Wait a minute!!!!!!!
The guy who was going to be charged with the anthrax letters of 9/11 and "committed suicide" (wink wink) was a WHITE GUY WORKING FOR THE U.S. GOVERNMENT! But yet, the anthrax letters said, "DEATH TO ISRAEL" and "DEATH TO AMERICA" and "ALLAH IS GREAT"! And it was meant to imply that America and Israel are facing the same terrorists, Islamic terrorists. So, AT LEAST, we know this: Islamic terrorists didn't do the anthrax letters AND if this guy was the anthrax mailer he was trying to blame Islamic terrorists and pit both the United States and Israel against them! (that is called a "false flag") And ABC "news" at the time, quoted "sources" linking the anthrax letters to Sadaam and pushed this story to the American people! Who were ABC's "sources"? Because they knowingly lied to get us into the Iraq War!
Glenn Greenwald:
It was really the anthrax letters -- with the first one sent on September 18, just one week after 9/11 -- that severely ratcheted up the fear levels and created the climate that would dominate in this country for the next several years after. It was anthrax -- sent directly into the heart of the country's elite political and media institutions, to then-Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle (D-SD), Sen. Pat Leahy (D-Vt), NBC News anchor Tom Brokaw, and other leading media outlets -- that created the impression that social order itself was genuinely threatened by Islamic radicalism.
By design, those attacks put the American population into a state of intense fear of Islamic terrorism, far more than the 9/11 attacks alone could have accomplished.
Much more important than the general attempt to link the anthrax to Islamic terrorists, there was a specific intent -- indispensably aided by ABC News -- to link the anthrax attacks to Iraq and Saddam Hussein.
In my view, and I've written about this several times and in great detail to no avail, the role played by ABC News in this episode is the single greatest, unresolved media scandal of this decade. News of Ivins' suicide, which means (presumably) that the anthrax attacks originated from Ft. Detrick, adds critical new facts and heightens how scandalous ABC News' conduct continues to be in this matter.
During the last week of October, 2001, ABC News, led by Brian Ross, continuously trumpeted the claim as their top news story that government tests conducted on the anthrax -- tests conducted at Ft. Detrick -- revealed that the anthrax sent to Daschele contained the chemical additive known as bentonite. ABC News, including Peter Jennings, repeatedly claimed that the presence of bentonite in the anthrax was compelling evidence that Iraq was responsible for the attacks, since -- as ABC variously claimed -- bentonite "is a trademark of Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein's biological weapons program" and "only one country, Iraq, has used bentonite to produce biological weapons."
ABC News' claim -- which they said came at first from "three well-placed but separate sources," followed by "four well-placed and separate sources" -- was completely false from the beginning.

Vital unresolved anthrax questions and ABC News
We need a government hearing with ABC representatives! To ask them their government sources from 2001 who said Sadaam had something to do with the anthrax letters!
Did you notice? That all the reporting on TV doesn't mention that the anthrax letters were sent to the two biggest anti-war Democrats at the time: Tom Daschle & Patrick Leahy? And the heads of media? Was that to shut up the opposing party and the news media? Watch the news carefully!

George W. Bush, personally and officially, must answer to charges that he committed high treason and capital crimes, but also those who provided him with guilty 'material support' knowing that they would be enriched by his treasonous and murderous adventures against the innocent civilians of Iraq! Bush was bought and paid for by a tiny, ruling elite and Bush has represented only their interests. The rest of us were sold-out. There are two terms for this: 'high treason' and 'tyranny'! Both Bush and his financial supporters are guilty and should be tried in US and international courts.
Bush and what is commonly referred to as the Military/Industrial complex, consisting of the US military apparatus and the various 'military contractors' who maintain lobbies and offices in Washington DC, undertook a war of naked aggression against the people of Iraq. Every 'justification' for the 'war' has since been proven to have been fraudulent in every respect.
As Bush is a 'mass murderer' and a terrorist in violation of US criminal codes, anyone, therefore, who has knowingly provided him with 'material support' shares his guilt! That includes GOP 'fat cats' who literally lined up to finance Bush's campaign knowing that he would wage an illegal war on their behalf. The final shakeout of those who share Bush's guilt will most certainly include the leadership of the GOP, their biggest corporate sponsors, and media whores who provided favorable coverage quid pro quo!
