I know what you mean. I started another thread a few days ago using this material but my head was spinning with so much info contained in the post so I shortened it.-Tom

Thanks. It just keeps going on and on and on and on. It's like a federal government corruption template. I mean, the FBI just now decides to check Atta's car and residence for the presence of the deadly bacterium. If it wasn't so serious, it would make me laugh.

FBI (Federal Bureau of Incompetence) at it again

FBI Testing Atta's Car, Residence, for Anthrax

In response to reports that the FBI had overlooked leads tying Twin Towers kamikaze hijacker Mohamed Atta to the recent wave of anthrax attacks on the U.S., the bureau now plans to test Atta's rental car and Florida residence for the presence of the deadly bacterium.

The decision to probe a possible Atta anthrax connection, first reported by Fox News Channel late Saturday, comes after a report last week that the FBI had specifically declined to sweep Atta's car and home for traces of the bioterror agent.

"In Florida, agents haven't tested cars or residences used by some of the hijackers, including those of Mohamed Atta," the Wall Street Journal revealed Thursday. "FBI officials said testing isn't a priority, because they assume that by now, the hijackers' cars and apartments would have been cleaned, removing any trace of anthrax."

"At this time, there are no plans to go back and check [Atta's car and apartment] for traces of anthrax," Special Agent Rene Salinas told the paper just four days ago.

The FBI has previously tested Atta's other personal effects, such as clothing he left behind, for anthrax traces.

Weeks before the Sept. 11 attacks, Atta and several of his fellow hijackers were spotted at Florida airfields inquiring about renting cropdusting airplanes, a move investitigators suspect may have been linked to bioterrorism.

Atta was also reportedly spotted in a Florida pharmacy with reddened hands, a symptom some say could have been caused by anthrax contamination.
