Jayna Davis - From Oklahoma City to the Middle East

Some good thoughts on the supposedly non existent links that is sort of old but deserves to be read.
Jayna Davis - From Oklahoma City to the Middle East 0 OKLAHOMA CITY — With the Sept. 11 anniversary upon us and President Bush talking about a “regime change” in Iraq, it’s an apt time to look at two investigators who connect Baghdad to two notorious incidents of domestic terrorism. Jayna Davis, a former television reporter in Oklahoma City, believes an Iraqi cell was involved in the 1995 bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building here. Middle East expert Laurie Mylroie links Iraq to the first bombing of the World Trade Center in 1993, and has published a book on the subject. Both cases are closed, of course — in the public mind if not quite officially. Timothy McVeigh was convicted of murder in the Oklahoma City bombing and executed in June 2001; Terry Nichols was sentenced to life in prison for conspiracy and manslaughter, and faces a further trial on murder charges. In the World Trade Center bombing, prosecutors convicted six men of Middle Eastern origin on the theory that they operated in a “loose network.” One suspect remains at large, but the apparent ringleader, known as Ramzi Yousef, was captured in Pakistan and is now in federal prison in the U.S.
