Oh no, Mike, let me apologize, I suppose I was being sloppy in comparing the two. Let me be clear. I say Russia certainly did it, but Hatfill, Ivins, I don’t know for sure-they could be guilty, or else be patsies or pawns or innocent bystanders.

There is no pawning or framing Russia, who has been killing and otherwise oppressing journalists, dissidents and potential rivals like Litvinenko, Politskaya, Lebed, this is axiomatic, a certainty, history repeating itself beyond farce, before communism (Rasputin anyone?), back to the formation of the Rus by Vikings. It is the culture.

It is insulting to deny. Their actions shout Look at me, I did it! and we refuse to believe them; no wonder they resent us. They want the credit.

… obviously access to anthrax and access to radioactives are two different things…poisons and poisons…similar to thallium vs. ricin, but obviously polonium has strategic implications.

And you seem confused. I am not saying Russia used anthrax on us. I am saying they didn’t. Anthrax as found is within the means of a lone wolf with talent. Like letter bombs made with wood.
