IMO this is terrorism because they are satisfying their object of sickness and hitting the economy! PETA did complain about how chickens are raised/treated , so the terrorism could still be domestic.

JP, I respect your views a lot, but I think you're off the deep end on this one. Avian Flu outbreaks have occurred many, many times over the years. The last widespread outbreak was in 1983-84 when something like 20 million birds had to be wacked in Pennsylvania, Delaware, Virgina, and Maryland. Terrorism was not the cause then, and I doubt its the cause now. Like global warming and cooling, these things just happen in cycles from time to time.

Speaking of 1984 I remember that horrible stomach flu or virus that everyone had. My babygirl was the first one to show symptoms, she came home from the daycare with it. Then my son and other daughter caught it within a 24 hour period. Then my husband and I was the last to get it.

It was a hell of a time keeping up with bed linen. Whatever that was had our heads over the bath tub while our butts were on the commode.

I hope 'you are ' right L

I was thinking when I referenced this L, I was merely saying that Peta is not beyond killing chickens, not so much the avian flu is a big conspiracy. My conspiracy is with foods/bio terrorism.
