More than 2000 years ago scorpion bombs were used by Iraqi’a against the Romans and now IS militants are allegedly using them against their targets as well. When I first heard the story I immediately assumed scorpions would die in a bomb blast however, The UK Daily Mail reports,

Hamish de Bretton-Gordon, ex-head of chemical and biological weapons for the Army and Nato, told The Mirror that ISIS had improvised devices to launch the poisonous creatures in 2ft bombs.

He said: ’Scorpions are robust – even if they are launched a couple of miles, when the canister breaks thousands are flung out and start crawling all around.

Imagine thousands of scorpions raining down on a populated area. The idea is to create fear and panic, and it would. Many of the scorpions used are  allegedly poisonous, but the bigger danger would be from the ensuing chaos.
