The hunt for the source of the weapons-grade anthrax that shut down the heart of the American political establishment yesterday has already produced many false trails. Much of the focus has been on Iraq, but according to the world's leading germ warfare experts the finger of suspicion points more directly at Russia's broken-down military industrial complex. If the finger of suspicion falls on any one country "the obvious one is Russia, it's a league ahead of Iraq", said David Kelly, a senior adviser to UN weapons inspectors for Iraq.
Other countries that are thought to be working on a biological weapons program include Iran, North Korea, Libya, Cuba, Egypt and Pakistan.
Unemployed top Russian scientists who helped to run the Soviet Union's illegal and secret germ warfare program appear to be a likely source of the anthrax outbreak in the United States. It is known that Osama bin Laden's al-Qa'ida network has tried to buy ingredients for weapons of mass destruction in Russia in recent years.
The secret Russian germ warfare program was set up in the 1970s to allow Moscow to cheat on its treaty commitments to destroy all its anthrax and other germ warfare stocks. Experts believe parts of the program are still operating today. Moreover, the scientists who worked on the program until it was officially disbanded in 1992 may have sold their secrets on the open market. Mr Kelly said that of the 30,000 people who worked for the Soviet agency known as Biopreparat, "between three and four thousand were professional scientists. Some would be available to go elsewhere."
The al-Qa'ida network is known to be awash with funds, thanks to the fundraising activities of Saudi-based charities and Mr bin Laden's personal fortune.
The full extent of Russia's cheating was revealed to the CIA by Ken Alibek, the deputy director of Biopreparat, when he defected in 1992. Mr Alibek has described how the Soviet Union churned out two tons of anthrax a day at Stepanagorsk in Kazakhstan and said the Russians covered up an outbreak of anthrax in the Urals in 1979. He told a United States congressional committee last week: "There are pieces of Biopreparat that are still running, some with a very high level of secrecy." No one knows where up to 50 Russian scientists possessing secrets on weapons-grade anthrax may be today, he added.
The strain found to have affected the 34 staff members of the US Senate yesterday was a highly potent, finely milled weapons-grade powder.
Dick Spertzl, a bio-warfare expert in America, said: "Any dedicated individual can learn how to make weapons-grade anthrax. If they had an adviser, it would be easier." But turning the laboratory-produced liquid into the powder spores is much harder. "The knowledge of drying is not that common," Mr Spertzl said. According to the experts, Iraq had concentrated on the liquid variety of anthrax, which could infect its victims via so-called "drop tanks" or aerosols.
Only three countries, Iraq, the United States and Russia, have turned anthrax into a weapon. Britain announced in 1956 that it was ending its offensive anthrax program. The US abandoned its own program in 1969, and says it is concentrating on biodefence. But Russian scientists at Biopreparat continued to work clandestinely on the secret anthrax weapons.
Iraq is believed to possess at least 8.4 tons of concentrated liquid anthrax, despite telling United Nations weapons inspectors that all stocks had been destroyed in 1991. Ewen Buchanan, the spokesman for the UN inspectors responsible for disarming Iraq, says: "We had concerns that Iraq was attempting to store it as a dry product, but no hard evidence." Mr Kelly also said that "we know that Iraq went to the British patents office in the dissemination area in the 1980s, or wet dissemination", but he cautioned against assuming that state-sponsored terrorism lay behind the outbreaks.
Three of the 19 hijackers of the 11 September attacks have been linked to Russia's rebellious republic of Chechnya and the ringleader, Mohamed Atta, twice met an Iraqi intelligence agent in Prague. American officials say, though, that such meetings did not prove Iraq's involvement in any terrorist acts. Mr Kelly said Iraq, which has won support from Arab states for its efforts to break out of the 10-year-old UN sanctions, has "too much at stake" to take part in such action.
The use of the term "high grade" anthrax could mean that it is either more potent or easier to disseminate. British experts in bio-warfare said the term probably means that it is of a genetic strain that is more infectious or that its powdered spores are in a form that is easier to inhale, so causing the most lethal form of anthrax.
The anthrax mailed to the Florida newspaper belonged to the standard Ames strain, which is not known to be significantly more virulent than others. Professor Alastair Hay, a bio-warfare specialist at Leeds University, said "high grade" anthrax suggests that it might be a strain that is more infectious, with a relatively small number of spores capable of causing a lung infection. It normally takes between 2,500 and 10,000 spores to be inhaled to cause pulmonary anthrax, so a strain that could result in disease with fewer spores would be sought by bio-warfare terrorists.
The other way of making anthrax more deadly is to grind it into a fine powder that easily floats in the air. One of the greatest concerns is that anthrax, which is not contagious, may be genetically altered so that it is.
The different strains of anthrax
The use of the term "high grade" anthrax could mean that the bacteria possess one of a number of traits that makes the microbe more lethal as a terror weapon, either by making it more potent or easier to disseminate. British experts in bio-warfare said "high grade" or "military grade" anthrax are most likely to mean that the microbe is of a genetic strain that is more infectious or that its powdered spores are in a form that is easier to inhale, so causing the most lethal form of anthrax.

The amazing Bayside Prophecies...
COSMETIC
ACT TO DELUDE YOU
"I assure you, My
children, there is no freedom in Russia. It is all a delusion.
"They seek the monies
of the world from the nations of the world. And why do you not learn a lesson?
It happened in the time of Lenin; it happened in the time of Stalin. And there
you are all on the same road, ready to give billions of monies that should be
given to those of your nation and the free nations of the world.
"Do not be deceived, My
children, Russia is not free. It is a cosmetic act to delude you. Lenin and
Stalin used the same tactics, My children. Why do you not learn from your
errors?" - Our Lady, June 18, 1992
YOU
DID NOT
LISTEN
"I have asked you in countless visitations to earth to pray and pray
again that Russia would not send her errors throughout the world. But you did
not listen, carried away with the cares of your world, being materialistic,
casting aside spirituality for power and greed. What will you gain if you obtain
this power and you leave your earth without merit and cannot enter the eternal
Kingdom of Heaven?" - Our Lady, March 15, 1978
SHALL NOT
ESCAPE
"The United States of
America shall not escape this time the punishments and the desolation of the
nation that has gone now throughout the world, with Russia as the main force for
this evil.
"Man was created to
live peacefully. Man was created to know his God, and in this manner to have a
world that is not a paradise, but one in which man could live in peace and
security. But now all of the leaders of the world run about and they say it is
peace, it is security. Their words are like two prongs from the mouth: they say
those words, but then they turn their backs and they are busy getting ready for
a major invasion of the United States and Canada.
"Yes, My child, all who
read and listen to the Message must know that there is a plan now for Russia, a
plan against the United States and Canada. Your nation and Canada are
surrounded!" - Our Lady, March 26, 1983
GREAT
THREAT
"My child and My children,
there is one thing I wish to bring to you this evening: that is the word of
Russia. You do not understand the great threat she is to the world. I say 'she'
because We have nothing else that exemplative of explaining the necessity to
convert Russia. Now My Mother in the past has told you through countless
earth-years of visits upon earth how to do this. I repeat from My Mother Her
words to the world some time ago-and I believe, My child, you have been a
voice-box before and a means for Heaven to transport this message to the
world-that is, that the Holy Father in Rome, in unison with all of the bishops
of the world, must consecrate Russia to the Immaculate Heart of My Mother."
- Jesus, March 18, 1989
ENSLAVEMENT
"My Mother came to you at
Fatima warning that unless man stopped his path to perdition, Russia would
spread her errors throughout your world causing misery, sufferings, and death
and enslavement. My children, you did not listen and act upon Her counsel then,
just as many now do not listen and act upon Her counsel. It is a part of human
nature to exercise too free a will to reject. And this, I say, falls also onto
My pastors who are scattering My sheep in My House." - Jesus,
May 27, 1978
Keep your sacramentals about your necks...
Our Lady - "Keep your sacramentals about your necks. I say about your
necks, not for decoration, but because many shall flee with only what they have
on their bodies! It is now a supernatural protection, My children, that
you have: your medals, your scapulars, and even your Rosary, your beads of
prayer about your neck, your children's necks and all those who wish to be
saved.
"The monuments, the statues, must be kept in your homes.
As it was in the days of old, the angel of death shall pass by those who retain
the monuments in their homes." (5-18-77)

Crucifix to guard entrances to home…
Jesus - "I must reveal, My children, to the world
again, that you are to keep a crucifix on your front door and your back door.
All entrances to your home must be guarded by the crucifix. There has not been
one home on Long Island that had a crucifix on its door that did fall to any
evil. I do not speak of the trees, My child; I speak of mankind. You did not
know a major disaster as has happened, My children, in Mexico. You see, My
child, I set you down in that area to bring the word to mankind, and it was
through these words that many listened and the passed through the horrible
experience of a hurricane." (10-5-85)
Heaven’s Home Protection Packet...
Our Lord stated we must have crucifixes upon the outside of all of our
outside doors. In the "Heaven’s Home Protection Packet" there are
instructions, four crucifixes, and a tube of special cement for wooden or metal
crucifixes. Wooden crucifixes adhere better to the doors when the aluminum strap
is removed from the back. Put a light coat of cement on the back of the crucifix
and then press it to the outside of the door. If you have any problems, you can
call us at 616-698-6448 for assistance. This Heaven’s Home Protection Packet
