Note that the Iraqi escape described an anthrax facility in Iraq as well. Iraq is still a suspect in the anthrax attacks in the US and is capable of mounting anthrax and small pox attacks in the US through terrorist groups.
Saddam , Iraq and Iran sent repesentatives to two terror summits last year where Islamic Jihad, AlQaeda, Abu Nidal, Hezbollah and Hamas pledged global cooperation and coordination for terrorist strikes against the US and Israel.
It is ironic that KFORTV is the same station that reported on the Iraqi suspect Al Hussain Hussaini for the OKC bombing. KFORTV stopped its investigative reports on the OKC bombing after they were bought by the New York Times in 1996.
There is an Iraqi mafia with at least 10 Iraqis involved in crimes and terror in OKC according to a Federal Task force in OKC. Some Iraqis who served in Saddam's elite Republican Guard like Al Hussaini were brought to OKC by HW Bush after the Gulf War.
There is considerable evidence that Iraqis in OKC worked together with AlQaeda and Hamas terrorists in OKC to help McVeigh in the OKC bombing and to help the 9/11 pilots train in Norman OK flight schools and this was known to the FBI before the 9/11 attacks. Also the FBI knows that the first WTC attack and the 9/11 attacks on the WTC were planned at a terror conference in OKC in December 1992 sponsored by Hamas and filmed by former CNN reporter Steve Emerson in " Jihad in America".
The Hamas cell and the Iraqis are still being followed in OKC by the FBI rather than being arrested or deported. KFORTV knows of the Hamas and Iraqi operations but since being bought by the New York TImes, KFORTV has not reported on Hamas in OKC and their role in the WTC attacks and in the OKC bombing and the 9/11 attacks. They FBI has asked KFORTV and other stations in OKC not to report on the Hamas cell in OKC.
The FBI does not want to be held accountable for their failed policiy of deliberatley allowing known Abu Nidal, AlQaeda and Hamas terrorists to enter the US on student Visas so the FBI can track their operations for years. This FBI policy was described in detail before Congress in May 1995 and can be found in the COngressional Record and news sources who reported it.
This failed FBI policy led to the OKC bombing and to the 9/11 atttacks and was facilitated by an FBI double agent working directly for Bin Laden in the US. The double agent Ali Mohammed who set up AlQaeda cells still operational in the US (according to BOb Woodward of the Washington Post late last year), all while working for the FBI.
The FBI always claims they lose track of the terrorists after they let them roam in the US for years. This happened not only with Ali Mohammed but also with 9/11 pilot Mohammed Atta (also met with Iraqis in Europe) whose terror training and mission the FBI told the head of the Norman flight school about in 1999.
Assuming the FBI is telling the truth about being fooled by Ali Mohammed and Atta, then the FBI should consider a different policy, a new policy that rolls up the Hamas, Abu Nidal and AlQaeda cell members now before the FBI looses track of them again and again as they claim they have in the past.
The FBI has repeatedly said directly and through their sympathizers that FBI agents should not be held criminally accountable for any misconduct in their mishandling of terrroists cells in the US.
The attitude that the FBI and DOJ should not be held criminally accountable and are above the law should be changed by Congress. Until that attitude is changed, the FBI will continue to fail to adequately protect Americans from terrorism and more Americans will have their civil rights and freedoms violated by the FBI.
Super post and excellent analysis, OKCSub. I'm surprised they revealed his identity with photos of his family too. So, the skeptic in me is wary of buying this entire story hook, line and sinker.
