Nicholas Kristof again forgets that columnists are only supposed to opine and complain, and instead breaks some rather shocking news on the FBI’s anthrax investigation, or rather its lack thereof:
Almost everyone who has encountered the F.B.I. anthrax investigation is aghast at the bureau’s lethargy. Some in the biodefense community think they know a likely culprit, whom I’ll call Mr. Z. Although the bureau has polygraphed Mr. Z, searched his home twice and interviewed him four times, it has not placed him under surveillance or asked its outside handwriting expert to compare his writing to that on the anthrax letters.
Incompetence? Plodding? Genocidal white supremacists who go on to senior positions in the American biodefense establishment? It’s all here.
