OKLAHOMA CITY -- With the Sept. 11 anniversary upon us and President Bush talking about a "regime change" in Iraq, it's an apt time to look at two investigators who connect Baghdad to two notorious incidents of domestic terrorism. Jayna Davis, a former television reporter in Oklahoma City, believes an Iraqi cell was involved in the 1995 bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building here. Middle East expert Laurie Mylroie links Iraq to the first bombing of the World Trade Center in 1993, and has published a book on the subject.

On the other, Clinton undoubtedly has something up his sleeve to deter exposure of his greatest malfeasance. What a mess, eh? One would ask "why don't the republicans come out and tie this around Clinton's neck?" But if you think about it, who has ever tried to expose the Clintons' corruption and come out of it with their job, reputation, and finances intact? I can't think of any.

Great to see someone write about this is a decent publication. All my senses tell me it's true. If I may say to you, OKC Submariner.......you ought to be happy when you see this.
John Gibson (Bless his humorous, intelligent, coy self) is on for O'Reilly today and is all over this!!!!!! God almighty....the connection to the terror travesties is conclusive. The ONLY thing strange about this evidence is that is comes out NOW.
Where's that pristine bullet, (Arlen Sphincter-Mr. Scottish Law), on the gurney??????
Jayna Davis deserves a Pulitzer Prize....I hope that's the right award for a writer. She is fantastic, and so, so sincere and meticulous!!!!!
When will this story make See B.S. News or the New York Slimes? What a country. As long as Clinton could call OKC a crime rather than terrorism he didn't have to rock the boat and go to war. He could blame it on Rush.....and US!

"Seeing this is in the WSJ, I have to wonder how the mainstream press reacted to the Warren Commission's report on JFK's assassination."....
I just saw your post after writing post 22. You have a very good question. It took them years to ask a serious question.....only when it serves a group's intentions. Garrison was crucified on SeeB.S. I remember the smear job nvery well. I remember watching the smear job with my mother. She even knew then that it was BULL!....it was worse than what SeeB.S.'s 60 Minutes did to Chris Ruddy on Arkansas Vince. Look at what was done to Patrick Knowlton!
Gulf of Tonkin..........
It really is time for Americans to get to know how ignorant they are because of the power of the lamestream press. It is insidious and totally efective. As long as 90% of the people are kept in the dark, the powers that be don't really care about the hip 10%. Oh well.....no one really cares.....
I think I'll go grill about a half dozen Original HotDogs (the ones with the natural casings) over the charcoal! That will make me feel better. Onions, cheese, hot chilli...and OKC and Iraq.............what about Flight 800.....Flight 587?
Yoi, double yoi!

Lets dissect the consequences of this story once it breaks -- and it certainly appears to have legs.
- There would now exist a casus belli for Iraq. No further debate is needed.
- The cover-up, executed by the FBI, CIA and others, had to have someone in authority giving the orders. If Clinton gave the order to blame this on the militia movement for political purposes -- remember, he and his party had just gotten creamed in the congressional elections -- then were talking about treason. Hillary would have to immediately file for divorce to remain politically viable, and even then it might be too late.
- On the eve of this falls election, this revelation would put Democrats on the defensive and give Republicans an opportunity for 1994 all over again. Democrats would crawl over broken glass for Bill Clinton, and the revelation that their hero was a traitor would demoralize them.
- Congressional Democrats would have to explain why they gave Clinton a pass during impeachment. They would have to explain why no senator went to look at the evidence. Admitting that Clinton was blackmailing them would not work as an excuse. The party would be looking at a final rupture with the last Democratic patriots versus the traitors.
- The New York Times, which bought Jayna Davis TV station and tried to suppress her evidence, would have to explain why it participated in a treasonous cover-up. Times editors could find themselves on trial.
- The FBI, which lied, falsified evidence, intimidated witness and (perhaps) even killed people to maintain the over-up, would go down for the count. It would be broken up.
- The CIA would follow. Every scandal since the agency came into being in 1947 might well be aired.
- People would no longer trust their government to protect them or tell them the truth. The militia movement, maligned since 1995, would become legitimate again. People would arm.
If this story breaks -- and the Establishment Media will do everything in its power to put a lock on the story -- then everything changes. It would dwarf the Dreyfuss Affair that brought down the Third Republic in France.

There is one problem here with this situation. These people in Washington will protect their own. Dem, Pub, Marxist...They won't let this gain any momentum in congress. Like I said earlier, the people who are responsible for scuttling the investigations at the FBI know where ALL of the bodies are burried on Capital Hill and Pennsylvania Avenue. They might take on the director and maybe the deputy director, but the FBI as a going concern isn't going anywhere. As for the CIA, Jack Kennedy wanted to castrate that agency, and he wasn't exactly a fan of the FBI. One car ride around Dallas on a calm November day took care of that threat to their positions in Washington. I hate going all tin-foil here, but when his brother started making noise about getting to the bottom of the issue, he ended up dying from a rather similar type of wound. Given the Bush-41 once ran the CIA, I think it's safe to say that it will be safe come budget time.
Sad to say, asside from a couple of mentions on Fox News yesterday and a little talk radio exposure, this story has already been spiked. Hell, even on FR yesterday I think this was the longest thread on this story and it is now at a whopping 25 comments.
The truth about this would change everything. No one in Power would be able to claim they have clean hands. And that's why this is just fizzling out. I hope that I wrong about that. This would probably be this countries last, best hope of ever getting it's house back in order. Please correct me if you have seen any other stories today on this, but it looks none of the right people(or enough of the wrong people) seem to care.
