Not that Clarke has any credibility left, but since so many others, including Congressmen, want to reopen the OKC investigation, I thought this tidbit in Clarke's book was interesting:
On page 127 of Clarke's new book "Against All Enemies", Clarke notes that it's possible that al Qaida operatives in the Phillipes "taught Terry Nichols how to blow up the Oklahoma Federal Building." Intelligence places Nichols there on the same days as Ramzi Yousef, and "we do know that Nichols's bombs did not work before his Philippines stay and were deadly when he returned."
And yet, the Clinton administration focused exclusively on homegrown terrorists, and never talked publicly about this matter. Laurie Mylroie, formerly of the Clinton administration, and others, have since talked about the Iraqi connection to the OKC bombing frequently.

FBI was too busy with Christian child abusers in Waco and shooting mothers holding kids up in Idaho.
Those are the "real" security threats that Janet Reno and Clinton were concerned with.
Thank God that they dealt with those threats otherwise.... we'd have a bunch of kids living in a Waco makeshift shanty town with bible reading gun nuts or a isolationist, white guy living in back country of Idaho with his son, wife and infant.

There is no truth in them. They speak what the Father of Lies tells them to say. We pay them to do this.

There's some stuff in this article I haven't seen before, and I thought I knew most of what was to know about this case.
Still more evidence of FBI stonewalling and refusal to take evidence. I don't see how the new trial can bring any of this to light as long as these same FBI agents are still in the FBI, and many of them have been promoted for helping clinton and Reno cover up what really happened. They are hardly likely to testify if it will demonstrate their own involvement. They have a huge investment in continuing to cover this up.
Nothing short of a serious shakeup of the FBI by a really strong director like Rudy Giuliani can possibly fix this mess. And the CIA and BATF are known to be involved too.

The left became sanctimonious as soon as McVeigh was grabbed about how it wasn't Middle Easterners like the "reactionary right" blamed as soon as the bomb went off. They were trying to pin it on Rush Limbaugh and they were in a blue eyed homegrown terrorists euphoria, the left was ecstatic.
There is no way they were gonna eat crow...evidence be damned.

APRIL 19, 1993 - Federal agents attack Branch Davidians with military vehicles and gunfire. Fire breaks out and 74 die. Most of them are INNOCENT men, women, children and infants. Not one Federal agent is charged with wrongdoing or reprimanded.
APRIL 19, 1995 - Timothy and friends REVENGE BOMB the Federal building in OK City for what happened to the Branch Davidians in 1993. 162 die in blast.
Should we be surprised?

THis is scary, but does not add up. If President Bush has evidence that Iraqis were behind 9/11, he should put it out there. It would silence all reasonable doubts about the selection of Iraq as the primary WOT target.

Good article. I've always believed there was a Middle Eastern conspiracy for two reasons:
The methodology was Terrorist all the way. There is no other instance in which a "right wing" American group has engaged in an attack on US resources. They're generally isolationists. Clinton was getting clobbered in the polls, and George Stephanopolous stated that Oklahoma City was what got Clinton's reelection campaign going. Add to that the cover up of TWA 800, and you have a few more innocent lives lost on Clinton's watch than the 35 that Clarke claims. Does anyone else find the timing of this state trial curious?

If FR's can convince Nichols that he can really cause a "big Hit" on Gov't if he reveals his Phillipine contacts, it would show the ineptness of the Clinton administration

I don't ever remember anyone being executed as quickly as McVeigh was after his trial. I remember reading that he *wanted* to be executed quickly. Does anyone remember him really saying this? Does the guilty party get what they want? McVeigh should still be alive so he could have testified in Nichols trial at least.

Was Nichols' latest wife ever thoroughly investigated? I still remember the scene of her laughing as he entered the court for his trial.

The Weekly also called Swanton. He confirmed that Davis supplied Specters office with volumes and volumes of material before the FBI briefing. Magic Bullet Specter is part of the coverup, IMO.

I think McVeigh is another "Lee Harvey Oswald".
I also think that OKC is the reason Klinton won reelection.
