Who carried out the anthrax attacks?

[Truth2Tell]

Simple question: Who carried out the anthrax attacks? Of course none of us actually know the answer, so please feel free to speculate and share your best guess.

1. Minimal research is required to determine 9/11 and Amerithrax were

inside jobs ordered directly from the OVP.

2. Dr. Bruce Ivins with others..BUT I think Dr. Ivins didn't know...

he was part of the plot.

3. Various unknown members of the Bush Administration. n/t

4. Agents of the biotech industry aided by people in government.

Not Ivins.

7. Not possible

The skills needed to do this are not common. I work in biotech and I'm pretty skilled--I couldn't do it. The amount of people who can work with a level 4 bioagent WITHOUT killing themselves is very small..The people at Detrick ARE logical suspects.

10. And the people in private industry who make anthrax vaccines?

:shrug:

[EFerrari]

12. I didn't mean nonskilled people. I meant skilled people

working for biotech. And both Ivins and Hatfill were among those, right? As was Dr. Kelly.

What I meant was, this isn't about our government as much as it is about industry.

5. It was the perfect combination of Iraq propoganda & intimidation of the Democrats

No one else but the Bush administration had anything to gain from it.

6. Dr. Ivins with others

He has the skill set to pull this off..but from what I know (and I've actually seen some of those Detrick labs) he could NOT have done this alone

8. Col. Mustard in the Library.

9. with what? nt

[flvegan]

14. Well, anthrax.

Right?

15. I think when you're playing Clue

you have to name all three: who, where and what.. or your answer is void.

But I suppose we can give you a pass this time. :)

11. Dick "Faceshooter" Cheney, in the Bunker.

[Swamp Rat]

13. Hmm...

16. I say it was Hatfield at the request of others

Because he was the one that got the big payday of 5 mil.
They always pay off the perpetrator to keep them quiet and kill the potential whistle blower.
