Someone just emailed me about this, and it is odd that we've heard nothing about this - those of us who live outside of Oklahoma.
Basically, some kid either blew himself up with a bomb, or got blown up near a bomb, right outside a University of Oklahoma football stadium full of people. The university and the feds are claiming it was just an isolated incident, the kid had no ties to terrorist organizations, etc. But the local news is now reporting that witnesses say the kid tried to get into the stadium with a big backpack, and when a security guard tried to look into the backpack, the kid bolted. (Video here on this aspect).
The bomber reportedly had a Pakistani roomate, who was taken into custody after the bombing and then released. And while that could be just a coincidence, an excellent blog in Oklahoma is reporting this:
Oklahoma News 9 is reporting that Hinrichs began attending the same Norman mosque once attended by convicted 9-11 conspirator Zacarias Moussaoui.If true, that's quite interesting.
The blog further dissects the local news on this, and points out some glaring inconsistencies between the official story and what the media is turning up.
Maybe this was just a kid who killed himself, but it sure sounds like more than the authorities are letting on. Is any national media looking at this?
