I hate to say you sound like a nut, but well.... you do. sorry.

Best theory running is that Saddam was behind it, and we don't want to cause panic that we had been attacked with bios from another nation. Just a hunch.

Personally, I wish, if this is true, now that Saddam is gone, that we release the case. I don't see any possible harm in doing it.

Pre-Iraq, we probably would have been required by our policies to nuke Iraq in retaliation (seems like over kill, but that is the unspoken policy). Now, we have occupied, what is there to loose in revealing the connection?

No, darn it. I missed her.

We need advance notice from her!

FNC just did a segment on that too. Said that Clarke attributed a statement to her that she NEVER made.

He also said that Rumsfeld made a comment at a meeting nad press reports and records put Clarke out of town at the time!

Clarke is a serial liar. A malignant narcissist.

I suppose no one in a govt., or anywhere, will admit they were duped...

rosenberg... meselson... kristof... all partisans.

partisans, of the left or of the right, have readily predictable reactions. so partisans are easy to manipulate.

yes- rosenberg, et alia, duped govt officials.

but- were they themselves manipulated into doing so?

who first whispered hatfill's name into rosenberg's ear?

It's possible in that little world he was well known. Reportedly he's no shy dog.

And he might have seemed "right wing"

And the scientist theory, coupled with the "right wing" assumption, even with a patriotic motive, was not created by BHR. So maybe encouraged by the govt. "profile" Hatifll was one of the guys who fit best into it's general assumptions. Then it took off from there, whatever the motives.

from http://www.nti.org/d_newswire/issues/2001/12/04/8s.html -

Rosenberg said she developed her theories by analyzing publicly available evidence and with input from other scientists, and from "inside" sources.

and later in the article -

"There is explicit speculation floating around the informed bioweapons community in the United States that this might have been diverted from a U.S. biodefense program," said Wheelis.

sounds like someone planted the seed of the idea in her brain, knowing that it would take root and that her left-wing bias would nurture it predictably.

who first whispered hatfill's name into rosenberg's ear?

Dr. Meryle Nass?

[piasa]

Excuse me, that's Meryl Nass, who belongs to both the federation of American scientists and an anti-sanctions on Iraq group called "Physicians for Social Responsibility." She worked in Cuba she claims at a time Cuba was accusing the US of waging biowarfare on them and causing an outbreak of eye disease; she submits essays in Red Flags Weekly, etc. She is said to have worked in Rhodesia as well. She is reportedly close to Rosenberg.

Rosenberg and Nass are comrades.
