It must be remembered that this took place under Bill Clinton’s reign.
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?
My favorite blog said it years ago.
Dr. Ivins was harassed to death.
The known, verifiable facts are that Dr. Ivins is something of a scientific prodigy whose pastimes spoke of doing service for the benefit of good: he served his country by his work (36 years an expert in his field), his community through Church and the American Red Cross, the cause of life by his convictions. Those are the facts. Innuendo, suspicion and systematic character defamation cannot outweigh them.Somebody at the FBI probably won't lose his job if they can pin this on someone. But Dr. Bruce Ivins got crushed, and his reputation, and the dignity of his surviving wife and twins, publicly demolished...
Case closed?
Hardly.

Any of you people still around and remember this??
Just read the most recent book on this. Not a shadow of a doubt in my mind that Ivins did this.
