That's an extremely mild response for a WMD. They can bomb the shit out of anyone anywhere at any time and just say they suspected they might be smuggling fentanyl. This is really just carte blanche to murder people at will.

Also attacking or invading other countries is absolutely on the cards, as long as the body of evidence for WMDs is on a par with what was used to invade Iraq.
