In a paper to be published soon in the scientific journal Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, the two academics focus on recent US actions that have served to undermine the 1972 Biological Weapons Convention. In a move that stunned the international community last July, the US blocked an attempt to give the convention some teeth with inspections, so that member countries could check if others were keeping the agreement.

Mr Dando believes Washington's motive for torpedoing the deal, which had the support of its allies, was to maintain secrecy over US research work on biological weapons


Of course in a sense it's a question of "Duh, of course the US is breaking one more international treaty by producing weapomns of mass destruction" and of course they sank the new CBW treaty because they were the worst terrorists of all.  However this news comes "at a bad time" for Bush' lattest attempts to look like a good guy.

Yes, and it is apparent they are using your drinking water supply to test their biological weapons.
