globalresearch | t should be apparent that the launching of bio-warfare, as with
conventional warfare, is considerably eased by locating military bases,
offensive weapons and delivery systems as physically close as possible
to one’s potential enemies. This is one reason the US has established
its nearly 1,000 foreign military bases – to ensure the capability of
putting an enemy under attack within 30 minutes anywhere in the world.
Clearly, the same strategy applies to biological warfare, the US
military having created scores of these labs euphemistically defined as
“health-security infrastructure” in foreign countries.
It is frightening to learn that many of these foreign
bio-installations are classified as so “Top-Secret” they are outside the
knowledge and control of even the local governments in the nations
where they are built. It is also frightening to learn that the Ebola
outbreaks all occurred in close proximity to several of these well-known
(and top-secret) US bio-weapons labs in Africa.
There were great fears a few years ago when American scientists
recreated the Spanish flu virus that killed around 50 million people in
1918. They spent nine years on this effort before succeeding, and now
large quantities of this virus are stored in a high-security government
laboratory in Atlanta, Georgia. More recently, scientists have created a
mutated super-strain of the deadly H5N1 bird flu virus that is directly
transmissible among humans and would have at least a 50% kill rate,
spawning fears in 2005 of a global pandemic that might kill hundreds of
millions.
In late 2013, more than 50 of the world’s most eminent scientists
severely criticised the research Ron Fouchier and colleagues at the
Erasmus Medical Centre in Rotterdam, who have been developing mutant
varieties of the H5N1 bird-flu virus that are far more dangerous to
humans. The scientists wrote that the research was designed to make the
virus fully transmissible between humans, and clearly had a dual
civil-military function. This engineered flu could kill half the world’s
population, and not by accident. The US military funded this research
with more than $400 million.
