Crasher Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 Dozens of foreign insects and plant diseases slipped undetected into the United States in the years after 9/11, when authorities were so focused on preventing another attack that they overlooked a pest explosion that threatened the quality of the nation's food supply. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/44841097/ns/us_news-security/#.TpL8vGEuNR0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkfang77 Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 I suppose this problem of foreigners foreign pests affects every country with any agricultural base. This would be a perfect pro- argument for genetic engineering, selective breeding, and whatnot. But PETA/Greenpeace would start bawling again...
