(Khalil) What were the means and methods used to persuade US soldiers to convert to Islam? (Philips) At first we prepared the soldiers mentally. A member of the team with experience in broadcasting and American psychology undertook that job. He called in 200-250 soldiers. Once he prepared them psychologically, I began giving the lectures and opened the floor for discussion on different issues. In my answers to their questions, I often linked the topics to the call for conversion to Islam.
Took the pages right out of our own psychological warfare playbooks.
Between the prisons and the military the fields are ripe with "lily-whites".
(Philips) I can say that we began our campaign to convert US soldiers to Islam after the end of the war in Kuwait and the withdrawal of the Iraqi forces.
Wasn't little "Timmah" McVeigh over there when all of this "psychological preparation" was taking place?

Good point.

Certainly McVeigh claimed empathy for the Iraqis. Though I think much of it was to claim that what he did was no worse than bombing Iraqi government buildings.

It was widely reported that McVeigh was an agnostic, saying that he will "improvise, adapt and overcome" if it turns out that there is a God and an afterlife.

As far as I know there is still the OKC bombing survivors' federal law suit and its "mountain" of evidence linking Iraq to the bombing.
