Third Terrorist In Oklahoma City Bombing Middle Eastern

 

On the morning of April 19, 1995, the date of the Oklahoma City bombing, Jayna Davis was a broadcast journalist for KFOR-TV in Oklahoma City.  Several news reports at the time, including one by Davis, contained information about a mysteriously cancelled FBI alert for a John Doe No. 2 described as a “Middle-Eastern-looking” terrorist wanted in connection with the bombing. The TV stories generated numerous confidential phone tips about a group of foreign nationals from Iraq, including one named Hussain Hashem Al-Hussaini who seemed to match an FBI profile sketch of John Doe No. 2.

The search for the second John Doe in the Oklahoma City Bombing would take well over 15 years. In March 2011 a homeless man was arrested in the Boston suburb of Quincy, Massachusetts, on charges of assault and battery with a deadly weapon after striking another man with a broken beer bottle. His name was eventually identified as Hussain Hashem al-Hussaini, although he had a previous arrest record under several other aliases.

Eyewitness reports, sworn statements and news reports at the time of the bombing identified al-Hussaini as accompanying Timothy McVeigh in the Ryder truck used to deliver the bomb, exiting the truck at ground zero minutes prior to the blast, leaving downtown Oklahoma City at a high rate of speed immediately after detonation of the truck bomb, and being seen with McVeigh at various times and locations before the bombing.

Al-Hussaini, once an elite member of the Iraqi military and part of Saddam Hussain’s Republican Guard, first entered the U.S. shortly after the first Gulf War in 1991, at approximately the same time as Saddam was plotting assassination attempts against George H. W. Bush.  Terrorist Ramzi Yousef, perpetrator of the first World Trade Center attack, and Terry Nichols, McVeigh’s known accomplice, were both in Cebu City in the Philippines three months before the Oklahoma City bombing, possibly planning the terror attack.

After the Oklahoma City bombing al-Hussaini moved to Boston, Massachusetts, where he worked at Boston Logan International Airport.  On September 11th 2001 he lived with two other Iraqis who provided food catering services for the commercial airlines at Boston Logan, airport of origin for two of the hijacked planes that struck the World Trade Center.

In 2004 Jayna Davis compiled her evidence of a middle eastern conspiracy behind the OKC bombing into a book titled The Third Terrorist: The Middle East Connection to the Oklahoma City Bombing. The book, which presents evidence linking the Oklahoma City bombers to agents of Iraq, Al-Qaeda, and the Islamic Republic of Iran under the state sponsorship of the Ayatollah, became a New York Times best-seller.
