McVeigh's Ghost - Top Pentagon Officials Say Iraq Involved in OKC Bombing

US News & World Report/ Fox & Friends ^ | October 23, 2001 | Paul Bedard

Some dismiss it as being akin to Elvis sightings, but a few top Defense officials think Oklahoma City bomber Tim McVeigh was an Iraqi agent. The theory stems from a never-before-reported allegation that McVeigh had allegedly collected Iraqi telephone numbers. Why haven't we heard this before about the case of the executed McVeigh? Conspiracy theorists in the Pentagon think it's part of a coverup.

And just who removed the license plate on the getaway vehicle?

Clinton couldn't finance a war and have a surplus at the same time. And that was his number one priority....he had all the war funds in Al Gore's lock box.

I am so glad to see this information slowly making its' way into the mainstream press. I'd been wondering if it ever would.

I think Terry Nichols got bomb making knowledge from Abu Sayyef (like an Al-Q) in the Philippines.
Here's a link to a listing of terrorist orgs.

I don't remember, but heard somebody say that we rounded up all the Iranian students that were here on student visas during the hostage crisis, and shipped them home. Why don't we do that now with middle eastern countries students? Lord knows, we have enough students from the good old USA that will be out there beating the drums against anything that we do to protect ourselves and our soldiers..... We don't need the extra security risks on our shores let alone teach them enough about bio chem and chem to kill us later.

There is some thought that Egyptair 900 out of New York was a 'training run' per say and the pilot by himself did not have the skill nor training to do the deed of crashing the vessel into the Capitol, White House etc. and just flew it into the ocean.

This begat the teams of terrorists with only the one true believer/ trained pilot like Mohammad Atta who knew they were going to die, and the other 4 hijackers on the team were none the wiser before it was too late to do anything.

Young men going to die don't smile into airport security cameras in Portland-only Atta had the grim face telling he knew what he was about to do.

I do not have a link. I just remember it was discussed a lot on freeRepublic this summer. Chandra worked for the Bureau of Prisons before she was rather abruptly dismissed due to misunderstanding regarding the timing of her internship. She was doing something regarding the McVeigh execution. I do not remember the details, but I would think someone on this forum would remember. It can probably be found in the archives here. I will try and do some research on it tomorrow.

Terrorists may or may not claim responsibility. Notice they're not exactly forthcoming about the anthrax.

Also, Slick could control the media by simply spoon-feeding them what he wanted them to know or not know. Remember, the only people who possibly might have known would have been under Slick's control.

In re: the completely politicized Justice dept., US Attorneys, BATF, CIA, etc.,P. So, journalists didn't have a clue, with the exception of Ambrose Pritchard.

Is the date for an upcoming issue or is it a typo??

I'm sure that it is the date of the upcoming issue -- which is probably already out. USNews always dates their issues beyond the actual date of distribution.

[mewzilla]

Good point. But why couldn't Sad-damn have blackmailed Bubba and certain Congress critters? Bubba could have decided out of political expediency to suddenly go after Hussein. Seems to me the only way Sad-damn could guarantee that no-one would come after him is if he made sure. Blackmail would do it.

[afraidfortherepublic]

She was doing something regarding the McVeigh execution. I do not remember the details,

I think she was arranging press briefings in advance of the execution.

[Levy -> McVeigh]Can you provide a link?
Here's one . Do I have to put on a tinfoil hat?

More on OKC Bombing-Middle East Connection

[skeeter]

It was the answers to Clinton politic "prays", OKC being Iraq is Clinton politic hell.

It just occurred to me that his recent lamenting about not being president during a foreign attack (which struck many as an unusually morbid sentiment) may have been more Clinton obfuscation. It may yet turn out that he was!

I mean, Clinton has always used 'leaked, off-the-record' lies in addition to his public whoppers to confuse & mislead.

[WhiteGuy]

I am realizing, I think, that we have been under terrorist attack for some 8 years now. And they have made some big scores:

WTC (1st time), OKC, TWA-800, possibly Egyptair....

and now, under a real administration with real leadership, it has happened again.
Methinks dubya is going to pronounce the truth to the American people....
and then get on with the business of WW111.

Actually, from where I sit, this goes back to the Gulf War

It was about controlling the world's suplly of oil then,
and it's about controlling the world's supply of oil now.

Operation Desert Storm never ended, what we've seem since have been acts of war, nothing less.

Why have we been lied to? Why has this been kept from us?

Might it have been the unfortunate surprise upset victory by Bill Clinton in 1992 and his re-election in 1996. Could it be that the Bush family has wanted to control the world's oil, was about to do just that (in '92) but has had to wait until now??????

I'm weirding myself out?????

[afraidfortherepublic]

I think dogbyte12 may have the link about Chandra working on the McVeigh case. It was discussed at length last summer.

[summer]

Interesting thread here....

[LSJohn]

FWIW, another case like those I have mentioned in the past in which Wolfowitz seemingly has spoken "off the script." I don't trust him, but note that he often veers from the official line, meaning he's either used often to float balloons or he's not the ultimate insider.

BDD: Something to keep in mind -- if Wolfowitz is asked the right questions in the right forum by the right person, some interesting answers might occasionally result.

That's why I went to the sourced page... Nebulous, but intriguing.
