ANTHRAX ATTACK - UNANSWERED QUESTIONS

Buddy,

Here's a site where you might want to pose some of your questions about the anomalies to the anthrax "story" we are being told by the media and the government.

unansweredquestions.org

<Copy>

What is the connection between the anthrax scare, MEHPA, Ridge's proposed plan for mandatory smallpox vaccinations under MEHPA, and the mysterious death of several top microbiologists? And why hasn't the press investigated inconsistencies in official reports of Don Wiley's death, or the relationship of Wiley, Que, Schwartz and possibly other neutralized microbiologists with the Howard Hughes Med. Institute?

"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
What has happened to press coverage of the Anthrax episode, and why does the FBI investigation of Don Wileys death differ from that of the Memphis police?

"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
How is it that our allegedly inept FBI and CIA managed to identify by name all 19 of the September 11th hijackers within 24 HOURS, yet they still, (we're told), don't know the identity of the person(s) who sent anthrax letters to two Democratic legislators last October?

"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
An article in the Washington Post on August 30, 1982, page A3a, reported " NIH approved a Harvard Medical School experiment to take the gene for diptheria toxin and splice it into the bacterium e-coli." The article reported that Scientists generally agreed that if such a strain escaped from the lab, the result could be disastrous. A researcher at Johns Hopkins called the experiment one of the "riskest ever allowed". Was this Harvard researcher Don Wiley, who was killed apparently, in Memphis?

""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
Only Democratic Politicians Senator Tom Daschle and Senator Leahy got anthrax letters. To me it appears a right whinger did these anthrax attacks. Why hasn't the Justice Department found this person yet? Because they don't want to expose a Republican as the culprit. Why? Why? Why?

"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
How many people in the Bush administration have ties to the pharmaceuticals industry? What percentage of Bush's medical/pharmaceutical policies are being written by the pharmaceuticals lobby--including during the anthrax scare? Did anyone in the Bush administration profit from the anthrax scare? Why did the administration recommend Cipro against anthrax? Cipro, which is made by Bayer, is more expensive and more toxic than the usually recommended antibiotics against anthrax, such as penicillin and dioxycycline. Why did the DoD contract the military's entire supply of anthrax vaccine with one company, BioPort in Michigan, when: BioPort is run by a foreign national, the FDA cited them for safety violations, and there's some question about the safety and efficacy of BioPort's vaccine? Why doesn't the DoD make the vaccine themselves? BioPort is co-owned by German-born Fuad El-Hibri, whose of Lebanese descent, and former Joint Chiefs of Staff Admiral William Crowe, Jr., under Reagan/Bush. [Crowe was also a friend of Clinton's and served as ambassador to the UK, where he probably met El-Hibri.] I've read that BioPort may be owned in whole or part by the Carlyle Group, which is one of the largest US defense contractors and where Bush Sr. is an advisor? Also read that the bin Ladens may have been investors in the Carlyle Group up until the end of 2001? If the bin Ladens were invested in Carlyle Group, and if Carlyle does own all or part of BioPort, did the bin Ladens profit from the anthrax scare? There are lots of dots here: between El-Hibri, Crowe, the Saudis, Citigroup, the Pentagon, Carlyle Group, the Bushes, Deutschebank, anthrax, which I've been unable to fully connect so far in terms of the revolving door between big business and politics?

""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
Is it true that the Bush Cabinet began taking Cipro the morning of 9/11? If true, they began taking it before there were any anthrax attacks.

"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
Did the White House staff really start taking Cipro a week before 9-11?

""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
What about anthrax? There seems to be consensus that it came from Ft. Detrick; how could it have been disbursed so rapidly after 9-11 if the military had no prior knowledge of the imminent attack?

""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
Inquiring minds want to know.....
