Since 2005, the U.S. has partnered with Ukraine through the Pentagon’s Biological Threat Reduction Program. The purpose is "to support peaceful and safe biological detection and diagnostic capabilities and to reduce the threats posed by pathogens," according to a March 2022 government fact sheet.
Andy Weber, a member of the Arms Control Association Board of Directors and a former assistant secretary of defense for nuclear, chemical, and biological defense programs, previously told us there are no U.S. military-run labs in Ukraine but rather health labs to help detect, prevent and mitigate infectious disease.

The collaborative programs have focused on improving public health and agriculture...


You willing to bet YOUR life on it? Of course not. I did. I was in the First Gulf War. I'd loved to have seen your candy ass running around without MOPP gear on telling everyone what-all Sadam doesn't have. And "to speak of" doesn't cut any ice here.

I supported winning the Iraq War because we were in it. I did not agree with invading and/or deposing Saddam. For REAL reasons. I don't need to make any up.









Just like the Pentagon can't find or doesn't have Bio-Weapons labs in Ukraine & elsewhere.
