Oh, my god.

How many dead?
Bill Cabot:
Best guess... 80%.
Becker:
Which means Nemerov just launched the most massive attack in the history of chemical warfare.
President Robert Fowler:
Let's talk response.
Secretary of State Sidney Owens:
Worst thing we could do is nothing.
Becker:
I agree. If we let him get away with chemical weapons, what's next? Biological, nuclear?
President Robert Fowler:
Okay. Short of gassing the Kremlin, what's the strongest response we can make?
Secretary of State Sidney Owens:
We send in peacekeepers.
Becker:
Chechnya's not sovereign.
Secretary of State Sidney Owens:
Look, they requested recognition, so we recognize them. Not full diplomatic recognition; provisional. That may get the Chechens to request emergency international assistance, and we send in peacekeepers.
President Robert Fowler:
How do you get 'em in there?
General Lasseter:
The fastest way would be to fly 'em in from Turkey.
Becker:
Over Armenian airspace?
Revell:
To screw Russia, they won't complain.

At approximately 0600, Moscow time,
the Russians launched a massive
artillery strike against Grozny,
the capital of Chechnya.
The shells contained
an experimental chemical weapon
known as
the Novichok binary nerve agent.
Saturation, you can see it on those
infrared sat photos, took 20 minutes.
After which, every man,
woman and child
inside a radius of roughly 1 2 miles
was rendered helpless
by symptoms approximating
acute, late-stage cerebral palsy.
Oh, my God.
How many dead?
Best guess, 80%.
Which means Nemerov just launched
the most massive attack
in the history of chemical warfare.
Let's talk response.
-Worst thing we could do is nothing.
-l agree.
lf you let him get away with
chemical weapons, what's next?
Biological? Nuclear?
Okay.
Short of gassing the Kremlin, what's
the strongest response we can make?
-We send in peacekeepers.
-Chechnya's not sovereign.
Look, they requested recognition,
so we recognize them.
Not full diplomatic recognition.
Provisional.
Then we get the Chechens to request
emergency international assistance,
and we send in peacekeepers.
How do you get them in there?
The fastest way would be
to fly them in from Turkey.
Over Armenian airspace?
To screw Russia, they won't complain.
Let's do it.
Nemerov can choke on it.
Bill?
-Dr. Ryan.
-Yes, sir.
What do you think?
Mr. President,
conventional wisdom would suggest
that Nemerov is playing
the traditional Russian role,
"Be aggressive, flex your muscles,
dare the world to stop you."
But Nemerov isn't conventional.
He walks like a hard-liner.
He talks like a hard-liner.
Yes, but with all due respect,
l don't think he is one.
He just gassed the capital
of another country, Doctor.
With all due respect, you're wrong.
So what are we wasting our time for?
What if he didn't order the attack?
What if Nemerov didn't order
the attack?
What if it was a rogue general
or a splinter military unit
frustrated they couldn't get
the rest of the rebels out of the city?
Have you any reason to believe
he didn't order it,
or are you just floating this?
You don't know.
l don't think he did it, sir.
l would bet he didn't do it.
lf l could ask senior staff to remain
behind for a few minutes, please.
I'm sorry, Roger, we're going
to have to interrupt you right now,
because we're going back to Moscow
where Russia's newly
installed president, Alexander Nemerov,
has just begun to address the state.
We join him in progress.
For 10 years now, we have contended...
Excuse me, sir.
Would you mind turning that up
just a little?
...toward innocent Russian citizens.
Finally, every nation has a right
to defend itself.
