Michael Smerconish has been all over this for a several weeks now

I was in and out doing stuff today .. but think he had Senator Spector on today talking about this and he said he would have a meeting with this Reporter

Michael asked if he could sit in this conference and broadcast it .. I think Spector said something like I'll have to let you know ..

Ok, i have seen several links on this sensitive subject matter (that Iraq had something ...or maybe everything ....to do with the Oklahoma City building). I am not agreeing with the theory, but I will also not ridicule something that might very well be true! Hence i am as neutral to this as one can possibly be.

However i have a couple of questions i would like answered. Here they are:

1) If this is the case why did the Clinton Administration let it pass? I know it is easy for the answer to be 'Klingtoon was a traitor' but even if that is the case why? As in a real answer that makes sense instead of rhetoric! Clinton had major issues (and he still has), and if you consider the Chinese liasons he allowed stuff during his administration that are very un-American and even threatening to US national security! However did he(together with the upper echelons of his administration) invite Iraqi agents to wreak havoc on Americans? He may be a bad guy however i would like to know the logic to why he would allow such a thing. It seems a little too far off even for him.

2) Secondly (and possibly by far more important) when GW came into office, and this informationw as true, why did he not immediately do something about it? If there was verifiable proof that Iraq took part in the OKC bombing i think there would not even be talk of war ....it would be war instantaneous! And if GW had this information his call for taking care of Iraq would not have calls for 'international unity' or a strive to develop cohesion in the UN before an attack. He would strike Iraq. Furthermore his push for war would be made extremely easy if this info was to be given.

3) Thirdly why has it not made it to congress in the way befitting such info? Currently the most this stuff has done is become 'Urban Legend' talk in Washington, nothing more. I think Republicans would have amazing ire if this stuff was true and happened in Clinton's watch with his cooperation and also this information would probably ensure that the number of Democrats elected outside California are less than 5!!!! However this topic is basically not hot in Washington when if it was true it would be the powder keg of powder kegs and would probably shift American politics in a way unseen since the anti-Mason party! This would be huge!

Anyways i am not here to agree nor refute this information. However there are many places that make little sense, and others that just do not add up. However let me say if this was to turn out to be true it would be the biggest conspiracy since forever and a potent blow for the Democrats.

This issue needs to be clarified or it will become like the Kennedy assasination conspiracy with some swearing they saw an extra shooter behind a grassy knoll and documentaries on the History Channel on 'The Real Truth behind the OKC bombing.' In essence it would become mere bar talk. Hence they should make sure this information is released.... if it truly exists and is not just vestigial info some reporters will not let go off! After all to this day there are some who swear Kennedy was killed by the mob, or the govt, or the soviets (depending on who has the spookiest aspect that month); and that Roswell really happened. If nothing is released to prove Iraq had something to do with this then eventualiy this will become just another conspiracy theory. Hence the need to verify if it is true or not.

However there are several holes in this (the OKC connection) trhat make me feel a lot of stuff behind this theory is largely speculation and circumstancial stuff that could be applied to any rogue state. I thinkt hat there is some basis to this theiry, but the reason it has not been emphasised is due to the fcat there are no facts and the linkages to Iraq are at best nebulous! Ths the silence. Because if this was hard evidence the stance on Iraq would be totally different and the Democratic party would be in a lot of pain.

However what should be known is that as long as this info remains in the shadows it will always be nothing more than a conspiracy! That is how conspiracies are created ...basically people (including some with soldi credentials) who say something that is against orthodox belief and without hard evidence but merely personal accounts from eyewitnesses and investigation work. Again let me bring up the Kennedy thing: I have seen people with some credentials say it was a conspiracy, i have seen some 'expert' show 'evidence' from the Zippruder (sp?) that at least one shot had to come from a different angle, and there are dozens of eyewitnesses who saw the 'other shooters!' However this is considered to be nothing more than a conspiracy believed by crackpots and those who rage against the machine. Essentially this OKC-Iraqi thing will become like the Kennedy thing if it is not rectified. Or like another neo-conspiracy that has been making rounds, and that is the Downing of Flight 800! there are still reports it was a Stinger missile, and just like any good conspiracy there is all sorts of 'evidence' including apparent photos of a streaking missile and 'sworn testimony' that the FBI tampered the evidence to cover up stuff. However due to the lack of cohesive action and official investigation that says otherwise the Flight 800 has become just another crankpot conpsiracy.

With that said there is always the chance Kennedy was assasinated by men not a man, and that a stinger was used against an American flight! I do not believe in any of these conspiracies, but i am open to the fact that something might have happened that is not know (i.e that is a politically correct way for me to say they might be true). However i do not believe in them.

The OKC-Iraqi conspiracy will go the way of the Kennedy assasination, the Roswell incident, the Philadelphia experiment, Flight 800, and Sasquatch frolicking in the woods! Essentially disappear into the realm of anarchists and the like!

And this will happen whether Iraq was involved or not! As long as nothing is done about this it will become one of many conspiracies. Hence if there is anything to this it needs to be brought to the open as soon as possible. And if it is true then Saddam needs to be taken out with the full fury of the US military! And i am talking something 'sweet' not just a JDAM dropped on him. What do i think would be 'sweet?' If it was logistically possible (i seriously doubt though it would) imagine if Team Force Delta 'napped Saddam and brought him to the US? That would be a major accomplishment. however such an act is next to impossible since Saddam is a very efficient rat when it comes to hiding and using doubles. However a guy can wish ......
