hell ANFO would be commonly available and producable.

He tried to buy a lager quantity of ammonium nitrate a few days before his demise.

The company's founder and the wrench's so-called inventor, Karl Peterson, really did nothing more than buy the design from a Swedish immigrant, who had seen similar wrenches made in his homeland.

Those damm Swede møøslimbs!

*shrug* I didn't know my college roommate had several quarter pound blocks of TNT, C-4 and detonators until I happened to see them in his footlocker one day...

Gee...I am Sooooooo shocked and surprised at that fact...and just where is the Lamestream Marxist Media with that fact? Or are they too busy up Boren's behind that the Islamazi connection just isn't on their radar?

And, as we all know, ANFO is THE choice of depressed loners contemplating a quiet suicide...with TATP a close second!

New details emerged Friday when U.S. Magistrate Valerie Couch made public the records on the FBI search of Hinrichs' apartment, his e-mail account and nine OU computers.

Federal prosecutors told the magistrate "there is no longer any necessity" for the documents to remain sealed. ==============================================================

The Suspicious Parser opines........

The documents have now been carefully "sanitized" so there is no longer any reason for them to remained sealed.

This terrorist mentality is what is dangerous. The kid left a message that we could kiss his ass; that is indicative of a thought process that is guided by the need to influence others...even at the cost of one's own life.

So many people hope to do good. It's sad that the Islamic mutants want to do bad in the name of good. In doing so they use the same psychology that helped the Nazis in the thirties gain power in Germany, and, to a much lesser extent, is being used by today's democrats.

In these cases, hatred is the foundation of their actions. The Democrats run on hatred, al Qaeda runs on hatred, the Nazis ran on hatred. Of the three, I only believe the democrats have the ability to cure themselves. When will they wake up?

Cheema says he never knew? He expects us to believe this?

Yours is the most likely reason for this continuing coverup--and I'm convinced that's what it is.

Except that befoer the clamped down on the reporting, it was stated that it was enough to blow up the whole building. It took almost a full day to cart the stuff off. When they blew it up at another site, the blasts shook houses miles away. Sounds like a bit more than "firecracker."

For the record, this stuff apparently has a distinctive odor to it. They arrested a guy in San Diego because of the odor from his "experiments" because they thought it was a meth lab.

why would so MANY in the FBI---who are honest, and who have a reputation to maintain (and I've known some) go along with a cover-up of OK City? And now this? On the other hand, how in the world can they NOT raise questions about a Middle Eastern roommate, visits to a mosque, and London-style explosive attacks??

I don't think we are yet seeing the picture here.

Me neither.....but I'm becoming less and less "surprised" about govt. cover-ups.

Plus, remember that according to other articles, they found packed bags in his apartment, and a road atlas on the front seat of his car. He was planning on making a road trip, also known as "bugging out after the bomb."

Someone--Cheema maybe?--had a one-way ticket to Morrocco, supposedly for spring break (which, I note, is some months away).

I suspect, though, there are some good reasons. I'd just like to know what they are.

Do they make a left handed crescent wrench?

Absolutely. And they also come in metric sizes.

It's one thing to not tell all/critical info., as with any on-going investigation.

It's quite another to pretend or deny that more members of AQ aren't here (we already know of those that hijacked the 9/11 airplanes, and of a few groups arrested in NY and other areas....one can't believe they are the ONLY ones who came into the U.S. or remain here) or hasn't been/isn't captured in attempts to get into the U.S. For example, when the London tube bombings occurred, when the Bali bombings occurred, and when the recent Jordanian bombing occurred, OUR govt. and the media makes constant announcements....but when something happens here, as in this stadium case, unless it's so OBVIOUS like what happened at the WTC, where they cannot make denials, we hear almost nothing about it or there being any connection to any group of muslims or terrorists, much less AQ.

But they are coming in.

Sheriff West, from the Rio Grande area, stated:

Lawmaker: Terror war spilling across border

"He was part of al-Qaida,"...."The written communication that we were able to obtain was...in the nature of code words." He said the alleged operative was transferred from Mexico to Brewster County, which borders Hudspeth County, "in the custody of the U.S. Marshal Service."

And, FBI Director Mueller testifying under oath, stated:

'[t]he FBI has received reports that individuals from countries with known al-Qaida connections have attempted to enter the U.S. illegally using alien smuggling rings and assuming Hispanic appearances. An FBI investigation into these reports continues.'

I guess it depends on how much of a space shot his roommate is. But personally, I very much doubt it.
