were destroyed."
The goal of the project was to develop biological and chemical agents that would either kill or sterilize the black population and assassinate political enemies. Among the agents developed were Marburg and Ebola viruses.
Basson is surrounded by cloak and dagger intrigue, as he told Pretoria High court in South Africa that,
According to a 2001 article in The New Yorker magazine,
In 2013, Basson was found guilty of "unprofessional conduct" by the South African health council.
Bioweapons expert Jeanne Guillemin writes in her book Biological Weapons: From the Invention of State-Sponsored Programs to Contemporary Bioterrorism,
Basson’s bioweapons program officially ended in 1994, but there has been no independent verification that the pathogens created were ever destroyed. The order to destroy them went directly to Dr. Basson.
According to the Wall Street Journal,
Basson claims to have had contact with western agencies that provided "ideological assistance" to Project Coast. Basson stated in an interview shot for the documentary Anthrax War that he met several times with Dr. David Kelly, the infamous UN weapons inspector in Iraq.
Kelly was a top bioweapons expert in the United Kingdom. He was found dead near his home in Oxfordshire in 2003. While the official story claims he committed suicide, medical experts highly doubt this story.
In a 2007 article from the Mail Online, it was reported that a week prior to his death, Dr. Kelly was to be interviewed by MI5 about his ties to Dr. Basson. Dr. Timothy Stamps, Minister of Health of Zimbabwe, suspected that his country was under biological attack during the time that Basson was operating.
Stamps told PBS Frontline in 1998 that,
Stamps specifically named the Ebola and Marburg viruses as suspect.
Stamps thinks that his country was being used as a testing ground for weaponized Ebola.
The Ghanaian Times reported in early September on the recent Ebola outbreak, noting connections between Basson and bioweapons research.
The article points out that,
Indeed, these ideas are not new.
Plato wrote over 2,000 years ago in his work The Republic that a ruling elite should guide society,
He further stated,
As revealed by The Age, Nobel prize winning Australian microbiologist Sir Macfarlane Burnet secretly urged the Australian government in 1947 to develop bio weapons for use against the,
In a 1947 meeting with the New Weapons and Equipment Development Committee, the group recommended that,
