TWA 800: Jim Kallstrom’s Road to Redemption
American Thinker ^ | June 20, 2016 | Jack Cashill

Posted on 06/20/2016 11:33:04 AM PDT by Kaslin

When I see former FBI New York honcho Jim Kallstrom appear on Fox News, I see a tortured soul. As boldly honest as he has been on the subject of Islamic terrorism, this once honorable man has lived a lie for the last twenty years on the subject of TWA Flight 800. Others have lived the lie as well, but none so personally.

It was Kallstrom who spoke to the press, Kallstrom who testified at congressional hearings, Kallstrom who consoled the families of the 230 dead with the assurance he would leave “no stone unturned” in his pursuit of the truth.

When Kallstrom arrived on the scene in Long Island the day after the crash in July 1996, the truth was indeed what he was seeking. By July 30, 1996 -- less than two weeks after the 747 blew up -- FBI agents had interviewed 144 “excellent” witnesses to a missile strike. As revealed in a recently unearthed CIA memo, the evidence was “overwhelming” and the witness testimony “too consistent” for the cause of the plane’s destruction to be anything other than a missile.

1996 being an election year, however a missile strike on an American airliner involved far too much political risk for the Clinton White House. Working through the CIA, its operatives took effective control of the investigation. For reasons only he knows, Kallstrom knuckled under.

This is not any different than the DOJ being ordered by that arrogant pos occupant of 1600 Pennsylvania Ave to scrub the FBI transcript of that Muslim terrorist in Orlando

Misleading Title (IMHO).

Kallstrom is not going to redeem himself with any sort of TWA800 confession - there is nothing in the article to indicate that he is planning on doing so. And anything else he might do won’t have 1% of the impact of such a confession.

Redemption = Confession. Period.

Not going to happen. (IMHO).

There was a rumor that it was a US sub that shot down the TWA 800. There were arguments that how could an entire ship keep their mouths shut. No problem if it were a Soviet sub.

Threat of death to him and his family, I would suspect.

So Kallstrom was in the FBI. He knew something, but was forced to lie. And clinton was not impeached for this? clinton is not in jail?

Kallstrom on the phone with Megan and with Tom Stalcup. Start at 9:44.

If Kallstrom is somehow a less abrasive, nasty person now, it’s happened in the past 3 years, because he shows every bit of his haughtiness during that segment.

The only sympathy I have for him is that he was a stooge for Gorelick, who I consider one of the most evil people alive now.

Then they can take another look at the people McVeigh was in bed with. They buried that one real quick.

Come to think of it, Gorelick was involved in OKC too.

While in the realm of possibility, I don’t think it was a friendly fire incident.

There were too many Muslim terrorists with too many odd weapons in their possession after all of the Middle East conflicts around that time. Unlike Reagan, Clinton was shown to be weak, so the motivation was there.

Also, I believe that KSM or a compatriot like Ramzi Yousef had read “The Turner Diaries” and were using it as a terrorism template. The book describes several terrorist attacks that are eerily close to actual attacks on Americans by Muslims, including crashing a plane into the Pentagon as the final act.

The true story is yet another example that the Clinton Crime Syndicate will stop at nothing to take and retain power. There will be fraud perpetrated by them to an unprecedented degree come November.

This is utter bullcrap. Same as demolition charges in the World Trade Center. Its a fantasy to say a USN missile could be fired from a ship and kept secret.

The FBI took over from NTSB because everyone was SURE it HAD to be an attack because it was in conjunction with the Atlanta Olympics. So they rushed in just like they did with Richard Jewell.

I want someone to explain to me how a USN missile was fired from a ship, and the crew didn’t know, or kept it secret. Fantasy crap like this is why people think conservatism is stupid.

“I will never forgive Kallstrom.” Nor will I. But he has been forgiven by one Mr. Limbaugh who has gone out of his way to promote his “good friend.”

At minimum, Kallstrom needs to leave, give all his money to charity and never return to the United States.

This is what I notice. 144 witnesses and yet the press will ignore them to promote the Clinton version of events.

This has happened again and again where clintonists and obamists are involved. The press, the party members, voters, even military brass, will ignore what is knowable truth in order to promote the official version of events. You cannot trust government at all, nor can you trust the press. Too many people are corruptible financially, too many people are blackmailable, and too many people are simply corrupt in soul and spirit and cannot discern truth when it stares them right in the face.

When people persist in electing corrupt people into high office, at some point you have to stop blaming the government and lay the blame squarely on a corrupted people. As some have said, we can survive an Obama. We can’t survive the half of America that thinks he’s the cat’s meow. The same goes double for the Clintons.

Sorry but I have no use for Kallstrom. He has no charachter and he put his pension and promotions above his duty in the TWA investigation. Interesting that the devil of the Democrats, Jamie Gorelick, was the one to put the pressure on him to bend to the will of the Clintons and sanitize the terrorism that brought it down.

Another round of Whack-A-Mole with the conspiracy people. July 17th can’t get here soon enough.

...

My understanding is the investigations were initially in parallel. The NTSB put out the official report with some of the FBI and CIA findings included.
