And, we cannot discount the scenario of a new, upgraded version of the pox (derived from ex-Soviet bio labs) being unleashed.

Money talks. The material and money starved peoples of the ex Soviet countries are susceptable to bribary and being bought off. Corruption there has been rampant. This nasty stuff did not go away when the empire crumbled.

People like Saddam and Bin Laden have no moral conscience and obscence wealth. Their goal in life is to die fighting for Allah and to inflict as many casualities on Americans as possible.

Those who have postulated that a pox epidemic would not be unleashed by terrorists because it would indiscrimantly kill Moslems are fools.

Amazing report from the New Yorker. Kinda unnerving to read what the "father or Smallpox" thinks about todays situations. Good read, it took me quite awhile to finish it and igest it all.

I was hoping that was only theory til I read that report in the New Yorker. Only one way we would ever know for sure, and I dont wanna find out!
