I finally received my copy of this book and have spent the last three days off and on reading it.
Let me preface the rest of my comments with this statement: I am not normally very enamored with investigative journalists. I generally adopt a strong "wait and see" attitude with them.
This book chronicals the nine year investigation by this reporter into a middle east connection to the Oklahoma City bombing of the Murrah Fedreal Building on April 19, 1995.
Upon discriminating scrutiny of the evidence she presents, I can say that I now have no doubt that not only was there a middle east tie in, but one specifically tied to Iraq and Saddam Hussein, along with some eerie fingers pointed toward 9-11.
Twenty-three eye witness accounts tie it into a neat package. The evidence is undeniable. These are ORDINARY American citizens going about their normal everyday tasks and observing things going on around them. The investigative integrity is rock-solid. This woman is a credit to her UT education.
And, as promised, I do have a burning question to ask. Is the FBI up to the task of domestic terrorism(homegrown or otherwise)? I'll let you be the judge on that one. As for my opinion, I hope the new Homeland Security office is up to the challenge. (I understand that the FBI are cops, not soldiers. They're not trained to handle military style attacks.)
To those of you who read this brief description, it can be best summed up by this: If you consider yourself an American patriot, if you believe in truth and JUSTICE, you OWE it to yourself and to your children to learn the facts. This book is a dang good place to start.
