Interest ofJohn O'Neill

Official narrative

A small fiberglass boat carrying explosives and two suicide bombers approached the port side of the destroyer and detonated a bomb. Al Qaeda claimed responsibility.

Follow up

[United States Ambassador to Yemen]] Barbara Bodine obstructed John O'Neill's investigation into this event. O'Neill was later murdered on September 11, 2001.

Alternative theories

Joe Vialls and several other commentators have suggested that attack was a false flag. Several have blamed Israel, some suggesting that the ship was hit by a missile from a submarine.[1][2][3]
