>>Does it not make it all the more poignant that they
abandoned pursuing al Qaeda?
Indeed.
The FBI are meta-cops and may suffer from the same target
fascination that cops do. They had a profile of their perp,
probably constructed in the pre-9/11 days for such attacks,
and they were going to work that profile. And they worked
and worked that profile and disregarded avenues outside the
profile. By the time they announced that they were going to
"widen their investigation," the relevant parties may have
fled or gone silent.
Another option is that they know exactly who did it, but
can't prove it, and are waiting for the anthrax mailer(s) to
slip up.
Maybe we'll find out in our lifetime.
