I know A LOT of CTer's love to push that 9/11 was a set up so GWB could start a war and all that crap.

I was reading something on Wiki that got me thinking:

From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anthrax_attacks (hilights are mine, obviously)

Wiki Article said:
False report of Bentonite
In late October 2001, ABC chief investigative correspondent Brian Ross linked the anthrax sample to Saddam Hussein; on October 26, "sources tell ABCNEWS the anthrax in the tainted letter sent to Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle was laced with bentonite. The potent additive is known to have been used by only one country in producing biochemical weapons — Iraq.... it is a trademark of Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein's biological weapons program...The discovery of bentonite came in an urgent series of tests conducted at Fort Detrick, Maryland, and elsewhere," [76] on October 28, stating that "despite continued White House denials, four well-placed and separate sources have told ABC News that initial tests on the anthrax by the US Army at Fort Detrick, Maryland, have detected trace amounts of the chemical additives bentonite and silica" [77] and several times on October 28 and 29.[78]

However, on October 29, 2001, White House spokesman Scott Stanzel "disputed reports that the anthrax sent to the Senate contained bentonite, an additive that has been used in Iraqi President Saddam Hussein's biological weapons program." Stanzel said, "Based on the test results we have, no bentonite has been found."

Here we have something that [erroneously] links the Anthrax attacks to Saddam and Iraq. If TheyTM really wanted to push a war in Iraq, why not just roll with this? Why discount the error at all? I mean, linking the Anthrax attacks to Saddam within a few weeks of 9/11 would surely validate any war the CTer's think was originated on purpose. This guy at ABC practically handed the gubment a "Go-To-War-For-Free" card.

Anyone else see where I'm going with this? Does this make any sense? :confused:
 
If they were the evil NWO it would make sense to run with the disinfo but in reality they couldn't push that point too far since the actual source of the anthrax was relatively easy to identify from its genetic make-up.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2001_anthrax_attacks#Anthrax_material

All of the material was derived from the same bacterial strain known as the Ames strain. Prior to the attacks, the Ames strain was believed to be a common strain isolated from a cow in Iowa. After the attacks, the investigation discovered that it was a relatively rare strain isolated from a cow in Texas in 1981 - a critical fact in the investigation.[54][55] First researched at the United States Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases (USAMRIID), Fort Detrick, Maryland, the Ames strain was then distributed to sixteen bio-research labs within the U.S. and three other locations (Canada, Sweden and the United Kingdom).[56]

Right, but my point is that the general public didn't know this. All GWB had to do was surpress the real makeup of the strain, go with the ABC story...and *boom*...he's got his war!

That would be far simpler than rigging the WTC with thermite, launching missiles at the Pentagon, and shooting down FL93...

My point is that the CTer's are looking for some imaginary smoking gun that the gov't is evil...but the gov't was quick to point out that the Anthrax attack was not from Saddam instead of using it as ammunition.
 
If the Bush administration had the skill, influence, and power to do all the things attributed to them re 9-11, it should have been a snap to pin the anthrax on Saddam.

Hell, they managed to fool the entire scientific and engineering community in multiple countries that the WTC collapses were possible without CD ;)
 
BentoniteWP is a "potent additive"?
There seems to be at least one term there that doesn't mean what I think it means.
 
Yes sabretooth, apparently the NWO is some masterful super-genius organization that can involve thousands in a giant conspiracy and keep it all a big secret, yet somehow forgot to plant WMD's in Iraq, decided not to involve any Iraqi's in 9/11 and failed to link anthrax to Iraq when they so easily could have.

It was all in the plan I tell you. I swear, I swear it was, but the Director of grandoise plans left his laptop in a McDonald's and no one could remember the details so we had to swag it.

Damn clown got our plan..........

They keep forgetting to send me my paycheck, too :mad:
 
This is where the truthers REALLY start looking like creationists--when confronted with things like this their usual response is, "maybe they had a reason for not planting WMDs in Iraq or not pinning anthrax on Saddam. Who are we to understand the ways of GWB?"

Obviously, it was so that their paid debunker shills could use the fact that there were no WMDs as "proof" that there was no gubmint conspiracy!!!111!1!!

I would like to find a poll of truthers, to see how many of them are creationists? :)
