Give me YOUR facts, then.

The only facts I have are what has been released to the public. And that is that the identity of the anthrax mailer and the source of his anthrax is still unknown. Perhaps you are privy to knowledge outside the public domain. If not then you are just guessing and trying to pass off your guesses as facts. Which points to another fact...nothing new here.

The identity may (officially) be unknown, although the source of the Anthrax is internal--pretty much has to be.

But use a little logic instead of just emoting, because you hate the terrorists.

This was NOT the sort of job they'd do. Say what you will about them, but they typically don't lay on an operation unless it's going to be big.

Obviously 9/11 was big. USS Cole was big. Khobar Towers was big. The African embassies was a big op. So on and on, all the way back to Beirut.

They carefully mark their targets, train, and carry out the operation, so as to make the maximum "noise" and garner big publicity.

The silly little Anthrax thing was what a kid with a pipe bomb mentality would have done had he been able to get "weaponized" (another garish, silly label; in this case it just means "spores") variety of Anthrax.

It was a domestic nut, a Ted Kasczinsky type. No doubt about it.
