After the 1995 blast, Oklahoma City­based television reporter Jayna Davis spoke numerous times with task-force executive director Yossef Bodansky. He eventually gave her a memo in which he'd summarized intelligence reports detailing the operations of the terror camps. In the memo, constructed from his intelligence reports, Bodansky wrote that Iranian intelligence had ordered Hamas to develop cadres from among Palestinian youth living in the U.S.

The official government position is that Middle Eastern groups had no involvement in the 1995 bombing carried out by Timothy McVeigh, and that conclusion may stand the test of time. The FBI, however, never fully investigated leads suggesting a different verdict, according to law-enforcement and government sources who spoke on condition of anonymity.

the KC & chicago training camps were associated with hamas. wasn't this the same core group residing in OKC?

Bush could call up Mueller today and release this info. He won't. Wonder why?

Salah has described himself as a humanitarian who distributed money collected in the U.S. to needy West Bank Palestinian families. He's also reportedly worked in Arab-owned grocery stores, as a used car salesman and as a computer analyst for a Chicago-based Islamic charitable group, the Quranic Literacy Institute, which the FBI alleges was involved in money laundering.

another computer consultant. must be a popular muslim vocation?

similar to the michigan "computer salesman" bag man caught with millions in bogus cashier's checks...and the seattle dude who set up the web site for sakina security.

The operatives, Bodansky stated, were then assigned to locations throughout the U.S. He also alleged that so-called "Lilly whites" were subsequently trained at the same Chicago camps in 1993... Two individuals from Oklahoma City, he added, attended this camp. Bodansky did not name these men.

This is getting more interesting every day.

The operatives, Bodansky stated, were then assigned to locations throughout the U.S. He also alleged that so-called "Lilly whites" were subsequently trained at the same Chicago camps in 1993. These were people, whose backgrounds he stated, would not make them suspect. These individuals were given weapons training as well as the latest instruction in bomb-making techniques. Two individuals from Oklahoma City, he added, attended this camp. Bodansky did not name these men.

kinda reinforces the "lilly white" scenario in OKC?

would david shippers be privvy to this info?

Wright got no explanation at all when he was ordered to cease his own probe, said Chicago-based attorney David Schippers, who is representing Wright...

answered my own question down the article.

Last October, the Justice Department blocked the court appearance of retired Oklahoma City FBI agent Dan Vogel at a hearing in the state murder case against convicted Oklahoma City­accomplice Terry Nichols. In an interview with the Weekly, Vogel said he intended to tell the court the truth -- that he had accepted evidence from former TV reporter Jayna Davis that tied Timothy McVeigh, Nichols and a group of Iraqis working in Oklahoma City to a larger bombing conspiracy.

this is an outrage!

Jayna Davis was just interviewed about an hour ago on the Michael Smerconish show in Philadelphia (WPHT 1210). She talked about the Hamas camps in Chicago and Kansas City and also talked about Salah and Wright. A caller just raised the story of McVeigh having Iraqi phone numbers. Sen. Arlen Specter is coming up.

[Wallaby]

Sen. "Not Proven" is now on. First question: Has the administration made the case for war with Iraq? Specter says no. Also doesn't think the previous resolution covers an attack on Iraq because it is about Al-Qaeda. Now Jayna Davis story raised. Specter says he's following up on the story. Asked about Torricelli, he punts "I don't know the details beyond what is in the public domain. Now it is up to the voters of NJ."

There is an active Hamas cell in OKC today, as well as in 1995 and before. Allegedly, Samir Khalil, Al- Hussaini's OKC employeer is associated with the Hamas cell in OKC.

The entire OKC ME terrorist story is huge and would be overwhelming for the average citizen that receives all their information on the OKC bombing from the mainstream media.

Is it possible a decision has been made by Schippers and those working with him to trickle out the information to avoid information overload on the public?

[RedwM]

"Sen. Arlen Specter is coming up". I'm sure he'll clear all this up as a silly misunderstanding.

[Wallaby]

See my post #14 for a summation of his 2 minutes. A big disappointment. (What a surprise!) Smerconish was exceedingly solicitous. Let Specter get by with just a "we're looking into it" response to the Davis interview.

[Magnum44]

special agent Robert Wright has accused the agency of shutting down his 1998 criminal probe into alleged terrorist-training camps in Chicago and Kansas City...

One of these days, I hope to see somebody, anybody, actually held accountable for the 8 years of Klintonista treason that occured wrt the security of this country. Its only a dream I have...
