... and what about the US of A?
Post: 1
Posted Jul 2, 2001 by Tube - the being being back for the time being
e.g. in 1986 a US Army research project added the lethal factor of Anthrax to a bacteria that inhabit human intestine.
The use of an genetically changed version of the fungus Fusarium ocysporum against Colombian coca plants was planned (but not classified as a bio-weapon but a herbecide...).
Plus the US seems rather reluctant to sign the bio weapon convention.

(all this plucked from a quick search of the net)

It's not all history, here.

From what site did you pull this. . .
I am by no means claiming the US's innocence on the Biowar front we do have some pretty scary stuff. . .the stuff I pulled was stuff I had found out and wanted to offer up to you all. I and I am in the process of making my edited guide entry on the subject encompassing all the information I have recieved from other researchers. BUt again I would like to know the site so I could take a gander at it.
