Exclamation Congressional Report Into OKC Bombing Released

http://www.koco.com/news/10611882/detail.html

WASHINGTON -- A two-year congressional inquiry into the Oklahoma City bombing concludes that the FBI didn't fully investigate whether other suspects may have helped Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols with the deadly 1995 attack, allowing questions to linger a decade later.

The House International Relations investigative subcommittee released its findings, declaring there is no conclusive evidence of a foreign connection to the attack but that far too many unanswered questions remain.

The subcommittee's report will conclude there is no doubt McVeigh and Nichols were the main perpetrators, and it discloses for the first time that Nichols confirmed to House investigators he participated in the robbery of an Arkansas gun dealer that provided the proceeds for the attack.

There have long been questions about that robbery because the FBI concluded McVeigh was in another state at the time it occurred.

The report also sharply criticizes the FBI for failing to be curious enough to pursue credible information that foreign or U.S. citizens may have had contact with Nichols or McVeigh and could have assisted their plot.

The complete 15 page report can be read (via a pdf file) at the link I provided.

Edit: I just finished reading the 15 page report, and all I can say is the FBI & DoJ f**ked this case up bigtime. I mean this subcommittee can almost connect the dots for Ramsi Yusef (The first WTC bomber) to Terry Nichols, that is disturbing to me (The report makes it sound like Nichols needed some expert bomb building advice, and Yusef could have been the one to provide it.)
