Cannistrao according to the FBI 302 said that the Saudi intell came in a call to Cannistrao the day of the OKC bombnng BUT several hours AFTER the bombing. Mike Johnson's version (if News MAx is correct in reporting on what Johnson said) says that Cannistrao was notified by Saudi intell BEFORE the OKC BOMBING. That is a huge and important difference in stories.
Now it is important to find out if the information came to Cannistraro/FBI from the Saudis before or after the OKC bombing.
Johnston says what Johnston had said on Judicial Watch radio was misreported by News Max.
Johston says he did NOT say the call came to Cannistraro hours BEFORE the bombing.
Johnston confirmed to me today that the first FBI 302 interview report with Cannistraro and FBI agent Kevin Foust about the story says that Cannistraro received the call from the Saudis in the afternoon of the bombing, which would make it after the bombing which occurred at 9:02 am.
However, it is still possible that Cannistrao could have received the call before the bombing if the FBI 302 is not accurate and a coverup started at that time. FBI 302's are notoriously unreliable because the FBI is known to falsify their 302 reports especially in the OKC bombing case. Jones book, "Other Unknown" talks about FBI 302 falsification and deliberate errors.
But even if the FBI 302 report with Cannistrao is accurate, the question remains how long did the Sauids know about the evidence linking Saddam Hussain and seven Pakistanis to the OKC bombing before they told anyone in US government?
If the Saudis called within hours after the bombing, it seems the Saudis likely must have known before the bombing.
If so why did the Saudis wait until after the bombing to call?
And how did the Saudis learn of the intelligence they called to give Cannistraro?
These are becoming important questions because some in the Saudi government (Islamic Whabbahists) has been backing ALQaeda , Hamas and other terrorists involved in 9/11 attacks?
