Real Torture Enthusiast Victim of Fake Anthrax

Torture cheerleader and Harvard professor Alan Dershowitz was the victim of a fake anthrax attack yesterday, an episode that caused the evacuation of the Law School's Hauser Hall. Dershowitz received a sarcastic "thank you" card filled with white powder from a correspondent in Knoxville, Tennessee, who sent a similar note to the Wall Street Journal, which had recently run an editorial by Dershowitz defending Israel's ongoing military action in Gaza.
