Joe Rogan sat in visible disbelief as investigative journalist Annie Jacobsen detailed the case of Aafia Siddiqui, the first woman placed on the FBI’s most wanted terrorist list.Jacobsen described Siddiqui as an MIT-trained biologist who, according to CIA accounts, helped lead Al-Qaeda’s biological weapons efforts.After being captured, she allegedly grabbed a Marine’s rifle and opened fire on FBI agents interviewing her.Investigators reportedly found plans in her possession related to a genetically modified pathogen that mixed rabies with chicken pox, an airborne version with a potentially catastrophic death rate.She is now held in a mental institution in Texas. Rogan repeatedly expressed shock throughout the exchange, calling the details “nightmare stuff.”The segment has drawn significant attention for highlighting lesser-discussed aspects of post-9/11 biological threats.
