Was FBI too quick to judge anthrax suspect the killer?


By Greg Gordon | McClatchy Newspapers
WASHINGTON — Scouring the anthrax-laced mail that took five lives and terrorized the East Coast in 2001, laboratory scientists discovered a unique contaminant — a tiny scientific fingerprint that they hoped would help unmask the killer.

One senior FBI official wrote in March 2007, in a recently declassified memo, that the potential clue "may be the most resolving signature found in the evidence to date."

Yet once FBI agents concluded that the likely culprit was Bruce Ivins — a mentally troubled, but widely regarded Army microbiologist — they stopped looking for the contaminant, after testing only a few work spaces of the scores of researchers using the anthrax strain found in the letters. They quit searching, despite finding no traces of the substance in hundreds of environmental samples from Ivins' lab, office, car and home.

1. After they targeted the wrong man, the first time around.

But all roads lead to one man/cyborg.

2. Makes you wonder why the FBI doesn't seem interested in

finding out who really committed this act of terrorism?

Is no one else interested either? Leahy? Anyone?

3. We know the anthrax mailing was a false flag op

that helped out Bush, Cheney and the PNACers in stirring up war fever against Saddam Hussein and Iraq. The main question that maybe the FBI would rather not have to answer is, was it really just a lone-nutter who took on the role of amateur psy-war warrior and false flag op instigator, or was he acting in complicity with others.

Inside America's Biological Warfare Center: Q. & A. Interview With Attorney Barry Kissin

SNIP

Q: The anthrax letters had "Death to Israel," "Death to America " and "Allah is Great" printed in them. This seems like a crude propaganda plant to make the public believe the letters were sent by persons from the Middle East or their sympathizers. I've also heard it said the Bush Administration leaked information at the time of the anthrax attacks that the letters came from the Muslim world. What do you make of that?

A: This aspect of the anthrax letters is what makes the anthrax letters a "false flag" operation. A "false flag" operation is one wherein a country stages an attack made to look like an attack by an enemy, so as to justify an (aggressive) attack upon that enemy. Clearly, elements in the Bush administration and in the media, for as long as they could get away with it, pretended that the anthrax letters came from Iraq. This played an unmistakable role in gathering support for the invasion of Iraq.

Q: What do you believe was the motivation for the anthrax attacks?

A: The practice of inventing or exaggerating an attack or a threat in order to stimulate demand for military build-up and war has been in place forever. (The Gulf of Tonkin incident and the fabrication of Iraqi soldiers throwing Kuwaiti babies out of incubators before the first Gulf War are important, relatively recent examples.) In his 1961 Farewell Address, President Eisenhower warned about the "unwarranted influence" and "misplaced power" of the "military-industrial complex." Before that, General Douglas MacArthur declaimed: "Our country is now geared to an arms economy bred in an artificially induced psychosis of war hysteria and an incessant propaganda of fear." And before that, General Smedley Butler: "War is a racket. It always has been. It is possibly the oldest, easily the most profitable, surely the most vicious." And while we are at it, let's also heed James Madison, the primary author of our Constitution: "The means of defense against foreign danger historically have become the instruments of tyranny at home." And: "If Tyranny and Oppression come to this land, it will be in the guise of fighting a foreign enemy."

4. This up. The 9/11 attack wasn't a good pointer to Iraq. They had to close the loop.

And there's no question at all that the only reason most Americans supported the Iraq invasion was because we were told, in no uncertain terms, that Iraq had Anthrax and was getting ready to use it.

We were shown schematics of the mobile labs, we were shown satellite pictures of how they fooled the UN inspectors, and we were shown a vial of the stuff and told what damage it could do. All arguments to the contrary were quickly slapped down and branded as un-American. The Senate knew that if they didn't approve of the Iraq war resolution, any future attack on their state would be considered THEIR fault (so how's a Senator from New York going to vote?)

The only thing that made me FLY away from the right was how they, the right, didn't demand an immediate impeachment and trial for treason and execution (and I'm not kidding) over the planned, coordinated, orchestrated CONSPIRACY. (it wasn't the fucking "convergence of like minded common interests" - that's bullshit).

The right impeached Clinton over, excuse me, a blowjob but THIS they let slide?

That's when I left. And the more I looked, the more I remembered, figured and found out the mountain of lies that the right is built upon.

I'm absolutely sure the truth about the Anthrax was covered up even before they did it, but the subsequent lack of will among the Congress and our current President is "disappointing".

5. That would be a kind inference.

Were they complicit, are they complicit with the attacks and the coverup that follows.

[spooked911]

6. Yes, yes they did

and avoided the real culprits

[goodnews]

7. Why did these alleged attackers target Bob Stevens? ...

He was the National Enquirer Photo editor who died from anthrax poisoning. His moment of public notoriety came a few months previously when he published pictures of Bush's daughter Jenna drunk on the floor with another women at a party.

The attacks on Daschle and Leahy were, IMO, used to get America, Right and Left, united against the common, though not real, enemy. But I am sure that Daschle and Leahy knew it was really a message from the Bush fascists: "See what we can do and get away with, keep your fucking mouth shut".

Further I think that politics USA is a big extortion racket run by the Bushie fascists.


Note: The first anthrax attack was against another Bush enemy in 1991 an investigator (Welch)looking into Poppy Bush's role in the CIA Mena Arkansas drug peddling scandal. Due to the quick thinking of his doctor, he survived the attack. It was definitely anthrax.

8. a sham

If they were serious about finding a conspiracy to commit a false flag op they would have looked much more intently at ABC news and their involvement with promoting the story. Info they provided that could have only come from those who carried out the atacks.
