Anthrax Redux

Almost 7 years ago, a month after 9/11, we were hit with anthrax attacks. How did our leaders react?

McCain used it as a talking point as to why we should invade Iraq.

There are only two questions:
1. Did this guy act alone?
2. Was it a suicide?

Think about it: government employee takes anthrax out of ultra-secure laboratory, mails it to congressional offices. People die. Republicans use it as a reason to invade Iraq (remember, Iraq supposedly had WMD's like anthrax). We go into Iraq, over 4,000 soldiers die, and we find no WMD's. The FBI takes 7 years to even attempt to indict this guy, he is not arrested, and now supposedly commits suicide.

I'm not one to promote conspiracy theories, but those who do are going to go nuts over this one.

The gov't did not release this. This is just bullshit and a stupid conspiracy theory meant to scare us.
