It was a staged state-sponsored incident. Francis Boyle said "the trail of genetic evidence would have led directly back to a secret but officially-sponsored US government biowarfare program that was illegal and criminal."US laws and biological weapons conventions were violated. Boyle added:
"I believe the FBI knows exactly who was behind these terrorist anthrax attacks upon the United States Congress in the Fall of 2001, and that the culprits were US government-related scientists involved in a criminal US government biowarfare program."
A whitewashed investigation followed. Those involved were sworn to secrecy. Boyle's an international law and bioweapons expert. Clarity Press published his book, titled "Biowarfare and Terrorism."
Look no further than Washington for responsibility. State-sponsored terrorism lay behind it, the 9/11 attacks, imperial lawlessness that followed, and police state crackdowns on dissenters.
Origins of May Day
Its roots lie in Chicago. The Federation of Organized Trades and Labor Unions chose May 1, 1886 to strike. At issue was an eight-hour work day. National rallies were held. Around half a million participated. Chicago was its epicenter. Thousands turned out. Estimates ranged up to 80,000.
Two days later, police responded violently. Unarmed strikers were attacked. Six died.
On May 4, the landmark Haymarket Square protest followed. Eight organizers led it - Albert Parsons, August Spies, Samuel Fielden, Eugene Schwab, Adolph Fischer, George Engel, Louis Ling and Oscar Neebe.
