"I think she is pointing out, the bug had not been bio-engineered, which would be a dead give away, it was State sponsored, plus much more difficult to manufacture. Few Countries have the altered bacteria, is my understanding."

Yup. That's what I understood.

Welcome to the forum, Glasser. What we all need is a good realistic dose of what is available to us, and you have provided some interesting news. I have to chuckle, tho. Was that a "hint" to go to the feed store and purchase animal vaccines? And, no, I'm not laughing about it.

I have heard that the resistance to smallpox is only good for 10 years after innoculation, so according to another poster we still have some resistance, albeit not much to the virus.

I know for a fact, though, that a few men and women in the armed forces, gave up their careers in lieu of taking the Anthrax shot. It's a crap shoot, I guess.

I would still like to see the people focused on supply and demand. The news networks are broadcasting 100% probability, or I wouldn't be alarmed.

"Cipro" is flying off the shelves. It's more valuable than Gold right now. I'm afraid even if I faked the greenish goo coming out of the sinus cavities, a saline solution would most likely be scripted. :~)

October 9, 2001 Issue of SUN Magazine at now Grocery Checkouts

...Page 6 -

...List of Staff = PHOTO ASSISTANTS - *Bob Stevens, Roz Suss (*now dead from ANTHRAX)

...Page 28 -

...Photo of a sneering JANET RENO superimposed on a burning WACO Compound with a heading 'RENO ordered the attack on David Koresh's Waco compound' as part of the 'LIBERTY & JUSTICE' Column where "Feuding columnists John and Liberty Justice agree to disagree on everything under the SUN"

QUOTE:

THE NEWS that JANET RENO wants the job as governor of sunny Florida has our cranky columnist John Justice under a cloud.

.."That woman disgraced the office of U.S. attorney general," rages John, "and she's killed more Americans than any serial killer."

...Of course John's wife Liberty disagrees, pointing out that RENO was the first female attorney general in history, paving the way for the other women to crash through the Washington boy's club glass ceiling.

...JOHN: Liberty, I've been sitting here thinking about JANET RENO running for Florida governor and the thought terrifies me.

...LIBERTY: Why should it? She's a very capable lady.

...JOHN: Capable? Tell that to the 82 misguided souls who were burned to death in Waco on her orders.

...LIBERTY: Miss RENO took full responsibility for the tragic accident. That shows courage.

...JOHN: Accident! SHE SENT IN THE TANKS! And when we're on the subject, she ordered in the sharpshooters at Ruby Ridge and even the most rabidly left wing Clintonistas cried foul at that one.

...LIBERTY: John, you're Monday morning quarterbacking. Miss RENO had to make those decisions very quickly and she later stood by them.

...JOHN: The kidnapping of little ELIAN GONZALEZ at gunpoint from his respectable, hard-working relatives was another quick decision, I suppose. Now the boy is being used as a political pawn by that bearded communist bum Fidel Castro.

...LIBERTY: John, JANET RENO has proved herself to be a strong, capable leader and she'll make a great Florida governor. She's concerned about education and the environment, and that alone puts her streets ahead of Jeb Bush.

...JOHN: When the votes are counted, JANET RENO won't be governor, no matter how much our socialist press wants her to be. The American public isn't stupid. We aren't about to forget that she's the architect of 82 deaths.

...LIBERTY: Well, John, JANET RENO is getting my vote. She's the right woman for the job.

Two months, eh... Suppose the terrorists had obtained anthrax spores and couldn't figure out a way to deliver them effectively. Instead they chose the WTC flameout mission. That raises a problem - what to do with the spores? Don't want to waste the spores, so a day or two before the attack, they drive down the street and spray the things out their car window. Mr. Stevens, a regular bicyclist, just happens along at the right time and voila... Anthrax.

I think that Atta's attempts to get information about crop dusters means he already had the germ agent. He simply needed to figure out how to spread it.

An interesting link I found when I searched for "anthrax" on the CDC website:

JAMA Consensus Statement - Anthrax as a Biological Weapon

It's a *bit* lengthy, but worth a browse, IMO.

My guess is that it looked like his lungs were clearing
while the bug made it's way to the lymphatic system so thry tagged him as "responding."

From what I have read "responding" (temporarily of coarse) is one of the symptoms.

So? The bio-engineered germs are State sponsored. No Country can come close to what Russia and the USA have. Both of these Countries had their labs severly compromised in the 90's. The very fact that smallpox is a viable weapon proves that.

What if, in swallowing the water, some of it got into his lungs (went down the wrong way, so to speak). Couldn't this explain the inhalational anthrax?

Thanks. You are right... worth the read. This refutes the post on here saying this Inhaled Fla. death would be no big deal before 11 Sept.

Aspiration pneumonia, and it would have shown up. From what I've read, the clinical signs are of inhalation anthrax. Classic case.

I have a funny feeling that there are some more cases of this anthrax case but the media will not reveal it. He died from breathing the anthrax spores in the air. And who do you think released this in the atmosphere? I remember hearing about this anthrax problem on a special documentation of two years ago which lasted a whole week on tv! So our government was well aware of this problem. And then all of a sudden somebody dies form such exposure!

I cannot believe the audacity of Liberty to make such a statement. Obviously she has no shame or regard for the laws.

There are more than 20 dedicated websites to the anthrax vaccine. For years (particularly the last two) the controversy and government cover-up surrounding this shot has created more than a flurry of publications, highly-trained military folks leaving rather than take the shot and literally thousands who took it becoming severely ill. This is the biggest cover-up in our government's history. It's a required vaccine series (six shots) with absolutely no proof it works for inhalation spores and they shut down the only place making the vaccine for repeated facility/production failures. For anyone out there who's interested in taking the vaccine, think again. Educate yourself first by visiting all the sites. The leading expert in the U.S. is Dr. Meryl Nass. She has a website (just type her name, I don't have the address). Then there's Sonny Bates, who left after a distinguished military career and the physician who refused to administer the vaccine after all he saw -- dishonorably disharged after courtmartial. Hmmm... Then there's Tom Colosimo who became severely ill after taking the shot, and the manufacturer's employee, a Mr. Dunn, who died after being required to take the vaccine. There's a Sandra Larson who was also military who died after the shots. And if you don't believe that, there's my husband who is a civilian federal employee who was required to take the shots while overseas... he became severely ill and is disabled after the shots. Total disability approved by his employer, the good old Department of Defense. Believe me, I'd much rather take common Cipro for the rest of my life to prevent 100% of anthrax exposure (which is extremely rare) than take that vaccine and degrade my immune system in such a way that disables you. It's something you either die with or of, but there is no treatment for the systemic reaction to this vaccine. It's a huge, captive experiment by our wonderful government. God help those people if they begin cranking out more of this vaccine after recently halting. Read up, decide for yourself. I've seen it first-hand and it's ugly. God bless!

it's an effective tactic to prevent panic, but it can blow up in your face if people later find out the incidents were covered up. i hate being kept in the dark.

...Liberty's Brainwashed by TV viewpoint is the Womens' Wave ~HILLARY~ has used for the last 8 years to control US and then for her final solution for America in the future. Thanks CBS-NBC-ABC-PBS-CNN for making it all possible ...but Thank GOD ...now not probable.

Perhaps there was an accidental release of the spores by the terrorists and the real attack has not occured yet or there has been an attack and the terrorists mechanism of dispersal was not very effective.
