LIVING PROOF:
Did Bush administration attack peace movement with military grade biological bacteria? (Bob Fitrakis, October 4, 2005, The Free Press)
What do we make of the Saturday, October 1 Washington Post headline “Poison Found in Air During Anti-War Protest”?Washington D.C. Public Health Director Greg A. Pane posed the right question in the Post article, “Why that day? That’s what is not explained.” Pane pointed that it was “just this 24-hour period and none since.”
The Post noted that Pane found “. . . it was puzzling that the finding was from a day when the mall was packed with people.” [...]
The wholly implausible “working hypothesis” put forward by Pane is that the bacteria found in rodents, rabbits and other small animals just happened to occur on the same day the trains failed to run on time and more than quarter of a million people assembled to directly challenge the Bush regime’s illegal war in Iraq.
Coincidence theorists. You gotta love ‘em and their great faith in believing in the statistically improbable occurrence of events, rather than an alternative hypothesis: that friends of Bush (FOBs) planted the tularemia bacteria, just as they most likely sent anthrax to Democratic senators and the media.
As always, the conspiracy requires a level of secrecy and efficiency that government never achieves as well as the complete failure of the plot. If the fascists who are secretly running the nation could secretly gas their opponents, why wouldn't they kill them? Posted by Orrin Judd at October 5, 2005 12:00 AM
Where do you think the anthrax and the tularemia came from? A terrorist? If they had it, wouldn't you think they would use it to kill?
I didn't catch the whole story, but exactly how was the tularemia discovered?
The fascists in control don't want to kill Americans; they want to keep them scared and control the way they think about the necessity of the monopoly of American force.

The fact that the trains get off-schedule every other day, and that they were dealing with an abnormally heavy traffic load on that day, should in no way detract from the theory that it was a one-in-a-million coincidence.
