Inquiring minds want to know

On the internet there were rumors of a "suicide bombing" at a big football game, in the parking lot...

Since the boy had a German name, it was assumed that he was merely psychotic or depressed...but now it turns out he had a Pakistani roommate...

Michelle Malkin is all over it LINK

The reason this is interesting is that my last US home was Oklahoma, and at the time of the OKC bombing, I had just come back to the Philippines from a small town near OKC...and knew some of the rescuers...

There is a large muslim community in Oklahoma, and many rumors that the "third man" was either a German ex military type at a white supremicist farm, or a local Iraqi with connections with Saddam Hussein...and the Filippinos think Terri McNichols met with AlQuada in Makati to learn to make bombs...

Conspiracy theories anyone?

My guess is the first...but the suspicion that there was a government coverup for political reasons is strong enough that the second conspirator, Terri McNichols, was not given the death penalty but merely life imprisonment, by not one but two juries---the federal jury and even the local Oklahoma jury...And since Oklahoma, like Texas, believes in the death penalty, one must conclude that the jury wanted to keep him alive...

Maybe in twenty years we'll find out the entire story....

hmm...curiouser and curiouser...
