Of course the Bush Administration wants to link 911 and the anthrax attack to Saddam Hussein in order to justify a regime change by force if necessary.

Let me ask you to state a position, so I can be clear on where you stand. The question is with respect to the White House's confirmation this week to the Los Angeles Times that 9-11 operational commander Mohammed Atta flew to Prague last year to meet with an agent of the Iraqi government. Here are three mutually exclusive and jointly exhaustive possibilities. Tell me which you favor:

1. The White House is lying about the meeting in order to gin up support for an attack on Iraq.

2. They are not lying, the meeting actually took place, but it has taken them eleven months for them to establish this fact, and that's why they only confirmed it publicly this week.

3. They are not lying, and they've known about it for a long time, but didn't feel it was appropriate for the public to understand the connection between Atta and Iraq until now.

To understand the anthrax story, you need to understand the Prague story. To understand the Prague story, you need to understand the anthrax story. Until you understand both, you are truly clueless as to the real nature of Bush's War on Terrorism.

Try to stay focussed. Your "theory" is that Iraq is behind the anthrax mailings, the U.S. government has known this from the very beginning, but by direction from the highest levels has ordered a deliberate deception in the FBI's anthrax investigation because the U.S. government cannot admit that it is being blackmailed by Saddam Hussein.

It has long been known that Saddam Hussein has WMD and uses them as a deterrent (blackmail) against attack. It has long been known that the U.S. is unprepared for a biological attack. A regime change in Iraq, possibly by force, is the stated policy of the Bush Administration, which raises the risk of an attack using WMD i.e. the Samson syndrome. It is self-evident that the possibility of a final war with Saddam Hussein requires time and preparation.

There is no need for the deliberate and elaborate conspiracy in the anthrax investigation, with which you seem to be obsessed. In fact, in terms of credibility it is counter-productive.
