5.0 out of 5 stars Biowarfare crimes, March 5, 2008

By	William De Worde (London) - See all my reviews

Prof. Francis A. Boyle sets out the facts in no uncertain terms. The ames strain of anthrax which was used on the biological attacks on the US Congress originated from the US military Fort Detrick laboratory. The anthrax attacks can't even be labelled a false flag attack because they were so blatantly an inside job.
This book will leave you with more questions than answers and an uneasy feeling int he pit of your stomach.

5.0 out of 5 stars Clear Presentation of the Present Danger, January 28, 2007

By	James A. Mulick (COLUMBUS, OH United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The Bush administration has broken international and domestic laws related to the development of chemical and biological warfare. The facts are presented succinctly in this book by one of the authors of the very international agreements that are being violated. The book also sheds light on the anthrax attacks against two of the leading Senators who might have impeded passage of the Patriot Act in the confusing aftermath of the 911 attacks.
