| 2022-03-22 10:59:43 从瘟疫噩梦到德堡疑云，美国为何对生物武器如此“迷恋”？ 美国在俄乌爆发军事冲突前煽风点火。眼见火起，华盛顿一边火上浇油，一边尽量远离“火场”，生怕烧到自己。可是，人算不如天算，还是有一颗火星溅到美国身上，烧出一个大洞，引得大家纷纷围过来往洞里瞧，想搞清楚美国人到底在遮掩什么。俄罗斯总统普京说，乌克兰在美国军方的指导和支持下开展军事生物计划。中国外交部发言人也表示,中方呼吁美国开放在乌克兰的生物实验室供国际专家独立调查,并停止独家反对建立《禁止生物武器公约》核查机制。我们几乎可以肯定的是，这些合理要求不会被美国所接受，因为美国推动生物武器的研制、试验、开发和大规模使用，已有近百年时间了。在这段时间里，美国对这种武器的认知在持续加深。我们只有理清美国对生物武器深度认知的过程，才能透过纷纷杂杂的事件以及真真假假的信息，看清华盛顿的底层逻辑，明白美国“欲罢不能”的根本原因。 |
