When Dr. Steven Hatfill Refused To Submit To The FBI's Character Assassination Of His Person & Beat Them In Court The FBI Began Attacking Bruce Ivins

Dr. Bruce Ivins never did get the chance to defend himself in court, instead being driven to the point of total madness by a long-term FBI COINTELPRO used to force him into the commission of suicide. Ivins was eventually hospitalized for erratic behavior and soon after reported as having committed suicide. Yet, there are some who believe that Ivins was in fact like Steven Hatfill, just another FBI scapegoat who may have been murdered by FBI operatives in a made to appear as suicide, when the FBI could no longer keep Dr. Hatfill under a veil of suspicion as being the anthrax mailer, and sought to tie up loose ends in an effort to close their investigation.

A more obscure scientist by the name of Dr. Don Wiley may have also been targeted for a similar attack shortly after the anthrax mailings. Wiley was also reported to have committed suicide after being subjected to an FBI smear campaign. However, serious questions have arisen in regard to the possibility that Wiley was murdered in a made to appear suicide. Especially when one takes into account the FBI's claims that Wiley's death was "not the result of foul play," while deliberately ignoring the claims of seasoned investigators who've stated that Wiley was more likely the victim of a homicide.

If the FBI was not directly involved in the covert murder of Wiley, the bureau was likely covering up for another Intel agency which may have targeted Wiley for execution.

Moreover, the FBI all but ignored the possibility that Lt. Colonel Phillip Zack, a far more likely suspect in the anthrax attacks was the likely perpetrator in the anthrax attacks; and that his part in the anthrax attacks was likely an adjunct the Intel black operation which took place on 9-11.

Colonel Zack was one of a handful of government scientists who had access to the Ames strain of anthrax found at the U.S. Military's Fort Detrick, Maryland biological weapons' laboratory. Moreover, to this day, the U.S. media has virtually ignored the fact that the Bush Administration was placed on the antibiotic Cipro (a drug which can actually prevent an intended anthrax target from becoming ill when exposed to the dangerous bacteria, at least six weeks before the anthrax attacks took place. The Bush Administration had to have been warned that these attacks were going to take place and took the precautionary measures necessary to protect themselves, while failing to warn the rest of the American people that there was a likely threat of an anthrax attack.

And of course, while the FBI destroyed the reputations of Dr. Steven Hatfill, Dr. Bruce Ivins and Dr. Don Wiley, the last two of whom were reported to have committed suicide (but were likely murdered), Colonel Zack was never subjected to the same scrutiny by the FBI. Why not? Did the FBI know that Zack was the anthrax mailer? Or were they just told by the Bush Administration or others within the hierarchy of the U.S. Federal Government to avoid an investigatation regarding Dr. Zack?

Brown Stone Operations & Other Intel Entrapment's
Moreover the slander campaign which further mired Dr. Wiley's death is typical of the types of smear campaigns which are used to vilify those targeted for illegal Intel sting operations like COINTELPRO, yet who in spite of such outrageous entrapment schemes remain unindicted. The brown stone operations (also known as sex-blackmail rings used for the purpose of extortion) run by agencies like the CIA and FBI, as well as one which the media never spent time covering in the 1980's regarding the Reagan/ Bush White House (Known as the Franklin Cover up) are also typical of such Intel orchestrated black mail schemes.

The motivation is always the same -- Intel's abject control over our elected officials. How they think and act, as well as vote on specific issues which allow the military industrial intelligence complex to maintain their control over the United States. U.S. war policy has always been a key focus here. Any U.S. politician of moral character who votes against additional military spending is a prime target for a * brown stone operation or other entrapment schemes in which to defame them.

Moreover, the FBI is notorious for aiding and abetting the Intel community's crimes, rather than exposing them. Where the FBI truly excels is in violating the constitutionally protected rights of American citizens - something this Nazi idealized agency has spent its entire existence doing.


Who Killed Dr. Don Wiley?

"Knowledgeable U.S. and foreign intelligence sources have revealed that Wiley may have been silenced as a result of his discovery of U.S. government work on biological warfare agents long after the U.S., along with the Soviet Union and Britain, signed the 1972 Biological Weapons Convention. Wiley's was not the only suspicious death of a scientist with knowledge of biological defenses. Just three day before Wiley's death, Dr. Benito Que, a Miami Medical School cellular biologist specializing in infectious diseases, died in a violent attack. The Miami Herald reported Que died after 'four men armed with a baseball bat attacked him at his car.' A week after Wiley died, Dr. Vladimir Pasechnik, a former scientist for Biopreparat, the Soviet Union's biological weapons production factory, was found dead from an alleged stroke in Wiltshire, not far from Britain's Porton Down biological warfare center. Pasechnik had defected from the Soviet Union in 1989 and was an expert on the Soviet Union's anthrax, smallpox, plague, and tularemia programs. "

The Death Of Dr. Wiley -
'Murder, They Wrote'
By Wayne Madsen

6-4-2

The one person who was in a position to know about the origin of the anthrax sent through the U.S. Postal Service met with a very suspicious demise just a month after the attacks first began.

The reported "suicide" and then "accidental death" of noted Harvard biophysics scientist and anthrax, Ebola, AIDS, herpes, and influenza expert, Dr. Don C. Wiley, on the Interstate 55 Hernando De Soto Bridge that links Memphis to West Memphis, Arkansas, was probably a well-planned murder, according to local law enforcement officials in Tennessee and Arkansas.

After Wiley's friends and family discounted claims of suicide, the Memphis coroner concluded on January 14, 2002 that Wiley had "accidentally" fallen over the side of the bridge after a minor car accident.

Not so, say seasoned local law enforcement officials who originally assigned homicide detectives to the case. Memphis police claim there was only 15 minutes between the last time police had checked the bridge and the time they discovered Wiley's abandoned vehicle. They suspected Wiley was murdered. However, the local FBI office in Memphis stuck by its story that Wiley's death was not the result of "foul play." A Memphis police detective said, "the newspaper account of Wiley's accident did not clear anything up for me," adding, "everything attributed to the 'accident' could also be attributed to something else."

However, according to U.S. intelligence sources, Wiley may have been the victim of an intelligence agency hit. That jibes with local police comments that the FBI and "other" U.S. agencies stepped in to prevent the local Memphis police from taking a closer look into the case. Employees of St. Jude's Childrens' Hospital in Memphis, on whose board Wiley served, were suddenly deluged with unsubstantiated rumors that Wiley was a heavy drinker and despondent.

It is a classic intelligence agency ploy to spread disinformation about "suicide" victims after their murders. The favorite rumors spread include those about purported alcoholism, depression, homosexuality, auto-erotic asphyxia, drug addiction, and an obsession with pornography, especially child pornography.

According to the local police, it would have been easy to determine if Wiley was a heavy drinker and that would have shown up in his autopsy. The police also reckon that if Wiley left the Peabody under the influence, four hours later he should have been sober enough not to have fallen over the side of the bridge. Also, the bridge railing is high enough that event the 6' 3" Wiley could not have accidentally fallen over it without assistance. Add that to the fact that no one in the history of the bridge had fallen over the side.

Police also feel that even at 4:00 AM, there should have been someone else on the bridge who would have called the police about a person who was driving down the interstate the wrong way. Due to the fact that access is restricted to the bridge, one would have to have driven a long way on the wrong lane. Some police are of the opinion Wiley was stuck with a needle and that one reason he was dumped into the fast-moving Mississippi is that with the length of his time in the water (one month), the needle mark evidence would have largely disappeared.

And in yet another strange twist, on March 14, a bomb and two smaller explosive devices were found at the Shelby County Regional Forensic Center, which houses the morgue and Medical Examiner's Office that conducted Wiley's autopsy. Dr. O.C, Smith, the medical examiner, told Memphis' Commercial Appeal, "We have done several high-profile cases from Dr. Wiley to Katherine Smith (a Department of Motor Vehicles employee mysteriously found burned to death in her car after being charged in a federal probe with conspiracy to obtain fraudulent drivers' licenses for men of Middle East origin) but there has been no indication that we offended anyone . . . we just don't know if we were the attended target or not."

Knowledgeable U.S. and foreign intelligence sources have revealed that Wiley may have been silenced as a result of his discovery of U.S. government work on biological warfare agents long after the U.S., along with the Soviet Union and Britain, signed the 1972 Biological Weapons Convention.

A South African Connection

The death of Wiley may be also linked to revelations recently uncovered in South Africa. His expertise on genetic fingerprints for various strains may have led him to particular countries and their bio-warfare projects.

The South African media has been abuzz with details of that nation's former biological warfare program and its links to the CIA. The South African bio-chemical war program was code-named Project Coast and was centered at the Roodeplat Research Laboratories north of Pretoria. The lab maintained links to the US biowarfare facility at Fort Detrick and Britain's Porton Down Laboratory. The head of the South African program, Dr. Wouter Basson, was reportedly offered a job with the CIA in the United States after the fall of the apartheid regime. According to former South African National Intelligence Agency deputy director Michael Kennedy, when Basson refused the offer, the CIA allegedly threatened to kill him. Nevertheless, the U.S. pressured the new President Nelson Mandela to turn over the records and fruits of Basson's work. Much of this work was reportedly transported to Fort Detrick.

One of the South African's secret projects involved sending anthrax through the mail. Among the techniques that fell into the hands of the Americans was a method by which anthrax spores were, with deadly effect, incorporated on to the gummed flaps of envelopes.

Other South African bio-chemical weapons allegedly transferred to the CIA included, in addition to anthrax, cholera, smallpox, salmonella, botulinum, tularemia, thallium, E.coli, racin, organophosphates, necrotising fasciitis, hepatitis A, HIV, paratyphoid, Sarin VX nerve gas, Ebola, Marburg, Rift Valley hemorrhagic fever viruses, Dengue fever, West Nile virus, highly potent CR tear gas, hallucinogens Ecstasy, Mandrax, BZ, and cocaine, anti-coagulant drugs, the deadly lethal injection drugs Scoline and Tubarine, and cyanide.

Many of Dr. Wiley's family and friends doubt he would have committed suicide. The fact that he was certainly in a position to know about the origination of various viruses and bacteria -- which could have led to the U.S. government -- would have made him a prime target for a government seeking to cover up its illegal work in biological warfare.

Wiley's Anthrax Research

And Wiley had a significant connection to anthrax research. Wiley was not only a professor at Harvard but also conducted research at the Chevy Chase, Maryland Howard Hughes Medical Center, which does work for the National Institutes of Health. On October 1, 2001, just three days before the first reported anthrax case in Florida, the Hughes Center announced that a joint Harvard-Hughes team had identified a mouse gene that made mice resistant to anthrax bacteria. Although the media failed to play it up later, that research involved using Wiley's expertise on the immune system. The new gene, identified as Kif1C, located in chromosome 11 of a mouse, enhanced the defense systems of special immune cells, called macrophages, against the destructive effects of anthrax bacteria.

Wiley's was not the only suspicious death of a scientist with knowledge of biological defenses. Just three day before Wiley's death, Dr. Benito Que, a Miami Medical School cellular biologist specializing in infectious diseases, died in a violent attack. The Miami Herald reported Que died after "four men armed with a baseball bat attacked him at his car." A week after Wiley died, Dr. Vladimir Pasechnik, a former scientist for Biopreparat, the Soviet Union's biological weapons production factory, was found dead from an alleged stroke in Wiltshire, not far from Britain's Porton Down biological warfare center. Pasechnik had defected from the Soviet Union in 1989 and was an expert on the Soviet Union's anthrax, smallpox, plague, and tularemia programs. While at Biopreparat, Pasechnik worked for Alibek, who defected three years later. When he died, Pasechnik was assisting the British government's efforts in providing bio-defenses against anthrax.

Anthrax and Operation Northwoods

For those who disbelieve the possibility that the U.S. Government is the number one suspect in the anthrax attacks, they are directed to James Bamford's book on the National Security Agency, Body of Secrets. The book reveals that in 1962,Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Lyman Lemnitzer was planning, along with other member of the Joint Chiefs, a virtual coup d'etat against the administration of President Kennedy using acts of terrorism carried out by the military but to be blamed on the Castro government in Cuba. The secret pan, code-named Operation Northwoods, entailed having U.S. military personnel shoot innocent people on the streets of American cities, sink boats carrying Cuban refugees to Florida, and conduct terrorist bombings in Washington, DC, Miami and other cities. Innocent people were to be framed for committing bombings and hijacking planes. If John Glenn's liftoff from Cape Canaveral in February 1962 were to end in an explosion, Castro would be blamed. Plans were made to shoot down civilian aircraft en route from the United States to Jamaica, Guatemala, Panama, or Venezuela and then blame Cuba. The U.S. military also planned to attack Jamaica and Trinidad and Tobago, both British colonies, and make it appear that the Cubans had done it in order to bring Britain into a war with Cuba.

So far, the Bush administration has refused to support a full and independent Congressional investigation into the events of September 11 and the later events involving anthrax. It seems it and the three-letter agencies the administration is so fond of praising, and funding, know more about the source of the anthrax attacks than they are admitting. If the saying, "where there's smoke, there's fire," has any basis of truth, the United States is in the midst of a raging inferno. Who will answer the fire alarm?
