It can be heard in staff meeting all over the country, "Now if we can pin this one on Richard Jewell we could kill two birds with one stone. We get the heat off us and we save face in that Atlanta Olymics mess. Not only that, the media will love us. They get vindicated as well."
Any one can guess about any of this stuff.
But to present mere guesses as “fact” is misleading and confusing.
My favorite guess is this....
If the guy loaded the envelopes in a house or apartment, there should be some spilled or leaked anthrax that should infect other people in the vicinity sooner or later. But if he loaded the envelopes in a special science lab, there might not be any spilled anthrax at all.
As to whether or not the anthrax is from here or Iraq, or whether or not the guy is an Arab or an American nutcase, there is not enough information yet.
Where does Alamo-Girl state that this summarization of Freeper research and possible profile of the anthrax terrorist is "fact?" Perhaps I missed it?
But if he loaded the envelopes in a special science lab, there might not be any spilled anthrax at all.
And such equipment can't be had just anywhere. Neither are purchases for such equipment generally made with more or less untracable cash, so there'd likely be a paper trail back to the financial sources behind such an effort- in which case it wouldn't be *just one lone crazed gunman labman*.
From the very beginning of her highly speculative essay. When she says, “The perp is here on a student VISA.”
She not only doesn’t know who the perp is, she doesn’t know if he/she is here on a “student visa” or not. She states almost all of her speculations as if they are facts.
What she should do is make suggestions based on possible clues. For example....
"Might be here on a student visa. Might be Islamic or Middle Eastern."
But even if she does that, we all know that stuff anyway.
Just because several Arab apartments have been searched, that doesn’t mean the perp is an Arab. She is playing hunches based on the Day 1 suppositions and guesses. There is nothing new here. I’m already guessing the guy is probably an Arab, but I don’t know that for sure.
This part is really stupid....
”He’s been to the doctor’s office at 1542 Kuser Road in Trenton NJ. While there he accidentally infected the accountant next door at Civale Silvestri & Alfieri CPA, 1540 Kuser Road.”
Does she really know he’s been to 1542 AND infected someone next door? That is nonsense.
We Americans see and hear so much news, so much conflicting news, and so much incorrect news, her guesses will go into our subconscious minds, and within a few weeks we won’t be able to remember if we heard this stuff on the news or where we heard it. It’s a bunch of rambling guesses and nonsense that will just confuse people. If, later, any single one thing that she said above turns out to be true, she will claim she predicted the entire outcome.
Alamo-Girl: Outstanding work as usual. Let me know as this pans out.
