What was the MOTIVE supposed to have been for this guy Ivins? Sex?? Drugs?? Money??? Or was poisoning the US Senate office building with anthrax supposed to improve his golf game????
That would compel anyone to reverse the entire course of his distinguished life and become a serial killer, wouldn't it?
The NY Post angle.
They claim he could not make the aerosol.
Her organization wants to open US weapons research facilities AND defensive bioresearch facilities to international inspection. Or shut them down, whichever comes first. Her group is royally POed that the US pulled out of one of those Bioweapons treaties when Bush was elected.
If they are sufficiently wacko- and I think we can as easily suspect that of them after Lynne Stewart became the Blind Sheik's facilitator - then is it possible that such people could work with a terrorist, domestic or otherwise, to create a bioweapons incident to further their agenda of opening up the labs or even get the Dems to shut them down? Nass's group from college was already involved in an effort to shut down a tritium processing facility I believe, or some missile project. Can't remember which but I've got their web page in here somewhere, maybe I can find it. It would somewhat explain why the targets would be Daschle and such.
But it could be the scientist wasn't a friend at all and the lefties are glomming onto him to cast more suspicion on US researchers in our the labs and get a "reform" effort going that might shut them down, and perhaps to get the FBI to stop digging before something more damaging to them turns up.
At least he didn't do the wrist-slitting thing like the UK bioterrorism expert Kelly. "Many dark actors playing games" and all.
