WorldNetDaily: Iraq: Lynchpin of terror war
Topic: Current Events 11:46 pm EDT, Apr 15, 2004

] While Timothy McVeigh was executed for his role in the
] bombing and Terry Nichols is in jail still facing murder
] charges in the attack, evidence introduced in their
] trials supports the Iraqi theory. An FBI report records a
] call a few hours after the bombing from Vincent
] Cannistraro, a retired CIA official who had once been
] chief of operations for the agency's counter-terrorism
] center. He told Kevin Foust, a FBI counter-terror
] investigator, that he'd been called by a top
] counter-terror adviser to the Saudi royal family.
]
] Foust reported that the Saudi told Cannistraro about
] "information that there was a 'squad' of people currently
] in the United States, very possibly Iraqis, who have been
] tasked with carrying out terrorist attacks against the
] United States. The Saudi claimed that he had seen a list
] of 'targets,' and that the first on the list was the
] federal building in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma."

Interesting information about the tie from Oklahoma City bombings,
Iraq and terrorists.
