#5 I wouldn't worry too much about the US government doing this. Now say a family member of someone killed by unconstrained, pandered to, and financed religious extremists who thinks that formal government won't clean up the mess, but someone who has the advanced training and skills to produce such ugly stuff - maybe. It's one thing to blow up a girls school in the badlands of the last holdouts of pre-industrial society. It's another thing to screw with a society in which there are individuals who if motivated enough can end your world.

#6 Peter has a blog!
about him:
I have appeared on TV, US Radio, written a book and write for the Palestine Telegraph. I reflect on the greed in this world, the wars, pain, suffering & poverty that American and British imperialism and their foreign policies have created. There is a direct link between this and the rise in self induced terrorism, conflict, genocide, poverty, and the displacement of millions of people. Current wars are all about excessive greed for oil and gas, natural resources, world control and certainly nothing to do with democracy. I also believe that world politics are controlled by Wall Street and London Bankers with Christian and Jewish Zionist at its heart.

#8 "I wouldn't worry too much about the US government doing this". Yes, I would like to believe this but in order to deal with this, research must be done to at least inoculate your people. All things at all times must be considered. Even on the fringe.

#10 I didn't know that religious extremists were a race.

Not necessarily a 'race' as much as a population group with distinguishing DNA tags.

#11 The guy is an obvious loony tune: there is no 'Afro' gene, what there is is a specific set of genotypes that cluster around specific racial characteristics. And yeah, with technology today, it is possible to target racial genotypes; however, the big danger is that 1} you don't know who all has what ancestor several generations back; and 2) mutations happen, especially in anything as wont to change itself as a flu virus which would be the most likely candidate for such an attack. That means that the flu could easily mutate after release and start killing all those that you had wished to save.
Besides which, the population in Africa is doing a fine job of wiping itself out, as well as erasing any and all economic development and infrastructure left behind by the colonial period. Such a weapon would be a case of taking coal to Newcastle.

#12 Mmm, ah, Rhodesia, I remember it well, birth control and anthrax, that was our idea of population/gene control. And, of course, .762 longs.
