Iraqi Military Officers in OKC and Lincoln, Neb.
Skolnick Report ^ | unk. | S. Skolnick

Posted on 12/11/2001 3:16:30 PM PST by rdavis84

Iraqi Military Officers in OKC and Lincoln, Neb.

"As made known to the CIA, were the following, among other details:
That George Herbert Walker Bush, as President, at the close of the Persian Gulf War, 1991, arranged to bring into the U.S. some four thousand Iraqi military officers, some from intelligence units, and their families.
Some 550 of these officers became residents in Lincoln, Nebraska, AND TWO THOUSAND OF THEM took up residence in Oklahoma City. In a watered down story, CBS' "60 Minutes" Program did a segment once on this about Lincoln, Nebraska but said NOTHING about the Iraqi military officers in Oklahoma City.
The financial and other provisions for them and their families were arranged by the Elder Bush, and then quietly continued by Bill Clinton as President, and perpetuated by George W. Bush as White House "resident" and "occupant". The arrangements included financial subsidies, housing, and employment for the Iraqi officers. [A brave Oklahoma City TV Reporter, Jayna Davis, on their local TV station, put on the air several stories about the Iraqi connection to the bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Building, the bombing done with the aid of domestic dissidents as surrogates. A group bought out the TV station and silenced her. Timothy McVeigh's chief defense counsel for the murder trial, Stephen Jones, on behalf of McVeigh, filed an extra-ordinary petition in the next higher court, just prior to the murder trial. To no avail, Jones tried to force Denver U.S. District Judge Richard Matsch to compel the American CIA to disgorge records held by them showing prior U.S. knowledge of the bombing, as confirmed by other known records, some of them also in secret court records. We have a copy of the 185 page U.S. Court of Appeals, 10th Circuit, petition filed by Jones and almost uniformly ignored by the American monopoly press. The petition raises the Iraqi connection.]"

Can anyone supply published info on this relocation of Iraqi officers after the Gulf Event?

I am not sure. I don't recall seeing it, and I no longer have access to the Daily Oklahoman's archives. Maybe I should cough up the dough and go through them again.

Well, he has a contention here that we ought to see if there's verification for.

Got any sources in OKC?

I can personally testify to the fact that almost all (the rest I do not know about for sure one way or another) of this Skolnick article is accurate. I do not know Skolnick nor do I always believe his information is accurate. But in this case, from what I know independent of Skolnick, what he has written here is basically correct.

Jones motion to force the CIA to tell what it knew was in his Writ of Mandamus filed March 25, 1996 and it implicates Iraqis and Abu Sayeff(AlQaeda -Bin LAden in the Phillipines). The Writ was prepared with the assistance of the former Pentagon terror advisor Jesse Clear.

The group that bought out KFORTV, that shut down its investigation (in my opinion as a favor to Bill CLinton) and also unsucessfully sued reporter Jayna Davis, was the New York Times who still controls the station.

The only things about Skolnick's article I do not know for sure about were the actual total numbers of Iraqi officers brought to the US and how the numbers were distributed between Nebraska and OKC by Bush/Clinton after the gulf war.

I have heard and read numbers ranging from 2000 to 8000 but these numbers contained women and children, political dissidents, other non military Iraqis. I do not know how many military Iraqis and intel Iraqis were brought in among the 2000 to 8000.

I had a 1995 article from the Salt Lake Tribune that discusses members of the Iraqi Republican guard being brought to the US by Clinton/Bush over the objections of some Congressmen and POW/MIA family organizations. I gave this article to KFORTV in early May 1995 which led them to discover that their chief suspect Al Hussain Hussaini was in fact one of the men who had been brought to OKC and who had served in the Iraqi Republican guard.

I also heard Mike Reagan discuss on his radio program in 1995 other Iraqis who had been brought into the US who had committed robberies and murders. And I found out about a group of 35 Iraqis who had been brought to OKC and placed with two different churches in OKC in late 1994 and early 1995.

It is also a fact that Iraqis from the gulf war were also settled in Nebraska and some were imprisoned later for illegal marriages to minors through their mosques.

BillyBob's assertion that Skolnick's info is nonsense always is wrong. I lived in Chicago for a long time and it is a fact of history that Skolnich was correct about a number of corrupt judges he succeeded in having put behind bars. And as I have written here, Skolnick's information posted on this thread is basically correct not withstanding my caution at not believing everything Skolnick puts out.

On certain issues, I would say beware of BillyBob , his motives, his agenda, who he reports to even more than I would say beware of Skolnick.

We agree on Skolnick and BillyBob. I've got another Specific item that dealt with some "Invisible Banks" that were set up, that he (Skolnick) input some good info on. The whole mess got disappeared very quickly afterward.

I've contended several times in the past that very sensitive writings/reports are Erased off of the Net. The govboys have got much more capability for that than most believe. This might be a good chance to put it back in front of them, just like the OKC Bomb photos that had been removed or at least made extremely difficult to find.

"I had a 1995 article from the Salt Lake Tribune that discusses members of the Iraqi Republican guard being brought to the US by Clinton/Bush over the objections of some Congressmen and POW/MIA family organizations."

Maybe Wallaby can find some of this published info and get it back out front. If not, I'm hoping somebody can get some hardcopy to scan from a major Library Archive.

I heard this story on another thread. DOes anyone know why they were brought over to the US? It sure is a crazy thing to do. What was this about? To topple Saddam? It's a little hard to do from over here.

"Maybe they are the cadre for a Iraqi revolt."

Could be. But they've been "disappeared" for how many years now? They sure won't be infiltrators.

So what would their purpose be in this Country? Learning Democracy the CIA way?

Didn't we just try that with the Taliban? :-) Our Chosen Nation Builders!

Thanks for all that detail. It's starting to get pretty well defined now.

So we get thousands of immigrants, some likely Saddam Agents, all reporting of M.E. involvement in OKCBomb erased or denied, and the FBI right in the middle of it. And those duplicitous, devious SOBs blame the deaths on McV and Right Wingers.

You know, the FBI really does Hate this Nation. (a few exceptions noted)
