The Laughing Wolf

But For Luck And Curiosity

There is a very disturbing story from Reuters about an Egyptian sailor who has died of anthrax in Brazil. If the story is accurate, he was acting as a courier and got curious about the contents of a suitcase he had been given to take to Canada. This is somewhat old news in Canada according to comments at Little Green Footballs, who appear to have broken the story in the blogs.

Joe Katzman has a very good post about it at Winds of Change and you need to go read both it and his previous, excellent piece Toxic Terror Tick-Tock.

Folks, the war is truly just beginning. It is a long fight, and the enemy will fight as dirty as they can. Yes, we did show what happens to any country who tries to fight, but that country may well have flushed out a lot of nastiness before it went down. Panic won't help, but good rational preparation will. Think, given all, I may just change the order of some planned posts and get out some stuff on rational preparedness soon.
