US controls bird flu vaccines over bioweapon fears

[Guest guest]

http://www.legitgov.org/#breaking_newsUS controls bird flu vaccines over bioweapon fears 11 Oct 2008 When Indonesia's health minister stopped sending bird flu viruses to a research laboratory in the U.S. for fear Washington could use them to make biological weapons, Defense Secretary Gates laughed and called it "the nuttiest thing" he'd ever heard. Yet deep inside an 86-page supplement to United States export regulations is a single sentence that bars U.S. exports of vaccines for avian bird flu and dozens of other viruses to five countries designated "state sponsors of terrorism." The reason: Fear that they will be used for biological warfare. [The U.S. is the most prolific 'state sponsor of terrorism' on God's green earth, and if *anyone* is going to create, spread and manage-for-profit an avian flu pandemic--it's Bush's bioterror team. Oh, btw. Try to envision  Palin running the show during a Blackwater-KBR bird flu event. See: Killer flu recreated in the lab 07 Oct 2004 UK Scientists have shown that tiny changes to modern flu viruses could render them as deadly as the 1918 strain which killed millions. A US team added two genes from a sample of the 1918 virus to a modern strain known to have no effect on mice.] =====In accordance with Title 17 U.S.C.
