Anthrax Attacks Linked to the Bush Administration?

Remember how, right after 9/11, the anthrax attacks began, and targeted mostly liberals and Democrats, and the media tried to link it to Iraq? Interesting links are emerging. This is from the Glenn Greenwald blog on Salon.com

ABC and Brian Ross -- back in October and November 2001 -- were the driving force, really the exclusive force, behind news reports strongly suggesting that Iraq and Saddam Hussein were responsible for the anthrax attacks on the U.S. There are several very important issues arising from those events which I strongly believe merit real attention. This post is somewhat lengthy because it is vital to set forth the facts clearly.

Last week, I excerpted several of the Saddam-anthrax reports from ABC and Ross, but there are others. ABC aggressively promoted as its top story for days on end during that highly provocative period of time

Now, think about this.
  • Who had a motive to link it to Iraq? (knowing all that we know now~)
  • Who had the contacts, and opportunity, to leak the information to people who ABC would use as sources?
  • Who would send anthrax to Democrats and members of the media who are perceived as left of center--but not to any Republican?
