A very good synopsis from the Ok thread. Thanks to Peach..posting here for our records and discussion. [I second the GO Yankees tagline :)
1. Bomb blast shook the stadium. That is NOT a pipe bomb.
2. Cell phones and instant messaging did not work for some period of time. Reason unknown.
3. A Persian girl witnessed two middle eastern men running away immediately after the blast.
4. A second bomb was detonated by police.
5. PhiKapMom's son's friend was so close to the blast his face was red.
6. At least five people were injured, despite the press reporting that no one was injured.
I know that OKC has a huge presence of former Iraqi Republican Guard. The first President Bush made a deal with them if they would stand down during the First Gulf War, they would be relocated to the US.
The book The Third Terrorist by Jayna Davis is an absolute MUST read and she details just how much terrorist activity/planning has occurred in the area.
For instance, it is known that some of the 9/11 hijackers stayed at the same motel as the terrorists who worked with Nichols/McVeigh; the Cactus Motel, I think.
If Jayna Davis is still reporting for a local newspaper there, look for follow-up stories under her byline about this latest incident.

This fact alone concerns me. Can anyone say exactly how many of these soldiers we let in America?
