OK, I’m going to try and do this without naming names…

The British troops in Afghanistan have been struck down by a mystery illness recently, with an investigation finding that the illness was just a “winter vomiting” bug.

I’ve heard different.

The source may have been an Al Qaeda terrorist who had been captured. The ‘mystery illness’ may have been caught when the British or US government used biological warfare to make it easier to find and capture members of Al Qaeda. Can anyone help verify this? I should stress I only have word of mouth from a friend of a friend. All very speculative, but I’ve not been able to find anything else on this… yet…
