The American Security State never stopped creating deadly biological warfare germs in the United States and abroad

Biological warfare research began in the United States in 1943 by order of President Franklin Delano Roosevelt. The U.S. Army Chemical Warfare Service then began a large-scale research and development program at Fort Detrick in Frederick, Maryland. That research continues to this day

President Nixon’s Executive Order in 1969

President Nixon’s “Statement on Chemical and Biological Defense Policies and Programs,” was signed in late 1969. Nixon ordered “The United States shall renounce the use of lethal biological agents and weapons, and all other methods of biological warfare,” and “The United States will confine its biological research to defensive measures such as immunization and safety measures.” The Department of Defense (DoD) and the CIA simply ignored the president’s executive order.

 Fort Detrick survived Nixon’s order by destroying all evidence of offensive biowar research on the base. Nevertheless, DoD and CIA continued research in other labs. In 2015 reporters for USA TODAY found more than 200 high-containment lab facilities in all 50 states and the District of Columbia operated by government agencies, universities, and public and private companies. They wrote, “They're scattered across the country from the heart of New York City to a valley in Montana; from an area near Seattle's Space Needle to just a few blocks from Kansas City's Country Club Plaza restaurant and shopping district.”In 2009 I was seeking facts for my novel, The Woolsorter’s Plague. A friend arranged for a visit to Fort Detrick to see the emergency hospital I wanted to include in my book. I did see the hospital – it had an airlock, was nicknamed “The Slammer,” and the director said it could deal with any accidental exposures to germs by the staff. During my tour I saw labs with door labels like Ebola, Marburg and other deadly pathogens. The director assured me their research was designed to find cures and vaccines for all those diseases. It was 2009, long after Nixon’s order, so I believed him.

 The Biological Weapons Convention

In 1972 we signed The Biological Weapons Convention and by 2023 it was ratified by 185 countries. The Convention is a disarmament treaty that bans biological weapons by prohibiting development, production, acquisition, transfer, stockpiling and use. The Pentagon and CIA evaded the terms of that treaty even though it was ratified by the Senate and took effect in 1975. Once again, DoD and CIA ignored it by hiding their research programs with a screen of top-secret classifications and by stonewalling inquiries.That helps us understand why the Pentagon could not pass its last six audits. Their huge budget for black projects is something DoD doesn’t want to reveal to auditors because if those projects were made public they would horrify taxpayers – and the rest of the world. In its last audit, the Pentagon could only account for half of its assets of $3.8 trillion (equipment, facilities, etc). That means they could not account for $1.9 trillion! That’s twice the entire Pentagon budget for 2023. What other federal agency could get away with that?

The Obama Administration and Fauci

In a recent interview with Jimmy Dore, Robert F Kennedy Jr. (RFK Jr.) showed the genesis of the Pentagon’s funding of biowar labs. He said the Pentagon “took the money that Cheney (the former Vice President) gave them (from the Patriot Act) $2.2 billion, and they funneled it through NIH, and it all went through Anthony Fauci. So beginning in 2002, Anthony Fauci got a 68% raise from the Pentagon for doing bioweapons development, and he got another raise of billions of dollars a year, and then he started doing all of this gain-of-function experimentation.”Then, as was reported in March 2023 by ThePrint website, RFK Jr. added that when three viruses leaked out of Fauci’s U.S. labs in 2014, Congress held hearings and 300 scientists sent letters to President Obama who then told Fauci to stop his American-based gain of function labs.

 “Gain of function” is research designed to make germs, like a corona virus that causes colds and the flu, become lethal to humans. That sounds insane, but we were assured by Fauci that gain of function research is vital bccause a lethal version of a relatively harmless virus might be the cause of a pandemic, and he needs to know how to create a vaccine to combat it. We now know how that worked out.After Obama’s order, Fauci took his gain of function research to China’s lab in Wuhan and to other countries. The Pentagon admits it has bio-laboratories in 25 countries like Georgia and Ukraine as well as countries in the Middle East, South East Asia and Africa. Those labs are funded by the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) under a $2.1 billion program called “Cooperative Biological Engagement Program.”

 Toria Nuland, Under Secretary of State, admitted in a Senate hearing on 8 March 2022 that “Ukraine has biological research facilities, which, in fact, we are now quite concerned Russian troops and Russian forces may be seeking to gain control of.” DoD spokesman John Kirby’s said it was all a “bunch of malarkey.”

Did Dod and CIA Test Their Germs on Foreigners?

”Dilyana Gaytandzhieva is a Bulgarian investigative journalist. Pressure by the Bulgarian National Security Agency got her fired from the Bulgarian newspaper Trud Daily. Despite that, Dilyana continued her investigations.Her report, published on South Front in 2018, details Pentagon biowar labs around the world. She shows copies of DTRA’s contracts with Georgia for DTRA-funded labs and extensive evidence of DoD and CIA germ and insect vectors being tested in several foreign nations. Read her report here:An example she reports is that 364 Ukrainians died from Swine Flu. One of the Pentagon laboratories is located in Kharkiv, where in January 2016 at least 20 Ukrainian soldiers died from a flu-like virus, with 200 hospitalized. Ukraine did not report the dead and sick soldiers in Kharkiv but by March 2016, 364 deaths were reported across Ukraine from Swine Flu A, the strain that caused the world pandemic in 2009. The Donetsk People's Republic intelligence service said the US bio-lab in Kharkiv leaked the deadly virus.She cites a CIA project named Project Clear Vision (1997 and 2000). Under a CIA contract Battelle Memorial Institute tested a Soviet-era anthrax bomb for its dissemination capabilities. That secret CIA-Battelle test was omitted from Biological Weapons Convention declarations submitted to the UN.Dilyana also reports bio-engineering lethal viruses is happening again in the United States, using the example of the Middle East Respiratory Syndrome coronavirus. She says the MERS-CoV virus was bio-engineered by DoD, as was enhanced influenza and SARS. Leaks of those viruses caused Obama’s 2014 ban on gain of function research in the U.S. until 2017 when those experiments were resumed as “Enhanced Potential Pandemic Pathogens.” Gain of function research is again legal in the US.
