@Stoictom - Well that's possible too. But -- it's harder to evade the "own goal" problem going that way because viruses mutate all the time and once you let it out you lose control of it. Trust me when I tell you that the bioweapons folks have tried to come up with that for several decades -- something they can vaccinate the entire population against and then fuck their enemy with it. The problem with doing it is you can't control the mutations of a virus in the wild and once it's out it will EVENTUALLY evade the vaccine, and now your own people all die too. That's why it hasn't been done before now -- they can't be sure they can prevent the mutation/evasion problem and if you try and are wrong you just killed all your own people. This is what makes the risk of what we're doing now so unique; the mutations, when they occur, make the virus STOP KILLING instead of START KILLING and as a result the weapon becomes feasible.
