Hi Condor; Re: "It strikes me that a disgruntled US militia type who hates the American govt. could inflame things by sending Anthrax to ME countries ..." If it turns out that (1) there really is anthrax in Pakistan and (2) that anthrax turns out to be identical to the strains found in the US, then I'll believe that it was done by the Taliban. Until then, I've still got my doubts. They've just got too many people looking for anthrax to be avoiding false positives. Note that the US didn't have any anthrax indications until we cultured it out of sick people, by contrast, these countries are finding it before anyone gets sick. -- Carl
