"Despite the growing indications that extremist elements " I wish we would get off this extremist nonsense. There is no "moderate" or "extreme muslims". All Islam is beligerent. Read the Koran Qu'ran.. Whatever it is called.

Te decision to mail antrax from Pakistan is an in your face means of showing that the anthrax is a terror weapon and that the anthrax letters in the USA are not the work of some right wing group and or a Ted Kazinsky style unibomber. Of course the FBI will disclaim any such conclusion.

Altho my sympathy is with India, this post is likely propaganda from India to turn Americans away from Pakistan.....
Unfortunately right now, America needs Pakistan...this is the rock and a hard place situation.

Nah, couldn't be from Pakistan, this is the work of right wingers. The FBI says so, it therefore must be true because they say it is. Has to be right wingers...has to be!

It would be more accurate to point the finger at Pakistani extremists, rather than at the nation of Pakistan. Why? Because Pakistani businesses, including their largest native language newspaper, the Daily Jang (published in Karachi), have also been targeted with anthrax laden letters. See the following post, among others:
Pakistan Businesses Receive Anthrax-Tainted Letters [NYT]

If the Pak anthrax is of the same variety as that sent to Daschle and co., and it is likely that it is, then that might indicate an abundant supply. A poster yesterday was wondering why the big anthrax attack hadn't happened, some respondents suggested it might be because of a limited supply. This would indicate otherwise. It might behoove us to keep our eyes open for the post Thanksgiving shopping season. A bit of anthrax released in our packed malls would be disastrous.

The muslim terrorist must have been pissed off that they weren't getting the credit so they decided to rectify the problem.

You'll understand if I have trouble beleving the Times of India about this. While I love them Hindus to bits, and would side with them against the Pak's in a heartbeat, this smacks of propeganda, pure and simple....

hmmmm........Pakistan seems to be more capable than we previously thought. This story proves NOTHING of the sort. We have had letters mailed in the United States and one letter mailed in Pakistan - but it's easy for someone to travel to a country and send some letters. Methinks you are an anti-Pakistan propagandist from your willingness to jump to conclusions here...

That could go a long way in determining whether the anthrax attacks are the work of the domestic disaffected or international terrorist, a question that has been vexing US authorities This will come as no surprise to FReepers who have been following news of the suspected Pakistani terror cell in Trenton, NJ, for weeks now.

Al Qaeda operates in many countries. And Pakistan is closer to Iraq than we are.

Instead of pointing the finger at someone new every day they should just find out who is responsible country or organisation.
When they have the proof they need to go public then go public, all this I think its them no its them no its them over there no here is confusing the issue and if they do find the right culprits will it be believable. The waters are just getting muddier and muddier, and it makes out that the intelligence agencies doing the search dont have clue

That diplomatic mail pouch aspect makes me wonder. Could the original supply have been transmitted into the U.S. via a diplomatic pouch, then distributed through the postal system? It would explain the further contamination of diplomatic mail around the world as bags hither and yon have traces of anthrax in them now. Then again, I suppose an anthrax-tainted letter could have been addressed to a diplomat overseas and thus tossed into one of those pouches, contaminating it and other mail around it, then everything put into that bag and forwarded elsewhere would carry anthrax spores with it. It's not unreasonable to think the evil ones would utilize the inpection-free status of diplomatic couriers to transport their goodies to operatives here in the U.S. Despite their animosity toward each other, if there's one thing that draws the Arabs together it's their hatred of us.

I won't be surprised to find Pakistan's link in this case. Read this from http://www.bullatomsci.org/BulletinWire.html
Press reports allege that Osama bin Laden may have acquired the materials necessary to make weapons of mass destruction, including bomb-grade uranium and anthrax. The Times of London and Britain's Channel Four quoted "Western intelligence sources" who said that bin Laden obtained uranium from Pakistan.
Pakistani officials say these claims are absurd, but Pakistani authorities have detained two former nuclear weapons scientists for questioning.
We are hearing a lot about from where Bin Laden could have acquired nuclear materials, anthrax spores and other mass destructive devices. But for some reason every time I look at the reports I heard more about Pakistani link than any others.
There has to be some fire producing such smokes. It just cannot be mere propaganda.

hmmmm........Pakistan seems to be more capable than we previously thought.At one point the Fibbies were seeking a Paki for questioning in the Trenton mailings.
If Pakistan is the souce of the problem, it will be covered over until we don't need them any more.

FYI, the much ballyhooed and beloved anthrax letters sent to the Pakistani newspaper "Jang" have been tested at Fort Detrick and found to have NO ANTHRAX....see recent post.
I'm telling you,these foreign tests are bogus.
