At newsmax.com, Phil Brennan, who used to work at AMI, and whose son still does, has started a blockbuster series that goes back to the Bob Stevens case:

FBI and Anthrax: Another TWA 800 in the Making?

Interesting final two paragraphs in that second article to which you provided a link:

Moreover, the FBI, which dismissed the letter out of hand and denied it had any significance, for reasons not disclosed asked AMI not to go into detail about it with the media or anyone else. The whole thing just vanished from the investigative radar screen.

The Newsweek report that the Lopez letter arrived Sept. 4th, seven days before the events of the terrorist hijacking attacks, would have assumed enormous significance had the letter been kept. It would seem to point the finger of guilt directly at the 9-11 hijackers, most of whom lurked nearby until leaving for their deadly rendezvous with the World Trade Center and the Pentagon.

So the FBI was anxious to divert our attention from that letter way back when. I think we can guess why

Thanks for the ping. Good article.
The Ploughshare Foundation, far-left .
  • Young scientists in Russia and China who, for the first time ever, have established non-governmental arms control research centers to study and ultimately influence their governments' nuclear weapons policies.
  • The International Campaign to Ban Landmines, whose efforts yielded a global treaty to ban anti-personnel landmines in record time;
  • Citizens' groups from Moscow to Siberia that are demanding the cleanup of contaminated lands and rivers, taking lessons from U.S. activists working to save the Columbia River from radioactive devastation;
  • The Mainstream Media Project, which places compelling experts on commercial and public talk radio programs broadcast worldwide;
  • An international network of organizations working to stop the trafficking in small arms to regions of conflict.
  • A public campaign to compel the U.S. government to take its nuclear weapons off high-alert status as a first step toward their eventual elimination.
  • The first academic research program focused exclusively on the changing nature of contemporary armed conflict.
  • Barbara Rosenberg of the Federation of American Scientists provides an update on the ongoing anthrax investigation, including allegations that "the FBI knows who sent out the anthrax letters, but isn't arresting him, because he has been involved in secret biological weapons that the U.S. does not want revealed." (February 5, 2002)


With contributions from thousands of people and a few foundations, Ploughshares Fund has made grants totaling more than $20,000,000. We have proven time and again that modest amounts of money given to the right people with the best ideas can yield profound results.

The Mainstream Media Project, which places compelling experts on commercial and public talk radio programs broadcast worldwide;
Democracy NOW!, Barbara Rosenfeld, guest at protest of Bush decision to NOT join international ban on bioweapons.
  • Dr. Barbara Rosenberg, professor at State University of New York and chairman of the Federation of American Scientists working group on Biological Weapons.
  • Dr. Jeanne Guillemin, Senior Fellow at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Security Studies Program and author of Anthrax: The Investigation of a Deadly Outbreak (University of California Press, 1999, just out in paperback).
  • Dr. Susan Wright, historian of science at the University of Michigan and Director of the North-South Alliance on Biological Warfare and Disarmament.

Prof. Rosenberg has been a busy, busy woman since the anthrax attacks. Check out the organizations quoting Barbara Rosenberg, Google search page. Why didn't the press? They started this attack on Dr. Hatfill by quoting Prof. Rosenberg.. eager, as usual to point the blame away from themselves and their partisan co-conspirators of spin.

One other thing, mr...

"...according to the AP's Laura Meckler. Such statements do not help the FBI with its credibility problem. But then, Laura Meckler has a huge credibility problem of her own."

Laura Meckler's problem is merely part & parcel of the bigger cancer, here.
The Associated Press & their contributing network of Liberal-Socialist sycophant shills & smear artists have been a blight on this nation & a disgrace to the spirit of The United States of America's Second Amendment since at least 1992.

Question is, then?
When are people going to make it SOP to check the source of these "stories" FIRST before Word #1's ever believed?
A sane person would never swallow a known poison; so, why are we so careless & reckless about what we're feeding our brains?

The Associated Press & a few other of America's, "News Services" have worked extremely hard at earning the contempt of every American citizen from coast-to-coast.
Since we never seem to wake-up to their continual bombardment of complete GARBAGE, they're surely laughing their a$$es clean off.

...the AP monster won't stop this crap; until, they're "killed" by the free market.
