Another mysterious suicide. Remember Dr. David Kelly microbiologist
from the UK? Wasn't there also a suicide here in the US from someone who jumped off the state dept building or something similar?

David Christopher Kelly CMG (May 17, 1944 – July 17, 2003) was an employee of the United Kingdom Ministry of Defence (MoD), an expert in biological warfare and a former United Nations weapons inspector in Iraq. Kelly's discussion with Today Programme journalist Andrew Gilligan about the British government's dossier on weapons of mass destruction (WMD) in Iraq inadvertently caused a major political scandal. He was found dead days after appearing before the Parliamentary committee charged with investigating the scandal.

The Hutton Inquiry, a public inquiry into the circumstances surrounding his death, ruled that he had committed suicide and that Kelly had not in fact said some of the things attributed to him by Gilligan.

Consistent with Mikulski's avowal, Bolton has been tied to the mysterious death of John Kokal, an official of the State Department's Bureau of Intelligence and Research Near East and South Asian division (INR/NESA).

12. The Dentist...

a snip/
"PART 1 OF 2) David Graham, a dentist from Louisiana, stumbled onto the path of three 9/11 hijackers 10 months before the attacks. Graham reported his encounter several times to the FBI but never heard back. In September 2006 he died under highly suspicious circumstances. "

13. I think the correct term for some of these is "suicided"
We may learned this technique from the Chinese or maybe they learned from us.

“Being suicided” is a new term growing popular on the Internet in China today. It generally refers to deaths that are announced by Chinese authorities to be suicides, but where foul play is suspected.
