Oklahoma City +10: Others Unpunished
by MG William A. Flatt
As ten-year anniversaries go, this date is as somber as it was two years ago. Although the nation gained a sense of closure with the execution of Timothy McVeigh and the life imprisonment of Terry Nichols, those of us who have closely followed the case still have a lot of unanswered questions. The connection between the OKC bombing and Waco had nothing to do with McVeigh's alleged anger toward the federal government; that was a smokescreen. The bombing was more likely based on several unexplained facts, such as the federal building being the repository of all the physical evidence of the Waco massacre.
Isn't it convenient for the feds that the place where all the incriminating remains of their crime is destroyed? Coincidences do happen, but since Waco I stopped believing in coincidences.
The Oklahoma Bombing Investigation Committee also does not believe in coincidences. Although I cannot discuss what I know they will be looking at, I can say that they are reinvigorating their investigations into the events and parties involved the bombing. I know that the investigation will never truly end until the whole truth has been uncovered, at which point I hope we will learn who else was involved.
Rep. Dana Rohrabacher (R-Huntington Beach), chairman of the investigative arm of the House Committee on International Relations, has been collecting new evidence in the bombing and said he would announce whether formal hearings would be opened into the April 19, 1995, tragedy. The congressman said it was important to determine whether others were involved beyond Nichols and McVeigh.
"That this mass murder of Americans was accomplished by two disgruntled veterans acting alone seems to be the conclusion reached by those in authority," Rohrabacher said recently. "However, there are some unsettling loose ends and unanswered questions. . .This is a free society, and if the public is to have faith in their government, we cannot keep secrets like this."
While government officials past and present attended this month's ten-year observance of the bombing, little is being said about Bill Clinton's wild slander that conservative Americans were to blame. Likewise, the media has largely refrained from their false and libelous claims that patriots in the militia movement were somehow connected, possibly because of FBI statements exonerating the militias.
Perhaps the media are largely silent because they feel they accomplished their damage of associating militias and patriots with domestic terrorists; individuals whose white- supremacist or Islamic connections may yet be conclusively demonstrated. The soft-pedaling of the 10 year anniversary of the OKC bombing is not without good reasons. The mostly left-wing dominated media and their confederates in government service have tied themselves down to their uninvestigated theory that the bombing was the result of extremely angry right-wingers. If an Al-Quaeda connection is ever proven, it will explode their "lone gunman" theories.
However, McVeigh and Nichols had an entire constellation of others involved with them, including Michael Fortier, his wife Lori, gun dealer Roger Moore, German national Andreas Strassmeir, Iraqi national Al-Hussein Husseini, and more.
Another avenue of investigation is the apparent murder of material witnesses to the bombing, such as OKC policeman Terry Yeakey, and others. Why is it that in events such as these, material witnesses end up dead under highly suspicious circumstances?
Is it possible that events such as these have a common thread, and if so, what is that common denominator? Is there a genuine causal link between certain assassinations in the 1960's, the FBI, BATF, covert agencies, criminal organizations, gun smuggling, Ruby Ridge, Waco, OKC, TWA 800, KAL 007, WTC 1993, and 9/11 ?!?
We should definitely honor the memory of the innocent victims and murdered material witnesses. We should pray that future tragedies can be averted, and that the truth yet uncovered will be discovered by honest investigators. Most of all, we should pray that the others who were involved will not go unpunished.
Anyone with information on the OKC bombing should contact the OKBIC, led by former Oklahoma State Representative, Charles Key. Their website is located at http://www.okcbombing.org
