Now, the shit train of "anonymous sources" are claiming that Ivins had a lyophilizer - a fairly common piece of lab equipment, which could not have been used to produce the spores. This is the latest in a long string of increasingly desperate attempts to convince the public they've got the right guy - all anonymous, all unsourced. Who the hell are they talking to?

As expected, the New York Times is now citing the 2006 FBI opinion that the spores were not of exceptional purity or coated with silica - which is nonsense - that finding was made by USAMRIID researchers and independently by Armed Forces Insitute of Pathology scientists (who also clearly proved that there was no bentonite in the anthrax).

Unreal. The largest accumulation of unsourced garbage in recent media history, all presented as fact. What a farce.

A new book by the author Ron Suskind claims that the White House ordered the CIA to forge a back-dated, handwritten letter from the head of Iraqi intelligence to Saddam Hussein.

Suskind writes in “The Way of the World,” to be published Tuesday, that the alleged forgery – adamantly denied by the White House – was designed to portray a false link between Hussein’s regime and al Qaeda as a justification for the Iraq war.

Events are accelerating.

I'm not sure I see your point. Forgive me for not doing the requisite research on the letters.

Are you saying you've *never* driven over the legal BAC limit in your state, and that you're sure of this?

Further, are you saying that anyone who has is deserving of having their professional reputation being questioned on the basis of having done so alone?

Again, forgive me for not reading the seemingly thousands of letters this thread seems to be generating - but I really do think we should wait for the FBI's public statements to pass judgement. Even as much as they may be more nonsense designed to deflect attention from the true facts of the case.

The underlying issue of this thread is still the culpability of ABC News in passing on government propaganda as news and protecting their sources of falsehood/fear mongering, and what we can do to guarantee that they realize that people will not put up with this and that we demand answers.

We can speculate until the proverbial cows come home to no avail until we have some details. I have no problem with the actual FBI details being subject to scrutiny. But we don't even have them yet.

While we're all busy making the case for Ivin's innocence can we at least discuss Zack and his motives? I'd rather talk about that than WTC friggin 7 for God's sake.

Isn't there an early retirement age for weapons like the ones Zack may have stolen?

If you are alleging he had recent access, that would be important. Don't hold back now.

we think the script can be saved –

I know – it doesn’t show any consistency - but my das was gone and considering my age and that even ‘seasoned’ writers like LWM attacked and defended at the same time- a little Flipflopping should be tolerated – and now my dad is a back and we did some heavy brainstorming and i honestly think there might be hope for a ‘hot’ mainstream production, if Grace – i mean Glenn would consider some changes.

Our biggest asset is without any doubt our excellent research departement and we would like to put Baldie in charge (sorry about the ‘badie’ it was just a typo) - because he is one of the more ‘levelheaded dudes’ and if he could get some of the more ‘emotional types’ to tie the anthrax and the collapse of the Twin Towers together in a more creative fashion there might be hope (not im ‘general’ - just for the script)- but we should not be afraid of Kappa Kappa. This is one of the most intriguing details of the story and a real ‘find’ because little ‘sideways’ like that make a stereotypical story much more believable and they ad so much humanity to the central character (says my dad)

Just think about the opening shot with our hero wearing a blond wig - snooping around the mail boxes in front of Kappa Kappa. After such a shot it doesn’t matter at all, if the hero sits down with another lawyers discussing legalites (or is it ‘legalalities’?)

I know im silly but my dad is wearng this wig again. He also bought a blond one (to be like Andy Warhol not Nancy Grace) - but nowadays he only wears it driving- because if he gets photographed speeding he can tell them it was Andy Warhol and perhaps Glenn also had this need to get his inner Nancy Grace out of his system and that could be the triumph and the finale when he at the end of the script gets rid of wig and he will be our good ole Glenn again.

And furthermore Zack and Zock should get a part just for their names.

Ouch! Now how can I open a package without sweating after that!

he hast to be in the picture because he seems to know how things collapse.

LMW writes,

"It's less than a year since Cheney thought dressing up SpecOps or SEALS or whatever as Iranians might be a good idea and we already know about it, and it didn't happen. Cooler heads prevailed, and even leaked it."

Thank goodness! But in which MSM papers/sites did this information appear? If it appeared at all it was very few, to my knowledge, and they certainly didn't dwell on such horrific news. To even suggest such a thing SHOULD be headline news everywhere.

Rouge elements, indeed!

I think you missed his point. It was a simple minded point. If Cheney was overruled on one idea, then no false-flag operation has ever been done by the USA! As someone once said, for every complex problem there is a simple, yet wrong, answer.

You see, lwm believes that the USA is "exceptional" and its system will always prevent horrible things from happening. His doctors encourage this belief as it helps with his condition. :-)
