Bombshell new evidence ignored by the FBI suggests a link between the Oklahoma City bombing and the man who masterminded the first World Trade Center bombing and who later drew up the blueprint for the 9/11 attacks, Fox News Channel's Rita Cosby is set to report Sunday night.
"It's amazing to me that not more has been made of those phone records,” Oklahoma City attorney Michael Johnston tells Cosby, for her tenth anniversary special on the 1995 attack. The explosive new evidence shows that OKC bombing co-conspirator Terry Nichols repeatedly called a boarding house in [the Philippines'] Cebu City, an establishment that has been linked to al Qaida Twin Tower bomber Ramzi Yousef.
The same kind of ANFO fertilizer fuel bomb was used in that attack and the one two years later that destroyed the Alfred P. Murrah building.
Additional phone records dismissed by earlier investigations show that repeated calls were made from Terry Nichols' home to a place called Star Glad Lumber in the Philippines.
"Star Glad Lumber is operated by a man whose brother and cousin were both notorious terrorists, splinter groups of the Abu Sayyaf terror group in the Philippines,” Johnston tells Cosby.
After Yousef's Philippine bomb factory was uncovered in February 1995, Philippine police discovered three versions of the 9/11 plot on his laptop computer.
In one formulation, Yousef intended to plant bombs on 12 U.S. airliners flying over the Pacific, with each bomb to be detonated simultaneously.
A second variation involved bombing planes over U.S. territory.
A third version of the plans discovered on Yousef's computer envisioned hijacking multiple airliners in the U.S. and crashing them into national landmarks. The World Trade Center and Pentagon were mentioned specifically.
Investigators say that after his capture, Yousef's uncle, Khalid Sheik Mohammed, took the plans and presented them to Osama bin Laden, who decided in finance the third version.
Cosby's special report will also delve into claims made by Yousef's al Qaida partner in the Philippines, Abdul Hakim Murad - who was captured on the spot after Yousef fled.
On the morning of April 19, 1995 - the day of the OKC blast - Murad reportedly told a guard at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York City where he was being held that he and Yousef were behind the attack.
Reporting for Insight Magazine in 2002, investigative journalist Kenneth Timmerman detailed the episode:
"Lt. Philip Rojas, a prison guard, asked Murad what he thought [about the blast] and found his response so startling that he informed his superiors. They, in turn, called the FBI.
"Special Agents Francis J. Pellegrino and Brian G. Parr arrived later that morning, within hours after the Oklahoma City blast. 'Murad responded to the guard's question by stating that the Liberation Army was responsible for the bombing,' they reported in a witness report. 'A short time later, Murad passed a note to the guard, again claiming that the Liberation Army was responsible for the bombing in Oklahoma City.'"
Timmerman said that the "Liberation Army" was a fictitious organization used as a code by Yousef, and other al Qaida members "whenever they are making announcements" of responsibility for terrorist attacks.
Tune in to the Fox News Channel, Sunday, 9 p.m. ET, for Rita Cosby's special report: "The Oklahoma City Bombing: Unanswered Questions."
seriously...this has been out there a while.
Thers a lot of suspicious stuff the media just doesnt seem to care about
OH MY GIVE ME A BREAK....the 'toon wanted to implicate home grown terrorist ONLY...he was protecting muslim terrorist...it had nothing whatsoever to do with incompetence. It was much more devious than that...a method to his administrations' madness....was...take a guess?
After all, she was the 'co-President'.
Soldier of Fortune ran a story for a couple of issues several years ago saying there was some type of comspiracy and that McViegh and Nocols were not acting alone. Most people blew it off because it came from a "mercenary Magazine".
The Clinton administration decided that the only terrorists were Christians. They played up the fundamentalist Christian angle and swept everything else under the carpet.
It seems the way anything bad that happens in the world some Islamic group claims credit for it. You would think Al Qaida would claim credit for it to show us Americans how weak we are and how they can touch us at anytime; blah blah. But has anyone with Al Qaida claimed that? Hm, I would think OBL would.
I've read that Nichols made as many as 20 trips to the Philippines. For a guy who was so broke, that's a lot of airfare.
Well done.
John Doe #2=Jose Padilla BUMP!
Marife was his 2nd wife, Marife Torres.
Interestingly, his 1st wife Lana was also Philippina, and she later married someone by the surname Padilla.
Take a look at the photos in post #2, someone else named Padilla.
Probably just a coincidence. (I suppose someone would have found a connection by now between the 2 Padillas if there is one.)
This can't be right. The former Rapist-in-Chief told us this was part of the vast right-wing conspiracy under the leadership of a couple of evil, straight, white males.
And he'd never lie about such a thing.
Pull back that nappy head of hair on her head and you will find a 666!
Thanks.
Billdo and Shrillery are in deep cahoots with the puppet masters. Probably fancy themselves part of the puppet masters ruling elite.
The puppet masters are manipulating Al Qaeda big time. Very obviously, to some of us.
Therefore what, remains to be seen--other than the full court press to the evil global government.
There is no doubt in my mind that Sandy "stuffem in your pants" Burger destroyed documents that contained handwritten notes linking Al Qaeda to the 1st WTC bombing and the Murrah Bldg bombing.
Conspiritorial thinking.........YES......when the TOON is involved you bet.
BINGO.
Will even be interesting if Rita's program comes off as planned.
Not from Rita "my sources tell me" Cosby or News "quotes out of context" Max.
