Janice , I saw an interview of an author of a new book on TV,, Can't recall his or the book's name. It was about all the bombings that go on in the States and their relationship to grass roots unhappiness . He lived with some of these people , "not bombers" but people who have lost their family farms etc. and have what would appear to them justifiable reasons for a large mistrust of the Gov't. He said that grain grown in the US is controlled by 7 very large companies, which own the farms , the ships, trains, elevators and anything else associated with it's production. His point was that there are laws in place to prevent these types of monopolies , but are not being used.
He also pointed out that these bombings very seldom rate front page but are very frequent and mostly target Gov't property. He felt that this problem was not going away but actually on the increase, and viewing things like Oklahoma as an isolated incident would be a grave mistake.
