What I have been missing in these theories is why foreign terrorists would participate in the OKC and TWA800 attacks but then fail to claim credit and threaten more of the same or worse. I haven't been following the discussions on these theories in any detail, so I may have missed the explanation. Can you fill me in on the thinking on that question?

That has been my question as well, but I think the answer may be that (according to this conspiracy theory) that it was Iraq and not a terrorist group that were in on OKC and TWA800. A terrorist group like AQ is proud to claim responsibility (like 9/11) since they can hide in caves. A country like Iraq certainly wouldn't want to take public credit. Saddam would have been asking for a nuke down his smokestack. Clinton wanted re-election, so there was a tacit agreement, perhaps, between Clinton and Saddam? So then Bush and company come into office. Shortly after, Bush learns the truth, and, yes, starts planning to take out Saddam out. Saddam then welcomes the 9/11 attack by AQ thinking the heat is off him and on to OBL. But only for so long.

This might explain why Bush was reluctant to have a 9/11 commission or testify or have Rice testify before it. Perhaps he was afraid the trail would go back to the OKC/TWA/Iraq connection. As someone else suggested, he may be trying to protect the Presidency, not Clinton.

I have always felt that there was MORE to going into Iraq than we were being told. I thought once we got in there we'd find out what that was. I thought maybe we were protecting sources or not tipping our hand as to what all we knew. So far the other shoe hasn't dropped, so I have been still thinking that there has to be something more to it than we've seen thus far. Yes, it's a conspiracy theory, but it's a lot more likely than the democrat lunatic theories.

I've long thought this was what the Dems' absolute hysteria in Florida, 2000, was all about. They simply could NOT let Bush win -- there was too much dirt which could be uncovered if they weren't in control.
