The Russians are still rank incompetents, only with dangerous weaponry.
According to the Daily Star a bioweapons lab and storage facility recently exploded in Siberia, and could have spread Level Four biohazzard material to the surrounding countryside.
From the article:
A massive gas explosion has sparked a fire at a Russian lab that houses viruses ranging from smallpox to Ebola, authorities have said.
The State Research Centre of Virology and Biotechnology has said a cylinder exploded in lab which is one of two places in the world that houses the smallpox disease which has been eradicated in the world.
Other highly lethal diseases that are stored there include Anthrax and Ebola.
Located in Koltsovo, in the Novosibirsk region of Siberia, the site is thought to be where biological weapons have been made.
End
These were the idiots we so feared back in the day?
This is in no small measure at least partly our fault. We kept the nuclear cities running to avoid scientists freelancing. They have been prouducing prodigious amounts of weapons-grade nuclear material since the end of the Cold War.That was Bill Clinton/Madeleine Albright's brilliant idea.We actually PAID for it! I have no doubt we did the same with bio-weapons.
We should have helped them dismantle these facilities, and made it a condition for deaoling with the fledgeling Russian government. We didn't. We made little effort to engage the Russians, and they turned back to the people who had run their country into the ground in the first place.
So now we have Ebola-infected labs blowing up. Great.
