Sorority Fatwah
AP— Bruce Ivins was so obsessed with the Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority that he believed it had a "fatwah" against him, once claimed to have broken into a sorority house to steal a secret handbook and claimed to know more about the organization than any other nonmember, according to government documents made public Wednesday.Wrong sorority? Ivins' alleged obsession might be more understandable if he had obsessed over Kappa Alpha Theta, a national sorority that counts Laura Bush, both Bush daughters, Lynn Cheney, Cindy Helmsley McCain, & "Plame Affair" journalist Judith Miller - who received an anthrax hoax letter, among its alumnae.

The anthrax letters all were sent from a mailbox in front of 10 Nassau St., right across from Princeton University's campus and near the building at 20 Nassau St. where Kappa Kappa Gamma, which has no official affiliation with the university, had offices.
