As far as I can see...This is libel because it will never and can never get to court. I hope the family sues the hell out of them.
Saddam didn't have the flask at Ft. Detrick the anthrax attacks came from.
I think he was responsible but the evidence is weak. For instance, the flask of spores. Unless it is kept in a locked vault that only he had the key to, EVERYONE in the lab has unauthorized access to it when no one is around. Access to a lyophilizer (a freeze drying machine). Lyophilizers are common lab equipment and can be used by ANYONE with access to the lab.
The question is why he killed himself if he was innocent? Being accused when innocent got Mark Hatfield $5 Million. It might have been very profitable to attract some interest and claim career damage for the big settlement.
I’m beginning to think that maybe Hillary off’d him.
This doesn't square entirely with the idea that he was ultra-liberal.
The term is "stamped envelopes".
The fact that these very critical items (without which there'd be no case at all) are of such little interest to this guy that he can't be bothered to find out what they're called DOES NOT GIVE ME CONFIDENCE in anything else they've said.
Yeah, I know it's probably a small thing in the minds of most Freepers, but you'd at least think this guy would care.
His failure to use the correct terms tells me this is just another coverup for their failure to solve the case!
One of Saddam’s officials had a son who worked in the exact same lab, right? Did you miss that part ~ he’s been on TV several times this week whining about how poorly he’s been treated “lost my career, everything” ~

Small world eh?
Sure like to see how the FBI analysts handled that when they started looking up "whas' hoppen' man" in Greendale land. They definitely had to be "steered away from" Earth First!
Looks like we are speculating as much as the Left is.
Thanks
Ping for a thorough read.
Thanks for the info, coffee260
Your ping list please.
Not all speculation is equal. I realize I might be a bit biased, but it still seems more likely to me that when the list of potential suspects who had access to the anthrax includes 4 random white guys and the son of an Iraqi who happened to give radical Islamic speeches in support of al Qaeda on the weekends, that (especially considering the timing of the attacks) just maybe the al Qaeda guy might have been involved.
I also have to admit that I find it suspicious that neither the FBI nor any major media outlet happens to think it newsworthy to mention than a convicted al Qaeda operative worked in the lab.
And as long as we're speculating, I can somewhat excuse the media (it has pretty much been established that they are incompetent), but the lack of mention by the FBI makes me open to the possibility that they have been compromised in some way. If the Russians can successfully infiltrate their upper echelons during the prudent days of the Cold War, what is to make us believe al Qaeda can't in our time of political correctness?
Now watch and see how many dimwitted contrarian FReepers back off their conspiracy theories and start agreeing that this man was indeed the author of the anthrax letters.
Still waiting for them to make up a good story about AMI media...
For me, the anthrax attacks have never been about political partisanship. Yes, two Democrat senators got letters, but so did the National Enquirer, a nonpartisan rag, and the New York Post, one of the few conservative papers in the country.
Despite what the libs may want to believe, the pattern of victims aren't indicative of a particular partisan leaning on the part of the perps.
