    A deadly strain of bird flu with the potential to infect and kill millions of people has been created in a laboratory by European scientists – who now want to publish full details of how they did it.

    The discovery has prompted fears within the US Government that the knowledge will fall into the hands of terrorists wanting to use it as a bio-weapon of mass destruction.

    Some scientists are questioning whether the research should ever have been undertaken in a university laboratory, instead of at a military facility.

    Has the time come when the global controllers are attempting to cull the population?  Where did the swine flu originate?

    What goes on in these people’s heads. If creating a potential weapon of mass murder wasn’t bad enough, wanting to tell one and all how to replicate their “success” it is sheer madness.

    It would be an easy way to make billions of dollars for vaccines.  It would also eliminate a large segment of the population?

      That's their main aim.. They won't let the whole secret out so that way they'll get the max profit

    The swine flu originates from a number of bird and mammal species that get the flu and cross-infect.  It has been quite closely tracked by too many international research groups for that to be just a "cover" story.

      So it could not have been created in a lab?


      How much money was made selling vaccines?

        We saw it being created, month by month, in nature and agricultural animals--one mutation at a time.  Nature is the best damn creator of disease there is, what has man created that compares to HIV, Ebola, hantavirus, Mad Cow and H1N1?

          Only one I can think of that someone is taking responsibility:

          A deadly strain of bird flu with the potential to infect and kill millions of people


          Once released you can follow all scientific data on mutations etc....

    Give it to the politicians first so we can see the effects and effectiveness of it!
