Richard Jewell/FBI/ Muslim connection? (60 Minutes II)

In regard to the Atlantic bombing story on 60 Minutes II this evening, did anyone notice that the "out-of-the-way coffee shop" where the FBI met Richard Jewell and his attorney, in order to let them no that he was not a suspect in the Atlanta bombings, just happened to be a "Caribou Coffee" shop?

A coffee chain owned by Muslim supporter(s) and basically people who rally behind the radical Palestinians in the Middle East.  They recently condemned Starbucks' Israeli owner of anti-Muslim rhetoric at  a speech given by him in Seattle (earlier in June '02, I believe)? An accusation, by the way, that was condemned by most of the press that covered that story a week or two ago.

Coincidence?

(The "Caribou Coffee" sign was in  the background of your footage of that location.)

From Richard Jewell story transscript (6-26-02 - 60 Minutes II):

"In late October of 1996, the U.S. Attorney finally wrote a letter saying Jewell was not considered a target of the federal criminal investigation - a statement delivered to one of Jewell's lawyers at an out-of-the-way coffee shop, far away from the TV cameras."

Just curious.

A friend sent this to me. Good questions.

REBLOCHON

 

	Lait de Vache
	Forme: Rond Pâte: Pressée non cuite
	Poids: 240 g à 280 g
	Saison: Toute l'année
	Affinage: 2 à 4 semaines
	Vin: Vins blancs de Savoie ou Pommard

Le Roblochon est le premier fromage de Savoie à avoir obtenu l'AOC, en 1958 selon un texte initial, il se compose d'un mélange de 3 laits provenant des 3 races de vache qui lui permet de revendiquer l'AOC : abondance, tarine et montbéliarde Le Reblochon est né de l'ingéniosité des bergers savoyards. Au XIII éme siécle, ils dépendaient des grands propriétaires à qui il devaient remettre le produit de la traite. Pour garder un peu de lait , ils ne trayaient pas complétement leurs bêtes. Ce n'est qu'aprés le départ des régisseurs qu'ils recueillaient le reste du lait: ils "re-blochaient". D'où le nom dérivée du Reblochon fabriqué avec ce lait trés riche en crême, de seconde traite. Il est placé en hâloir pour le séchage et y sera retourné tous les 2 jours et lavé au petit lait. C'est au cours de cette étape qu'il se parera d'une croûte jaune safran recouverte d'une fine mousse blanche. Sa saveur fine et noisettée contraste parfois avec la forte odeur de cave qui se dégage du reblochon. Crémeux, le reblochon est souvent relevé par des arômes herbacés. La pâte ivoire est d'une consistance onctueuse et souple.

bttt

[KC_Conspirator]

Yes. Total coincidence.

I saw the interview last night and Mike Wallace said something that gave me a little respect for him: he reminded the viewers that in all the hoopla and media spin about Richard Jewell's and the false accusation that came from the inept Reno Justice Depeartment we forget that on that day in Atlanta, Richard Jewell saved lives.

TIN-FOIL TURBAN ALERT!!!

Fair enough.

Come to think of it, that WAS Kevin Bacon who walked by.

Poor Richard was chosen as the prime suspect for the Atlanta bombing because he was a white male; he fit the profile. The Clinton influenced FBI wanted to blame all terrorism on conservative right wing fanatics. In my opinion, the Olympic bombing could very well have been done by Arabs. There really was no investigation in that direction. I notice that more and more people are talking about the Middle-Eastern connection in the Oklahoma City bombing. It is a frightening thought that American citizens could be recruited into a war against America.

Your friend sent something as from a professional journalist?... Or as rumor

...in order to let them no that he was not a suspect in the Atlanta bombings, just happened to be a "Caribou Coffee" shop? OOPS!

[SerpentDove]

I never claimed this was more than specultion. Please pardon the typo; no, obviously, he is not a professional journalist.

Te peut dire cet dans anglais?
It looks like it would be a good recipe. My French "ain't all that".

[philman_36]

Fromage!

[alnick]

Hasn't Mr. Jewell been slandered enough?

[SerpentDove]

Who's slandering Richard Jewell? It's just kind of an ironic observation my friend made which I posted for "discussion."

Sheesh...I guess I thought this was a forum or something.

[Rebelbase]

I sure hope Jewell scored well in his lawsuits that were settled. BTW, has anyone seen Eric Rudolph lately? Hahaha

[TrappedInLiberalHell]

Coincidence?

No, just another Turban Legend.
