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, terrorism expert who worked for the Clinton administration, and others, have since talked about the Iraqi connection to the OKC bombing frequently.

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 there were probably 10,000 other Americans in the Philippines on those same days. Isn't Nichole's wife is a Philippino? Was he just visiting the in-laws? And what about his "bombs" not working before? How many freaking bombs did he build?
I'd like to know where Clarke got this stuff. If he can link OKC to al Quida, he sould do it. But this stuff is sounding like black helocopter filler for a book.
