Ok, this scares the HE!! outta me. I'd almost rather not know though, seems like there isn't much we can do to protect ourselves against this sort of attack.

Makes me wonder how much the government knows about this sort of thing but manages to keep quiet for fear of starting mass panic.

Just to be on the safe side. Where is a good place to buy Gas masks and chimical suits?

Interesting. The guy is a member of Aryan Nations, and you're saying he's been "labeled" a white supremacist.

You're right. Larry Wayne Harris "labeled" himself a white supremacist. It was a voluntary decision. And now he's claiming he was with the CIA (he never claimed this before), and he's been bagged for mail and wire fraud--so why are you defending this piece of human debris?

Anyone not from the area who had to go in it, would have to be immunized first... of course getting samples of that particular strain to create the vaccine would be NOT A PROBLEM...

As for sunlight, isn't the reason it disinfects, the ultraviolet component? Crews could use powerful ultraviolet lamps to sterilize areas not exposed to sunlight.

I can find no reason to doubt his credibility. I think people like Dr. Len Horowitz and Joyce Riley have stood up for him. About the only thing he said above that is questionable is that anthrax spores have a 5,000 year shelf life. I did find one reference that they would live for centuries in the soil. They may have been found in Egyptian pyramids (anthrax is thought to have been one of the plagues of Egypt).

Check this out (from http://www.brown.edu/Courses/Bio_160/Projects2000/Anthrax/bio_terrorism/history.html):

The Sverdlovsk Incident: April 2, 1979
Less than one gram of anthrax spores were accidentally released from a military bioweapons production facility in Sverdlovsk. Sverdlovsk, which is now known as Ekaterinburg, is a Soviet city in the Ural Mountains. The invisible cloud of anthrax spores traveled as far as three miles from the site of release and killed at least 70 individuals (1). Only one fifth of those who contracted the disease survived (7). The Sverdlovsk outbreak is the only known case of an inhalation anthrax epidemic. The Russians attributed the anthrax infections to the consumption of contaminated meat. US intelligence analysts, however, were suspicious, and in 1992 they were finally allowed to visit Sverdlovsk and investigate the cause of the anthrax epidemic. Although most of the data related to the epidemic had been confiscated by the KGB, American scientists were able to find the pathologists who had performed the autopsies. 42 of the autopsies were associated with classical inhalation anthrax. The discovery was also made that the incubation period for inhalation anthrax was two to forty-five days. This finding was in vast contrast to the animal studies that indicated that the incubation period was between two to six days. These findings imply that antibiotics might be administered. Boris Yeltsin finally admitted that the anthrax epidemic had been a result of an accidental release of anthrax spores from the biological weapons production facility (1).

His claim to have been with the CIA is a new one, and please go back and read post #15 for Paul Harvey's "Rest of the Story."

I can find LOTS of reasons to doubt his credibility. For example, he LIED to get a sample of plague sent to him, he is backed by Doctor Joyce Riley (she announced to the world on the Art Bell show that MOST of the Desert Storm contingent of the 3rd Armored Division had died of Gulf War Syndrome--this came as quite a shock to the 3rd AD Association, which was having a reunion at the time), he claims that Iraqi women have NO sense of OPSEC or self-preservation (hint: they don't call Iraq "The Republic of Fear" for nothing) and he now claims to have been a microbiologist for the CIA--which is apparently a new one.

In short, you've been taken in by a hustler.

Which means that what, a total of 97 or 98 persons caught the disease. And how close was the closest person who caught it?

Duh, my math is getting very low tech (i.e. wrong!) 87 or 88. 5/4 of 70.

Depends I guess on what "they" is being referred to... Iraq dare not because it would get nuked in answer. Random terrorists on the loose who are fanatic for "Islam"? Dunno, I suppose a suicide agent could scatter some of this stuff at the moment of blast.

Thanks for the post. I have no idea who this Larry Wayne Harris guy is, but I'll do some research tomorrow. But even if he's some nitwit with his head firmly planted in his posterior, anyone who laughs at the possibility of a nuke/bio/chem attack anymore is an idiot.

Every since the WTC/Pentagon attack, all I've been thinking is "Thank you, God, that this didn't happen while Clinton was in office." I fully expected for Bill and Hillary to look the other way (or worse) while a WTC-type event unfolded before our eyes. I thought it may happen at Y2k, and then I feared he would "facillitate" such an attack to stay in office. All I can say is... "There IS a God, and he hears our prayers."

One more thing: Basic disaster preparedness consists of a gas mask, guns for self defense, and a good supply of K+ iodide and tetracycline/Cipro. Anyone here who worries about being called a nutwing can just pull up a photo of the non-existent World Trade Center for a little motivation. If you wait until something happens, even if it's on the other side of the country, it'll be too late. Mass panic will ensue because there won't be enough to go around.

For instance, does everyone know that our govt. doesn't keep enough K+Iodide on hand to go around? When Three Mile Island was in danger, they were scrambling to find enough to give to the area residents "just in case," but they couldn't do it in time. They weren't ready. They're VERY lucky nothing happened.

If we're going to be attacked, I at least want a fighting chance to live so I can experience the pleasure of watching the perpetrators get nuked back to the Stone Ages.

Scariest article we've ever read.

The dumdumb populess will never notice; they haven't even noticed the pervasive milk-inky dripping billowing chemtrails gridding and polluting the skies.

May God help us all.

Hmm. I wonder how the stocks of major drug and chemical companies have done in the last few days. There may soon be a mass order for this stuff from the Feds and State authorities.

"...this came as quite a shock to the 3rd AD Association, which was having a reunion at the time"

That's a classic line, my grand friend. I listen to the Art Bell show once in awhile in the car when there's nothing interesting on the news, and Art Bell has a lot of guests who are just knowledgable enough to scare people but don't really know the whole story. It makes for excellent radio ratings.

One last point: In the city where I live in Orange County, CA, the city's police fly a Jet Ranger helicopter over the city 24/7. The chopper is well-armed from what I hear, and if anyone attempts to do any "crop-dusting" around here they would probably be shot down, despite the chance of crashing into someone's house.
