This thread is a mammoth work. Could you possibly do the same for Global Crossings?

honway, good sir...if you are going to insult somebody, it's basic good manners to ping them.

Thanks for the flag Black Jade. Very good information here, including Poohbah's member date. Since Poohbah was effective as a member of the _Jim, Fred25, Redwine, etc. crowd, the date is certainly coincidental,but interesting none the less.

Yeah, I didn't subscribe to every BS theory of "THE GUBMINT DID IT! THE GUBMINT DID IT!"

These guys spent many hours distracting people working on the OKC bombing, particularly the role people other than McVeigh and Nichols played in OKC. The goal of the work was to prevent another OKC by raising public awareness of the participants in the bombing still at large, in particular John Doe II, as well as others.

I firmly believe that other parties were involved and that they got away clean. I am somewhat less certain about specific identities of those parties. However, I did not subscribe to "multiple bomb" theories, "it was really an itty-bitty neutron bomb" theories, et cetera. That, of course, means that I'm nothing but a nasty ol' shill for the terrorists.

Now we know the same terrorist network responsible for 9-11 played a role in OKC.

We KNOW this for an absolute fact?

The only way you could honestly claim this as known fact is if you are part of said terrorist network and participated in planning or executing both actions. I'll take you at your word; an copy of your post is going to the FBI. G'day.

After the weekend's revelations about Enron, nobody believes this nonsense.
Ain't that a mouthful. Remember, like all the TV pundits say, they're using "standard accounting practices".
The buzzword of the day.

An interesting tidbit on GC...
Steven Green, Former U.S. Ambassador to Singapore, Joins Asia Global Crossing Board of Directors
In 1995, President Clinton appointed Ambassador Green to the President's Export Council where he served on the Executive Committee and chaired the Strategic Communications Committee.
That Samsonite association rings a bell, but I can't place it right now.

Global Crossing Ltd.
CASE INFORMATION

Summary: According to a Press Release dated July 27, 2001 the complaint alleges violations of Sections 11, 12(a)(2) and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder. The complaint further alleges that the Prospectus was materially false and misleading because it failed to disclose, among other things, that: (i) the Underwriter Defendants had solicited and received excessive and undisclosed commissions from certain investors in exchange for which the Underwriter Defendants allocated to those investors material portions of the restricted number of Global Crossing shares issued in connection with the Global Crossing IPO; and (ii) the Underwriter Defendants had entered into agreements with customers whereby the Underwriter Defendants agreed to allocate Global Crossing shares to those customers in the Global Crossing IPO in exchange for which the customers agreed to purchase additional Global Crossing shares in the aftermarket at pre-determined prices.
Them folks was already in trouble.

Some people never change. I will let you know if there is any result from your suggestion to the FBI. If they do call, I will refer them to the court order referenced below and inquire about the progress in aprehending the individual that was with McVeigh when the Ryder truck was rented.

---------------------------------------------------

Much of this evidence was uncovered by Jayna Davis and Brad Edwards of KFOR-TV in Oklahoma City. It may be best summarized by a court order filed on Nov. 17, 1999 for Case 97-1535-L in the U.S. District Court of Western Oklahoma.

Bush said Thursday that he was unaware of Enron's financial problems despite his political alliance with Lay...

Now it's become an "alliance." Next, a conspiracy? We report, we decide.

PB, No need to bother. They've undoubtedly got a copy already. Peace and love, George.

Poppycock. Green-toothed, pink-skinned Aryan Nation/Christian Identity traitors did it.

Evidence: White racists aided Timothy McVeigh

DJ2 is almost certainly Michael Brescia, a former member of the Aryan Republican Army (ARA) who is currently serving hard time for his role in numerous ARA bank robberies.

The 'alternate DJ2' is almost certainly Peter Langan, leader of the ARA and ordained minister in the Christian Identity Church, who is also serving hard time.

Mark Hamm has uncovered numerous links between Timothy McVeigh and the ARA.

It is you and your tendentious, mendacious ilk who are "distracting people working on the OKC bombing."
