Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin says that the parcels were "forged" and "not from China".

"Pull my finger," he added.

Do they carry diseases?

Inoculated with some fungus or blight?

Put the seeds in a metal container, stick in an oven, and roast at 400°F for an hour. That should sterilize the seeds, if not turn them in carbon.

Osama is a very common name in the Middle East.

I bet you’re also nervous about anybody named Muhammad...

That was my thinking like the last season of the Last Ship, a genetically altered disease for plants that can be spread by a variety of plants and them pollination.

Like the original stat’s for COVID 19 but for plants

I know one of the leading theories on this is that the Chinese are trying to hurt us by getting invasive species to take root and grow.

The thing is, couldn’t they achieve that by just having some Chinese smuggle in seeds and going out into the edges of fields by the treelines at midnight and planting the seeds?

Or giving some packets to some schizophrenic homeless people and telling them they are magic seeds that will grow gold and telling them to go out in some fields to plant them?

My concern is that these are genetically modified in some way to that when they pollinate with regular plants, would produce sterile offspring and the plant species could become very rare if not extinct.

Probably just simple gmo seeds with Genetic use restriction technology (AKA GURT or Terminator genes):

Terminator is the popular name given to the Genetic Use Restriction Technology (GURT) that essentially shuts off the reproductive abilities of seeds, making second generation seeds sterile. According to many blog posts on anti-GMO websites, genetically engineered seeds are sterile due to agro-corporations developing terminator genes, which force farmers, particularly in the developing world, to buy seeds from one season to the next. In fact, the most controversial patent is shared by the US Department of Agriculture and no GMO seeds are sterile. The patents related to GURT have expired.

Or by mixing them in with potting soil. Or encapsulating them and mixing them in granulated fertilizer.

This whole thing is Chinese people seasoning their e-commerce accounts on some Chinese e- commerce site so they can rank higher because they have more us based “orders”. It is just black hat SEO.
