Weapons

 Weapons –are designed for two purposes: to defeat an adversary or to serve as a deterrent. Throughout history, fists, bullets, spears or bombs, in short, anything which came to hand, has been thrown at opponents. And whoever was in possession of the largest arsenal of the most effective, unusual and innovative weapons generally emerged triumphant. Incidentally, our experts kept quiet about the fact that words can also prove to be an impressive weapon. But then again, it wasn't peace talks they were discussing but The Greatest Ever…Weapons.
Decide for yourself which weapon you would hide under your pillow at night – only as a deterrent, of course.
