[clarity] Friday, February 10, 2006 11:50 AM Book on Biowarfare,Terrorism & Congress yet again / Boyle http://www.bookmasters.com/clarity/b0027.htm " Only hours after sensors in a U.S. Senate office building detected a nerve agent, key Senators suddenly reversed direction and announced a capitulation to the White House's demands on the renewal and expansion of the Patriot Act. " George Washington's Blog, February 10, 2006. BIOWARFARE AND TERRORISM by Francis A. Boyle Foreword by Jonathan King This book outlines how and why the United States government initiated, sustained and then dramatically expanded an illegal biological arms buildup. Most significantly, U.S. expert Francis A. Boyle reveals how the new billion-dollar U.S. Chemical and Biological Defense Program has been reorientated to accord with the Neo-Conservative pre-emptive strike agenda--this time by biological and chemical warfare. Linking U.S. biowarfare development to the October 2001 anthrax attack on Congress--the most significant political attack on the constitutional functioning of democracy in the United States in recent history--Boyle sheds new light on the motives for the attack, the media black hole of silence into which it has fallen, and why the FBI may never apprehend the perpetrators of this seminal crime of the 21st century. Biowarfare and Terrorism should raise public concern at what the vastly expanded US biowarfare research and purported civilian preparedness programs hold in store for America. Will the American people allow the Bush administration to pursue these programs, despite their incitement to a global biowarfare arms race, and the risk of accidents and reprisals? This book provides a unique tool for understanding the magnitude of the danger, and for countering it. Most significantly, U.S. expert Francis A. Boyle reveals how the new billion-dollar U.S. Chemical and Biological Defense Program has been reorientated to accord with the Neo-Conservative pre-emptive strike agenda—this time by biological and chemical warfare.

" George Washington's Blog, February 10, 2006. *************** " In a proposed law on the Senate floor, a giant new biodefense " sensitive but unclassified " (SBU) hole would be torn in the Freedom of Information Act, creating new secrecy at labs across the country... " " BARDA's Biggest Secret " The Sunshine Project, Feb. 2, 2006. *************** " The US used chemical weapons in Iraq - and then lied about it. Now we know napalm and phosphorus bombs have been dropped on Iraqis, why have the hawks failed to speak out? " George Monbiot, The Guardian November 15, 2005 *************** " In addition to creating the [1918 Spanish flu] virus, the scientists said they would place the gene-sequencing information from the new research in GenBank, a public database... GenBank will allow some research groups to build their own[dreaded 1918 virus that killed millions...] rather than seek samples of what the CDC had created. " " CDC May Distribute 1918 Killer Flu " Mike Stobbe, AP *************** " Despite the eradication of smallpox... [r]esearch is being done to develop even more deadly versions of the smallpox virus. The Department of Homeland Security claims they are experimenting with the virus in order to facilitate the development of vaccines to combat the possible use of smallpox in a terrorist attack.

" Centers for Disease Control, Atlanta 42 CFR Part 73, Oct. 20, 2005. *************** Scientists at the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology and at Mount Sinai led some of the expeditions to dig up the 1918 victims of Spanish flu and genetically reconstitute the virus. Scientists at the University of Washington are now injecting this virus which killed millions in 1918 into monkeys. What can be the value of resurrecting and " learning more " about this long-dormant threat -- compared to the threat that the research and recuperation process itself poses? *************** The Red Cross warns that government biological weapons programs pose a bigger threat to the world than bioterrorism. m.
