* Was this the murder weapon? Whose handwriting was this? Bruce Ivins said the handwriting on this Ames sent in 1998 was not his.

* The February 15, 2002 Subpoena Produced Today Directed To Ivins EXPRESSLY Allowed Him To Use An Equivalent Slant ; others using an equivalent slant were not thrown out by the FBI’s scientist who had made the dried powder — only Ivins’ submission (which had the four morphs)

* In the 5 February 2002 Response to subpoena produced today, USRMIID notes dry simulants of anthrax were produced and stored in room 212 of building 1412 (which was where FBI’s scientist was located and not building 1425 where Ivins was located)

* USAMRIID today produced a copy of it’s response to a 17 January 2002 subpoena and admitted to the one project where a dried powder was made (by the FBI’s expert at USAMRIID who was collecting the samples from others)

* Stephen Embry’s 5***** review of CASE CLOSED

Well worth reading and thinking about. 

Conspiracy novels usually have suspense, plausibility and complexity. Initial unsuspected contacts are gradually revealed to be causes, and the truth is revealed. Case Closed has two of the three, plausibility and complexity, but not much suspense. However, this is intentional, since it is not really a conspiracy novel, but rather part of the indictment genre.

Indictment novels often begin with a hypothesis and develop it by logic and reason. These tools are used remarkably effectively by Mr. Weinstein to lay out the case that high placed government officials used the events of September 11, 2001 [and after that] for their own personal purposes and sacrificed the innocents to to cover up crimes that floated close to their homes.

The author jettisons suspense in the forward where the conclusion is largely revealed, and then employs plausibility and complexity to paint a fictional but credible account that is chilling.

* The genetically matching sample from CDC7738 was obtained from Building 1412, and not Building 1425 ; a key false premise of the FBI’s “Ivins Theory” Announced in early August 2008 was that only 100 at USAMRIID needed to be eliminated rather than up to 300 (and that was just considering those with access at USAMRIID)
