So what is supposed to motivate Hussein to do attack us with antrhax, according to those who pin the deed on him?
I guess someone might speculate that Hussein would be hoping to inflame Muslims in the Middle East through instigating a massive U.S. response. But how Hussein is supposed to see his own government surviving an American retaliation, whatever else might come of the situation in the Middle East afterward, is very hard to see.
So, I'm skeptical that Hussein himself is behind any anthrax release in the U.S. That terrorists might have gotten ahold of anthrax through contacts in Iraq without the Iraqi government knowing about it seems more likely to me.
Kudos to you - with all the panic and confusion it's hard to be clear headed and look for the big picture. What's unfolding here is a series of hints that point not to a terrorist operation, but to an intelligence operation. You can't have all the precision, all the sophistication, give no warning signs and leave no traces, the next day cough up weaponized anthrax here and there, and yet be a deranged opium-smoking lunatic issuing 'religious decrees' out of a cave 10000 miles away. We need to be level-headed and work our way back to vision and motives, without automatically assuming or excluding the involvement of anyone. Who's expecting to accomplish what?
