Nichols responds to 'Third Terrorist' evidence-(media, gov't finally acknowledging OK City & terror)
WORLD NET DAILY.COM ^ | JUNE 30, 2005 | Staff Writer

After a meeting with convicted Oklahoma City bomber Terry Nichols, a U.S. congressman reaffirmed evidence of a Middle East connection to the 1995 attack.

Rep. Dana Rohrabacher, R-Calif. – who has publicly vowed to address unanswered questions about the bombing – went with a staff aid to the super-maximum security prison in Florence, Colo., where Nichols is serving 161 consecutive life sentences, according to the Northeast Intelligence Network, a private, counter-terrorist research and investigation group.

In his quizzing of Nichols, the congressman relied heavily on the investigative work of journalist Jayna Davis and her book, "The Third Terrorist: The Middle Eastern Connection to the Oklahoma City Bombing," published by WND Books.

Davis asserts Nichols and Timothy McVeigh were not the lone conspirators but were part of a greater scheme involving Islamic terrorists and at least one provable link to Iraq.

As WorldNetDaily reported, Rohrabacher has said he is "deeply disturbed" that the FBI did not follow up on affidavits Davis turned over to the bureau from 22 witnesses supporting evidence that Iraqi intelligence agents infiltrated the United States to recruit and assist McVeigh and Nichols.

Davis spoke with Rohrabacher after his visit with Nichols and gave a tape of her conversation to Northeast Intelligence Network Director Douglas Hagmann.

The congressman told Davis: "Yours is the only game in town that has any evidence."

Nichols acknowledged the existence of John Doe No. 2 – the alleged third terrorist – but stopped short of identifying him, claiming he "did not want to speculate."

However, according to Rohrabacher, Nichols said "he thought other people [beyond Nichols and Timothy McVeigh] were involved" in the Oklahoma City bombing.

"Timothy McVeigh on a number of occasions, had talked about Middle Easterners," Rohrabacher told Davis. "Terry didn't say anything that would dispel the theory, the central theory of your research, which is these people [witnesses featured in "The Third Terrorist"] actually saw Tim McVeigh and he was with Arabs, and these are the people that you tracked down."

Rohrabacher, chairman of the House Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations, said Nichols did not say anything that would undercut Davis' finding of a definitive Middle Eastern connection to the bombing.

The congressman said Nichols "didn't do anything that would in any way ... counter the witnesses that you have dug up and put on the record."

The witnesses provided sworn affidavits to Davis and Chicago-based attorney David Schippers, who served as chief investigative counsel to the House Judiciary Committee for the impeachment trial of former President Clinton.

Schippers also prosecuted a number of high-profile organized crime figures under U.S. Attorney General Robert Kennedy.

After conducting lengthy videotaped interviews with more than a dozen of Davis' confidential witnesses in May, Schippers stated: "Given the credibility of these witnesses, I could get an indictment with just one day of testimony before a grand jury."

Former CIA director James Woolsey also has found the witness statements accumulated by Davis to be credible, including many who attested to observing Middle Eastern nationals in the company of McVeigh and at the Murrah building at the time of the bombing.

Rohrabacher told Davis: "Your evidence remains the heaviest"

Despite the information he received from Nichols, the congressman told Davis he still was "in no hurry" to convene congressional hearings, but said he wanted to see more of her evidence.

As WND reported, on the 10th anniversary of the Oklahoma City bombing, in April, Rohrabacher asked in a House-floor speech why the FBI ignored strong evidence of a Middle East connection to the attack.

Rohrabacher said at the time that if the FBI does not provide satisfactory answers to his questions, he will call for congressional hearings.

Two years ago, on the eve of U.S. action in Iraq, Davis' reporting on the Oklahoma City bombing was vindicated when the U.S. 10th Circuit Court of Appeals dismissed a lawsuit filed against her after finding "defendants did not recklessly disregard the truth" in reporting on an Iraqi soldier's alleged involvement in the bombing.

You have the right idea. Politicians never move unless public pressure demands action. E-mails are silent irritants that can be deleted with the click of a mouse, but phone calls jamming a switchboard and pressure from an outraged electorate gets their attention.

You're thinking about Ruby Ridge and Randy Weaver, I think. That was in 1992, before OKC..

I want to reserve comment publicly about his current whereabouts and activities at the request of some "good guys" in law enforcemnt, but suffice to say, his movements warrant closer monitoring.

Are there any suspicious activities that indicated plans for another attack?

They could have never gotten the brisance they needed to cut what they did with what they were alleged to have had

Noticed that little discrepancy, did you...? '-)

(How about "localized brisance"...)

Thanks for posting.

The Clinton machine, including Hiliary, Reno, Gorelick, and the rest of that cult will be toast if this really rises to the surface. They've managed to keep it in the realm of "the vast right wing conspiracy."


I've been following Jayna for years, calling on our Senator, Specter, to follow up - he caved -, and other congressmen to investigate. Thank God for Dana Rohrabacher. He'd better watch his back.

Please contact my home state senators, Jim Inhofe and the newly-elected Tom Coburn, as well as Chairman Howard Coble of the House Judiciary Committee, Subcommittee on Crime, Terrorism and Homeland Security. Please call and write and forward any correspondence to me so I have proof of your requests.

Do any reporters we see on TV or in major columns have any interest in getting to the truth about OKC?

"That worked too. Voila.....9/11. Osama bin Laden was hired as the "hit man" by Saddam Hussein, because of Saddam's intense desire for revenge against America after the first Gulf War."

A point sadly missed often in the mass paper war for and against the war and follow up SASO in Iraq. Thanks for making that point. Saddam is a common criminal at best, and is driven by Arabic culture, and deep respect for Stalin and Hitler types. It is so easy to envision his deep desire to somehow get even with the USA. Operation Desert Storm certainly was a supreme humiliation to him.

No...I'm thinking about a story about some guys held up in Montana, similar to what Waco was...with a different result. I think they were called the Freeman. I'm going to look for it now since it peaks my interest.
