A Brief History of Bio-warfare

(Under construction) Bio-warfare has gone on almost as long as normal warfare.  If you've made the leap, as a person,people, as a state, to play the kill-others-game, it then it becomes a matter of: 

What's the best way to do that? 

Welcome to The Big, BIG-league.  Your mission: expand the reach of your higher-truth-horizon amongst the masses - by any means necessary.

First records of crude bio-warfare go back to 600 BCE, poisoning of the wells with animal carcasses & so on.  The plague was then weaponized in the Middle-ages.  During the siege of Caffa port (now Feodosia, Ukraine), then held by the Genovese, the Tatars  catapulted cadavers from a plague outbreak in their own rank into those of the Genovese.  It worked a treat.  Some say it caused the 2nd pandemic when the fleeing soldiers brought it back to Italy.

Then in 1763, Sir Jeffrey Amherst, the commander of the British forces in North America, ordered smallpox infected blankets to be handed out to non-compliant North American Indian communities. 

So bio-warfare tech has always existed as a human dark-art - for those with the power, the will to go there - it's in our blood. 

Then humanity ran smack-bang into the perfect storm ofof: WW2 - at a time of greatformidable scientificscio-tec  breakthroughs.  

Secret, ambitious projects to- findtop scientists developing the most efficient ways to kill - it was anything goes. 

Japan's Unit 731 in Manchuria, with it's 3000 scientists - who engineered/released plague-infected fleas killing 10 000 Chinese.  BackMeanwhile back at the lablab: STAGE 3 TRIALS on POW's - inoculated with u-name-it deadly pathogens - to see how they worked.

The UK was all for itbio-warfare tech - Porton Down Biological Research Centre's Anthrax Island bio-is one good example.   Anthrax-bomb experiments on tethered sheep. AccusedCovered-up for decades, the land was poisoned. Finally decontaminated by using formaldehyde.  Were accused by the Germans of releasing yellow fever in India.India, which Meanwhile,it denies.

Of course, the US was determined to be a world leader - it's how Fort Detrick started.  AccusedActually, byit thestarted Chineseorganically, a clique of Russiamilitary was into it.

TheLater, the US was accused of dropping cholera & plague bombs in the Korean War.  They deny it - say the outbreaks were due to natural causes - but it's a secret-security-op - your not gonna say if you did.

Funnily enough, Hitler was the only one who refused to do it.  He thought it was unethical.  What does that tell you? 

Even Nixon was taken aback by the review he commissioned, first in 10 years, on his country's secret bio-weapons program,  the massive stockpiles of deadly disease-bombs they'd amassed - saying the offensive program demonstrated nuclear equivalence of biological weapons

the nutty airplane aerosol attacks they'd been conducting in major cities with a simulant substance. The scale of this unchecked, alternative universe of bio-weapons thinking.   The potential of this to cause a humanity-shaping catastrophe.  Nixon visited Fort Detrick to announce an end to

. an arms race to world domination - an industry within itself.   Did it put some noses out of joint? The scio-security community were already a closed, unregulated powerful society - did they form an unofficial group?  (formed unofficially in 1941 - even Roosevelt didn't know about it

Loop-hole: 101:  We're not creating bioweapons for offensive deployment - just we need to keep making them - so we know how best to defend against them n such.
