SelectPlusAnthrax Case Takes a Final TwistAnthrax Case Takes a Final TwistThe Associated PressAnthrax-laced letters that killed five people and severely rattled the post-9/11 nation may have been part of an Army scientist's warped plan to test his cure for the deadly toxin, officials said Friday. (Aug. 1)Bruce Ivins...a brilliant microbiologist...and a suspected multiple murderer. (hazmat suits)the man believed to be behind the 2001 anthrax attacks was an Army researcher(Red Cross shot) who killed himself this week as the government moved toward indicting him -- and seeking the death penalty (graphics of Brokaw and Daschle letters) a bizarre turn for the probe into the anthrax-laced letters that killed 5 and chilled the nation a few weeks after Nine-Eleven (Hatfill file) for years, the only known suspect was Steven Hatfill (Fort Detrick sign or water tower) an Ivins colleague at Fort Detrick, the Army's biodefense labs in Maryland...who was exonerated just weeks agoSTANDUP: Officials say authorities were investigating whether Ivins released anthrax as a way of testing the vaccine he was developing here at Fort Detrick...just down the block from his home. (wife sticking head out door with cops) as police checked on Ivins' family (people walking around, various of house -- perhaps the closeup of number and then pullout MD AP IVANS neighbors said the FBI had been a constant presence nearby for a year, conducting surveillance...they just didn't know the target SOT: Natalie Duggan, neighbor (one of the first SOTs from her MD AP IVANS) "We never suspected Bruce...decent guy" (Duggan walking dog MD AP IVANS) but while she had no suspicions.. (wide of Bonnie Duggan MD AP IVANS) her mother said it might make sense SOT: Bonnie Duggan, neighbor 140125 MD AP IVANS "we knew that they were looking.... it does not take a rocket scientist that they were looking at him." (repeat Daschle letter) but some targeted in the attacks want more SOT: Tom Daschle, former Senate majority leader DC DASCHLE ANTHRAX 15:03:00 "we need to know exactly how Mr. Ivins was involved, if he was involved, how this relates to the case" (end with his headshot side by side with the anthrax spore closeup AP-APTN-1830: US Anthrax) Officials say prosecutors haven't yet closed the investigation..leaving open the possibility Ivins is not the only suspect.

hatemonitor, i pointed to the article as an illustration of just how early the iraq terror connection started getting media play. just looking at the article, it is apparent that they were trying to make the case for war from the get go. my inclination is to think that this man knew too much. if he did know too much and his early demise was suspected, i imagine that he may have left some sort of 'back-up' testimony in the hands of a confidante or the press.

timing is everything here....suicide, case closed, end of an administration hmmmm. all those lives lost so this administration could orchestrate a war...creating fear, hate towards muslims which has now filtered into this yr election...i agree nin1963 one would think this man left some evidence something to clear him or tell the whole story

Daschle wants them ... ( 4 months ago by IonicStormFront)

Daschle wants them bad...They tried to kill him because he flew over the original crash site in Shanksville. Prior to the trees being torched to make it appear as a plane crash. He knew the real truth and was whispering around the halls of the senate, it was at that point Anthrax was unleashed, to scare everyone into silence.

Yeah, I don't buy it for a minute. He was sent home from the psychiatric hospital after explaining in detail to his therapist how he was going to murder his co-workers? What a bunch of BS.

One of my favorite movie is "breach". This is going to be my future movie script soon. I wan't wait for hero or russian scientist or CIA or FBI or forenic to hunt the last brilliant microbiologist who created SARS. I'm writing movie script right now.

AP: "the Justice Department is expected to close the case this week, concluding Ivins was the mastermind and sole criminal behind the attacks that killed five and sickened 17 others in the weeks following 9/11." - Another lie that will be written into the history books.

Notice how no one ... ( 3 months ago by felicity5150)

Notice how no one is even suggesting the possibility that Ivins may have been ordered or contracted to send the anthrax. There is no solid motive for him to do it. Does that not make you suspicious?

its disgusting that everyone at home is thinking it is dodgy but the mouth pieces are not saying it how come that "neighboour" says "we???? knew" blah blah blah so it seemed likely they were looking at him, what the fuck is she talking about? quite a bit of inside information for a nieghbour, i dont even know my neighbours name never mind guessing they are being investigated by the police

The neo-cons have given up being discrete about their crimes. They believe Americans do not have the courage to stop them even if they know the truth. They are right. All of these crimes have the same M.O.: pre-staged ahead of time with the story line written, patsy chosen, fake witnesses prepared, patsy suicided, media denigrating patsy after he is dead. Case closed. I mean come on. Same old lies.

A lot of people are finally waking up to the truth that America has been hijacked by criminals of the worst kind. This didn't happen overnight. But now it appears there is no fixing this problem without bloodshed. That is a shame. America will not be destroyed but just taken over with a transfer of wealth and forcing all citizens to serfdom that the rulers monitor and control. Needless to say, freedoms will not exist. But at least you will be allowed to live if you obey every rule.

Especially when you ... ( 3 months ago by MystikWizard)

Especially when you look at his supposed victims. Why would someone like Ivins send these letters to Democrats like Tom Daschle and Patrick Leahy ... and send them to Liberal News Outlets like NBC News and Tom Brokaw and the editor of the Liberal Washington Post? His targets make zero sense. How and why did he allegedly choose them?

Yea, I think DR. Ivins is a fall guy, They are too quick to pin it on him and say "case solved " and move on! who is this therapist who said he is a homecidel maniac. ?? On what basis ? Did someone "grease" her palms to say this ?? And even if he was part of the Anthrax scare I dout he acted alone and was probably threatened to death !! But who is going to investagate ? The ones covering it up??

If you'll recall, ... ( 3 months ago by Foz424)

If you'll recall, the anthrax was sent to Patrick Leahy and Tom Daschle, the only two people who, as members of the judiciary committee, could have held up the passing of the Patriot Act I. If they don't vote it out of committee it never makes it to the senate. They make public comments that the bill is unconstitutional, they get anthraxed, and then they roll over like babies. There's a Coincidence Theorist's wet dream.

quite suspicious...HIV and Anthrax originate at Fort Deticks....however, I don't believe for one minute that Ivins is guilty. Sorry, not buying it.

Foz424: I think you're on to something there. With Leahy and Daschle being anthraxed, it points a finger at a liberal/democratic perp...the perfect scapegoat...all the while killing two birds with one stone...inciting FEAR to those who oppose the Patriot act.

Bruce is the patsy. The guilty got away and framed it for the anthrax letters. So typical and predictable.
