I remembered a story I read years ago, I think it was part of the Clone Saga, the Jackal wanted to use the Carrion Virus to kill a lot of people and then replace them with clones under his command. If I'm not mistaken, he planned to do that with the whole world afterwards (kill everyone and replace them with clones under his command). So here we have an excuse as to why he would resurrect Samson.
