Years ago the WSJ ran an op-ed which (to me) made a strong case that Ivins had no background that would enable him to make weapon-grade anthrax. The op-ed said that only two conclusions made sense:

1) Making weapon-grade anthrax is actually incredibly easy and we should all live in fear.
OR
2) Ivins was falsely accused and driven to suicide because the FBI wanted to protect the actual party that was responsible.

And which of these two possible conclusions is the worst?

Compare Ivins and Hatfil. They were on opposite ends of the pole.

Ivins offed himself because of the discovery of the ladies undies with his semen on them. That was the straw.
