explosion at OU results in suicide
Person Found Dead After Loud Boom At OU

Saturday October 01, 2005 11:18pm


Norman (AP) - Authorities say one person was killed in an explosion Saturday night on the University of Oklahoma campus.

O-U President David Boren says the incident near Oklahoma Memorial Stadium was a suicide and is under investigation.

The loud noise of the explosion could be heard inside stadium, where about 84-thousand people were watching the Oklahoma Sooners play Kansas State.

Officers cordoned off an area west of the stadium and no one was allowed out of the stadium immediately after the blast, which occurred shortly before halftime.

People were allowed out of the stadium later and Boren says at no time were the spectators in danger.

A police bomb squad detonated explosives found at the site of the blast. The area near the stadium was searched by bomb dogs.

2. sniff test
How many people commit suicide by explosion? Something's not right here and I'm suspicious of just about anything that's under Boren's watch.

I've been watching Boren for a long time. Why? Boren is George Tenet's mentor and patron. Boren has promoted and pulled strings for Tenet at every stage of his career, elevating him to positions when there many other far more qualified candidates. Boren's got a network going at the CIA.

See this post by M. Wright at this link:

Scroll down to "Just Tenet."

A few weeks ago a poster remarked about how often strange events come out of Oklahoma. Others concurred.

This one bears watching.

4. OK,I don't see it
I mean other than a possible "using this person for a CIA test ala the 1960's",I don't see where there is anything sinister here and really the article didn't even leave open the above.

What I saw was a (LOL!!) "closet homosexual"-OldBoy network. After coming here,I am really starting to wonder about good ol george!!!


Anyway,relax-what I think we had tonight was a very sad (albet very dramatic) suicide. Nothing more......

5. Unless your trying to make some kind of statement
or take someone with you. The OU Prez Boren (former Sen) connection to Tenet is interesting and you can couple that with the significant number of foreign national students attracted to the Geosciences and Engineering schools (used to be a lot of Iranians in the Nuclear Engr. program there in the 70s). They found other explosives nearby.

Maybe not tin foil hat time yet, but have to wonder...

Okla and K State, involves the two states linked in 95 with the OKC bombing. Still lots of random militia groups around the area and don't discount the value this misAdministration places on misdirection.
