So if it was the 9/11 hijackers, why did they do everything possible to kill as FEW people as possible with the anthrax they had?
Because the anthrax, the most highly sophisticated ever seen by US authorities according to Newsweek, was the product of the terrorist's sponsor state, and that state can only hope to avoid retaliation by threatening us with WMD. Guess you weren't listening to President Bush's speech to the UN on Thursday, but then, your always out of it, aren't you, John?
I've heard this argument before. It was Hatfil, not Atta because 'real' terrorists would have killed more people. Well this ineffectual' attack stood a good chance of killing top Congressional leaders. It shut down the DC mail for months. It bankrupted many businesses. It closed the Senate for months.
