Sen. Roberts warns agroterrorism attack 'likely'/Fear! Fear! Fear!

[proud2BlibKansan]

Sen. Pat Roberts says a bio-terror attack in the U.S. is more likely than people might imagine.

The Kansas Republican said because of that, the nation cannot let down its guard. Roberts spoke Thursday in Kansas City at the three-day International Symposium on Agroterrorism, which began Tuesday.

Roberts said some people in Washington don't take the threat of a bio-terror attack seriously. But he said experts believe it's a question of when, not if, such an attack will occur.

Roberts sponsored a bill one month after the 9/11 attacks of 2001 to fund greater protection against acts of terrorism against the food supply.

1. Oh they talking about biological.

Probably a threat from group that wants control and power over much of society, those are the types that do that.

Funny thing, Would you refuse to raise taxes on rich, as an example, if they threatened that? I wouldn't I would do the opposite, and take everything they had.

If they make that threat, they should not have any power.

3. I would go further

I would raise taxes, and if they did release a biologic agent, I would have them all killed. That may not be very liberal but if they could carry out of biological attack, they are the worst people to have ever lived.

2. It's already happened.

It's called Monsanto, a terrorist predator corporation.

5. Monsanto and patents are more a risk against collapse in food supply

an ability to recover than any hostile bio-terror attack.

There are many foreign pathogens that have impacted wildland vegetation inadvertantly through horticulture.

Patenting and narrowing and breeding commercial strains of food resistent to pesticides is a recipe for attack and non-sustainable agriculture (that kills small agriculture as a side effect).

Any honest biologist knows this unless their paycheck and brainwashing creates denial of natural law.
