I recommend that you carefully peruse the Amerithrax web site and also do a little digging into the background of FBI Special Agent Bob Roth, the agent who has been giving Hatfill all this grief. This is not a serious investigation. It's more like a Potemkin Village. The FBI may have a serious investigation going on in parallel (it is interesting that news reports say their effort is divided between two teams), but the Washington Field Office-based "Amerithrax" operation is simply a diversion.

Thanks for the link.

For one, I went to the page "Linguistic/Behavorial Analysis of Anthrax Letters". I was surprised that there was no analysis of the qualities of the writer of the letter, let alone why this person would say "Allah is Great", if he meant it or it was a deflection. Who writes methodically and poorly like that? No analysis. Maybe there is one, but they sure aren't telling. Might be a foreign guy?

As for two investigations, they are probably 1. The first one and 2. Operation Rosenberg, shoved on the FBI by congressional inquiries and Justice Department politicoes. Heck, if the NY Times says Hatfill is the guy, case closed!

On the early, big day of news about Hatfill, various people came out to make their gloating appearances. I recall that five suits (lawyers?) with the Justice Department (not FBI people), one speaking, were all smiles, implying that great progress was being made, they're closing in, words to that effect. I think I mentioned that to Archy. The whole orchestration of events was like a "perp walk", without handcuffs.

Haven't seen the J.D. guys since. Perhaps because Ashcroft decided to get the face time in connection with this big bust, in retrospect something he might regret, and if appropriate, I hope he chastizes those who convinced him.

The way the Justice Department and the FBi have handled their end of the anthrax investigation has been a grievous insult to 800,000 postal workers in this country!

It's a sick joke that the guy who concocted the Ruby Ridge coverup was put in charge of this investigation. All of those guys over there at DOJ and FBI involved in this ought to do us the favor of seppuku - soon - we need to get some real investigators on this case.
