CarolC,

Reference to CIA/FBI was tongue in cheek.

My point is, the anthrax stuff has all the earmarks of a CIA misinformation/destabilization campaign being waged by Americans with a specific political agenda, not a campaign by Arab terrorists.

"A different kind of war" may well include CIA misinformation campaigns against the American citizenry to create an effective smokescreen to allow highly unethical and illegal covert activities by our government to take place without close scrutiny, both here and abroad.

And is it ever working! In my local daily paper here in the hinterlands, outside the page 2 "Nation/World" section, the entire front section of the paper was all terrorist, anthrax, and 9/11 related stories. Not one single news item. Not one.
