DESCRIPTION:Anthrax War takes viewers into the Bio-defense labs of the United States 
 and the U.S. Military’s testing grounds in the deserts of the American 
 southwest. The filmmakers travel to a top-secret military installation of 
 the former Soviet Union where anthrax escaped thirty years ago, where 
 civilians are still living with the consequences, and where biological 
 weapons work may be continuing. They move on to the savannas of southern 
 Africa, where they meet “Doctor Death” and his associates of the 
 notorious Project Coast who experimented with anthrax and other designer 
 germs during the Apartheid Era. And where the anthrax used in the 2001 
 attacks may have originated.\n\nAnthrax War begins by exploring the 2001 
 Anthrax Attacks which triggered the FBI’s Amerithrax investigation, the 
 largest in FBI history. The film reveals how the attacks have been helped 
 make bio-defense a mega billion dollar global business, into which the US 
 Government has poured at least $50 billion in the past six years – almost 
 twice as much as the cost of the “Manhattan Project”, the U.S. World 
 War 2 atomic bomb program.\n\nGerm weapons research and development, once 
 the domain of secret government programs, is becoming a profitable 
 enterprise for corporations, universities and medical foundations 
 worldwide. New and virulent pathogens are being brought to life by 
 scientists using the latest advances in nanotechnology and genetic 
 engineering, paving the way for such horrors as ‘ethnic specific germ 
 weapons’, never-seen-before ‘designer-bugs’ and emerging new 
 epidemics.\n\nThe film explores the horrific legacy of human 
 experimentation, spanning decades and continents, in which germ weapons 
 have been tested on unwitting members of armed forces and civilians 
 alike.\n\nAlso probed are the mysterious deaths in recent years of several 
 leading scientists working in this field. Bruce Ivins, David Kelly, 
 Vladimir Pasechnik, Larry Ford and Frank Olson each died in violent or 
 suspicious circumstances and have been linked to one of germ warfare’s 
 darkest secrets, state programs developing new strains of 
 anthrax.\n\nwww.anthraxwar.com\n
