Anthrax: is there a
Castro connection?
Special Report
Tallahassee: Florida
TNA News with Commentary
Monday 15 October 2001
The death by anthrax of the photo editor for The Sun Supermarket, an
American Media publication, and the infection of five more employees
have set alarm bells ringing. But what has caused further concern is
that the letters contaminated with anthrax spores that had been sent
to The New York Times and NBC were posted from the same St Petersburg
post office, Florida.
Suspicions of a bin Laden connection hardened with the knowledge that
Mohamed Atta, the lead hijacker, lived within 3 miles of American
Media’s offices and had also joined the same gym where many of the
company’s employees worked out. A report by a a local chemist from
whom Atta tried to buy an antibiotic used to treat anthrax suggests
he exhibited symptoms of the disease.
It’s now well known that Atta and others from the Middle East (nationality apparently
unknown) made detailed inquiries at Florida’s Belle Glade State Municipal Airport
about crop-dusting planes, their speed, carrying capa
city, handling problems, etc.
All of this fits in with the government’s conclusive evidence, some provided by al
Qaeda defectors, that bin Laden operatives were instructed at his Afghanistan
terrorist training camps in the use of chemical and biologic
al weapons. This was also confirmed by Ahmed Ressam, an Algerian member of al Qaeda
who was part of a plot to bomb Los Angeles International Airport during the 2000
millennium celebrations. Ressam spilled the beans after
turning state’s evidence. He also told his debriefers that bin Laden had discussed the
use of crop-dusting planes as part of his terrorist operations in the US.
Obviously one doesn’t need a degree in rocket science to detect a sinister connection
between the athrax attacks and bin Laden’s terrorist network. However, the picture now
gets a little murky. Did he get the anthrax spor
es from the Russian Mafia or from corrupt Russian scientists or did he manufacture it
himself? Some people are naturally pointing the finger at Saddam Hussein as the real
source of the spores.
Did Castro supply
bin Laden with
anthrax spores?
Nevertheless, there is another suspect whose name has been left out of the public
picture but not out of the speculations of our intelligence agencies — and that is the
psychotic Fidel Castro who shares bin Laden’s insane
hatred of America and the West. Some intelligence analysts have asked a simple
question: “Why should anyone go to the trouble of producing anthrax and then risk
shipping it half way round the world when their good pal i
n Cuba, a mere 90 miles from the Florida coast, can provide him with all he needs at a
moment’s notice?”
Several facts are pointing the finger at Castro as being the potential source:
1. Alvaro Prendes, a Cuban air force colonel who defected to the US, supplied
documents showing the location of 5 of Castro’s chemical and biological-weapons
plants, confirming information that US intelligence had alrea
dy obtained.
2. Ken Alibek, a Soviet Colonel who had been second-in-command of the USSR’s
bacteriological arms development program, has continually warned that Castro has
produced biological weapons.
3. There have been reliable reports of Cuban political prisoners being used in deadly
biological experiments. Armando Valladeros who spent 20 years in Castro’s
concentration camps is one of those who testified to the exis
tence of these experiments.
4. The DGI (Castro’s secret service which is modeled on the KGB) is linked to bin
Laden’s terrorist network and also engages in terrorism and in smuggling cocaine into
the US.
5. Castro has been in personal contact with bin Laden which also involved financial
transactions the nature of which are apparently unknown outside Castro and bin Laden’s
inner circle.
6. Castro’s spy network is concentrated in Florida. Readers should recall the recent
trial in Florida of Cuban agents who had been part of the Wasp Network, just one of
the intelligence networks that the DGI had built up
in the state.
7. Castro’s drug-smuggling activities and his ability to easily plant
agents in Florida would provide bin Laden with a safe means by which
his own agents could receive anthrax spores from DGI agents. Once the
exchange had been made there would be no way of directly linking
Castro with any anthrax outbreak, especially since it’s quite
possible that those bin Laden’s agents that made the exchange would
be dead. Even those who sent out anthrax contaminated letters after
the attack on New York and the Pentagon would have no way of knowing
the original source of the spores since they were not the ones who
got them from the DGI agents.
Of course, the anthrax threat could be the work of a lone lunatic. On
the other hand, since the attacks have bin Laden’s fingerprints all
over them, Castro has some explaining to do. He and his admirers in
the West could start by telling the rest of us why he is producing
biological weapons as well as cooperating with bin Laden.
