Alanna Shaikh writes for UN Dispatch (7/26/11) …
From an interview with Laurie Garrett, author of “I Heard the Sirens Scream”
Ms. Garrett:
- The final third of the book is analysis of what happened.
- Why I think that Al-Qaeda was behind the anthrax attacks,
- why the FBI blew the investigation,
- and why to this day it has not been recognized as a public health disaster.
- Who lied and said that the anthrax was weaponized, and how that led to invading Iraq.

SIR DAVID MANNING
I think it was Sir Christopher Meyer who also
21 raised — and I think quite rightly — the issue of the
22 anthrax scare. I know from conversations that I had
23 with Dr Rice after 9/11 that they were not only worried
24 about a repeat of an atrocity like 9/11, and they were
25 constantly on the alert for this, but they were puzzled
and deeply disturbed by the appearance of the anthrax
2 that seemed to have been targeted against key members of
3 the administration.
4 I think there was therefore a sense of real and
5 p
resent danger, as the Americans would see it, and that
6 this was acute, not only as a result of 9/11 itself, but
7 of a feeling that other threats were out there and that
8 they had to be not only cont
ained, but confronted and
9 dealt with.
