Pentagon Accidentally Sends Live Anthrax to Nine States And South Korea

[Teddy Pollins]

Well those states were probably hostile anyway so its not really that big a deal. Accidents happen, its a complex system, mistakes are part of the learning process.

Do not make fun of the Pentagon. It is a serious organization. At least pretend to be so.

Fucking idiots. Heads should roll for crap like that.

Heads should still roll.

Could be they are testing the virus. Can't put anything past them. Why in the hell are they shipping antrax to 9 different places in the first place? Either this is a test or they are just too stupid for words.

One guess where they got it from...

North Korea now testing anthrax on ICBMs: report
December 20, 2017 - North Korea is testing whether its missiles capable of hitting the U.S. are also capable of carrying the deadly bacteria anthrax, according to a report.

The Kim Jong Un regime is looking into whether it can prevent the biological weapon from dying out in the extreme heats that an intercontinental ballistic missile endures when it goes through the Earth’s atmosphere, the Asahi newspaper reported Wednesday. The report, based off of a source in South Korea, said that it did not have confirmation about whether the tests had been successful.

North Korea has been developing its missile program for decades, and a test last month let the world know that it has the U.S. East Coast within range of its latest Hwasong model. It has also tested nuclear weapons several times, most recently in September with what it says was a hydrogen bomb.

Though the Kim regime has answered threats from President Trump about “fire and fury” with the trumpeting of its own nuclear weapons, the U.S. and allies have also been worried about other non-atomic weapons. Both chemical and biological weapons were mentioned in reference to North Korea in a National Security Strategy unveiled by Trump on Tuesday.
