Now isn't this interesting?
Can someone tell me why these people were released from jail? Why are they not on trial with Saddam Hussain? I find it hard to believe that no
charges were filed against these two and that our government deemed these two as no longer being security threats. These people where officials in
Saddam regime and come on, the whole wmd's things, I'm pretty sure if there was indeed a wmds stockpile and program, these two would still be in
jail.
'Dr. Germ' and 'Mrs. Anthrax' released from prison in Iraq, legal
official says
But this past weekend, after more than 2½ years in detention, the scientists were quietly released without charges, a legal official in Baghdad said.
U.N. inspectors had given Taha the nickname "Dr. Germ" for her work in running the Iraqi biological weapons facility where scientists produced
anthrax and botulinum toxin in the 1980s. Taha has said that Iraq never planned to use the biological agents it produced during that time.
Ammash was dubbed "Mrs. Anthrax" for her alleged role in trying to develop biological weapons. She was No. 39, or the five of hearts, on U.S.
military's deck of cards of most-wanted Iraqis – the only woman on the list.
