released as a weapon. This is a crime against humanity. And poison gas blows away on the wind, and you really don't know where it is going to end up. It is also a horrible and cruel weapon. People exposed to phosgene in WW I never regained the ability to breathe normally. Bullets, at least, can be aimed at specific people, and probably won't cause a horrible, lingering death (although sometimes they do). War is not very nice.

It was Libya. They had been seeking, but had not obtained nuclear weapons. They also agreed to give up chemical weapons of mass destruction. However, 10 years later, they are still holding 800 tons of chemical weapons- "waiting destruction". Right. Sure.

It's not so much that anyone agreed with Al Gore, the ideas were not his. He was simply stating the position taken by the majority of scientists working on the issue of Global Climate Change. 163 nations have ratified the Kyoto Protocol (This is about 92% of the nations.) Nations signing the Protocol, by definition, believe there is a Global Climate Change issue and want to do something about it
The member nations of NATO agreed to come to the aid of any country that was under attack.
