    As @gktscrk says, pls expand on the "warfare" term, kind of damage, time frame. Hard data that can be addressed in an answer without speculation and without having people watch questionable news items or read fantasy figures. Analyses, actual threat (bacteria carried, spaceweed of destruction ;-)), and why someone would use such a fox-news friendly distribution method. The trivial answer "no" because it makes no sense. Invasive plants are everywhere. Voting to close. Commented Jul 29, 2020 at 13:07

    This question is amazing. It's absolutely barmy, but just realistic enough to be thought provoking - more ridiculous weapons of war have been considered, such as gigantic orbiting sun mirrors to fry the earth, and mind controlled squid. If no answer here, try gardening stack. Commented Jul 29, 2020 at 15:31

    The fundamental problem with "invasive plant warfare" would seem to be knowing ahead of time whether a given plant is going to be invasive. E.g. I have garden full of ornamental plants, most of which are not native to my area. None are invasive: some need a good deal of pampering to survive. Commented Jul 29, 2020 at 17:51

    Came here expecting a comment or answer about kudzu but was disappointed. Commented Jul 29, 2020 at 21:24

    I think it may be worth removing the Fox News article from your question, or at least de-emphasising it, because its presence appears to have become a major distraction. I'd personally remove the entire "updates from comments" section, as they mostly address the link and not your actual question, and roll back to the very first revision.
