Specter: No Response From Ashcroft --Justice Mum on Iraq-McVeigh Link

He's saving it for Nov. 3. Nov. 3 headline topic-line: Dems implicated in OKC coverup to blame Republicans and boost Clinton for the '96 election.

[Neanderthal]

Don't worry. Specter is on this and he's the guy that solved the JFK assassination.

[AmericaUnited]

"a group of Arab men with links to Iraqi intelligence, Palestinian extremists and possibly al-Qaida, used McVeigh and Nichols as front men to blow up" the Murrah building.

There has never never been any doubt in my mind that this is 100% true!

[ATOMIC_PUNK]

Don't worry. Specter is on this and he's the guy that solved the JFK assassination.

I thought Kevin Costner did that?

[2timothy3.16]

I am glad to see that AG Ashcroft is using discretion in giving sensitive information to unreliable individuals.

[William McKinley]

Question for Mr. Specter:

If you are so convinced that Iraq was involved in OKC, why did you vote no to the resolution of force against Iraq?

[RJCogburn]

Attorney General John Ashcroft had failed to respond to an Oct. 4 letter seeking their input on the allegation.

By his deeds, Ashcroft has demonstrated he is not at all interested in pursuing corruption in government....Chinagate, Boston FBI, lynx fur, BIA corruption.....

[glorygirl]

Specter voted yes on the resolution to use force against Iraq. He voted "no" on the measure to stop discussion of the subject before the vote, which would support the inference there were more issues to be discussed.

[William McKinley]

I stand corrected. I could have sworn I had read him as a no vote.

[glorygirl]

Easy to misunderstand. The night it happened there was some confusion on the threads as well, because of the earlier vote.

[FreePaul]

Probably too many people still in the FBI and Justice Department who were involved in the cover up. There will be tremendous resistance to any public discussion about foreign involvement in the OC bombing. The cover up had to have a lot of support within the government agencies.

[thinden]

Specifically, Burton has sent a subpoena to the secretary of the Navy seeking video and still camera shots of the Oklahoma City federal building on the day of the bombing, the Indianapolis Star newspaper reported Oct. 12.

"He has reason to suspect that the Office of Naval Intelligence or the Defense Intelligence Agency may have in their archives a photograph of John Doe 2 and convicted bomber Timothy McVeigh getting out of the Ryder truck before it blew up outside of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building," the paper said.

interesting that after more than 7 years, ONI all of a sudden surfaces in the murrah investigation. does anyone remember the navy being involved in any manner after the bombing?

[taxed2death]

I could be mistaken, but I'm sure a fellow Freeper might be able to do some digging and sourse the article dealing with the US navy, building a 5 story structure to common commercial building codes (not the more strict codes for Federal buildings), filling up a truck with MORE ANFO than T.M. was supposed to have used and detonate it.

I did blow out the windows and do some structural damage. The building, constructed to a lesser code, meaning it was not as strong, was left standing.

The only reason I remember this was at the time, I thought it was strange that the Navy would be doing this kind of testing.

Could Senator Specter be cosmically forgiven for the "Magic Bullet Theory" tm, if he were to become key in unlocking an OKC-Iraq connection?

Considering Iraq is an external affair, while JFK hopefully was an internal affair, it would pretty much wipe the slate clean in my book.

[Fred Mertz]

Interesting. Thanks for the flag.

[thinden]

If you are so convinced that Iraq was involved in OKC...

spectre may have reservations eventhough a significant number of eye witnesses to the murrah bombing document ME/Iraqi involvement.

exactly who they were working for remains unanswered.

[Area51]

Never! Before the Kennedy coverup, he Was Ira Einhart's(sp?)attoney that got him out on bail, so he could skip country for 20+ years for beating his girlfriend to death and putting her in a trunk in his appartment. That Rat Bastard also voted some stupid Scottish law BS of "Not proven" in the Impeachment Trial.

He deserves to be remembered for ALL his misdeeds.

"is asking tough questions"

Anyone can ask tough questions, but Specter rarely provides any correct answers.
