The government continues to go out of their way to avoid investigating anything that might show a Middle-East connection to Oklahoma City, even when it could bolster their case against Moussaoui. In fact, they may not only have avoided evidence, they may have deliberately disposed of it.

The motel owner said he and his staff reported this information to the FBI in 1995. "We did have an ATF agent come out and collect the originals of the room registrations for that period, but we never heard back from them. And I never could get the registrations returned." He added that his previous experience with the FBI made him reluctant to contact them about Moussaoui. "But I decided it was my duty to tell them what had happened. So I did."

Former Oklahoma City TV reporter Jayna Davis also interviewed motel staff and former guests. In the process, she collected signed affidavits about their contacts with McVeigh and the Iraqis. She tried twice to give the Bureau this information, but the FBI refused to accept her materials.

I don't understand why Jim Crogan and Paul Sperry are the only reporters following this story. It could turn out to be a blockbuster, but most of the press seems to want to avert their eyes along with the FBI and the Administration. Perhaps because they too were all too eager to pin OKC exclusively on the evil right wingers...
