Who you gonna trust? The FBI and MSM? .. or your own lying eyes? This MEDIA BLACKOUT is an insult to every thinking American.

Mr. Hinrichs' father told me his son was not the type to join radical causes and would not want to hurt anyone. But his son's chosen method – blowing himself up in a public place –

AFAIK, it's not even confirmed that the person blown up was Joel Hinrichs. Most likely it was, but there wasn't enough left to make a positive ID and last I heard they were awaiting DNA tests. My speculation is that the ID was made on the basis of Joel's student ID card found on or near the body. I base that on the initial photo released by the FBI, which clearly was the student ID photo, but was sort of wrinkled looking. Later the actual photo, probably from OU's electronic "original", was published.

Great column! So glad someone in a daily newspaper is finally looking at this incident. I wouldn't expect the NYT to cover it, but you'd think others would. This writer (Mark Davis) asked some great "what ifs" and I'm sure we could all add one or two more--just glad someone is putting them out there at all!

You know, what would serve these College left wing jerks justice, is if the very people they are protesting in favor of across this country, ended up killing them first in bombing attacks on these liberal college campuses.

Maybe then the great unwashed will finally get a clue that the Islamonazi's don't CARE how warm and fuzzy the libs are. They want them DEAD just as much as they want the rest of us DEAD.

You might think the story fizzled because there was, in fact, no death beyond the bomber. True enough, but I'd suggest that if a raid revealed some radical plan to bomb an abortion clinic anywhere in America, the suspects would be household names by nightfall without a single fuse lit.

How true is THAT!

Fly-over country, they vote Republican, the don't count unless something bad happens that can be blamed on Bush. No important Dim voters in a football stadium.

A fake NYC threat is much more interesting as it threatens Dim voters who are much much much more important than a bunch of football fans. You just have to understand who is important in modern America.

As for the authorities, that naturally want to down play this and not do the terrorists job and create fear and panic. So between the two, it is not surprising this story has been under played.

The media did not miss it. They are ignoring it. They only run with anything that will embarrish President Bush.
