Viruses and other micro-organisms tailored to detect the differences in the DNA of races could offer warmakers and terrorists of the future a new means to carry out ethnic cleansing." The panel also declared that, while only a theoretical possibility now, this capability adds urgency to the need to add verification procedures to the Biological and Toxin Weapons Convention signed by 140 nations including the U.S., U.K. and Russia. To that end, a conference of the signatories was held last year to discuss and implement verification procedures. Near the end of the conference, the U.S. representative raised several new objections resulting in postponing any action for a year. Aside from the naivet� in believing a signature on a treaty or convention is going to shut down weapons development programs, the panel may have grossly underestimated the time frame in which the weapons could become reality. The two key elements in developing such weapons are the decoding of the human genome (DNA) and advances in "gene therapy" (altering of genes). Both disciplines are advancing at an accelerated pace and the targeting capability may already be a reality. Billions of taxpayer dollars and private funds are being pumped into research and development in the two areas. While the findings have tremendous potential in conquering various diseases, they also can be used for nefarious purposes. Various universities and non-profit entities are receiving grants to carry on studies. Two approaches can be used in deploying the technology as weapons. Super germs can be developed that are resistant to known treatments along with development of vaccines that would protect only certain groups with similar DNA properties from the germs. Alternatively, toxins could be developed that attack only certain DNA groups. To the casual observer it might seem, with all the entities involved in the research and development programs, that coordination of all the findings and results would be difficult to coordinate at best. As we have shown in part two of this analysis with regard to anthrax vaccine, the effort is quite controlled with Battelle Memorial Institute (BMI) exerting maximum influence as surrogate for the federal government. The same is true for the development of other vaccines. BMI has "partnered" with a large, but unknown number of universities and other organizations in the field of DNA research. Such research requires the availability of significant funding for expensive equipment and highly paid scientists. BMI appears to have some influence in awarding of grants and its "partners" seem able to raise the large amounts of money necessary to continue the research. Most of the visible government grants in the field flow through the Department of Energy (DOE) which is overseeing the human genome project. BMI is the operator or "co-operator" of four of the five national laboratories under the DOE. As such, BMI manages the collection and collation of data on the human genome into one database comprising the most comprehensive information available in the field. Those who would pervert and convert the available information for the development of weapons have a problem. Many if not most of the scientists involved in the field are working for the betterment of mankind in conquering diseases. If they were to become aware of efforts to pervert the research, they might raise objections and expose those responsible. (Some may already have reached that point.) This might be the explanation of the recent mysterious deaths and murders of top scientists in the field. Then again it might just be the concept of "compartmentalization" where few are to be privy to the total picture. Since the September 11 attacks on the Pentagon and World Trade Center, no less than seven or eight top microbiologists have been murdered or died under suspicious circumstances. Dr. Benito Que, a cell biologist working on infectious diseases at the University of Miami was found beaten to death outside of his laboratory. Authorities say a mugging is suspected. Dr. Robert M. Schwartz, a well-known DNA sequencing researcher was found murdered in his secluded Loudoun County home in Virginia. Police have arrested a teenager and two unidentified adults in the case. Set Van Nguyen, a skilled microbiologist at the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Center in Australia died in a low temperature storage area where biological samples were kept. The cause was said to be a leak of liquid nitrogen from the cooling system. It is probably just a coincidence that Nguyen has the same last name as the quiet, 61-year-old Vietnamese immigrant who died in New York from anthrax. She is the only anthrax case where the source of the anthrax has not been determined. Already mentioned (but not by name) was the soviet defector who died, reportedly of a stroke, in Britain. Three weeks earlier just after the Sept. 11 WTC and Pentagon attacks, Vladimir Pasechnik had communicated with British officials about his knowledge on anthrax as a weapon. An Israeli journalist has raised concern about the loss of Israeli scientists involved in genetic and DNA research. Two have been assassinated, supposedly by terrorists. Some other prominent scientists were lost when the chartered plane they were on was shot down over the Black Sea, reportedly by an arrant missile from a Ukranian training exercise. Perhaps the most disturbing death is that of Harvard scientist Don C. Wiley. Wiley was one of America�s preeminent researchers into infectious diseases and HIV in particular. After years of meticulous research, Wiley had just scored a breakthrough by identifying the properties of the HIV virus that make it infectious and how it avoids destruction by the antigens in the human immune system. In theory, the discovery has application to other viruses that cause diseases. Viruses, as opposed to bacteria, seem to be immune to treatment by antibiotics. The dark side of the discovery, as Wiley himself discussed, is that the same information could be used to change relatively benign viruses into killers. Wiley disappeared from his rental car in the middle of a bridge over the Mississippi River when leaving after a dinner of the St. Jude Children�s Research Advisory Associates. A couple of weeks later, his body was found far downstream in the river. Although an autopsy was to be performed, no results have been made public despite the passage of several weeks.
