We Have Met the Enemy, and He Is Us
The Pentagon disclosed yesterday that for over a decade, unsuspecting military personnel were exposed to biological and chemical weapons as part of "Project 112," designed to test the dispersion patterns and staying power of biochem agents. Some 260 servicemen have since claimed illnesses that they believe may be related to the tests. The Department of Defense plans to close its investigation into Project 112 within the next two weeks, but several representatives have written a letter to Donald Rumsfeld urging that the inquiry continue.
