Scott Ritter blames right wing "McVeigh Groups" for Anthrax

Scott Ritter on Fox and Friends doesn't believe the anthrax is from Iraq but from "McVeigh" type "right wing" groups here in the USA.

[GuillermoX]

He says "clearly it's not weapons grade or weaponized anthrax".

Good work guys...another anthrax story...keep them comming...lets build the hysteria.

[Ed_in_NJ]

Makes me wonder if anyone's been keeping an eye on i42's FALN friends lately.

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

I am furious at the attempt to pin this on the "right-wing." Usama's aide was just charged in the embassy bombings, a man who lived in Texas. The militant Muslim presence within our country is now established. An hour at the computer visiting Muslim chat rooms and newsletters show that these guys dislike all the infidels, the Capitalists, but blame the "liberal secular" culture more for corrupting their young. They blame the public schools, the news media, Hollywood and Planned Parenthood, etc., and make no secret of this.

Where's Joe Biden and his limo when you need him?

How would we get broadsided by terrorists if we didnt focus on Anthrax? < /sarcasm>

This was already up, which is why yours got pulled.

[HairkingNH]

You are right on. These pious self-righteous people in the media are so afraid of being beat by their rivals, that they are all out-doing one another to scare up more stories on Anthrax. I had to laugh when the dim-witted CNN anchorette fluttered her eyelashes and asked "do you think that we in the media are causing panic in the general public?" and the so-called "expert" says "no, at least you folks at CNN are bringing on the experts to give the public an honest assessment of the situation." Barf Barf Barf!

Pull mine too, I guess we were writing at the same time. besides I spelled inspector wrong
Thanks

[RWG]

If it kills its weapon grade, duh?

[copycat]

Et tu, Scott?

[BlueAngel]

I heard it too, and it really made me mad for this guy to through this out there without any proof. I wonder how much Terry McAuliffe and the DNC paid him.

[GuillermoX]

This is not an "anthrax scare story" ie "bird crap is anthrax, call the cops". This is the opinion of a knowledgable man as to the SOURCE of the poison, which was spread by someone.

[BlueAngel]

through=throw (sp.)

[Ozymandias Ghost]

How do they know it's a "right wing" group was responsible??? Why not "left wing" or resident terrorist cells? (Ritter's former boss, Richard Butler, was on TV Wed telling us it was almost certainly NOT a "home grown" anthrax ...likelihood was Iraq or Former Soviet Union source then!)

[DB]

Scott Ritter is an idiot. His evidence is zero. Yet he spouts off as if he "knows" something. He's the same idiot who said they found everything Saddam was hiding in Iraq… Sure you did Scott… While those truck loads of nothing left the buildings before you were allow in… What a fool.

[Bartholomew Roberts]

I didn't like him on 'Three's Company' and I don't like him now.

Maybe Chrissy planted the Anthrax!

[gumbo]

"McVeigh" type "right wing" groups here in the USA.

There's evidence McVeigh and Nichols were patsies of Middle-Eastern terrorist cells.

If there is a "McVeigh type" American involved, that doesn't necessarily mean Iraq isn't.

[jwalsh07]

While not "weaponized" the anthrax in the capitol was high grade as regards to the size of the spores and their ability to disperse. Ritter isn't a creative thinker, he's stuck in the "right wing extremist" box.
