There They Go Again -- Justice Department Clamps Down on OU Suicide Bomber Facts
TownHall.com ^ | )ct 8, 2005 | Mark Tapscott

It was only hours after Joel Henry Hinrichs III blew himself up Oct. 1 near 84,000 football fans at the University of Oklahoma when federal officials claimed he was just a troubled young man with no links to terrorists.

But then yesterday the U.S. Department of Justice asked a federal court in Oklahoma City to seal the search warrant officials there used to get into the apartment Hinrichs’ shared with three or four students described by neighbors as “Arab-looking men.”

If Hinrichs acted alone and had no links to terrorists’ organizations or activities, why seal the search warrant? What did investigators find in Hinrichs’apartment that they don’t want the public to know?

[snip]

The most disturbing hole, though, is the letter intercepted by U.S. intelligence last May from Iraq terrorist mastermind Abu Musab al-Zarqawi to Osama bin Laden describing a “Great Ramadan Offensive.” The offensive was described as a series of spectacular attacks in the U.S. and elsewhere during Ramadan, which is in October. Was the OU stadium bombing intended as the first of those attacks?

If, last weekend, that bomb had killed a bunch of OK kids instead of just Hinrichs, and it came out in general news that it was a Muslim-originated bombing, what are the odds that we would have seen a bunch of Muslims seriously hurt, if not found hanging from light poles?

I'm wondering if that's what certain parties are actually trying to provoke, in order to start a more generalized worldwide conflict

MSM sources love sensational stories

Videos of bodies hitting the pavement were shown all over the world, except here. The MSM is, like Janet Reno, more afraid of American religious cults and right wing wacko's than terrorists. I agree with SauronOfMordor that a movement could easily spring up. However, it will not be a rebirth of the KKK, because that group has a lot of emotional ties to Arabs through Nazi sympathies.

Paging Mary Mapes. Paging Mary Mapes. Bloggers are at it again. Sharing news and generally fouling things up for the media.

Without these bloggers ignoring the accepted version of Joel Henry Hinrichs’ grisly death and forcing the mainstream media to take notice of an immensely important story, odds are good we would find out too late just how important a story it is.

"His plan was probably to go into the stadium and then detonate. He looks like an angel of God intervened and said, too many prayer warriors around here, and forced him to explode before he could kill other people."

I agree. I think God stirred what was left of his mind just enough to realize how bad it is to kill innocent people.

"that nutty Egyptian Muslim who went and shot up the El-Al terminal (prior to swiftly getting capped by El-Al security) did indeed have terrorist links!"

That evil website, Debka, published that he was a member of Islamic Jihad the day after the attack.

It bugs me that I have heard no talk show host (outside of Greg Knapp, a host on KLIF here in Dallas) talking about the OU bombing.

Are they afraid to be seen as "tinfoilers"? Are they afraid to even go so far as to say "that sure is strange..."?

Of course, maybe some of them have mentioned it and I just missed it.

"The wall of silence is continuing to crumble."

That's way too optimistic. I love the Washington Times, but they publish articles on all this sort of stuff. 99% of it never reaches the MSM.

Wow! What strained words:
There is no known current threat posed by any additional explosive materials. At this time, there is no known threat from any other person(s) related to this incident. At this time, there is no known link between Hinrichs and any terrorist or extremist organization(s) or activities.
There is no known current threat posed by any additional explosive materials.

I should hope not. The additional explosive materials are now either in government hands, destroyed, or unknown. (See fourth word of quoted statement.)

At this time, there is no known threat from any other person(s) related to this incident.

Why the qualifier, "At this time"? And what exactly do they mean by "known threats"?

At this time, there is no known link between Hinrichs and any terrorist or extremist organization(s) or activities.

At this time Hinrichs is dead. His activities are therefore rather limited.

Is Clinton still President?

Just had a huge fight with the father in law. What a freakin idiot. He just keeps on insisting government is good and we are all better off because of it. I say they lie and steal from us and he tells me I am paranoid.

I got the following from somebody whose opinions I trust. Make of it what you will (I do not make any assertions as to its accuracy), but it goes far in explaing why Boren is behaving as he is
The following links make me sick to send but the fact Boren is gay is true according to local officials here. One of them had me put out about blackmail to see if I got anything back. Here it is:

SAUDI SEX SLAVE SECRETS USED TO BLACKMAIL OUR LEADERS
http://www.rumormillnews.com/cgi-bin/archive.cgi?read=68197

The Saudis have had a "sex house" in Washington, D.C. for years. We first found out about it during the Gary Condit/Chandra Levy scandal. (Condit was born in Oklahoma). The Saudis invite politicians and other influential world leaders to this house. They video tape them having sex with men, women and children, and then use these tapes to control them.

It's is NOT known if the Saudis were blackmailing David Boren, but it IS known that Boren stepped down, with TWO years left in his term, after being OUTED in a nationwide gay publication.

The following is from Michael Phillip Wright's webpage:

Sexual Abuse in the Gay Closets of Power: Is David Boren Culpable?

Your post makes the best point on the thread. I hadn't thought of it and I agree with you entirely.

Some of you don't think so but Emails to the media do work.

Enough Email will at least cause them to think.

Personally I have watched about all I want to hear about NYC and subway bombers.

Something down deep tells me that this will be a bigger story as time goes by.

This kook didn't work alone.

The fact he was associated with a local mosque in Norman is enough for an indictment.

We know that they are lying.
The question is why?

CYA and political expediency, AKA, don't scare the sheep.
