I know this is vanity but I want to hear more about this and back up what I say when I talk to others.
And this site is wonderful. I expect I'll set down and stay awhile.
Was Tim McVeigh
an agent of Iraq?
Top Defense officials think so, reports U.S. News
© 2001 WorldNetDaily.com
A few top Defense officials believe Timothy McVeigh, executed for his role in the bombing of the Oklahoma City federal building, was an Iraqi agent, reports U.S. News in the Oct. 29 issue.
The stunning news item is buried in the “Washington Whispers” column of the magazine under the byline of Paul Bedard.
“Some dismiss it as being akin to Elvis sightings, but a few top Defense officials think Oklahoma City bomber Tim McVeigh was an Iraqi agent,” Bedard writes. “The theory stems from a never-before-reported allegation that McVeigh had allegedly collected Iraqi telephone numbers. Why haven’t we heard this before about the case of the executed McVeigh? Conspiracy theorists in the Pentagon think it’s part of a cover-up.”
Those unnamed Defense Department officials are not alone.
Last week, House impeachment counsel David Schippers told WorldNetDaily Radio host Geoff Metcalf’s audience that he is convinced of a Mideast connection in the bombing. Schippers represents Jayna Davis, the former Oklahoma City television reporter who attempted to follow up the Mideast connection story until her bosses told her to let it go.
“I am thoroughly convinced that there was a dead-bang Middle Eastern connection in the Oklahoma City bombing,” said Schippers. “I think bin Laden was behind it. I think that there were Middle Eastern people on the scene running away.”
There would not necessarily be a contradiction between an Iraqi connection and a bin Laden connection. According to terror expert Yossef Bodansky, author of “Bin Laden: The Man Who Declared War on America,” bin Laden worked closely with Iraq for years.
This might help.
THE COURT: Would you please come to the lectern to make that statement.You may speak, Mr. McVeigh.
THE DEFENDANT: If the Court please, I wish to use the words of Justice Brandeis dissenting in Olmstead to speak for me. He wrote, "Our Government is the potent,the omnipresent teacher. For good or for ill, it teaches the whole people by its example."
I only read a small excerpt about it and never got around to doing and due diligence.
FWIW.
I believe it was the beginning of the steep phase of American decline when the idea took hold that "the only stupid question is the one that is not asked."
It really is no joke that the country is now full of morons ("truthers") asking so many absurd and subversive questions that we have a generation growing up and taking seriously Michael Moore, Oliver Stone, Rosie O'Donnell. And can you believe...these people are allowed to vote when they grow up???
Check everything by Jayna Davis and i’ll go gather some of the old stuff up for you. I’ll see if I can find KFI/John and Ken on it as well.

Don’t have time to read all the posts right now, but I can see that Jayna Davis’s name has already been mentioned.
Did anyone mention her website?:

"Yousef and Khalid Sheik Muhammad had gone there to help create an al Qaeda spinoff, a Philippine affiliate chapter, named after a hero of the Afghan war against the Soviets, Abu Sayaff. Could the Al Qaeda explosives expert have been introduced to the angry American who proclaimed his hatred for the U.S. government? We do not know, despite some FBI investigation. We do know that Nichols' bombs did not work before his Philippine stay and were deadly when he returned. We also know that Nichols continued to call Cebu long after his wife returned to the United States. The final coincidence is that several al Qaeda operatives had attended a radical Islamic conference a few years earlier in, of all places, Oklahoma City."

The truth is out there. Happy hunting.

I'll check around for copies of the Report, and if all else fails, I'll give (recently re-elected) OK Congressman Charles Key a call to see if there are any copies still available.
I almost forgot another fact that will knock your socks off.

I saved links to many of the interesting OKC threads in my profile page on FR.
One detail that I find most interesting is that there were between 3 and 15 video cameras that captured the blast and the time leading up to it. The FBI has/had the videos, but the videos have not seen the light of day since the FBI got them. They were not turned over as part of discovery to the McVeigh defence team (court TV thread in my links).
