we aren't letting any of it go to North Korea or Iraq. No?

I've heard rumours that N. Korea possesses at strain, and rumours that Iraq obtained some. But you're right that the US and Russia have kept strains in case it rears it's ugly head again and vaccines are required to be produced.

But again, if you use biological warfare, it's preferable to use bacterial agents, rather than viral.

And btw, lest we forget... there is economic biological warfare (aka.. hoof & mouth disease, West Nile Virus, wheat stem rust, rice blast.. etc)
