Luckily, the Subway shop actually had a video camera recording that day's events. When Van Buren contacted the FBI, agents interviewed everyone working in the shop on April 18. And when they were done, they confiscated the video recorded that day.

OK, so WHERE is that videotape? Is it as "mysteriously missing" as the 7-20-93 White House parking lot videotape?

It would be interesting to see the picture of JD 2 and this Padilla guy.

Just a ping...even Salon.com gets into the "Who Was John Doe #2" act.

I haven't time to read the article now...but even some of the writers at Salon
will occassionally turn out some good reporting...

I forget....HOW did McVeigh get the Truck Bomb to go off without getting himself killed? Timer?

Where exactly did he buy the jet fuel (kerosene?) from? Did he put it right into the barrels of his Ryder Truck or did he BUY barrels of the fuel?

And WHY was he kept after the State Trooper stoped him for a missing tag??

Where was Terry Nichol when the bomb went off?

Just a couple of refresher course questions.

The article was OK except for the clunker about ANFO explosives: ANFO is a "low explosive." It sure does explode, but not with anything like the energy of a military munition of the same weight. Upgrading the chemistry will not weave a high explosive silk purse from an ANFO sow's ear. Yeah, you can improve it, but it isn't going to totally transform it for some very fundamental reasons.

I really have no truck with the people who want to complexify things by claiming there were more bombs, but I found it very odd the article would go so far as to concede that an ANFO bomb could not have brought down the building, and then tried to patch that hole with the lame "jet fuel" thing. Jet fuel is very like kerosene. Just because jet planes use it instead of diesel or fuel oil does not mean jet fuel has vastly more energy. IF McVeigh's bomb was really much more powerful than a truckload of ANFO, it was for some other reason than using jet fuel.

Didn't Janet Reno already conclude that JD #2 was Rush Limbaugh??? As they say in Arkansas, "dead men don't talk."

Pray for GW and the Truth

Hey guys...this is the Government we're supposed to blindly follow - just 'cause we are at war.

How many violations of the law by the FBI can you two count in this story?

[Delbert]

Terry Nichols is still alive as we know, does anyone know if they are making afforts to extract more info out of him? Or does someone in the higher ups not want him to be forthcoming with additional information? I think McVeigh was executed pre maturely, we should have been able to get more information from him. It would have been interesting to see what McVeigh or Nichols had to say about the Mexican Muslim.

Two books to read on this are "The Oklahoma City bombing and the Politics of Terror" and "Oklahoma City, Day One". I suggest reading them. I read "American Terrorist" also. By reading as many books as you can on the same subject it is possible to weed through any prejudical slants that different writers take on the same subject, and you can get a clearer picture on what happened. Something other than a lone bomber took place here, the depth of the corruption is very deep, and we will probably never know the truth, but we should never stop seeking it.

There was no terrorist #2. TWA was not brought down by a missile. I did not have sex with that woman. No controlling legal authority.

Wonder if this motel owner could identify Padilla!!!!
