Biological weapons have a great capacity for backlash. As it is used against the enemy, it can spread and kill the very people that released the 'killer germ' in the first place. These types of weapons have worldwide laws as to their use, but it takes just one government to violate those rules and release a deadly agent that could devistate the globe.
