ANTI-TERROR bosses last night hailed their latest ally in the war on terror — the BLACK DEATH.
At least 40 al-Qaeda fanatics died horribly after being struck down with the disease that devastated Europe in the Middle Ages.
The killer bug, also known as the plague, swept through insurgents training at a forest camp in Algeria, North Africa. It came to light when security forces found a body by a roadside.
The victim was a terrorist in AQLIM (al-Qaeda in the Land of the Islamic Maghreb), the largest and most powerful al-Qaeda group outside the Middle East.
It trains Muslim fighters to kill British and US troops.
Now al-Qaeda chiefs fear the plague has been passed to other terror cells — or Taliban fighters in Afghanistan

With our open borders and Obamarama’s New Homeland Security team, we will have it in the States before long.

Could they have been experimenting with bioterrorism?

More terrorists will meet their deserved fate. I just hope the plague doesn’t kill a lot of innocent people in the meantime.

Hey, maybe we’re using bio-weapons. Wouldn’t that be something?

If they now have the means to spread this, it is very scary stuff.

My thoughts as well. They had a breach in one of their labs.

That’s what I was thinking. Let’s hope we’re wrong.

"Could they have been experimenting with bioterrorism?" That is exactly what I thought when I read this.
