James Patterson is still on the case. Good to learn that Dan Burton is too.

OKC bump. May the truth be told.

[Guillermo]

No, going after white men wearing camoflage is/was more important.

Nothing to see here, please move along, OK?

This story seems to be gaining legs. Rush, Glenn Beck and some others have run segments.

What was McVeigh's motivation, Ruby Ridge and Waco?

What would be the motivation of the putative co-conspirators, the middle-eastern looking dudes, that they hate America, and just think it's grand that they have this white guy who wants to do some demolition?

Is it just a marriage of convenience, and did McVeigh go along just to learn the technical aspects from the towelheads, or, is there some deeper reason for collaboration?

I have seen Patterson's articles over and over in the Star and have not known what to make of them.

Thank you for this post.

You better believe Clinton didn't want this pursued

[norton]

How times change, under Clinton/reno it was necessary that only right wing militia/christian conservative/racist Americans be investigated and suppressed....

After 9/11, after fair success in Afganistan it is reported that:

"deeply placed law enforcement contacts...confirmed his suspicions that the Department of Justice should reopen the case because he believes the Middle Eastern terrorist cell is still operational."
And:
"If it's true that Oklahoma bombing ties run all the way to Saddam Hussein, that would mean we go to war against Iraq."

I truly do believe that OKC was a conspiracy far beyond anything the fed's have allowed to be told. I firmly believe the fed's know damn good and well the what/who/how/why of the thing and have known from the first.
What I am NOT comfortable with is the convenience of suddenly 'discovering' that conspiracy just when a 'new' government wants a second shot at Saddam.

Do times change afterall?

PS: I also hope, out of a still active desire to believe our side can do it better, that all of this build up and talk of invasion is meant to bring Saddam down from within unless he really does do something deserving of a knock out punch.

Several of the witnesses directly link eight Middle Eastern men, most of whom are former Iraqi soldiers,…..

I wander if these “former Iraqi soldiers” are part of the group of Iraqi officers the our government relocated to the US at taxpayer’s expense? Wouldn’t surprise me at all to learn our own government is importing terrorists and providing operating capital. It is amazing that our country still exists with such fu***d up people governing it.

[uscit]

McVeigh is routinely brought up by the multiculturalist "civil rights" activists as a reason why we must not suspect foreigners more than assimilated Americans as posing a terrorism threat. It is an idiotic assertion even if Middle Easterners were not involved in the OKC bombing. Increasingly, however, it looks like they were. OKC always seemed to me to be too technically complicated a bombing to have been carried out exclusively by relatively inexperienced amateurs.

[TomGuy]

Right after the OKC explosion, the network news reporters/commentators were talking about the possibility of "foreign terrorists" and primarily Middle Eastern being the perps. About 15 to 20 minutes after the national nets began their live coverage, the reporters/commentators changed their "possibilities" to include, then probably was, a VRWC extremist. Soon any reference to ME or foreign were replaced with VRWC extremist. [I thought at the time that it seemed strange the way they shifted their reporting so quickly.] When McVeigh was caught it "confirmed" the revised reporting.

[It always seemed to me to be supicious that the OKC explosion, following soon soon after the WTC bombing, was directed toward an American extremist, even after reports of ME men that same morning on the net reports. I guess word came down from "higher up" that it was solely the work of VRWC extremists.]

The question that continues to bother me is.......

How did the reportedly large community of iraqis come to the US, and by who's authority.

[TXnMA]

PING! ...And please ping this to your OKC Bombing list (or did I just do that?...)

Thanks!

Maybe it's time to offer Nichols a plea bargain. If he tells all about the mid-east/OK connection and links it to Saddam, he can get out of jail and be deported to Iraq.

[Spyder]

The biggest question I have with regard to the conspiracy theories on OK City is the tendency of terrorist organizations to brag of their accomplishments. I haven't heard of one group that takes credit for the bombing, yet with something so "successful," one would think the group responsible would step forward.

How does staying quiet further their terroristic cause?

[doug from upland]

Come on, Dan. Get these bastards who covered it up. OKC was used by Sinkmaster to save his presidency and put the focus on so-called "right wing" nuts. All the loonies on the left had to side with him and would stick with him no matter what. He counted on that. He had to divide the nation to survive politically.

[AndyJackson]

What kind of disloyal American would talk about this stuff in public. Someone might get the idea that the FBI is incompetent and we can't have that leaking out.

I would venture to say that OKCSubmariner and his associates can share in the recognition for keeping this issue alive.
