The question is when: the ideology of Al Qaeda and the reality of bioterrorism
Article Abstract:
The threat of bioterrorism by the Al Qaeda looming large over the world has to be understood on the basis of a joint analysis of their ideology and the practical utility of molecular biology. Political checks and constraints of a bipolar world has so far prevented the use of bioweapons but the financial resources available with the Al Qaeda and their commitment to destruction makes it nearly impossible to prevent them from using such weapons unless the world keeps a strict vigil on all fronts.
