Oklahoma City: 10 Years Later

Whatever happened to the infamous John Doe No. 2? A case of mistaken identity or a cover-up of what really happened on April 19, 1995? Former Oklahoma City television reporter Jayna Davis continues to dig:

And she located two dozen witnesses who identified eight specific Middle Eastern men, the majority of whom were ex-Iraqi soldiers, who were seen with McVeigh and Nichols. Two witnesses named Al-Hussaini as the dark-haired, olive-skinned man they observed one block from the Murrah Building just before daybreak on the day of the blast.

She also uncovered evidence that implicated several of Al-Hussaini's co-workers. One of these men was identified as sitting in the driver's seat of a Chevy pickup at an Oklahoma City apartment complex hours before the truck was abandoned on the lot and towed to the FBI command post. According to police records, the truck had been stripped of its vehicle identification numbers and identifying body molding.

I remain puzzled as to why we had a full-blown commission appointed to investigate 9-11, yet no one seems very interested in Oklahoma City -- and the numerous questions remaining about what really happened 10 years ago.
