Anything to this? I don’t know. I’d like to find out. Will we find out? Probably not. “Probe of Islamic ties ‘obstructed’ by feds: Congressman who chaired panel says public ‘would be outraged if they knew the extent,'” by Art Moore for WorldNetDaily.com, with thanks to all who sent this in:
Federal officials were “outrageously obstructive” during a congressional probe examining possible Islamic terrorist and foreign ties to the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing, according to a congressman who disclosed to WND some of the highlights of a subcommittee report scheduled for release next week.
“The public would be outraged if they knew the extent of obstruction, or lack of cooperation, that has been given to this investigation,” said Rep. Dana Rohrabacher, R-Calif., who led the probe as chairman of the International Relations’ Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations.
One example was the Justice Department’s handling of a lead Rohrabacher received from an independent investigator concerning a Muslim figure with suspected ties to the Oklahoma City bombing whose name curiously shows up on the list of unindicted co-conspirators in the 1993 World Trade Center attack. The New York City bombing was attributed to Muslim terrorists connected to al-Qaida.
The report will document a series of correspondence between the subcommittee team and Justice officials that concluded with a refusal to turn over information about the suspect — for no apparently legitimate reason, according to Rohrabacher.
“This may well reflect the way the Justice Department deals with legislative branch investigations in general, which is very disappointing,” Rohrabacher told WND. “In this case, however, we’re talking about the investigation of the mass murder of 168 Americans and how that relates to the threat we face today from al-Qaida, and we find that to be rather alarming.”
