McVeigh's Ghost - Top Pentagon Officials Say Iraq Involved in OKC Bombing
US News & World Report/ Fox & Friends ^ | October 23, 2001 | Paul Bedard

Some dismiss it as being akin to Elvis sightings, but a few top Defense officials think Oklahoma City bomber Tim McVeigh was an Iraqi agent. The theory stems from a never-before-reported allegation that McVeigh had allegedly collected Iraqi telephone numbers. Why haven't we heard this before about the case of the executed McVeigh? Conspiracy theorists in the Pentagon think it's part of a coverup.

Clinton's desire to be seen as the 'great peacemaker between Jews and Arabs' is the motivation that I've been considering for a while now. You won't get any laughter from me for pointing it out. It seems perfectly plausible since Clinton has proven himself to be totally amoral and power hungry.

Glad to see that I'm not the only one who has thought of this, Zack.

If that is the case, then the Clinton administration officials need to be persecuted for treason, and involuntary manslughter, for allowing the terrorist to plan and execute the WTC action. We need names.

"What was the reasoning behind the decision to allow Iraqi military personnel entry into the U.S. What was the purpose or benefit to our national interest to allow these folks entry?"

Like some are busy NOT answering and ignoring one name; Both Bush AND Clinton apparently made that decision. I don't know that there was any reason, other than Maybe Humanitarian, given for it.

I don't remember, but heard somebody say that we rounded up all the Iranian students that were here on student visas during the hostage crisis, and shipped them home.

I think it was John Gibson on Fox yesterday, who said the same thing. (I had not remembered this at all.) Why is it NOT happening now???

Some dismiss it as being akin to Elvis sightings,

... yeah, and I would COMPLETELY dismiss McVeigh's book as being the product of a hypnotized stooge who was fed palatable stories by his 'handlers' (while in prison) to relate to those who actually wrote his book ...

Not!

That reminds me - have ANY of you notorious tin-foilers written to or, heaven forbid, TALKED to Michael Fortier (who is ALIVE) and gotten his feed back on his take of "foreign gov't involvement"?

I'll GLADLY drop dead of a heart attack (and STOP hounding you people) if you have ...

Where is Michael Rivero, he should have been all over this by now.

He was banned about a month ago, I understand. Don't know the details myself.

You aren't the only one. There have been plenty of people who've been saying it, who've had to put up with personal attacks, the usual "conspiracist" ridicule, the oft-repeated "tinfoil" smear. And you know what? They've been right all along.

They've been so right, in fact, that they absolutely shamed every major news organization in the country. And as for the naysayers, who are so keen to promulgate their superior intellect and their wisdom, they've turned out to be nothing more than dupes and nitwits.

I will say it again: The "conspiracists" have displayed more intelligence and resourcefulness than the entire American news media and the naysayers combined.

I am not sure what the answer is about the Republicans going along with the Clinton McVeigh theory, except that it was all done so quickly, within days or at least first weeks, that Clinton was on the tv saying that all the speculation about a mid-east connection was completely unfounded, that the bombing appeared to be the work of a "right wing extremist". And you have to admit that McVeigh did fit that description, but that doesn't mean that he wasn't manipulated by the mid-eastern terrorists.

Wallaby deserves the actual credit for those articles... I merely cut and pasted them from the AKAL threads.

I remember news reports that said witnesses had seen McVeigh and/or Nichols in the company of a third man--whom the witnesses described as dark skinned.

I seem to remember that this dark-skinned fella was never identified, and that the authorities eventually ascribed such sightings to overactive imaginations on the part of witnesses.

Anyone else remember broadcast reports of a dark-skinned accomplice?

Someone with more time than I have, might want to do a websearch on this.

Take a pill or something. You're ranting to the wrong poster. That's not my quote.

Have you talked to Clinton's FBI agents to get their take on how to convince people of the veracity of something based upon a total lack of physical evidence?

No, not yet? I'll gladly drop dead if you do.

Why wasn't this brought out in the impeachment instead of "all sex all the time"? Starr should be in handcuffs with Clinton and Reno.

Good evening, my fellow Americans.

Over the past few months, in an increasingly intensive investigation, this administration has uncovered conclusive proof that the bombing of the Murrah Federal Building in April, 1995, which took the lives of over 200 Americans, was not the work of Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols operating alone.

It is clear now that they were assisted by agents of the Iraqi regime of Saddam Hussein and by the al-Qaeda terrorist network. As you know, the remains of the Osama bin Laden and seven of his top lieutenants, recovered from their bunker in Afghanistan, were identified through dental records two months ago. Our armed forces, together with those of the Northern Alliance and the Pashtun Resistance, continue to mop up the last remnants of Taliban forces on the ground in Afghanistan. They make us all very proud. Other efforts against the remaining structure of al-Qaeda continue throughout the world.

However, following the discovery of Iraqi involvement in last year's anthrax attacks upon members of Congress, the media, and our postal system, and together with the disturbing new revelations I am sharing with you tonight, further action in the war on terrorism is clearly necessary.

About 30 minutes ago, the last of our aircraft left Iraqi airspace, after launching a massive attack against the Iraqi military infrastructure and command system, including Saddam Hussein's personal bunker. Iraqi facilities for the production of weapons of mass destruction were particularly targeted. Some of these attacks involved the use of elements of our nuclear arsenal. These attacks will continue over the next several days.

I am sorry to have to inform you that a number of members of the previous administration, including President Clinton, were actively involved in covering up Iraqi involvement in the Murrah Building bombing, including cooperating directly with Iraqi agents in the US. According to law, this constitutes conspiracy to obstruct justice and also makes them accessories after the fact in the commission of an act of terrorism.

Accordingly, I have directed agents of the FBI to take President Clinton and his co-conspirators under arrest, pending indictment. These co-conspirators include Senator Hillary Clinton, former Attorney General Janet Reno, and former FBI director Louis Freeh.

I know that you stand tonight together with our brave fighting men and women throughout the world, as they take this battle to our enemies.

God bless you, and God bless America. Good night.
