WMD is, as I understand it, a term of art. It doesn't include "a conventional explosive that can kill a lot of people." It means a nuclear, biological, or chemical weapon.*
Your rhetorical point is comparable to saying that someone acted in an improper way, therefore it was "malicious," and therefore the "malice" element of a cause of action was satisfied. (Actual quote from a judge in a case I had a long time ago on this very point: "I don't think that that word means what you think it means.")

Things would be a lot clearer if they still used the NBC acronym, but I guess GE ("we bring good things to life") wasn't too happy about it.
