Holy-mackeral. Your posts are giving me the vapors. Yesterday morning during a press briefing at the disaster scene in West, Texas, Waco Police Sgt. William Swanton, who was the media contact man at the time, called on some character with a question who had a very heavy foreign accent and was barely understandable - Swanton apologized in advance and asked the fellow to verify that the question was "Where any Turkish nationals involved in the explosion" - the guy agreed in the affirmative that it was the question - Swanton just stopped and held his gaze for a moment, then answered in the negative. I was like "what the ...??" That little incident stuck in my mind, hard. It was exactly at 8:31AM when that occurred, but unfortunately never got a look at the guy that asked the question - he was well off-camera. I don't know what to think about that. What was some foreigner doing at a rural farming community asking a whacked question like that??? Doesn't compute. Need to find raw footage of that particular press conference.
