Black death vaccine developed to counter possible bioterrorism
19 Feb 2004


A team of scientists in the UK have made a major breakthrough in finding a vaccine against Black Death.

Black Death (Bubonic Plague) could be a possible weapon of bioterrorists.

The UK Ministry of Defence’s laboratories at Porton Down, UK said that the vaccine might be available within a year. Bubonic plague is one of the most dangerous bio-terrorism agents.

Large scale group trials will take place after a smaller test on human beings showed that there were no adverse effect (side effects). The tests were carried out in Wiltshire, UK.

We should expect the results of the large-scale trial within a year. Soon afterwards there should be a licence for the vaccine.

bubonic plague
Treatable with most modern antibiotics - tetracycline, etc. Still "Winds of Black Death" is a nasty name. My only consoling thought - hit us harder or as hard as 9/11 and say goodbye to mecca and medina. Then go after anyone who won't renounce radical islam. Seriously. ;-(

Kerry was confusing two seperate beliefs.

He confused the terrorist threat position with that of the latest workers comp case filed at the DNC from a female Kerry staffer.

That being "Over-blown"

Black Death is what the bubonic plague was called...

Not a big deal if that's what they have in mind -- plague is still around today, but you don't hear much about it because it's trivial to treat with antibiotics.

FoxNews email posted by Momaw Nadon

CAIRO, Egypt — The Arabic newspaper Al-Quds al-Arabi said Thursday it had received a claim of responsibility for the Madrid train bombings issued in the name of Al Qaeda.

The five-page e-mail claim, signed by the shadowy Brigade of Abu Hafs al-Masri, was received at the paper's London offices. It said the brigade's "death squad" had penetrated "one of the pillars of the crusade alliance, Spain," and carried out what it called Operation Death Trains.

"This is part of settling old accounts with Spain, the crusader, and America's ally in its war against Islam," the claim said.

Referring to Spain's Prime Minister Jose Maria Aznar, the statement asked: "Aznar, where is America? Who will protect you, Britain, Japan, Italy and others from us?"

The newspaper faxed the claim to The Associated Press office in Cairo.

The statement warned the United States that a major strike is approaching.

"We announce the good news for the Muslims in the world that the strike of the black wind of death, the expected strike against America, is now at its final stage — 90 percent ready — and it is coming soon, by God's will," the claim said.

Asked about the claim of responsibility, White House spokesman Sean McCormack said "we've seen the news reports and we're going to determine what the facts are."

The message also referred to last year's attack on Italian paramilitary police serving in the U.S.-led coalition in Iraq.

"When we attacked the Italian troops in Nasiriyah and sent you and America's agents an ultimatum to withdraw from the anti-Islam alliance, you did not understand the the message. Now we have made it clear and hope that this time you will understand," the statement said.

"We, at the Abu Hafs brigades, have not felt sad for the so-called civilians," the statement in an apparent reference to the hundreds of casualties in Thursday's attacks in Madrid.

"Is it OK for you to kill our children, women, old people and youth in Afghanistan, Iraq, Palestine and Kashmir? And is it forbidden to us to kill yours?" the claim asked.

The statement said another Al Qaeda squad, Jund al-Quds or Soldiers of Jerusalem, had carried out Tuesday night's attack on a Masonic lodge in Istanbul, Turkey.

"All the Masons would have been killed but there was a technical fault. So because God wished it, only three were killed," the statement said.

In the attack, two suicide bombers opened fire in the lodge's dining hall, killing a waiter and wounding five other people. The attackers then detonated rudimentary explosives. One assailant died in the blast while the other was severely wounded.

They should have called it Operation African American Death, then everyone would think it was a plot by corrupt, evil Republicans to get Teresa Heinz Kerry.

Oh, sh1+.

Bubonic would actually be something of a nonstarter nowadays.

I would call this an imminent threat.

It's time to unleash pre-emptive hell!
