They found a way to implant a chip into a beetle and can now control it via a remote...

Now what would happen if they infected it with some rare yet deadly plague and sent thousands into enemy territory? ...

Also, here are 11 other modifications that have already been done to animals.

Somehow, I just think this idea of modifying creation is not gonna end well.

I saw this and more a couple of years ago. Do you really think THEY would tell us what's really going on?

Wouldn't it be a lot easier to drop the infected bugs out of a plane or even a car than use some complicated (and possibly unreliable) setup?

From what I have read they were developed by the military and are used to spy. If anyone cares to know just search for spy bugs. I don't use Google. From what I have read it's a spyware site also. And I'm so tired of looking up links for people who won't do their own research. Too many are in denial. I have my own problems.

I wasn't asking you to do any of my research. In fact I wasn't talking to you at all.

I wasn't talking to you either. It was general.
