Which hostile nations (to the U.S.) and or terrorist organizations could make bio weapons?

I'm working on a paper about Ebola and one of my points to improve prevention instead of just containing the virus was about the possibility to spread and the the use of bio weapons/ terrorism.

I know that Iran, china, and north Korea could make biological weapons, but any other hostile nations that I'm missing or terrorist nations that could make them?

Update:

Edit: perhaps I'm not really clear. When I say potential to create biological weapons, I mean like the weaponization of the Ebola virus

    Probably none of them (except maybe Russia).

    It takes a great deal of capital investment (in the billions) to fund research to create a bio weapon stable enough to be delivered on target. Iraq tried for more than 20 years and failed in almost all attempts.

    Any of them. Take a crap in a bag and throw it at someone, that is a biological weapon.

    I would imagine that almost every country has the means, however modest, to make bio weaponry.
