Anthrax, Iraq, and several suspicious deaths...


I have always thought that the few meager explanations provided by the government and mass media regarding the Anthrax Attacks of 2001 just left more questions than answers...

Recently a documentary linking those attacks to the death of David Kelly, a British Weapons Inspector that challenged the governments assertion that Iraq possessed WMDs. To be fair, I have only read the text at this point (which reads like it was written by Ken Follett) and haven't had a chance to watch the documentary or do any fact checking so reader beware. Definitely one of those stories that send you down a rabbit hole and not for the faint of heart:

(full diary and parts of the documentary at the link)

and if you REALLY want a scary briefer, just go to this keyword search of the Daily Mail and scan through the headlines associated with David Kelly... yikes.
