Student Arrested at Airport Free to Resume Classes
The Norman Transcript
http://www.airportbusiness.com/article/article.jsp?id=3145&siteSection=5

NORMAN, Okla. (AP) -- A University of Oklahoma student accused of transporting an explosive device into Will Rogers World Airport last week is free to begin attending classes when the fall semester starts Monday.

Charles A. Dreyling Jr., 24, who is free on $10,000 bail, remains a student at the university, OU spokeswoman Catherine Bishop said Tuesday.

He is one semester away from completing an aviation management degree, his lawyer Kent Eldridge said...[Snip]

...Former Oklahoma City Mayor Kirk Humphreys (R), who is Dreyling's landlord and his longtime friend, said Dreyling had created a ''glorified firecracker'' and then forgotten that it was in his luggage...[snip]

...Dreyling was arrested at a security checkpoint on Aug. 10 after a Transportation Security Administration employee noticed something suspicious in his carryon luggage as it went through an X-ray machine.

The device was described in an FBI affidavit as a CARBON DIOXIDE cartridge filled with gunpowder that could be detonated when connected to a power source such as the batteries Dreyling had in his electric razor and in his cell phone, which were also in his carryon bag...[Snip]

...U.S. Department of Homeland Security documents obtained by The Norman Transcript newspaper indicate federal agents who searched Dreyling's residence found gunpowder, carbon dioxide cartridges and wires as well as a computer with a video of detonation of a device similar to the one transported into the airport....[snip]



Former Republican mayor with political asperations of OK Gov, or US congress, defends man caught taking a deadly pipe bomb SIMILAR TO THE LONDON BOMBERS' explosives onto a commercial airline. Kirk Humphreys calls it a "glorified firecracker."

That's a fascinating quote from the former mayor of OK City. If you think that is weird, something is very fishy about the news media coverage of the OU "suicide bomber" mentioned in the news recently.


1) Original OU suicide bomber story: Oct 2, 2005, 6:42 am

NORMAN, Okla. (AP) One person was killed in an explosion in a traffic circle about 100 yards from a packed football stadium at the University of Oklahoma on Saturday night in what authorities were calling a suicide....[snip]

...A police bomb squad detonated explosives found at the site of the blast. The area near the stadium was searched by bomb dogs.

2) On the subject of radio coverage for this odd incident: After a day of brewing on the blogosphere the #1 talkradio program in Tulsa, 740 KRMG decided to give a fuller investigation Sunday and Monday of this week. How? KRMG decided to give coverage to the father and sister of the suicide bomber NOT THE ACTUAL BOMBING or police investigations in his residence.

3) Father Of Suicide-Bombing Victim Denies His Son Had An
Agenda

"(Norman, OK) -- The University of Oklahoma engineering student who blew himself up didn't have a political agenda and wasn't trying to hurt anyone else. Joel Hinrichs (HEIN-ricks) Jr. says his son,
Joel Hinrichs the Third, was "checking out" as he put it. Hinrichs says he told the FBI his son was disengaged from politics and says agents told him they DID NOT find a suicide note. Hinrichs used HYDROGEN PEROXIDE to construct the bomb and had the device
strapped to his body when he detonated it. He was sitting on a bench outside the botany-microbiology building, which is about 100 yards from OU's Memorial Stadium. Thousands of people heard and even felt the blast during the second quarter of Saturday night's
game. "

4) Monday’s broadcast on 740 KRMG also quoted the bomber's sister: "It must have been an experiment gone wrong...it must have been an accident."

5) Saturday night and Sunday morning broadcasts quoted the father differently: "My son was depressed. He took a year off from college
due to depression. I can't imagine he WAS INVOLVED IN SOMETHING MORE..."



So, the MSM and government's line is that it was a suicide by a depressed boy. Or it was an experiment outside a crowded stadium WITH SECONDARY EXPLOSIVES READY TO BLOW UP--an experiment that went wrong. Or it was just an experiment without secondary explosives. But it's not terrorism. It's not linked to terrorism. Even though it has all the hallmarks of a classic AQ terror plot.

Also there was no suicide note but Feds ruled it a suicide. There were other bombs confiscated and detonated. Then the Feds said the bombs didn't exist rather the bomb squad let off an explosion to see if there were bombs. Also the bomber looked like he came from Osama High School but his muslim features were never reported except in a file picture. The bomber was said to have depression and anti-social behavior. But then he was quickly morphed into a quiet but friendly scientist that tinkered until he accidently died. Some sources on the internet say he frequented a mosque. The sources indicate material from the bomber's residence were bomb-making in origin and literature was pro-muslim. But how can we trust the internet sources?

The bomb found on this guy was a simple bomb-similar to the pipe bomb found on the guy arrested at OK City airport, as well as THE TERRORIST IN LONDON. But the MSM now tells us the bomber was a loner with no terror connections. We are told there is no connection even though there seems to be a strong connection.

We are also led to believe the suicide bomb was NOT a botched terrorist attack during a televised sports game which the HSA warned would be prime target after 9-11. It was not a botched terror attack performed on the Jewish Sabbath right before Rosh Hoshana. And there is no connection between this bomber and the fact that he lived in a problematic area of the USA known for harboring 9-11 terrorist ringleaders. No connections whatsoever.

So I say let's kill the story.

Not to mention this occured 10 years to the day(October 1st,1995) that Sheik Omar Abdel-Rahman and 9 others were convicted for their involvement in a conspiracy to plant bombs at New York landmarks like the United Nations building and FBI offices. These people were also accused (but not convicted) of being involved with the 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center.

One of these was found in my Brother-in-Law's apartment after he died from an epileptic seizure, made the front page of the local paper. They called the bomb squad and everything. He was a pay telephone repairman and had found it on a telephone he was repairing. He took it to his boss and his boss told him he could keep it. He was a just a packrat, not a terrorist, but you couldn't tell it by the headlines, we thought it was funny.

So was Charles Bishop/Bishra (the pimple cream made him fly into that bank, remember?).

Unfortunately his suicide note (which was released a month later, due to a threat he made against the Super Bowl) praised Bin Laden and cast no doubt as to why he did what he did.

Will we see this man's suicide note? Or is it "private" like the interview Nick Berg conducted with Michael Moore's second unit film crew?

"Hinrichs used HYDROGEN PEROXIDE to construct the bomb and had the device

Maybe we're just been too suspicious. Which of us has not spent a beautiful fall Saturday afternoon sitting outside a college football stadium with a hydrogen peroxide bomb attached to our bodies? Why do people always assume the worst?
