My thanks to Glenn and you fine posters here.

I have only read through 38 pages of the comments, but have not seen any references to the book, CROSSING THE RUBICON by Michael C Ruppert. There is much there on Biological Warfare and anthrax beginning page 505, Chapter 29.

Page 506, para 5: "The administration quickly rushed to promote Cipro. . . . Revelations that the White House staff had begun taking Cipro nearly a month before the anthrax attacks had sparked a dramatically sharp rise in Bayer's stock price."

Page 509: Part II - A Trail of Dead Bodies and legislation

"By the end of Feb. 2002, a statistically striking number of world-class microbiologists were starting to drop unnaturally dead all over the globe." . . .

[Ruppert states as many as 14 and a different report states 19].

Page 511: 02/28/2002 (FTW) - "In the four month period from Nov. 12 [2001] through Feb 11 [2002], seven world-class microbiologists in different parts of the world were reported dead. Six died of "unnatural" causes, while the cause of the seventh's death is questionable.

In the six weeks prior to Nov. 12 [2001], two additional foreign microbiologists were reported dead. Some believe there were as many as 5 more microbiologists killed during this period, bringing the total as high as 14."

Here on pages 511-512 the author names many of these dead and describes their credentials and work. The common denominator for them ALL was that their research relied heavily on DNA sequencing studies.

Page 518: "After three months of conflicting reports it is now official that the anthrax that has killed several Americans since Oct. 5 [2001] is from US military sources connected to CIA research. The FBI has stated that ONLY 10 PEOPLE COULD HAVE HAD ACCESS, yet at the same time they are reporting astounding security breaches at the biowarfare facility at FORT DETRICK, MARYLAND - - breaches such as unauthorized nighttime experimenting and lab specimens gone missing.

The militarized anthrax used by the US was developed by William C Patrick III. . .He has worked at both Fort Detrick and the Dugway Proving Grounds in Utah. Patrick is now (book pub'd 2004) a private biowarfare consultant to the military and CIA. Patrick developed the process by whichi ANTHRAX spores could be concentrated at the level of one trillion spores per gram. No other country has been able to get concentrations above 500 billion per gram. The anthrax that was sent around the eastern US last fall [[2001] was concentrated at one trillion spores per gram, according to a Jan 31 [2002] report by Barbara Hatch Rosenberg of the Federation of American Scientists."

I highly recommend this book, but going in you should know that the fear you experience will need to be converted to the steel of determination to know and overcome.

The author, Michael C. Ruppert, has a website at:

www.FromTheWilderness.com He paid a high price for his intelligent pursuit of Truth. "They" got to him in 2006 and he became very ill, nearly dying. Friends got him to Canada to medical care and he survived, but no longer maintains the website, however it will remain available with all past reports. I am very grateful for Michael, and wish him well.

I clicked your signature and learned so much more about our old friend. Last time I checked FTW he was back on the west coast and had his dawg. I hope he someday fully regains his health.

We could sure use his expertise on this current matter, but he deserves to live in peace. We must do our best to follow the map he gave us.

Thank you again for the link.

Has anyone else noticed that Duley said she had worked with Ivins for six (6) months; and had been working with the FBI regarding Ivins for six (6) months. . . .hmmmmm.

Was Duley an undercover agent? or "asset"?? Did FBI pay her to frame Ivins? Was her court "testimony" scripted by FBI?

Also, a reporter for Bloomberg.com, Robert Schmidt, called the Comprehensive Counseling Associates where Duley had been a program director and worked with Ivins. His call was reported 08/02/2008 and "a woman who worked there told him that she (Duley) no longer worked there". [take the money and run??]

There's lots of very thought-provoking comments about all this at EmptyWheel. Many comments there are by a psychiatrist/psychologist and they are really good.

FBI Seizes Library Computers, by Comfort Dorn & Adam Behsudi

. . . Darrell Batson, director of Frederick Co. Public Libraries, said two FBI employees came to the downtown Frederick library either Wed or Thurs. The agents removed two public computers from the libraries second floor. They told him they were taking the units back to their office in Washington, D.C., Batson said.

This was the 3rd time in his 10 years with FCPL that the FBI has come to the library seeking records, Batson said. It was the FIRST time they came without a court order. [new FISA, huh,?]

The library's procedure for such requests usually requires a court order, however after the agents described the case and the situation, he was persuaded to give them access, Batson said.

"They had an awful lot of information," he said, but he was not allowed to discuss specifics.

. . . the library has several dozen public computers. The agents seemed to know which ones they needed access to, he said.

Anyone with a library card and a PIN number can use FCPL computers. Without a library card, a person can get a temporary pass to go online.

Batson said the agents made no mention of Bruce Ivins, anthrax or Fort Detrick.

"Obviously it coincided with the events everyone is talking about", he said.
