In 1968, LBJ was president, and in 1976, Gerald Ford, so neither of these incidents can be added to Nixon's (considerable) register of sins.

Also antibiotics. Even the name is sinister.

if that freaks you out, what about cytostatics, drugs that hinder the proliferation of all cells. Just take them and pray to god it affects the fast growing tumor cells more than your own. By the way, the dose needed to actually do something to the tumor is high enough to murk you, so better take 3 different ones in lower doses

Definitely freaky, but antibiotics are just biotics too- they're just the warrior/spartan kind that have a tendency to kill off all of the other guys.

From the article: "In response to public protests over these incidents, President Nixon disbanded the Army Chemical Corp, and took action to ratify the Geneva Protocol to prohibit chemical weapons in war."

After always hearing bad things about Nixon, this came as a surprise. However, I did a little more looking and yes, Nixon did some good things for the environment.

There’s a military history channel I follow that did a special on this topic. I remember that nerve gas initially came out of the pesticide research:
