#1 Not that Zarqawi's hunt for ricin has any connection to ricin letters in the US. Oh, no, no, no.

I wonder if the reports about fears of a bioweapon on a plane are garbled versions of us figuring out that al'Qaeda's moving ricin into the US on planes?

Oh, and I figured out why they'd switch to ricin from anthrax: anthrax can be defended against by irradiating the mail. That doesn't do a thing to ricin.

#3 Hmmm, yeah, maybe we got Zarqawi, and that is why the suicide bombings of kurds,(since ansar al-islam operates out of northern Iraq, kurds found him and told us where he was?) and also maybe he ordered to release the toxins if caught and that is why they were worried about the bio/chem plane plot?
If they did get him and then we got ricin in DC, well, there should be no question as to who did it.

#4 ya know, we got that guy Hassan Ghul(big al-qaida capture) last month coming into northern Iraq, and then afterwards we said we think Zarqawi was behind the UN bombing, the mosque in Najaf, etc....so obviously Ghul was giving up information.
Seems we may have gotten Zarqawi as they seem to be seeking the famous 'dire revenge'.
Chem attack warnings, chem attack in DC, huge suicide bombing on the kurds...sounds like revenge attacks to me.
Of course it could be revenge for the
capture of Ghul,done by Zarqawi.
In any matter seems like ol' Zarqawis time has come.
