Liar. McVeigh was a rightwing "christian" and student of Armageddon texts who also worshipped David Koresh, who called himself the 2nd Coming of Christ. There was nothing agnostic about him.

Liar. Clinton's people warned Bush about Al Qaida in 2001, warned them over and over. And Bush and his people totally ignored the dire warnings. They did absolutely nothing against terrorism until Sept 5, 2001 when they had their first initial staff meeting, but even then they gave out no security clearances to investigators, and Bush clearly ignored the 8-6.01 memo warning of imminent attacks inside the US by Bin Laden.

"Liberals" (by which you dishonestly mean democrats) have proven themselves to be much better on counbter-terrorism. Terrorists have had no better friend than GW Bush. Just look at the results.

McVeigh attacked the OK Fed Building for Christ. That is, David Koresh, who claimed he was Christ. And I guess McVeigh believed him. McVeigh was also a NRA members and listener of Rush Limbaugh. He was the worst terrorist we have ever had outside 9-11.

At the time McVeigh rented the truck used in the explosion, the woman at the car rental place believed the third man was perhaps a Mexican. She thought this because the man was very dark skinned. Since she lived in Oklahoma, close to the Mexican border, one can see why she might have thought that.


Looking back and after studying pictures of Middle Eastern terrorists, there is a very real possibility that the third man may not have been Mexican, but was indeed a terrorist.

Since the third man was never found, there is a very real possibility that the missing man was a Middle Eastern national and behind the planning and supplier of money for the bombing.

Everyone jumped on the suggestion that McVeigh was a right wing nut, so Clinton had little or no investigation to find the real money or brains behind the bombing.

If the Clinton administration had looked deeper into the disappearance of the third man, perhaps there would have been an additional relationship to terrorist acts in the US.

Because it was to a large extent much easier to put the culpability on right wing whacko’s, which at the time the buzz word was for a mean spirited community who picked on Clinton with no perceptible basis except Hillary said they did. The Press assumed he was a right wing gun fanatic. Once again, no action by the Clintons.
