U.S. Biological Weapons- This Program Brought to You By The Pentagon

Mr Dando believes Washington's motive for torpedoing the deal, which had the support of its allies, was to maintain secrecy over US research work on biological weapons. He said that work includes:

· CIA efforts to copy a Soviet cluster bomb designed to disperse
biological weapons

· A project by the Pentagon to build a bio-weapon plant from
commercially available materials to prove that terrorists could do
the same thing

· Research by the Defence Intelligence Agency into the
possibility of genetically engineering a new strain of
antibiotic-resistant anthrax

· A programme to produce dried and weaponised anthrax
spores, officially for testing US bio-defences, but far more
spores were allegedly produced than necessary for such
purposes and it is unclear whether they have been destroyed or
simply stored.

But it's all in the name of defense,right? My feeling is: Beware of ANYTHING funded by the Pentagon.
