Why did some White House staffers start taking Cipro, a powerful antibiotic used as a treatment against anthrax, on September 11th?
These precautionary measures were taken by the White House a full three weeks before the first evidence of the U.S. anthrax attacks surfaced.
The watchdog group, Judicial Watch, is trying to find out what the White House knew and when.

6. Targets were prominent Dems and

major networks....Clearly a warning shot fired by the BFEE.

They had to stop when innocent postal workers and citizens started dying. Murderous bastards.

BioPort Corporation is the only company in the United States with a license to make the Anthrax Vaccine. In actuality, BioPort does not actually make the vaccine; it acquired the lab that does, in 1998, Michigan Biologic Products Institute, from the State of Michigan.

Along with the actual Anthrax Vaccine, BioPort acquired Michigan Biologic Products Institute's sole and exclusive customer for the vaccine, the U.S. Department of Defense.

Yet, the great paradox of the situation comes when one learns that since acquiring Michigan Biologics, BioPort has barely delivered a drop of the stuff!

Only 4% of the vaccine contracted for has been delivered. FDA audits have uncovered suspicious record keeping and contamination problems, causing the FDA to ban delivery of the product. Despite this ban, the U.S. Government has continued to front BioPort millions of dollars to keep the operation going.

It turned out to be a good investment. Market demand has pushed the price of the product high above the contracted for $3.50 an ounce.

The Bin Laden family trust invested in BioPort at the advice of the Carlyle Group as they have in a myriad of projects. The brothers did divest themselves of their ownership stakes after the Wall Street Journal briefly mentioned the close relationship between Carlyle and their family. George H.W. Bush and the others continue to profit from BioPort. Some estimates put the shortage created by the FDA bans as driving the price of the vaccine up to thousands of dollars per ounce. (The same amount of Anthrax treatment Cipro that sells for $20 in India now costs $690 in the U.S).
