Here's Maier's article, which talks about the visit:

FBI rush to judgmment on anthrax

Here's his original 1998 article with the quote from Hatfill:

First Response to Terror

"In wartime, truth is so precious that she should always be attended by a bodyguard of lies." -- Winston Churchill

From your first link at #15.

"...In June 2001, terrorist Ahmad al-Haznawi came to the emergency room at Holy Cross Hospital in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., with a dark lesion on his leg. Dr. Christos Tsonas has said the lesion was consistent with anthrax exposure. Experts at the Johns Hopkins Center for Civilian Biodefense Strategies concluded at the time that the anthrax diagnosis by Tsonas "raises the possibility that the hijackers were handling anthrax and were perpetrators of the anthrax-letter attacks."

Despite these apparent coincidences, recently retired FBI Assistant Director John Collingwood disregarded the link.

"This was fully investigated and widely vetted among multiple agencies several months ago," he said in a prepared statement. "Exhaustive testing did not support that anthrax was present anywhere the hijackers had been."

Funny, the same is true for Hatfill - but he doesn't get this same standard.

Re: your second link - Great Find!

My problem with Hatfill linkage arising from that article - he talks about a different mode of delivery. And never explained: if the anthrax was developed in a process unknown in the US, how did Hatfill invent it? He has no expertise in grinding, silica, whatever. Why wouldn't he use an American process which by proximity he can be implied to have known?
