Pre emptive strike? In the 29th sept new scientist theres a story on US financed(mainly)biowarfare testing for a fungus poppy root destroyer.
Old news. UK does this research too; not just poppies, but cannabis, coca, etc. Its current research. Of course, the US is *currently* engaged in biowar in Columbia, spraying glyphosphate, (which you can buy at home depot, and kills everything it touches, the locals' food too). But the folks with the Soviet Sub Surplus connections haven't taken it personally yet. The *real* fun would be the introduction of hoof and mouth disease into the livestock regions of the country. Auction sites would be good as lots of flux, like sneezing variola in an airport. What was that Terry Gilliam movie, 12 monkeys?
