Biological alarm in Washington is no top news?
"You've just got to trust us. We are honorable men." -- Richard Helms, former CIA Director
Washington sensors detect pathogens (and possible germ warfare). Astonishing material - apparently true - why isn't it top news in all the papers?!
DID TERRORISTS ATTACK WASHINGTON WITH A DEADLY PATHOGEN? -
FPF: AND IF SO: WHO ARE THE TERRORISTS?
Biological alarm in Washington
SALON - Oct. 18, 2005 | WASHINGTON - On Sept. 24, 2005, tens of thousands of protesters marched past the White House and flooded the National Mall near 17th Street and Constitution Avenue. They had arrived from all over the country for a day of speeches and concerts to protest the war in Iraq. It may have been the biggest antiwar rally since Vietnam. A light rain fell early in the day and most of the afternoon was cool and overcast.
Unknown to the crowd, biological-weapons sensors, scattered for miles across Washington by the Department of Homeland Security, were quietly doing their work. The machines are designed to detect killer pathogens. Sometime between 10 a.m. on Sept. 24 and 10 a.m. on Sept. 25, six of those machines sucked in trace amounts of deadly bacteria called Francisella tularensis. The government fears it is one of six biological weapons most likely to be used against the United States.
It was an alarming reading. The biological-weapons detection system in Washington had never set off any alarms before. There are more than 150 sensors spread across 30 of the most populated cities in America.
DETECTED A TOXIN
BUT THIS WAS THE FIRST TIME THAT SIX SENSORS IN ANY ONE PLACE HAD DETECTED A TOXIN AT THE SAME TIME.
The sensors are also located miles from one another, suggesting that the pathogen was airborne and probably not limited to a local environmental source.
William Stanhope, associate director for special projects at the St. Louis University School of Public Health's Institute for Biosecurity, has been closely following scattered government and news reports about the incident. He's convinced it was a botched terrorist attack.
"I think we were lucky and the terrorists were not good," he says. "I am stunned that this has not been more of a story."
The DHS scrambled for three days to confirm just what may have been in the air that day. On Sept. 27, it turned for help to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The CDC did its own tests, and on Sept. 30 -- six days after the deadly pathogens set off the sensors and well into the incubation period for Tularemia -- alerted public health officials across the country to be on the lookout for Tularemia, the deadly disease caused by F. tularensis.
OCT. 3 LETTER TO HOMELAND SECURITY SECRETARY MICHAEL CHERTOFF
"It is alarming that health officials ... were only notified six days after the bacteria was first detected," House Government Reform chairman Tom Davis, R-Va., wrote in an Oct. 3 letter to Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff. "Have DHS and CDC analysts been able to determine if the pathogen detected was naturally occurring or the result of a terrorist attack?"
[end quote / pls see the rest of the story and other related links below]
Currently, the investigation into what happened on Sept. 24 is ongoing. Government officials have apparently been taking soil samples around the Mall, attempting to pinpoint a natural source for F. tularensis. In the meantime, on Oct. 5, the National Institutes of Health announced it would award two contracts worth a total of $60 million to develop new Tularemia vaccine candidates. The announcement said nothing of the events 11 days earlier.
NOTE THAT ALL THE VICTIMS OF GERM WARFARE SO FAR HAVE BEEN BUSH ADMINISTRATION ENEMIES.
