"The current evidence puts us at mail boxes in Trenton, where the three critical letters were mailed," [Mueller] said. "And it expands beyond there, and some of the leads may well take us overseas.

Our home-grown-right-wing-extremist-anthrax-cookers must have tentacles abroad!

[gumbo]

Whoops, that source is supposed to be the Trenton Times, not Trrnyon. Little creative spelling there.

"...Our home-grown-right-wing-extremist-anthrax-cookers must have tentacles abroad!..."

LOL!

When these third world 'American right wing extremists' go to KKK and Aryan Nation meetings do they have to sit in segregated seating areas, or do they get a special name tag that makes them 'Honorary White Men' for the evening?

Efren Jimenez, owner of Tico Verde at 1001 N. Olden Ave. and landlord of the six-unit apartment building, said an FBI agent watched the mailbox near the apartment for the previous two days, giving no indication of the raid to come

(LOL, is the FBI that obvious in their stake-outs?)

aristeides, you were asking last night if anyone knew the location. My speculation was wrong -- it's North Olden Ave. instead of Greenwood Village on Norman Road.

I guess this proves it was right wing vegetarian faction of the lesbian Jews for Jesus cult that helped the Supreme Court hand the presidential election of 2000 to President Bush. </sarcasm>

Nothing conclusive here except that law enforcement are on the job. It will be no satisaction to me if they discover these anthrax warriors are home-grown. I just want them found and stopped. I suppose the only reason some think it might be an Aryan/ Militia type is because they have made hundreds of threats over the past few years and are known to be evil and crazy enough to do it.In some ways it would be a relief though - it might be harder to comprehend but easier to deal with if they are Americans on a rampage. But -...as I said before - the people responsible are very sick and very evil and whatever their politics I know they are not mine. Bio-terror is NOT a conservative value!

ping...does the C last name sound familiar from 10/22 post..

I guess the publishers of Chris Matthews' new book should retouch the cover photograph to show some egg on his face.

Speaking of Princeton, anthrax testing lab may be coming to Hopewell.

Chaudhry, who said he is a permanent resident of the United States and has applied for citizenship, recently returned from a trip to Pakistan.

And they've just recently discovered anthrax at a Pakistani newspaper office. Just another coincidence...

a building in an old Polish neighborhood

Ah-ha!

The anthrax mailers appear still to be sending stuff from Trenton. This from this article in today's Washington Post, White Powder Is Discovered In Unlocked Car in Bethesda:

Also yesterday, the U.S. Treasury closed a mail facility near its main building in downtown Washington after a suspicious letter was found bearing a Trenton, N.J., postmark. The letter, with a handwritten address, was not sent to any high-ranking Treasury official.

I wonder when the suspicious letter was postmarked.

The enemy within.

"One (agent) just said, `If we find out you know about anthrax, we'll have to catch you and send you back to your country,' " Khan said. "I said prove it."

Out of the mouths of "bin Ladens"......

FBI agents asked Chaudhry what kind of schooling he received while growing up in his native country, inquired if he had ever worked in a laboratory and asked if he had any friends in Florida

Friends in Florida? Whatever could he mean by that?

Btw, just saw on another thread (re the suspicious incident at the Cambridge Galleria mall) that the Ryder van's licence plate was registered in Florida.

This guy was a follower of Patohama Omar Buchanastan.

Go Pato, Go!!!

"They're going after everybody, any Pakistanian," he said.

No Pakistani would ever say "Pakistanian". They call it "Pakistani"..

[M. Thatcher]

A local law enforcement source, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said federal authorities are strictly enforcing immigration laws

What a concept.

Today's NY Daily News has more news that is apparently about this raid. One of the men in the apartment was carrying letters in a plastic bag when arrested. FBI Detains 3 Trenton Men - 1 carried letters in Ziploc bag.
