The nerve gas attack in the Tokyo subway underscores the extreme vulnerability of urban society to terrorist attacks.

If the 1993 Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC) were in force, all 159 signatories would be required to have such laws. The author examies the threat and provides some political insights.
