Make a formal apology for the Pentagon's illegal shipments of live anthrax to the U.S. bases in S. Korea and cover-up.

Created by I.P. on February 19, 2016

In 5/2015, 22 were exposed to anthrax at an U.S. base in S. Korea. Later it was revealed that anthrax samples with potentially live spores were shipped from a facility in Utah to the U.S. bases in S. Korea 15 times since 2009. These acts by the Pentagon are violations of the U.S. laws (Executive Order 13546, CFR 9/121 & 4/73) and the Biological Weapons Convention treaty. Additionally the Pentagon has attempted to conceal the truth. Knowing mass casualties can occur by a minute amount of anthrax, your silence on this matter is unacceptable. Therefore,

1) Apologize to the public in S. Korea.

2) Disclose fully what has been uncovered.

3) Assure the public, troops and their families in S. Korea and the U.S. that all measures will be taken to prevent recurrence and justice will be served.
