Obama's Supreme
pick tied to TWA 800, OKC bombing, Exclusive: Jack Cashill urges senators to ask Garland what he
knew, when he knew it, by Jack Cashill, 3/16/16
Da Noive! President
Barack Obama has chosen to nominate United States Appeals Court Judge Merrick
Garland to the Supreme Court.
We are told he is a
“moderate,” but we know how that works. The other “moderates” on the high court
somehow manage to march their way in lockstep to the officially designated
liberal position on every single major case. Can anyone name an exception?
But that is the least of
my objections. Whatever his merits, Garland served as Deputy Attorney General
Jamie Gorelick’s “principal deputy” during the two most corrupt years in
American political history – the years leading up to Bill Clinton’s reelection
in 1996 – and that service alone should kill his candidacy.
Although Garland has no
known connection with the TWA 800 investigation, it happened during his watch,
and his boss oversaw its unprecedented misdirection.
My newest book on the
subject, “TWA 800: The Crash, The Cover-up, And the Conspiracy,” spells out Gorelick’s role in all its unseemly
detail. The book will be published before the crash’s 20th anniversary in July,
but I would be happy to share an advanced copy with any U.S. senator who wants
to know the truth.
In sum, Gorelick and the
Clintons pulled off the most successful cover-up in American peacetime history.
As a reward, the otherwise unqualified Gorelick was named vice-president of
Fannie Mae in 1997, in which job she made more than $25 million during the next
six years.
In 2004, Gorelick
resigned from Fannie Mae to assume one of only five Democratic seats on the
9/11 Commission, a position no one challenged until Attorney General John
Ashcroft testified before the commission on April 13, 2004.
“The single greatest
structural cause for the September 11th problem was the wall that segregated or
separated criminal investigators and intelligence agents,” said Ashcroft.
“Government erected this
wall, government buttressed this wall, and before September 11th government was
blinded by this wall.”
Ashcroft spoke of the
memorandum that established the wall and added a detail that had gone
previously unspoken, “The author of this memorandum is a member of the
commission.” He was referring, of course, to Gorelick.
Thanks to a mother lode
of unearthed CIA documents and one key FBI video, we now know that Gorelick
breached her own “wall” to allow the CIA and FBI to work hand and glove in the
subversion of the TWA 800 investigation. Senators need to ask Garland what he
knew about TWA 800 and when he knew it.
Garland was deeply
involved with another questionable investigation, that of the Oklahoma City
bombing. In fact, he supervised the prosecutions of Timothy McVeigh and Terry
Nichols. What someone needs to ask Garland is what happened to John Doe No. 2.
In the way of
background, 20 minutes before the April 19, 1995, blast in downtown Oklahoma
City, employees at a tire store spotted McVeigh and a short Mideastern-looking
man, in the infamous Ryder truck, and even gave the pair directions to the
Murrah building intersection.
Witness Daina Bradley
cried out to the rescuers who were trying to extricate her after the blast –
they had to amputate her leg to do so – “It was a Ryder truck. It pulled up, a
foreign-looking man got out, and then before long, everything went black.”
Five minutes before the
blast, printing operator Jerry Nance noticed an unusual car in the downtown
Oklahoma City parking lot near where he worked. It was a dilapidated yellow
Mercury Marquis. Behind the wheel was a dark-skinned, Middle Eastern-looking
man in a ball cap.
When Nance walked back
towards the car, after getting some stuff from his own car, the Mercury Marquis
almost ran him over. The Middle Eastern man was now sitting in the passenger
seat, and a tall white man was driving the car out of the parking lot,
recklessly at that.
Two minutes later, the
Murrah building blew. Nance informed the FBI of this incident before anyone
knew McVeigh was apprehended in a yellow Mercury Marquis.
A week later, the FBI
quoted Nance and the tire store employees in its request before a federal judge
to hold McVeigh over for trial. One of the tire store employees picked McVeigh
out of a lineup of look-alikes even before he saw McVeigh on TV.
According to the
Washington Post of April 28, 1995, a federal judge ordered McVeigh to be held
after an FBI agent “described eyewitness accounts
of a yellow Mercury with McVeigh and
another man inside speeding away from a parking lot near the federal
building.” (Italics added.)
For the next six weeks,
John Doe No. 2 was the most hunted man in the world until, without explanation,
he just kind of went away, again without the media even commenting on his
disappearance. Perhaps Garland could shed some lights on his whereabouts.
Garland was also
involved with the Olympic Park bombing. As the reader may recall, security
guard Richard Jewell was patrolling the grounds of Centennial Park in Atlanta.
Right around midnight he
spotted a large olive-green military-style backpack under a bench. He
immediately shared this info with the Georgia Bureau of Investigation. Jewell
and the GBI agent then started to clear an area around the pack.
Soon afterward, the pack
exploded. Two people died, and more than a hundred were injured. If Jewell had
not seen this 40-pound bomb, it might have killed hundreds.
Likely fearing an
Islamic connection as they did in Oklahoma City, the Clinton people turned on
the transparently innocent Richard Jewell and hounded him all the way to the
November election. Our senators might want to ask who authorized the hounding.
In fact, there are a lot
of questions they should ask, and to start, they might call in Gorelick and
Hillary as character witnesses.
