GovernmentAttic Publishes Declassified Survey of Worldwide Bio-War Research
An anonymous reader writes "The GovernmentAttic website has just published a dossier of reports produced by the Defense Intelligence Agency describing biological weapons development in nations throughout the world. The 16 reports were released by the Department of Defense in response to declassification request submitted five years ago. Although the sensitive bits were removed, the remaining portions of the reports demonstrate the prevalence of research, development and deployment of bio weapons worldwide, despite an international treaty prohibiting such activity. The same website has also published a Thesaurus of Biological Warfare terminology (PDF) and a listing of pre-1946 reports on biological and chemical warfare (PDF) from the Army."
Yup. Our invasion of Iraq was just so wrong. The fact that they invaded kuwait and the UN troops (with USA) stopped it has nothing to do with anything.
Likewise, when Afghanistan launched an attack on USA, we should have turned the other cheek and allowed Afghanistan/AQ to continue attacking us.
And we should just pull out of the Mid-east and allowed all of those dictators to continue wiping out their citizens.
Its funny. France and italy pushed America to help with Libya to stop the slaughter, but we are the bad guys.
Likewise, Syria has Iran and Hezbellah helping a dictator that is committing genocide, but America is to blame on this.
North Korea continues to threaten South Korea and we have helped South Korea not only build up after the korean war, but also help protect them. Every time we want to withdraw from there, the SK gov. throws a fit and wants us to stay. And NK comes on strong with all sorts of threats and attacks against SK.
Then there is Taiwan, phillipines, vietnam, and India who absolutely want us to stay in the region because they have been invaded numerous times by China. Heck, China took over tibet, who was a free nation, and yet, it is America that is the bad guy that encourages North Korea, Iran, China, Pakistan (even though they are/were an alley), etc. to build nukes, chemical weapons, etc. And obviously, it is America that encouraged Iran, Syria, Libya, and Iraq to build nukes/chemical weapons due to the threat of USA. It was never about Iran/Syria, Libya wanting to attack Israel, and then Iraq wanting to defend itself against iran.
Nope, you sideliners have it right. America is 100% to blame for it all.
I prefer the "u" in honour as it seems to be missing these days.
