While Ali was working to help the FBI, he moved Bin Laden from Sudan to AFGHANISTAN...
"see the Congressional record and statements by Congressman Henry B. Gonzales"
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA - funnier than Mad magazine!!!!!
"see the Congressional record and the documents put in the Congressional record by Congressman Henry B. Gonzales"
The Congressional Record of President Bush Senior's transfers of technology for weapons of mass destruction to Iraq has been posted on FR several times including last year.
I persoanlly saw Gonzales reading his documents and allegations into the COngressional Record-it was televised. Gonzales accusations and allegations about what Bush Senior did with weapons transfers to Iraq before the Gulf War are also factually and historically accurate.
Yes, ole Henry Gonzales, the entire US Congress, anyone paying attention and I, all know we gave/sold/transfered weapons to Iraq during the Iran/Iraq War. And we all know why. Just because you don't, is no reason to publish your ignorance for all to see. But then, judging from the quality of this piece, you are probably waaaaaaay past caring about your personal credibility.
"FBI agents were also told not to go INSIDE the Murrah building that morning even though the FBI had 3-4 agents inside the Murrah building everyday very punctually by 9 am and sometimes dropped off children at the day care center."
The distinction is critical because there is evidence that FBI agents were outside the Murrah building the morning of the bombing waiting along with bomb squad members in case anything went wrong (something did go wrong). FBI agents were seen at the scene moments after the bombing, way too soon for the FBI agents to have arrived from the FBI offices 8 miles away or from the golf tournament that FBI SAC Bob Ricks claims he was attending.
FBI agents wives told my wife that FBI agents were told not to go inside the Murrah building that day. The head of Federal Protective Services for the Murrah building, Tom E. Hunt, told me that the FBI had 3-4 agents inside the Murrah building at 9am sharp every day.
These are examples of more details that I left out of the summary to make it shorter and easier to grasp the big picture. I have provided these details in earlier articles I wrote and posted on FR in 2000 and 2001.
A book form rather than a summary would properly record more of these extensive details.
I will add a link to a thread that provides links to supporting media reports on the Melvin Lattimore/ Mujahid Menepta connection.

Black Muslim Seen with OKC Bombing John Does?
Of particular interest in the link are replies #26,27,28,29,31,33,44 for supporting news articles.
The motel owner said that Moussaoui and a man who appeared to be Marwan al-Shehhi -- who helped crash a jetliner into the south tower of the World Trade Center -- were friendly and said a few things, but Atta was clearly the leader. "He did most of the talking and seemed very serious," said the owner, adding, "I was standing face to face, about two feet away from Atta, and talked to the three of them for about 10 minutes. Atta asked if he could rent one of the other rooms at a weekly rate, and I told him no.
"I asked him what they were doing here in the area. And Atta told me they were going to flight school. I thought he meant [Federal Aviation Administration] training in Oklahoma City. But Atta told me no, they were taking flight training in Norman.
"I said I didn't understand why they wanted to rent one of my rooms, since we were about 28 miles from Norman and there are a lot of reasonably priced motels a lot closer. But he said they had heard good things about my place and wanted to stay there. I told them I was sorry, but we couldn't accommodate them. Atta finally said okay. Then they all thanked me for my time and left."
After the attacks, said the motel owner, he recognized his visitors in photos from television reports. "I was really stunned," he said. Then he decided to call the FBI hot line. The motel owner said he didn't hear right back from the FBI. In the interim, he also spoke to a former law-enforcement officer who was investigating reported sightings of Mujahid Abdulquaadir Menepta at the same motel during the mid-1990s. Menepta, reportedly a friend of Moussaoui's, was arrested 30 years ago in Colorado for aggravated robbery and served more than three years in prison.
After September 11, Menepta publicly defended Moussaoui, calling him a "scapegoat." The FBI arrested him as a material witness and subsequently charged Menepta with a federal gun violation. He pleaded guilty and in April 2002 was sentenced to 15 months in federal prison. He was never charged with any terrorism-related crime. But during the preliminary hearing on the gun charge, Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms Agent Jeffrey Whitney testified that a confidential source placed Menepta at a meeting of a radical Islamic group in St. Louis where he allegedly threatened to shoot any police officer who entered the mosque. Menepta's attorney challenged the credibility of this report in court.
A former desk clerk at the motel -- a different clerk from the one who purportedly dealt with Atta and Moussaoui -- told the Weekly that he remembered Menepta because in 1994 and 1995 -- prior to the Oklahoma City attack -- Menepta frequently visited the motel office. There, he bought coffee and talked for hours to this clerk.
The clerk and his wife, who both formerly worked at the motel, said they picked Menepta's picture out of a photo lineup prepared by a law-enforcement officer who had interviewed the motel owner.

But, then, anyone who dismisses Gonzales as "normally a rather comical figure to watch", really doesn't have the ability to comprehend what he sees.
And you can go ahead and respond to me directly. I try not to hurt snivlers cowering in the corner.
Thank you for the tremendous and timely supporting information and links you provided in your replies #11 and #12.
Integrating and providing this information is vital for ensuring the public sees the big picture and grasps the significance of what has been happening.
This truly requires and is receiving a team effort by concerned and dedicated Americans like yourself and others who love their country and their fellow citizens.
I salute you for your perseverance and dedication.
These had to have been the guys who planted the other explosives.
With Ashcroft as our AG, you have very solid reasons not to be optimistic at all.
