On Friday, Roger Hedgecock - sitting in for Rush Limbaugh - made some mention of this. I don't know where he got his information, maybe a "gut feeling".

He alluded to the fact that the migration pattern of a lot of birds takes them over Cuba. Which begs the question: Could Fidel be tinkering with birds on their way north? Or allowing someone else to do the tinkering?

last year, cuba was on a massive anti-mosquito campaign. saw photos of soldiers going yard to yard on what they termed a mosquito crisis. the fact that it hit the news hard enough for me to hear about it (i don't follow cuban news but i do live in miami) makes me wonder if there is not more to this story than we know.

especially, since castro made the announcement that cuba and iraq could bring america to its knees. (anyone have that link handy?)

You didn't read the story about Cuba's leading ornithologist who defected and said that Castro has had people working on infecting migratory birds with viral diseases (especially encephalitis) that could be transmitted to Americans by mosquitos? West Nile was one of them.
