A reporter at the New York Post contracted Anthrax (Skin version). Check out the URL below to read her story. It's a 'good' story, and it's statement at the end of the article. We will NOT be scared off.

I like the comments but I think that they are misdirected. Meaning that so far things tend to point more to a "local" group rather than Al-Qeada. Still, the spirit is right: we cannot, and will not, let them win.

You, and I really mean this when I say it dude, KILL ME!

Nothing that has been released so far has proved it's Bin Laden or disproved it. They are still investigating! With the US government/military trying to find and eliminate Bin Laden, they're still saying they don't know if he's connected.

Of course, all American's know he didn't mail the letters himself anymore than he flew the jets into the WTC,et al. I think all American's suspect that he had his dirty little fingers in the process though.

And please tell me by "local" you don't mean what I think you mean! Please? Tell me I'm over reacting and it will be ok. I'm a little high strung today, so help a brother out, ok? Please?

After all, you've already "killed me" once, it wouldn't be fair to do it agian

Didn't they arrested 2 white American with regards to a few envelopes.

Regardless if they did or not, it just doesn't sounds right. Think about it. Bin Ladden as always used high key targets: the Embassies, the USS Cole, the WTC, the Pentagon and I'm sure I miss some.

Now, we have small case here and there but they are all low key (except for the House of Representatives). Some of them hoaxes, some of them legit, with the Anthrax traced back to US factories.

NO, it's just not his signature. It's not big enough. If he would have targeted the livestock, that would have been BIG. But a news anchor here, someone working with media there, an low key elected representative. It doesn't compute. It's terrorists activity allright, there's no doubt about that. But I doubt that it's Al-Queda.

Yes, by local I mean an American group. Think Timothy McVeigh. Now, the stage is set for them to make a statement to and get away with it because all the attention is set on Bin Ladden. It almost worked for the Oklahoma City bombing... they could get away with it now

I agree with the thinking here, but remember al queda foriegn agents become "locals" for considerable time before taking action, and the cells are small, self-contained, but with limited communication options. It is possible that these "low key" attacks are big enough because of our constant media attention, using our own against us again. (those bastards!!!!!!) I wont rule them out until we find who is actually doing it.

I'm not categorictly rejecting that it could be Al-Queda, I'm just saying it doesn't follow the pattern. Don't forget that getting Anthrax, especially from an American factory, isn't an easy job. Let's face it, with all the scrutiny towards people even ressembling a Muslim, the odds are small that they would have risked mailing letters... exposing a network for such a small result. No, it's just not big enough. That's why I'm doubtful that it's Al-Queda.

Which would mean that they have another Big thing in the works if it wasn't Al-Queda

Ryanamur didn't you see Bin Ladens pretaped message after the attacks? He practically admitted to doing it. Why are you persevering with the "Al Queda may not have done it" line. It's a bit late for that.

I will post more seriously tomorrow, but for now...

2 white guys have been arrested? Oh wow? Damn, that's amazing, you must be right, it's an American/Canadian/English conspiracy!!!!!!!!!!!!

The nearly 1,000 arrests worldwide are now justified by the arrest of 2 white guys!

And I thought Canadians were only good for making bacon! I thought conspiracy and bacon were mutually exclusive, but now I understand, Canadian Bacon is just their way of saying, "world, kiss Canada's ASS."

After all, that is what your government's current and past policies are remembered for across the globe.

We don't hold the "Pizza Hut" and "Papa John's" incidents against you personally. I really think we're on the same side of the pizza, and, after all, we know you were just trying to put meals on the table for innocent, American loving Canadians.

American's love pizza with Canadian Bacon, too. But you have to understand, your past international pork ventures have now really pissed off the anti-porkist across the globe.

It's not your fault thought, don't get me wrong, you're government brought it on you. I still hope we can still be friends, even though we all know Canadians are screwed up. It's just not your fault

We tried to warn you about the consequences of altering bacon, but would you listen? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

You're always too busy screaming those wild Canadian battle cries to listen to reason!

"The Martyr" (excerpt)

There is sobbing of the strong,
And a pall upon the land;
But the People in their weeping
Bare the iron hand:
Beware the People weeping
When they bare the iron hand.

--Herman Melville (written after the assasination of President Abraham Lincoln)

He might have taken credit for the actions of another group.
