Manny Badillo Endorses Book Insinuating Islamic Role in OKC Bombing

Got this mass mail from Manny Badillo:

 

Happy New Year All,

Hoping for continued Health, Happiness and Progress in all our
endeavors. Wanted to offer a link to a Final Report that i feel offers
an excellent example of what could be the 'comprehensive reference work'
our research community desires as a result of our collective efforts.
After reading the latest update from the Toronto Hearings, please review
the "Final Report on the Bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Building". This
report was completed and published three weeks before Sept 11th, 2001. i
have a copy of this report - it's huge, more than thorough, and does 
great justice to the Oklahoma City 'state crime against democracy'.
http://www.okcbombing.net/books&videos.htm &
http://www.amazon.com/Report-Bombing-Alfred-Murrah-Building/dp/0971051305

Maybe the filmmakers of 'A Noble Lie' have a copy or two that can be
sent to the authors of our historical 9/11 report in the making? Thank
You all for everything you've accomplished and will accomplish this year
in pursuit of our goals, for my family, and countless others.

Sincerely and with Gratitude,

Manny

 

Here are some excerpts from the reviews:

 The OKBIC does, however, support reporter Jayna Davis' claim "that Iraqi
(sic) terrorist Osama Bin (sic) Laden had financed the Oklahoma City
bombing" as presented in her book, The Third Terrorist. The OKBIC does
not offer any definitive evidence demonstrating a Muslim connection,
other than rumors and innuendos, which begs the question: Why would the
government not pursue a Muslim connection if indeed one really existed?
In fact, immediately after the bombing, the FBI hunted down a possible
Muslim suspect as he traveled overseas and had him searched and
returned to the United States. And that was only one of the leads
initially pursued exploring the possibility of Muslim involvement. Yet,
the OKBIC repeatedly implied, without foundation, that the government
did not pursue the possibility of Islamic terrorists.

another reviewer:

In hindsight, some observers wonder whether the devastating 1995 attack
was both precursor and connected to the Sept. 11, 2002 attacks on New
York and Washington which took more than 3,000 lives.

This research--conducted by the Oklahoma Bombing Investigation
Committee, and funded by private citizens--raises many unsettling
questions.

For starters it provides clear evidence that U.S. Federal
authorities never found all of the perpetrators of the Oklahoma City
attack, that they did not pursue every lead, and that they did not
utilize all available physical evidence. Substantial evidence surfaced
that dozens of crucial eyewitnesses were neither interviewed nor called
at federal trials.

In October 1995, Oklahoma State Representative Charles Key
petitioned the District Court of Oklahoma County for a Grand jury to be
formed to investigate the bombing. His petition was denied in February
1997.

Nevertheless, an FBI agent swore in an affidavit included in this
volume that Abraham Abdallah Ahmed, a Jordanian-born naturalized U.S.
citizen detained by American Airlines security personnel in Chicago on
April 19, 1995 met the description of one of the male suspects seen
running from the scene of the bombing. Ahmed flew from Oklahoma City to
Chicago after the bombing. The FBI man further swore that Ahmed's
luggage, which continued to Rome, contained several car radios,
substantial amounts of shielded and unshielded wire, a small tool kit
and other tools. While these could be used for everyday work, they were
also "consistent with use" for "explosive devices." Ahmed was requested
to appear before a Grand Jury, but had fled.

...

Had complete work been done in 1995, might 2001 have been prevented?

Anyone else have a problem with Manny endorsing this BS?

Have you seen that film he mentions?

The psyop sites run by Alex "mininukes" Jones is pushing that video "A Noble Lie" as the end-all-be-all of the Ok. City Bombing story. This Manny guy mentions it as well. Then I just saw it sitting in the background of a Corbet Report video (where he was saying Paul's neoliberalism is better than Romney's and Obama's)

Have you seen this video? Does it purport the same angry Muslims/Murah Building connection that Manny is seemingly backing?

Oklahoma Bombing Investigation Committee

I think that you guys totally missed Manny’s point here! For you to boil years of research down to this is beyond insulting to everyone involved. It is obvious that you have not even read the material that you are discussing. The Oklahoma Bombing Investigation Committee did a very thorough job. There is evidence that people based out of the Middle East were involved in the OKC Bombing, and it is reasonable for them to mention it in the Final Report. Keep in mind this subject is a very tiny portion of the overall work. Obviously everyone here knows that these Middle Eastern groups are ran by the CIA. Former CIA Director James Woolsey is even pushing the idea that “Al Qaeda” was involved. This is the reason that I did not include the subject in A Noble Lie. I don’t want people who don’t understand the bigger picture, in regards to “Al Qaeda”, to use this as another reason to support bloody wars of aggression. But to say that they were not involved in the bombing only servers the cover-up!

Hello Mr. Lane

I've been wanting to see your film for a while now.

I tend to disagree with you a bit, though I am glad that for whatever reason you chose not to include this line of research in your film "A Noble Lie"

Let's look at it this way, what is the evidence suggesting "Saddam Hussein", "al Qaeda", and bin Laden were involved in the OKC bombing?

What Jayna Davis' "evidence" boils down to is the say-so of some FBI agents and a hand-drawn sketch of John Doe #2.

Do you really trust the FBI after their investigation into the anthrax attacks? I don't. Do you believe the FBI's explanation as to how it was that Zacarias Moussaoui was able to use Nick Berg's laptop computer in Norman Oklahoma back in 1999? I don't. And for that matter, neither did Jayna Davis. http://www.historycommons.org/entity.jsp?entity=jayna_davis

And what about James Woolsey that you mention. Didn't he in fact support Davis' claim that Saddam Hussein was behind the OKC bombing right before we invaded Iraq? I do believe he did. http://www.salon.com/2002/12/02/mcveigh_9/

In fact, Davis went on the the Iraq war spin-up campaign with PNAC member Frank Gaffney saying as much back then. And then recently she went on Frank Gaffney's radio show and blamed al Qaeda. http://bigpeace.com/sfr/2011/04/12/jayna-davis-middle-eastern-involvemen...

Seems her mysterious shifting identity Muslim changes whenever the neo-cons want to push for more war against one or the other "angry Muslims" in the world.

So in short Mr. Lane, no, I don't give her much credit for her "the Muslims did it" storyline.

Pre 9/11

I understand now why the "9/11 aspect" of the Oklahoma bombing was omitted. We have to remember that the final report was released weeks before 9/11 and that Bin Laden's "build up" was designed for the "evil doer" and hate figure role.

We also have to remember that the forgotten 90s was the time of WTC93, was the time when details were coming out about Lockerbie, IranContra and the subsequent disclosure of CIA training, infiltration and commanding of Middle Eastern groups and imposed regimes. Not forgetting the TWA800 missile strike which would have taken out an ElAl flight which was replaced by TWA800. Did any "old hands" here imagine the scale to which Bin Laden would be used? Or just how low tptb would go?

Any "middle eastern involvement" would have been controlled and manipulated by the CIA/Mossad. Even the genuine whistleblowers may have been spoonfed disinfo.

OKC and those who have exposed the hands on tangible evidence are a group who have wide ranging conclusions from those who maybe have too much faith in the information drip fed to them by "former" agents to those who believe that this was an intentional false flag operation. Sound familiar?
But they get along as far as I can see.

I personally have a problem with Alex Jones as he makes the dual claim that there were explosives inside the building and that it was a "sting gone wrong". It can't be both. Having said that, we shouldn't let any gatekeepers take away from the evidence. Learn from our mistakes I say.

Naieve optimism maybe. But I would wait to see the follow up to "A Noble Lie" before making any judgement.
