Over the last week the NY Times and other more reputable papers have reported that 1 or 2 of the hijackers WERE treated for Cutaneious Anthrax and that the FBI knew about it since september 12 when the Dr.s that treated them reported it.. .. .No serious testing was done of the Hijackers houses (not on the level done in the post office or the congressional offices).. .. .The assertion is that maybe the FBI has covered it up to 1. reduce panic. 2. allow the president some breathing room so that he was able to act in the well thought out way that he did, instead of striking back 1 day later.. .. .Also, the FBI got large funding increases for so called domestic terrorists in the wake of Oklahoma City so many now always like the theory of domestic terrorism.. .. .Over the weekend CNN confirmed the story as well btw. though I didn't check the website I did see it on the news here.. .. .Cheers. .Wino
