11. I never figured out how taggants would help. Can you enlighten me?
Okay, I can kinda understand the concept: every explosives manufacturer and every maker of ammonium nitrate would put a unique combination of chemicals into his product. This way, you know the manufacturer of the agents used.

But if Joe Terrorist comes up with some Gulf explosives and blows up a school with them, what do you know? That Gulf explosives blew up the school. Which is something a well-equipped bomb squad could figure out without any taggants.
