[history]
The anthrax-contaminated letter sent to NBC News anchor Tom Brokaw contained a short note with threatening language toward the United States and Israel, law enforcement sources told CNN on Monday. The note warned the recipient should begin taking medication immediately. It ended by praising Allah, the Arabic word for God.

Click on the link for the rest of the article, which is rehash. The content of this letter is big news though. Combine that with 2 hijackers renting condos through the Sun Publisher's wife, and James Woolsey just interviewed on CNN believing that Iraq did it. (He pointed out that the suicide cult in Japan, with masters degree biologists, couldn't create inhaled anthrax, they couldn't get the spores the right size. This anthrax was completely dried, had particles the right size to be inhaled, etc. ) Anybody have doubts as to who done it now?

I wonder what the hag from Harvard who blamed the right wing earlier has to say now?

I guess the first written confirmation of an arabic source of the anthrax letters isn't front page news. Oh well. My mistake.

Typical leftist tactic...blame your enemy for the actions of your own forces or your "fellow travelers." What a bunch of Borg drones...

Hmm. This comes right after several left-wing media attempts to blame it on the "militias," including stories that the FBI is concentrating its energies on the militia threat.
I certainly hope not. It's time that the FBI stopped spying on Catholic bishops, peaceful right-to-life protesters, and, yes, most of the militias. Maybe some are dangerous, I don't know. But the OKC bombing was NOT the work of militias. Clinton used that canard to get re-elected in 1996, but no evidence has ever been offered in support. Nor for his charge that Newt Gingrich and Rush Limbaugh were responsible for the violence.
Let's get real. We have real enemies out there. Stop chasing imaginary ones dreamed up in the fever dreams of left-wing ideologues and the Democratic demogogues who incite them.

"I wonder what the hag from Harvard who blamed the right wing earlier has to say now?" Who says Joe Bob isn't also an expert linguist and Arabic calligrapher...???

These case are totally unrelated to each other or to terrorism.
And even if they are related, they are being perpetrated by radical right wing militia nuts with buck teeth, NRA memberships, and a subscription to the Limbaugh Letter.

Allah is the arabic word for Allah, not what we call "God" - The Almighty is not represented by these maniacs.

I did for awhile, but not now.
To: dogbyte12
Gee, this news will probably come as a disappointment to some of the paranoid morons over at democraticunderground.com. A few of them have suggested that the person(s) responsible for these attacks is probably a freeper. I'm not making this up.
To: okie01
I think those guys who hit the WTC Towers must have had plastic surgery to disguise the fact that they were actually from Idaho
To: Mulder
Let's just think about this. Some letters were postmarked on Sept 18th. They could have been dropped in mail boxes earlier. So, for it to be unrelated, somebody in the US was storing Anthrax, thought that after the WTC and Pentagon hit, was as good a time as any to act. They had stored amounts of anthrax better than the Japanese suicide cult that couldn't infect anybody through inhalation even though they had biologists working for them, they also write letters threatening to the US, Israel, praise Allah, to divert us from who they are, and before attacking Fox or CNN, they attack the Sun who's editor's wife rented condos to two of the hijackers. They didn't know this at the time, but the tabloids were getting on their nerves.
Yeah, whatever.

And don't expect left-wingers to stop blaming the "militias."

Note to NBC employees - If you open a letter that praises Allah and threatens Israel please remember to wash your hands after reading the note.
To: dogbyte12
"It ended by praising Allah, the Arabic word for God."
All the lefty traitors from DUH must be apoplectic. They already had their blame game apparatus up and running.
F-U DEMMY LURKERS!

I just wonder how long the government wants to keep this quiet. They have known for several days now the content of that letter to NBC. They know it is an anti US, Israel, pro-Allah letter. Unless it's some american left wing or right wing nut case pretending to be arab... sigh... I think I give up. I will move along, just another isolated incident.

bump for DU lurkers
