Spanish Intelligence Intercepts Plot to Weaponise Ebola
Breitbart London ^ | October 30, 2014 | Oliver Lane

Spanish intelligence has intercepted messages passed between jihadists online discussing the weaponisation of the deadly Ebola virus for use against the West, while a blackmailer in Prague has threatened to unleash the virus unless the Czech Republic pay him one million bitcoin, a volume of online currency worth over £200 million.

The national secretary of state for security in giving evidence to the Spanish Senate revealed online jihad propagandists had issued an edict to followers to kill Westerners by any means possible. Some of the methods suggested included “deadly chemical products from laboratories”, “poisonous injections” and “Ebola as a poisonous weapon”, reports theLocal.es.

Rumours of Ebola as a weapon have long circulated among the international intelligence community, as speculation arose over the potential successes of the former Soviet Union's extensive biological weapons programme in the last century. It is thought that at least one terrorist organisation, the Japanese Aum Shinrikyo cult has attempted to cultivate the Ebola for attacks. The cult killed thirteen on the Tokyo subway in 1995 with a release of potent nerve agent Sarin gas....

Before the Iraq war there was talk about a lab on the Tigris where Iraq has been working on an ebola-like bioweapon codenamed “Blue Nile.”

They may have - Zarqawi’s group had two cells in Iraq, one in Baghdad area and the other in the north where they were working on making a ricin cream that Ansar al Islam was intending to use on European mass transit... but the sites were taken out before much more came of them when we invaded.

Back then al Qaeda was limited in funds ... today its spawns ISIS is enormously wealthy and has the benefit of Izzat al Douri’s experience- he’s the Saddam Hussein henchman who used chem on the Kurds.

That is interesting... a Russian worker contracted ebola in 2004 while working on a vaccine.

Can’t help but notice the underlying theme of the article ...”ebola as a weapon doesn’t work”...which has about the same feel as “there are no wmd in Iraq” or “the US report says Iran halted its enrichment.” Doesn’t jive with how long the Russians were working on it. Wasn’t there an outbreak of something in the Afghan Russian war which ccaused blood to ooze from every orifice, etc?

Serious jihadis, dozens or even hundreds of them, could have obtained visas and brought weaponized ebola here by whatever vector they chose. Ten or fifteen years ago.

Or they could have sent a Manchurian Candidate to pave the way so that their attacks could have maximum effect, starting in the IL State Senate from 15 years ago to 10 years ago.

The Spanish intercepted it but our intelligence missed it?

Chances are the Spanish weren't busily engaged in intercepting every junior high girl's selfies...and were actually listening where it might do some good.

I would surmise that weaponizing Ebola was done long ago.

Does anyone doub that the DH”S” and Obola knew this

Obola IS his own curse against America.

That sounds more like Marburg (Ebola's nastier cousin).
