If OKC turns out to be the easiest-to-prove casus belli against Iraq, this may get public airing after all.

"If OKC turns out to be the easiest-to-prove casus belli against Iraq, this may get public airing after all."

The operative word is 'may.' Yes, if this attack were clearly linked to Iraq, AND the media covered it, AND the Republicans ran with it...the weather forecast for Baghdad could be tornadic winds of 1,800 kph, daytime highs of 3,000 degrees...

However, this would unravel a thread leading to the inner warp & woof of the Washington establishment. My guess is that the powers-that-be are furious with Burton & friends. They will undermine this rather than risk the exposure of a network within the alphabet agencies which is undoubtedly still in place.

I don't see any way they could do it after Ashcroft publically buried it. He was complicit in the coverup, and he didn't make that decision on his own. The die was cast then. Nothing of any significance will come out of Burton's committee.
