"In regard to the following article, I would not put it past the FBI to have actually been behind the mailings of these anthrax letters as part of the terror campaign which the Bush Administration and its criminal minions have been waging against the American people since 9-11. A bogus war on terror which led to the Patriot Act and the most intense assault on American freedoms in the history of this country.
I also found the following quote to be of interest:
"The article Filthy Lucre also revealed that a study conducted at the Houston Advanced Research Center in Texas found that 70-80% of all currency had trace amounts of cocaine hydrochloride on them. In older bills that had been in circulation for some time, 90% manifested trace amounts of cocaine. [9]"
The Journal of Forensic Sciences conducted a study in May 1998 that concluded that more than 93% of all bills tested had trace amounts of cocaine hydrochloride present."
The fact that so much of US currency has been found to contain traces of cocaine hydrochloride, bolsters further claims by alternative journalist Mike Ruppert, that drug money has been supporting the US economy since the early 1970's, when oil rose dramatically in price, and was no longer viable for driving the US economy.
The following is also a direct quote from the article regarding the FBI's framing of Dr. Steven Hatfield as the anthrax mailer, while using the US Media to smear his reputation -- something the FBI has also done to me.
"If the FBI were truly interested in finding and apprehending the “Anthrax Killer,” they’d be investigating Philip Zack, who once worked at Fort Detrick Maryland and was caught red handed diverting anthrax spores several years prior to 9-11 and later writing an anonymous letter attempting to implicate or frame a scientist by the name of Dr. Ayaad Assaad. [5]
Instead the FBI focused its investigation on one Steven J. Hatfill and employed the media to conduct an orchestrated smear campaign on Hatfill’s character in order to convict him in the court of public opinion. [6] When their smear campaign fell apart for lack of evidence, the FBI then dropped its investigation and the media has subsequently remained silent, with nary a word about anyone else possibly being connected to the case, despite the overwhelming evidence implicating Philip Zack.
What does all this mean? What it means to this writer is that the FBI’s claim of ignorance was a complete lie and that their focus on the innocent Steven J. Hatfill suggests a willful attempt to ignore the far more compromised Philip Zack, who should be under investigation at this very moment for several murders and engaging in terrorism against his own nation, thus committing treason during a time of war."
Mr. Maynard's comments are typical of how the FBI routinely misdirects legitimate investigations in efforts to obfuscate the facts, while using some innocent scape goat to take the blame for someone else's crimes, as it did in the case of Steven Hatfield. They also did the same with Richard Jewel, whom they attempted to frame for the Olympic Park bombing several years ago.
Except that Jewel knew enough about the FBI's history of setting up people whom they knew to be innocent, to protect himself -- in spite of the FBI's use of the US Media to wage a smear campaign against him. The FBI is as dirty an organization as has ever existed in this country, with no accountability for its actions and a ridiculous amount of authority, which should never have been given to such an abjectly criminal organization.
And as I've said in the past, the FBI's strong suit is satellite peeping on the American public within the privacy of their own homes -- something which these Constitution and mind raping criminals have long excelled at, since it allows them to feed their perverted voyeuristic tendencies while earning them a paycheck.
Agencies like the NSA, CIA and FIB (oops Freudian slip) FBI are an illustration of how the US Federal Government was coopted by a very powerful criminal influence long ago. One which allowed for the creation of such treasonous organizations -- those which exist to destroy the freedoms which the United States was once known globally and admired for.
Today these agencies represent the consummate threat to these freedoms, while using advanced spy technologies which have virtually destroyed our sense of privacy and the American way of life, while violating virtually every aspect of the Constitutional rule of law. These agencies have never belonged in a country which was created as a free society. They have proven this time and time again through their treasonous violations of American civil liberties.
And this country and its people will never again be truly free until we've untangled ourselves from the covert and captive web that the aforementioned agencies have subjected us to under the criminal cabal which controls them. The only way in which to do so, is to completely restructure the Intelligence community so that it operates within the Constitutional rule of law and with far greater efficiency than it does at present.
The best way in which to begin such an ambitious undertaking is to abolish the FBI, NSA and CIA, which have always operated in a criminal capacity, while hiding their treasonous and malicious crimes against American citizens under the cover of national security.
As an American citizen who has experienced what are perhaps the most outrageous and precedent setting violations of the US Constitution as it applies to the 4TH Amendment, by an abjectly dangerous criminal element within the US Intelligence community, I cannot think of a better way in which to steer this country in a more productive direction -- one which will ultimately be of benefit to all Americans.
For if we continue to allow Americanized Gestapo agencies like the FBI, NSA and CIA to operate, we eventually risk losing even the few freedoms that we have left; freedoms which are quite literally disappearing right before our eyes. The only legitimate solution is to dramatically pare down the Intelligence community, beginning with the abolition of the FBI, NSA and CIA.
Something which would be a breath of fresh air to all Americans, given that these agencies are no longer (if they ever were) accountable to the American people. They have become so abusive that even the US Congress is incapable of controlling them. Which leaves us with three rogue agencies responsible for siphoning off billions of dollars annually; and no responsibility for their actions.
And I am certain that there are a great many Americans who would agree with this. Especially those who have experienced the brutality of these agencies first hand, while their civil rights have been decimated, by criminal thugs who continue to pass themselves off as a legitimate part of the United States of America -- something they clearly are not. It's time that we as Americans put an end to these satellite predators and their long standing history of anti-American criminal operations.
They are spying on us within the privacy of our own homes while using super computers to rape and manipulate our minds. How much more of this abuse are we going to take as Americans before we declare these criminal organizations unconstitutional and dissolve them?
Caught! The FBI Lies Again
Remember when the FBI informed us that the notorious anthrax letters sent through the mail came as a complete surprise, especially the fact that the contaminated letters cross-contaminated others? Well by now, it shouldn’t come as a surprise that the FBI lied to us yet again. --Curt Maynard

According to an October 1998 Discover magazine article entitled “Filthy Lucre,” the FBI was fully aware of the fact that counting/sorting machines were capable of cross-contaminating items made of paper. [1] The entire article was devoted to the scientific study of money including a historical, and anthropological view. Of course the article focused on the cross-contamination of currency at the federal reserve’s counting/sorting machines, but even a fool should be able to understand that there can’t be a tremendous difference between those machines and the ones at the post office that do pretty much the same thing.
Apparently the Japanese are light years ahead of our FBI, according to this article anyway, they have been well aware of the fact that currency is an effective vector for bacteria, as evidenced by the fact that Japanese citizens can go to what is referred to in Japan as a “clean ATM”, and have their currency, the Yen, pressed for 1/10th of a second at 392 degrees in order to sterilize them. [2] Hitachi manufactures this clean ATM, and according to the article, it is quite popular and has been for many years in Japan.
In 1997, [Four years before 9-11] Tom Jourdan, chief of the Materials and Devices unit at the FBI lab in Washington D.C. found that ninety percent of the dollar bills his unit tested came back positive for the presence of cocaine hydrochloride. Jourdan stated that it was his belief that, “mechanical currency counters are homogenizing money… one contaminated bill brushed through the counting machine at the bank can contaminate the entire stack.” [3] In other words the FBI conducted a study that revealed that mechanical counters were cross-contaminating money, and they knew back in 1997 that one contaminated dollar bill could contaminate an entire stack of bills. How hard is it to infer that the same would prove true with envelopes at the United States Post Office? The answer of course is that it wouldn’t be difficult at all – the same mechanics are at work with the mechanical counters/sorters and the vector, paper, is essentially the same. Admittedly currency is a better vector with its cotton/linen composition, but at the microscopic level, standard envelope paper is very porous and can carry anthrax spores quite efficiently as evidenced by the fact that several Americans died as a result of inhaling spores that had become impregnated into envelopes at the Post Office. [4]
The FBI will never critique this article, but if they were to try, they’d probably lie and suggest that cocaine hydrochloride particulate is smaller than anthrax spores and for this reason they didn’t think that anthrax would so efficiently cross-contaminate envelopes at the Post Office. The fact is, weaponized anthrax spores, like those mailed to Senator Tom Daschle are generally between 1/25,000th and 10/25,000th of an inch in diameter. Photographic microscopy in the article, “Filthy Lucre,” clearly revealed that the cocaine particulate photographed within the weave of the cotton/linen dollar was some seven times larger than 10/25,000th of an inch in diameter, yet couldn’t be seen without the use of a microscope. The fact is; the FBI knew in 1997 that anthrax and other bacterial agents could not only contaminate money and remain viable on its surface for some time, but that it could also “cross-contaminate” other bills. There is no doubt whatsoever that they knew the same would prove true at the Post Office, but like everything else around us today, the FBI lied about it and attempted to fool the American public.
If the FBI were truly interested in finding and apprehending the “Anthrax Killer,” they’d be investigating Philip Zack, who once worked at Fort Detrick Maryland and was caught red handed diverting anthrax spores several years prior to 9-11 and later writing an anonymous letter attempting to implicate or frame a scientist by the name of Dr. Ayaad Assaad. [5] Instead the FBI focused its investigation on one Steven J. Hatfill and employed the media to conduct an orchestrated smear campaign on Hatfill’s character in order to convict him in the court of public opinion. [6] When their smear campaign fell apart for lack of evidence, the FBI then dropped its investigation and the media has subsequently remained silent, with nary a word about anyone else possibly being connected to the case, despite the overwhelming evidence implicating Philip Zack.
Below are some other interesting facts associated with pathogens and currency/paper:
Discover magazine documented a study that was conducted on two $20 bills, one $1 bill, and a quarter. All were wiped across a Petrie dish containing an agar base, and all produced positive results within 24 hours. The following types of bacteria were identified in the Discover magazine study. Staphylococci, micrococci, diptheroids, and propriobacteria. [7]
The article Filthy Lucre then cited a study conducted in 1972 by the Journal of the American Medical Association [8], This study cultured two hundred dollar bills and coins and found Staphylococcus Aureus, a pathogenic bacteria on 13% of coins, and 42% of bills tested.
In 1997, another study was conducted by another journal, Infections in Medicine. This study concluded that 3% of all coins, and 11% of all the bills they tested were positive for bacteria.
In 1998, a study conducted by the University of California at San Francisco revealed that out of a hundred and thirteen examples of “real life,” cash they cultured, most of the bills grew “harmless bacteria” but 18% of coins, and 7% of bills manifested pathogenic bacteria, including E-Coli, and Staph Aureus. Shirley Lowe, a microbiologist credited with conducting the study on behalf of the University stated that “half the money,” she obtained from a doughnut shop grew Staphylococcus Aureus. Lowe stated, “Anything that can get on hands can get on money.”
The article Filthy Lucre also revealed that a study conducted at the Houston Advanced Research Center in Texas found that 70-80% of all currency had trace amounts of cocaine hydrochloride on them. In older bills that had been in circulation for some time, 90% manifested trace amounts of cocaine. [9]
The Journal of Forensic Sciences conducted a study in May 1998 that concluded that more than 93% of all bills tested had trace amounts of cocaine hydrochloride present.
What does all this mean? What it means to this writer is that the FBI’s claim of ignorance was a complete lie and that their focus on the innocent Steven J. Hatfill suggests a willful attempt to ignore the far more compromised Philip Zack, who should be under investigation at this very moment for several murders and engaging in terrorism against his own nation, thus committing treason during a time of war.
