McVeigh an Iraqi Agent?
U.S. News & World Report's Washington Whispers column is always worth reading, and the Oct. 29 issue is no exception.
"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," says the magazine.
"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."
Somehow, it just doesn't work for me.
