NATIONAL INTELLIGENCE DIRECTOR CANDIDATE COVERED UP OKC BOMBING

Patrick Briley February 10, 2005 NewsWithViews.com

Congress created the director of national intelligence in December 2004 to manage all 15 agencies that make up the U.S. intelligence community.

The director will have authority over the $40 billion the United States spends on intelligence collection each year. But the national intelligence director will also still have to share control over the CIA and Pentagon intelligence agencies with the CIA director and defense secretary, respectively.

Two former intelligence officials said late last week that Vice Admiral William O. Studeman is under consideration for the national intelligence director by President Bush.

Studeman was formerly deputy director of the CIA and head of the National Security Agency and also served as interim acting director of the CIA at the time of the OKC bombing.

Studeman is currently on Bush's own intelligence study panel, “the Commission on the Intelligence Capabilities of the United States Regarding Weapons of Mass Destruction.” This commission was established almost a year ago andis scheduled to report by March 31, 2005. The commission was tasked to examine the organization and capabilities of the intelligence community. The commission announced in December 2004 that it will also include the recently enacted intelligence reforms as part of its examination of the intelligence community

Admiral William O. Studeman served as acting CIA director from 11 January 1995 to 3 July 1995 during the time of the OKC Bombing on April 19, 1995.

Studeman had been appointed by President GHW Bush and became Deputy Director of CIA on 9 April 1992.

Studeman became acting Director of the CIA when Admiral Woolsey unexpectedly resigned as Director of the CIA in January 1995. Studeman served as acting director until replaced by John Deutsch in July 1995.

Previously Studeman had served as the Director of Naval Intelligence (1985-1988) and then as the Director of the National Security Agency (8/88-4/92) under President GHW Bush. He went directly from NSA to Deputy CIA Director in April 1992 after his appointment by Bush.

In a Chicago Tribune article dated April 21, 1995, two days after the OKC Bombing, Admiral Studeman, as acting Director of CIA, is quoted about who caused the bombing. Studeman confirmed that the OKC Bombing indicated “ the true globalization of the terrorist threat.” In other words, Studeman said in effect that the OKC bombing was done with the help of others outside of the US (“globalization”) besides just McVeigh and Terry Nichols.

What portended of future attempts by current President GW Bush and AG Ashcroft to push for loss of freedoms to fight terrorism (Patriot Act flaws and FISA court violations by Ashcroft requests) is the fact that the article that Studeman is quoted in was entitled “Trading Privacy (Freedom) for Security”

As pointed out in my article FBI and DOJ Connivance Permeates, Interconnects Terror Attacks dated 8/15/02, President GHW Bush has publicly advocated suspension of the US Constitution and violation of laws by CIA and FBI agents inside the US to allow domestic spying on Americans. This is what President GHW Bush and his appointee to the CIA, Admiral Studeman, his son GW Bush and Ashcroft have had in mind and what now Alberto Gonzales and Homeland Security Chief nominee Michale Chertoff currently have in mind when they take actions to trade freedoms and privacy for security.

In July 1992 President GHW Bush enlisted the CIA and Admiral Studeman as acting CIA Director (Bob Gates was out of the country) to chill and shut down public complaints by Congressman Henry Gonzales of Texas about Bush’s illegal transfers to Iraq.

Henry B. Gonzales read and introduced into the Congressional record hundreds of examples of where President Bush personally approved export licenses for transfers of weapons of mass destruction (WMD) technology from US companies to Iraq with the direct assistance of the CIA, Studeman, the Iraqi agent for Saddam Hussein, Ishan Barbouti, and illegal loans from BNL and BCCI banks (covered up by FBI Director Mueller when he a was at DOJ under Bush Senior).

Admiral Studeman sent a letter to Henry B. Gonzales telling Henry Gonzales he was under investigation by the CIA’s office of Security because of President GHW Bush assertions that Gonzales had revealed top secret intelligence information when Gonzalez introduced evidence in Congress of Bush illegal transfers of WMD’s to Iraq. The story of Studeman’s actions is told in the article “Bush Administration Uses CIA to Stonewall Iraqgate Investigation” by Jack Calhoun in a 1992 edition of Covert Action Quarterly..

The WMDs provided by President GHW Bush to Ishan Barbouti and Iraq with the direct help of the CIA and knowledge of Admiral Studeman included rocket fuel booster TK7 from OKC (could have been used in OKC bombing), cyanide gas technology from Baca Raton Florida and biological agents such as anthrax and microorganisms to poison water supplies. The ABC Nightline program aired in July 1992 and described the CIA involvement with President GHW Bush to transfer the WMDs to Iraq. Ted Kopel stated on the program that if ABC revealed everything it had learned during the ABC investigation, it would “bring down the US government”. Nothing happened to Gonzalez but this story is a chilling like the recent investigations of US Senators on the Intelligence Committee who President GW Bush is having investigated by the FBI for alleged leaks of information from hearings relating to the CIA and FBI failures leading to the 9/11 attacks.

In 1992 GHW Bush did not want the public to learn from and believe Gonzales about Bush connivance and illegal conduct with Iraq and Saddam with WMDs. In 2002 GW Bush did not want the public to learn from and believe Senators about the CIA memo that Bush was briefed on August 6, 2001 about AlQaeda airliner attacks inside the US based on FBI and CIA informants who had lived and had contact with 9/11 hijacker pilots for many months.

President GW Bush tried to control and limit the hearings by first having Tenet’s deputy appear to reveal only limited information to a select few Senators. When that did not work, Bush had FBI agent Kelly give the Senator’s controlled briefings. The only problem is that Kelly covered up the Waco investigation for the FBI according to Senator Danforth himself. Bush’s choice of Kelly was an indication of more cover-up of the 9/11 failures.

When Kelly’s and Bush’s attempts did not fully work, Bush had the FBI investigate the Senators, an action that surely chilled the Senators investigations, an action similar to that taken by Bush Senior in 1992 to intimidate and discredit Congressman Gonzales’ allegations that Bush and the CIA with Admiral Studeman’s knowledge illegally transferred WMDs to Iraq.

When Studeman was acting Director of the CIA in 1995 he was responsible for learning by February 1995 from his CIA station chief in the Philippines of the meeting with Terry Nichols and Iraqi agents (Abdul Murad, Ramzi Yousef, Khalid Mohammed) and the Iraqi agents’ plans for the OKC bombing and the “9/11” style attacks on US skyscrapers with airliners. The plans were on Ramzi Yousef’s computer and fully translated and understood by the FBI and CIA in late January and early February 1995. The CIA and FBI also learned the plan details and of Khalid’s involvement from confessions of Abdul Murad in February 1995.

Yousef was imprisoned for the 1993 WTC attack. Yousef was living with his uncle Khalid Mohammed in an apartment in the Philippines in early 1995. Khalid Mohammed was the mastermind of the 9/11, 1993 WTC and OKC bombing attacks working directly for Iraq and Studeman was in the top CIA position to know it

Studeman was responsible for learning in February 1995 of Khalid Mohammed’s involvement in the planning of these attacks, that he was an Iraqi agent for Saddam Hussein and that eight Iraqis were involved in the AlQaeda (Abu Sayeff ) cell in the Philippines who met with Nichols and planned the attacks including two assassination attempts on Clinton and one on the pope. I suggest that Clinton learned what Studeman knew in 1995 and that GW and GHW Bush should know today what Studeman knew in 1995.

The leading Iraqi suspect seen helping McVeigh (in OKC) and Nichols (in Kansas and Newkirk OK) do the OKC bombing was Al Hussaini. Hussaini was brought to the US by President GHW Bush with the knowledge and help of the CIA under James Woolsey and his deputy Admiral Studeman. Witnesses in OKC now say that Al Hussaini was escorted by a well-dressed man named Khalid (Mohammed?) from Boston to OKC in November 1994. Other witnesses say that Khalid Mohammed (already likely known to Studeman and the CIA from Yousef’s computer and Abdul Murad confession), along with AlQaeda leader Dr. Zawahiri and FBI/CIA informant Ali Moahmmed was in OKC in 1995 and allegedly paid by Al Hussaini’s employer Samir Khalil, a Hamas fund raiser and operative in OKC protected by the FBI and CIA to this day.

After the OKC bombing, investigators have now alleged that they learned that Al Hussaini went to Houston and was helped by Ishan Barbouti’s son Heider Barbouti . The FBI and CIA never brought in Hussaini for questioning. Studeman, as acting CIA director, knew of Ishan and Heider Barboutis operations for Iraq prior to the Gulf War because the CIA under GHW Bush’s direction, helped the Barboutis acquire WMDs for Iraq and Saddam Hussein. And Studeman knew that Al Hussain was brought to the US by President GHW Bush and the CIA. Studeman would have known that Hussaini went to stay with Barbouti after the OKC bombing and Studeman never had Hussaini brought in to justice.

Could it be that Hussaini was a CIA informant and/or that the CIA, Studeman and Clinton would not act over Iraq involvement in the OKC bombing because they were compromised by the connivance actions of GHW Bush and the CIA with Barbouti before the Gulf War and with Al Hussaini after the Gulf War?

What did Studeman learn about Iraqi agent Khalid Mohammed’s visit and operations in OKC with McVeigh and Al Hussaini’s protected employer prior to and after the OKC bombing? Studeman was responsible to know of Al Hussaini and of Khalid Mohammed from the Philippine operations so he likely learned of their activities in OKC at some point.

Why is it that to this day President GW Bush does not use facts about the acts of war by Iraq and Saddam against America for the OKC bombing and the 1993 and 9/11 attacks as a reason to justify US removing Saddam and his WMDs? Is it possible that GW Bush does not want to use these facts as a reason because GW Bush has been compromised by the likely illegal connivance of his father GHW Bush and the former CIA Director William Studeman with Iraq, Saddam, Barbouti and Al Hussaini? It is ironic that GW Bush used a weaker line of reasoning to move against Iraq, namely to remove and destroy the now missing WMD’s that GW Bush’s father helped Saddam Hussein acquire and build.

If Studeman is nominated as national intelligence director, Admiral Studeman should be questioned and compelled to tell all to Congress during his confirmation hearings. Studeman should explain his quote to the Chicago Tribune on April 21, 1995 where Studeman said that global terrorism was involved. Now we know why Studeman was in a position to make that statement because of what is now known about President GHW Bush, Barbouti, AL Husaini , Saddam and the CIA involvement. Did Studeman illegally (take unlawful orders) help Clinton and President GW Bush cover-up the Iraqi and CIA connection to the OKC bombing?

Or will President GW Bush not nominate Studeman as national intelligence director to avoid Congressional interrogation incriminating to Bush and his father? Of course of Bush does nominate Studeman, watch for Bush to use Republican and Democratic Senators to limit questions into Studeman’s involvement with HW and GW Bush and Clinton to cover-up transfers of WMDS to Iraq and USG foreknowledge of the OKC bombing, the 1993 WTC bombing and the 9-11 style attacks.

OKC Bombshell Implicates Feds In Murrah Blast

After nearly a decade, shocking, suppressed evidence emerges

By Pat Shannan

Only moments after an enormous blast blew away most of the facade and a full quarter of the eastern end of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City in 1995, the FBI and Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (BATF) began to release evidence implicating two men, and two men only, who they claimed were solely responsible. The evidence later showed that Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols had confessed to the impossible.

At first, several independent investigators came forward to complain that there was an obvious cover-up. Now they call it the “ongoing cover-up of the cover-up.” And now, even the new OKC museum contradicts the official theory of what happened on April 19.

Officials in charge at the time still refuse to discuss anything other than the manufactured spin: McVeigh and Nichols, as convicted by the courts, mixed up a large batch of ammonium nitrate fuel oil (ANFO—a mild explosive used by farmers to blow out stumps) and demolished several square blocks of downtown Oklahoma City with a devastating blast that could be heard miles away.

In reality, the ANFO story was born only 10 minutes after the blast when a high-ranking BATF official by the name of Harry Everhart witnessed the blast from nearby and called the BATF office in Dallas to excitedly announce, “Someone has just blown up the federal building in Oklahoma City with a truckload of ANFO!”

Some reporters and investigators, who have looked objectively at the bombing, now argue that neither Everhart nor anyone else could have correctly deduced in such a short time exactly what caused the explosion.

According to government documents released later, Ever hart was experienced in loading large amounts of ammonium nitrate fertilizer into a vehicle for use as a terrorist truck bomb, and his presence in the midst of the second worst terrorist attack in U.S. history looms suspicious to this day.

Records indicate that this ANFO explosives expert and his associates had destroyed at least eight vehicles in “test bombing experiments” at a secret range in the New Mexico desert in the 12 months prior to the OKC bombing.

Everhart and his fellow specialists even photographed and videotaped these truck bombs as they detonated.

Far from an anti government militia member, the vehicle bomb expert was Special Agent Everhart, an employee of the Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco and Firearms. And, according to federal government records obtained later, Everhart had been instrumental in obtaining the government funding to perform the ANFO bombing tests.

Everhart served on the National Response Team (NRT), a group of experienced bomb and arson investigators who respond to major bombing crime scenes throughout the United States.

He also served on a secret government project in 1994 that conducted tests using ANFO and C-4 to blow up cars and vans in a classified U.S. government experiment known as “Project Dipole Might.”

According to files, reports and photographs obtained from the Department of the Treasury through a Freedom of Information Act request, the U.S. government initiated a “comprehensive ANFO and C-4 vehicle bomb testing program” about a year before the OKC bombing. Records show the project was supervised and administered by the BATF, but was actually funded through a National Security Council (NSC) directive.

The Department of Treasury has confirmed the project was initiated under President Bill Clinton’s NSC staff shortly after he took office in 1993.

The intent of the Dipole Might experiments in 1994 includes making videos and computer models to “be displayed in a courtroom to aid in the prosecution of defendants” in vehicle bomb cases, according to government documents. The exact precedent and purpose of this activity is unclear. BATF agents started blowing up vans and cars in the spring of 1994 at the White Sands Missile Range in order to collect test data for post-blast forensics computer software packages to be issued out to National Response Team personnel when they respond to truck bombings.

Why the NSC would fund such a BATF project—despite the rarity of the crime—has not been explained.

Nor has it been explained as to what specific threat-assessment information the government had when it decided to engage in such a project, just a few months before officials claimed a Ryder truck laden with ammonium nitrate fertilizer exploded in front of the Murrah building.

The only major ANFO vehicle bombing in U.S. history, prior to OKC, occurred in August 1970 at the University of Wisconsin, in Madison, Wis.

Contrary to media reports, the World Trade Center bomb of February 1993 was composed of urea nitrate, not ANFO, according to the FBI.

Despite only one known case in almost 25 years, why did Clinton’s NSC anticipate a need for detailed information regarding ANFO vehicle bomb attacks a few months prior to the Oklahoma City blast?

Treasury’s own official documents reveal the intensity of interest. In fact, a brief summary of “Project Dipole Might” is featured in BATF’s 1994 Annual Report to Congress.

There were enough clandestine characters hanging around Oklahoma City to fill a James Bond movie during the days prior to the crime.

BATF’s paid informant Carol Howe had provided information that the Murrah building was one of three potential targets.

On April 6, Cary Gagan gave U.S. marshals in Denver the information that “a federal building would be blown up in either Denver or Oklahoma City within two weeks.” He had not only personally delivered timers and blasting caps to a Middle Eastern group, but had sat in on a meeting where the blueprints of the Murrah Building were on display.

Then, 38 minutes before the blasts on April 19, the Department of Justice in Washington received an anonymous telephone call warning that the Murrah Building was about to be blown up but took no action.

After a morning of reporting that “multiple bombs” had been found in the Murrah debris—a report publicly confirmed by the Gov. Frank Keating—and that rescue operations had been halted for two hours while these unexploded bombs were removed, news people suddenly began to spin the government yarn about an ANFO bomb being responsible for the enormous damage.

One of the problems with that theory was the fact that the columns remained standing directly across the sidewalk from the truck as opposed to those that had collapsed more than 50 feet away. A retired air force brigadier general with 30 years experience compiled an irrefutable report on this subject, which showed exactly where the charges were placed inside the building.

It was so irrefutable that the prosecution refused to allow him to testify at the Denver trial as it would have destroyed any ANFO theory that the government had already sold to the American people.

On May 23, 1995, only 34 days after the explosions, the federal government stonewalled all attempts to examine the building’s remaining structure and carried out an ordered demolition, destroying and burying forever what many believed contained the evidence of many explosions.

In its issue of Oct. 11, 19, as well as other issues, the now defunct weekly Spotlight newspaper fully covered the Oklahoma City incident and conclusively proved the accuracy of reporter Shannan’s above story. The bombing was definitely a federal government operation; just why Nichols and McVeigh confessed is a mystery that forbids the closure of the case.

If so, that would be the bigger story. If so, that means any Iraqis involved were just props and a diversion.

This information provided by The Federal Observer, [url]http://www.federalobserver.com[/url] Shannan: Federal Murder Inc. Tied to OKC Terror Bombing Police Sergeant Suicided To Keep Truth Hidden

By Pat Shannan

The terror loosed in Oklahoma City on April 19, 1995, was created by criminals and murderers directed by and paid for by the federal government. This is the only conclusion that can be reached by a calm analysis of the facts.

The case of Sgt. Terry Yeakey is only one of a myriad of dramatic stories that could be told-stories just waiting for Hollywood, but out of bounds for public consumption.

It has been nearly 10 years since Oklahoma City's Murrah building was blown apart one quiet April morning. Contrary to news reports, the persons found guilty and sentenced for the Murrah bombing atrocity could not have been solely responsible. An Oklahoma City police sergeant became aware of this before anyone else, apparently during the first hour of rescue. He paid for that discovery with his life.

Yeakey, an African-American hero if there ever was one, was a giant of a man with a heart as big as the rest of him. As the first cop on the Murrah building scene following the explosions, he became a crusader for truth.

There is a memorable news photo of his 6-foot, 3-inch, nearly 300-pound frame sprinting down NW 5th Street toward the building on one of the many rescue missions he performed that ugly day. He worked for 48 hours without sleep.

After numerous private investigators produced evidence of multiple explosions, unexploded bombs being hauled away by the authorities, and the incapability of an ammonium nitrate fuel oil bomb to cause the kind of devastation seen in downtown Oklahoma City, a giant government cover-up became obvious.

But Yeakey knew it long before the rest of us. Only a couple of hours into the rescue, Yeakey became painfully aware of something disturbing. Did he somehow figure out that the building had been blown from the inside and that the news reports were abrications?

Did he overhear a strange conversation from some of the many Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (BATF) agents who were on the scene sooner than they should have been?

Whatever it was, Yeakey was upset. He called his wife that morning crying, "It's not true. It's not what they are saying. It didn't happen that way."

Yeakey ran back and forth into that concrete mess of bricks and mortar all day long and continued beyond exhaustion, far into the night.

In a cadre of heroes that day, Yeakey's performance was outstanding. On May 11, the following year he was scheduled to receive the Medal of Valor from the Oklahoma City Police Department (OCPD). He never got it. He was murdered on May 8, 1996, in the country, two and a half miles west of the El Reno Penitentiary. His body was found a mile from his blood-soaked car.

The official report said "suicide." However, many people who knew Yeakey have questioned that, as the inside of Terry's private automobile was described by witnesses as looking like someone had "butchered a hog" on the front seat. There was much blood on the back seat, too, but little or none where his body was found a mile away.

More suspiciously, his private bombing reports were missing from his car and have never been found.

According to the report, while still inside his Ford Probe that he had parked on a lonely country road, Yeakey slashed himself 11 times on both forearms before cutting his throat twice near the jugular vein. Then, apparently seeking an even more private place to die, he crawled 8,000 feet through rough terrain and climbed a fence before shooting himself in the head with a small caliber revolver, which he apparently took with him to the hereafter.

Independent investigators speculated that had Yeakey shot himself with his own gun, a Glock 9mm, there would have been significantly more damage to his head than was evident.

What appeared to be rope burns on his neck, handcuff bruises to his wrists, and muddy grass embedded in his slash wounds strongly indicated that he had some help in traversing his final distance.

However, the information about the victim undergoing a violent beating prior to his "suicide" was left off the medical examiner's report.

The bullet's entrance wound was in the right temple, above the eye. It went through the policeman's head and exited in the area of the left cheek, near the bottom of the earlobe line. The trajectory was from a 40-45 degree angle above his head. There were no powder burns.

According to unnamed officers, 40 or more law enforcement personnel were at the scene combing the area for the "suicide" weapon, but were unsuccessful for more than an hour.

But after an FBI helicopter landed at the scene carrying FBI SAC Bob Ricks, "Yeakey's weapon" was suddenly discovered only five minutes later. Of course, it was not Yeakey's police issue handgun, and the description of the weapon has never been made public, but the official record immediately became that of "suicide."

One of the last people Yeakey talked to was a friend who knew he was on a mission of private investigation. Yeakey had told him that he was on his way to El Reno to check out something, but first he had to shake the FBI agents who were following him.

He reportedly stopped at a café in El Reno and spoke with a friend and had either lunch or coffee there around noon. His body was found at 1:30 p.m. the same day, yet his family was not notified until the following day on May 9.

Tonya Yeakey, the mother of his children, later reported in a radio interview that Yeakey had shared a secret safe deposit box with Dr. Charles Chumley at one of the downtown Oklahoma City banks. Despite denials by OCPD officials, Mrs. Yeakey maintains that Yeakey and Chumley were friends even before the bombing and that they had conferred several times regarding pictures from the scene and the distorted truth of the official story.

She suspects that the bank box contained incriminating pictures, but the private bank box in mention was closed and its contents emptied immediately after Yeakey's death. Mrs. Yeakey does not know who authorized it, and whatever contents were there have never surfaced.

Chumley had only worked side by side with Yeakey during those first hours and days of rescue, but also had defied the federal officers at the scene who reportedly attempted to have him falsify reports.

Chumley, a private pilot, had also died mysteriously when his plane went into a nosedive from 6,000 feet into a cabbage field following a takeoff from Amarillo in August 1995. FAA investigators found "nothing mechanically wrong" to cause such a bizarre ccident and it remains a unsolved.

Including Chumley and Yeakey, there have been more than 30 suspicious deaths of witnesses who harbored information pertinent to the truth in the OKC case. During recent decades, much of the FBI has earned the reputation of being more of a government protectorate than an efficient investigative agency.

Although the Yeakey incident occurred 30 miles away in a different jurisdiction, the investigation was quickly taken out of the hands of the El Reno police and the Canadian County sheriff and turned over to the OCPD and the FBI. No homicide investigation was conducted, and there was no autopsy.

The funeral director reported that the cuts described as "superficial" in the medical examiner's report were so severe that they had to be sewn up to prevent leakage before the body could be embalmed.

One retired cop, who preferred anonymity, suggested that the strange hush-up of a cop killing was easily instigated by the FBI because of its knowledge of drug crimes within the ranks of the OCPD.

"It's a hammer that [FBI agents] have held over our heads for a long time," he said.

In an exclusive interview with American Free Press, Mrs. Yeaky said that her husband had been upset by something he had seen under the day care center during the rescue operation. He had wanted to go back and photograph it, but the officials would not let him onto the site again.

She said Yeakey had been ordered by his superiors at OCPD to rewrite his nine-page report to omit and alter certain facts and to condense it to but one page.

She said she was told by her husband's superior, Lt. Joann Randall, in a brief but hostile telephone exchange, to "tell Terry that if the new report is not submitted by the end of the week, he will be put on reprimand."

Mrs. Yeakey also said Yeakey was supposed to be decorated for his work as a rescue person, but didn't really want the limelight. She said Yeakey felt the investigation was fraudulent and didn't like the fact that the OCPD was honoring people who weren't deserving.

Yeakey had told friends that he was going out of town to hide or secure "evidence of a cover-up of the bombing by federal agents."
