Cuba producing biological weapons?

[shakermaker]

USA has again accused Cuba for producing biological weapons.
The claim was told by diplomat Roger Noriega. He says that weapon-producing is one reason why USA won't take off economic sanctions against Cuba.
Cuba says that it's a lie.

And I say totally bullshit!
USA is one of the worst coutries to blame some other cuontries for producing that kind of weapons.
United nations threaten countries that might have or produce biological weapons. in the same time USA itself develope and produce biological weapons.
Also USA is worlds biggest producer, occupationer and user of weapons of mass destruction.

Is Cuba USAs next target?

any opinions?

I doubt its the next, I think the US will play the waiting game (for the end of Fidel :( ).
The US claims cuba has these weapons so it can call it an 'axis of evil'.

I agree...I think they are just making up stuff so they have a reason to attack cuba when our beloved Fidel passes away... :ph34r:
They probably dont want another fiasco like the attack on the bay of pigs in the sixties...eventhough the cuban army probably isn't as strong as it was in the early years of the revolution... :(

[RebeldePorLaPAZ]

I sincerely doubt that cuba is producing biological weapons. This is just another tactic by the americans to make a war against cuba &#39;valid&#39;. im sure the americans didn&#39;t mention in their report that they actively support terrorist groups in Miami eg &#39;brothers to the rescue&#39; etc. They didn&#39;t mention either that they give the terrorist groups millions of dollars a year with which they buy weapons and explosives to use against cuba and its people. it is estimated that over 3000 cuban citizens have been killed and over 5000 have been horifically injured as a direct result of the miami-based terrorist groups detonating explosives in hotels, sinking ships, hijacking and crashing passenger planes, attacks on farms, factories, and other buildings vital to cuba&#39;s economy, and full of innocent men, women, and children. Fuck america&#33; :angry:

yeah any non-imperialist with weapons to defeand it self are axis of evil or a terrorist state. the only ones that arent the so called terrorist are the one who kills daily, and has weapons of mass destruiction and keep advancing. usa, isreal, and england well western europe. add austrailia. cuba has weapons left over from the cold war. but does not produces i think any more. but if it does produces it has all the rights to. shit the yankess are above. viva el tio fidel.

Here&#39;s a MSNBC article on it. (http://famulus.msnbc.com/FamulusIntl/reuters10-02-162221.asp?reg=AMERICAS)

It&#39;s being used as a justification for maintaining (and tightening?) the embargo. Part of the endless propaganda war.

Has to be answered, of course....but this hasn&#39;t been one of their more successful lines of anti-Cuba propaganda.

"&#39;&#39;We continue ... to believe that Cuba has at least a limited, developmental, offensive biological weapons research and development effort and is providing dual-use biotechnology to other rogue states,&#39;&#39; said Noriega, the top U.S. diplomat for Latin America. "

"dual-use biotechnology" would mean "medicines, or knowledge on how to make medicines, that might conceivably be of use to a biological weapons program." I mean, all kinds of essential stuff COULD conceivably also be used to grow harmful germs instead of for medical purposes.

[Comrade Marcel]

With a last name like Noriega, who could trust his claims? ;)

But seriously, this was dealt with a long time ago by Cuba. Castro afford to allow in inspectors and he gave Jimmy Carter a tour of these alleged facilities when he was visiting.

The American bourgeoisie just don&#39;t want the American people to believe that Cuba could possibly be using their people (doctors) and facilities to help their own people... No they must be developing chemical weapons&#33;

Cuba is producing biological weapons?

I doubt this very much, but let us assume that they are for a minute.

I agree with the sentiment that the U.S. has no right to complain about WMDs when the U.S. has the greatest supply of WMDs in the world.
