Gene-War

In recent months, there have been news reports of biological weapons programs aimed at creating microbes that would target particular races. The first report was from South Africa, where there seems to have been such a program during the apartheid era aimed at negroids. More recently, it has been revealed that such a program existed (and perhaps still exists) in Israel aimed at Arabs.

I have long known that developing race-specific pathogens is a scientifc possibility. But I had not suspected that any governments were actually pursuing this line of research.

Now we know that covert development of bio-weapons for a "gene war" is underway between the genomes of different races. But we do not know exactly how many nations are engaged in this effort. Almost certainly, the multi-racial, "politically correct" U.S. government is NOT preparing race-specific bio-weapons. Nor is the current, chaotic, black-ruled government of South Africa developing anti-negroid bio-weapons; and the White South African scientists behind the old program in that country would surely not make bio-weapons against the White race.

Israel, the only nation in the Middle East with nuclear weapons, has the brain-power and the national will to develop anti-Arab bio-weapons. I do wonder, however, if there is enough genetic difference between the two Semitic peoples -- Jews and Arabs -- for such weapons to work on only one of the two. Maybe the Ashkenazi (European) Jews would be safe, but the Jews whose families have lived in the Middle East for millennia might be too genetically similar to Arabs for the bio-weapon to spare them.

Finally, we have to consider the races whose people are distinct from all of the aforementioned, possess an ancient culture, a modern sciencific establishment, and a patriotic population. The races I am thinking of are the Chinese and Japanese. The latter would probably not develop race-specific bio-weapons without provocation, since their post-WW II society has been markedly pacifistic. The Chinese, however, are a different story. Their government is highly nationalistic, pressing forward with a major military build-up that is frankly aimed against the U.S. (and which has been aided and abetted by greedy American politicians, particularly Bill Clinon).

North Asians (Chinese, Japanese and Koreans) are second only to the White race in their science, industry and cultural accomplishments. Might they one day decide that the best way to beat the competition is to exterminate them (us!) via bio-weapons?
