Re: then one must consider that the "government" was both complicit in the crime and involved in its cover-up.

Actually, our dispute boils down to the definition of "government"... You claim that the OKC outrage was MASTERMINDED by Clinton's liberal administration whereas I merely contend that there were no high-level officials involved in the OKC conspiracy. If anything, the Clinton administration tried to conceal the masterminds because they were mid-level officials: FBI agents, local sheriffs, military officers, wealthy businessmen and the like... The exposure of such a violent underground network with links to key law-enforcement and intelligence agencies would have been a devastating bombshell. The coverup, if any, was merely "damage control" by the US government... A similar predicament occurred in Belgium in the past few years when the Dutroux scandal unfolded: our Justice bureaucracy skillfully managed to circumscribe the whole pedophile network to FOUR villains only --Messrs Dutroux, Nihoul, Lelièvre and Mrs Martin. All their connections and ramifications to organized crime, politicians, police officers, etc were scrapped and expunged from the records....
