* Rihab Taha aka "Dr. Germ": Iraqi. A cunning woman scientist who heads Saddam Hussein's bio-terrorism team Rihab Taha, 45, is so notorious that United Nations weapons inspectors have nicknamed her "Dr. Germ" for deadly experiments she conducted. - "SECRETS OF 'DR. GERM'," by BILL HOFFMANN, New York Post , 10/22/01

She is also politically well-connected. Her husband is Iraqi oil minister Amir Rashid Ubaydi, who helps direct the country's relations with the U.N. weapons-inspection teams. U.N. inspectors believe Rihab Taha, who has a 5-year- old daughter, tests her poisons on human guinea pigs. Dr. John Turner, who once taught Rihab Taha biology, told London's Sunday Mirror: "It's a great shock, like finding your daughter has gone and done something dreadful." - "SECRETS OF 'DR. GERM'," by BILL HOFFMANN, New York Post , 10/22/01
