Anthrax Mail Mystery Won’t Be Solved:

F.B.I.’s Hands Tied From Above

Sandpoint, ID — In an effort to help solve the anthrax mail

mystery one behavioral science and public health expert has

advanced a viable, yet unspeakable, “industrial espionageâ€

theory. Despite forwarding evidence to more than 1,500 F.B.I.

personnel and every member of Congress in recent weeks, the

resulting avoidance of his controversial theory has angered

political observers, grassroots activists, and news

investigators alike. It is becoming increasingly clear that

F.B.I. officials may be politically incapable of solving the

case given the “back off†orders they received from the Bush

administration.

The Harvard-trained investigator, Dr. Leonard

Horowitz, has used the F.B.I.’s own methods and materials in

the past for tracking serial killers. He has published

numerous books and scientific articles specifically in the

field of criminal investigations concerning cases in which

people have spread HIV—the AIDS virus—as biological weapons to

frighten and kill victims. Since October 1, two weeks before

the first anthrax mailing, he has called on the nation’s chief

law enforcement bureau to simply do its job. Officials have yet

to respond, pursue his leads, or solve the mystery.(1, 2)

“A serial killer’s motivation is always paramount in

every search and profiling of suspects,†Dr. Horowitz explains.

Suddenly, F.B.I. officials seem uninterested in this

criminology fundamental. “Even on television, homicide

investigators begin by asking who profits most by murder.

Closest kin and wealth recipients are typically scrutinized. So

why haven’t official investigators, or the mainstream media,

held anthrax and smallpox profiteers up to this customary

scrutiny? Some chief suspects are even operating near Trenton,

NJ where the anthrax letters originated.â€

Dr. Horowitz begs the question, “Why, with more than

two dozen biologicals to choose from in state-run weapons

laboratories, has America’s incessant focus been limited to

anthrax and smallpox threats? Could the drug-makers who produce

the only state-sanctioned remedies for these agents be

economically and politically related to policy-makers?â€

Apparently they are, according to mounting evidence.

Dr. Horowitz explains that standard F.B.I. serial

killer investigations, like that of “Unibomber†Ted Kaczynski,

who sent explosives through the mail, are supported by

analyzing the “developmental histories†of suspects. He

asks, “Might the histories of implicated drug companies,

including those that are demanding court warrants for F.B.I.

access to their labs, reflect those historically linked to

murder, or even mass genocide?â€

Developmental History

In fact, the only FDA endorsed anthrax antibiotic,

Cipro, and government purchased smallpox vaccine, are products

of companies that evolved directly from Germany’s infamous WWII

military-industrial cartel—I.G. Farben. Cipro is produced by

Bayer AG, while the smallpox vaccine’s newly formed producers

are Acambis (previously OraVax), partnered with Baxter and

Aventis—created in 1999 by parent companies Hoechst and Rhone-

Poulenc. All have severely jaded histories.

Bayer and Hoechst were two of “The Big Threeâ€

companies formed following the “decartelization†of I.G.

Farben. The CIA immediately took over their corporate

headquarters in furt, which had curiously escaped allied

bombings. Historians explain that the Farben complex had been

protected by military officials obligated to D.

Rockefeller’s Standard Oil Company—half owner of the Farben

cartel.(3)

Soon after the CIA began operations in the Farben

building, Bayer and Hoechst were reorganized in 1951 under the

direction of the Allied High Commission, largely influenced by

U.S. High Commissioner J. McCloy—a lawyer and banker from

Philadelphia, with intimate ties to Rockefeller banking and oil

interests. After “decartelization,†the I.G. Farben labor camps

were consolidated into “The Big Three†holding companies—Bayer,

Hoechst, and BASF—for the benefit of the stockholders.

Hermann Schmitz, president of Bayer A.G and I.G.

Farben during WWII, who also largely directed the Deutsche

Bank, “held as much stock in Standard Oil of New Jersey as did

the Rockefellers,†according to former CBS News war

correspondent Manning who thanked CIA director Dulles for

his historic accounts. On August 10, 1944, the Rockefeller-

Farben partners moved their “flight capital†through affiliated

German/French, American, British and Swiss banks “for the new

Germany,†according to Manning. This secured “the sophisticated

distribution of national and corporate assets to safe havensâ€

thoughout the world, and assured the continuation and further

development of the “Neuordnung†(new order) for both global

petrochemical-pharmaceutical and banking cartels.(2)

Historic records showed in the legal battle of

Standard Oil (NJ) et. al v. , in 1947, that U.S. Circuit

Court Judge found this “unholy alliance†between

America’s wealthiest company and the Farben cartel was nothing

short of “an enemy national.†The judge wrote that the

Rockefeller plaintiffs “became enemy nationals [i.e., traitors]

after the outbreak of the war, since their concealment of I.G.

assets continued thereafter.†Such underhanded manipulations

for war profits prompted President Dwight D. Eisenhower, in his

Farewell Address to the Nation in 1961, to urge diligence

regarding the “military-industrial complex†and “the potential

for the disastrous rise of misplaced power.â€(3)

More Modern Machinations

In 1998, a lucrative defense department contract was

granted to a new company, Bioport Corporation, for the

production of a largely untested anthrax vaccine. The firm was

formed principally by Saudi financier Fuad El-Hibri, reportedly

connected to Bin Laden family businesses and investments.

Bioport’s predecessor, the failing Michigan Biologic Products

Institute (affiliated with Michigan State University) failed to

secure FDA approval on their anthrax vaccine for several

reasons, including excessive contaminations and poor record

keeping. Others joining El-Hibri on the Board of Directors of

Bioport included Reagan staffer and Clinton advisor Admiral

J. Crowe, Jr., former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of

Staff, and Senior Advisor for Global Options—an industrial

think tank whose members included former Director of Central

Intelligence, R. Woolsey. In recent years Mr. Woolsey has

been a leading financial consultant who lectures extensively

on “industrial espionage.â€(4)

L. Rosenberg of ABC NEWS reported in March,

1999, that Bioport’s exclusive $29 million contract with the

U.S. Department of Defense to manufacture, test, bottle and

store the anthrax vaccine was overtly specious. “According to

former Central Intelligence Agency military analyst

Eddington, the estimated $60 million worth of anthrax vaccine

Bioport is expected to produce for the Defense Department over

the next five years could just be the beginning. The Pentagon

has a $322 million, 10-year program to develop at least three,

and perhaps as many as a dozen additional biological warfare

vaccines. . . . These have never really been tested, and most

importantly, no one has provided data to validate the

threat. " (5)

Another major stockholder of Bioport, Corp, according

to Chicago judicial system investigator Sherman Skolnick and

others (6,7), is The Carlyle Group—a $12 billion private

investment firm and the 11th leading defense contractor. This

group’s Chief Executive Officer, C. Carlucci, III, was a

key CIA operations director in Sub-Saharan Africa at the time

AIDS broke out, and was National Security Advisor during the

Iran-contra scandal. Other Carlyle Group officials include

former cabinet members of the H.W. Bush administration

such as Secretary of State A. Baker, III, and members of

the Bin Laden family.

Mr. Baker and the senior Bush are likewise linked to

another experimental vaccine producer—Tanox Biomedical Systems

of Houston, Texas. This Baylor College of Medicine affiliated

lab is currently a defendant in a class action lawsuit filed on

behalf of Huntsville, TX prisoners and civilians who received

Mycoplasma contaminated vaccines and resulting infections.

Their diseases are astonishingly similar to those seen in the

Gulf War Syndrome, even though their vaccine experiments began

years before Operation Desert Storm.(8)

Updating the international intrigue visiting these military

vaccine producers, according to the Wall Street Journal, (Sept.

28, 2001), " The father of President Bush, works for the bin

Laden family business in Saudi Arabia through the Carlyle

Group . . . "

Exposing the Bioterror Cartel

There is a the strong probability that today’s widely heralded

biological threats such as smallpox, though potentially real,

may be orchestrated by multinational corporations and best

reflect industrial espionage activities. The media targeted

anthrax mailings that have effectively “wagged the dog†for

drug-maker profit is a classic example of this new form of

bioterrorism and military-medical profiteering.

Retired L.A. Police Department investigator-turned-journalist

Ruppert agrees. He has published numerous articles

implicating Bush administration and CIA officials in profit-

making from various forms of terrorism following September 11.

Reinforcing the Carlyle Group connection, Mr. Ruppert wrote

that “The senior Bush had met with the Bin Laden family at

least twice in the last three years—1998 and 2000—as a

representative of Carlyle, seeking to expand business dealings

with one of the wealthiest Saudi families, which some experts

argue, has never fully severed its ties with black sheep

Osama.â€(7)

The political strength and identity of these unsavory parties

connected to Bush and Bioport, and possibly other recently

formed vaccine and drug companies conveniently positioned and

illegally contracted to take advantage of anthrax and

smallpox “bioterrorism,†bodes badly for the FBI. The bureau’s

apparent unwillingness to follow Dr. Horowitz’s anthrax mailing

leads is best reconciled by the following facts. According to a

recent BBC report instigated by investigative reporter Greg

Palast for Britain’s premier Sunday Newspaper, The

Observer, “FBI and [u.S.] military intelligence officials in

Washington say they were prevented for political reasons from

carrying out full investigations into members of the Bin Laden

family in the US before the terrorist attacks of September

11. . . . [T]he FBI files were closed in 1996 apparently before

any conclusions could be reached on either of the Bin Laden

brothers . . . They said the restrictions became worse after

the Bush administration took over this year. The intelligence

agencies had been told to ‘back off’ from investigations

involving other members of the Bin Laden family, the Saudi

royals, and possible Saudi links to the acquisition of nuclear

weapons by Pakistan. ‘There were particular investigations that

were effectively killed,’†F.B.I. and intelligence officers in

Washington told the BBC.(9)

Conflicts of Interest, Illegalities, and Lies

Recently, according to Dr. Sidney M. Wolfe, health

director at Ralph Nader’s Public Citizen Health Research Group,

illegal meetings have been conducted between Bush

administration officials, including Secretary of the Department

of Health and Human Services (HHS), Tommy , and

principals of the Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of

America (PhRMA). Their covertly managed Emergency Preparedness

Task Force, in violation of federal transparency laws for such

decision-making bodies, is touting orders for enough drugs and

vaccines to protect every American against the threats of

anthrax and smallpox. The PhRMA task force is directed by

Aventis executive and anthrax mailing conspiracy suspect

Markham.(10)

Apparent illegalities did not deter Secretary

from ordering more than $100 million worth of Bayer’s Cipro, at

the “bargain price†of $.90 per tablet when other companies

offered equally effective and lower risk substitutes for a few

pennies each, and then for free. On October 25, 2001, Mr.

also asked Congress for another $500 million to

produce enough of the Acambis/Aventis smallpox vaccine “so

every American will be assured there is a dose with his or her

name on it if it is needed.†This, despite CDC official

admissions that people already vaccinated probably shouldn’t

take it, and the smallpox vaccine will require extensive

testing.(11,12)

Meanwhile, much like Bioport, Acambis’s suspicious

evolution in recent months from the failing OraVax corporation

has many observers wondering.(13) OraVax had been likewise

linked to shady backroom dealings with Clinton administration

officials in 1998 regarding government orders for the (yet to

be tested) West Nile Virus vaccine. His prophetically titled

book released in June, Dr. Horowitz’s Death in the Air:

Globalism, Terrorism and Toxic Warfare (Tetrahedron Publishing

Group; 1-888-508-4787) recorded a stealth meeting between Dr.

Monath, the Vice President of OraVax (now Acambis),

President Clinton, Janet Reno, CIA Director Deutsch, and

American Type Culture Collection (ATCC) curator Dr.

Lederberg, a former Rockefeller University President and

Council on Foreign Relations bioterrorism study group leader.

(14)

“What concerns me is not that a business deal was

struck, albeit illegally,†Dr. Horowitz said, “but that Dr.

Lederberg had falsely assured the American military and public

that no biological weapons were used during the Gulf War

despite his knowledge that the ATCC, under his watch, sent

nineteen shipments of various strains of anthrax suitable for

weapons production to Sadam Hussein in the years leading up to

Desert Storm, and that tens of thousands of vets may have

suffered and died from Gulf War syndrome as a result. These

people, largely directing the public health response to

bioterrorism, are completely untrustworthy.â€

Dr. Horowitz’s allegations are documented in the U.S.

Congressional Record from Don Reigle’s committee hearings

concerning Gulf War syndrome. The Reigle report exposed ATCC as

the chief supplier of biological weapons strains to virtually

anyone with a lab, including pharmaceutical companies.(15)

Since the mailed anthrax strain is certified American, it

likely originated from ATCC.

So when the New York Times (November 9, 2001) reported

ATCC vice president Wysocki saying, “We have a very close

working relationship with many of the federal agencies,

including the FBI,†the “conspiracy of silence†Dr. Horowitz

was witnessing made even more sense.

“It’s not particularly reassuring that the F.B.I. and

the ATCC have a “close working relationship,†Dr. Horowitz

said. “Nor am I pleased to learn that the new delinquent

biotech firms are financed by Bush and Bin Laden family members

and associates. This does explain, however, why even after hand

delivering urgent requests for bureau officials to investigate

these white-collar criminals for possible industrial espionage

in the anthrax mailings, they never had the courtesy to

respond.â€

“Federal Bungling Incompetents†or Pawns in a Global Game

In fact, Dr. Horowitz initially hand-delivered a memo

to his regional F.B.I. office on October 1, 2001, almost two

weeks before the first anthrax letter was sent from Trenton,

New Jersey to the American Media building in Boca Raton,

Florida. His action was prompted after reading the Oklahoma

City bombing grand jury investigation, The Final Report,

commissioned by then State Representative Key. It

stated that German-based neo-Nazi’s were known to

have “masterminded†both airline hijackings and U.S. military

installation bombings by the PLO. This matched what the F.B.I.

had reported, and reinforced the German connection to what was

obviously a Cipro and smallpox vaccine sales “scam.†The former

was likewise reported by the Washington Times.(4)

The F.B.I. reported that the silica-mixed anthrax

powder required expensive equipment, as well as a bioweapons

savvy microbiologist, to produce. They had ruled out Islamic

terrorist groups, but not “state-sponsored†crimes. This

likewise suggested to Dr. Horowitz a “white collar†gang was

behind the mailings.(16)

The New York Times (November 11, 2001) also reported

that F.B.I. agents were denied access to “some pharmaceutical

companies in New Jersey.†These companies demanded

agents “present a subpoena before they would grant access to

their files.â€(14) Dr. Horowitz found this additionally

suspicious, if not seriously incriminating, especially since

Aventis, one of his primary suspects, had two plants within

forty-five minutes drive from Trenton.

“I should think that any company with nothing to hide

would welcome the bureau’s inquiry,†Dr. Horowitz

said, “especially at this time of national emergency.†To him

the drug firms’ response seemed like “Gestapo tactics rather

than amiable support.â€

“I’ve asked the F.B.I. to thoroughly investigate the

possibility of industrial espionage being perpetrated by Bayer

corporate officials as well as possibly Dr. Monath, the

Vice President of OraVax/Acambis, and affiliated officials at

Aventis. I’ve also urged an inquiry into ATCC curator Dr.

Lederberg, and the financial interests he represents,

including Rockefeller pharmaceutical and banking interests,â€

Dr. Horowitz said.

The trouble is, in the real world of power politics,

economic espionage, and bioterrorism, this level of

investigation and mainstream exposure is close to impossible.

In recent days bureau officials said they are closing

in on a suspect for a breakthrough in the case. Dr. Horowitz

concluded that, “It wouldn’t surprise me, given the high stakes

and to save face, our intelligence community would manufacture

another Lee Harvey Oswald. In this new world, our great

American law enforcement agency, under restraints posed by the

Bush administration and the CIA, has been reduced to a group of

Federal Bungling Incompetents.â€
