Wow! What a FR home-page you have!!!

Thank you for your unique perspective on this totally screwed-up OKC situation. I wasn't there, but I watched it unfold live on TV and will never forget EVERYONE starting to run away as someone kept yelling that another bomb was about to "go off!" The terror on their "professional" faces was striking!!!

I had just rode the conservative pendulum swing into elective office and could just feel the air going out of the "Contract With American" and all things conservative with our creepy POTUS cleverly shifting the blame for this on to all things conservative!!!

I will always believe strongly that the opportunistic bastard just found it entirely too convenient to save his sorry differential from political oblivion after the people of this great nation repudiated both him and his Party in November 1994, overturning 30 plus years of Demonic-Rat rule by presumed "divine right" in the Congress!!!

Bless you for your service and may you finally get some satisfaction from some investigation into this traumatic "turning point" event in American history! We all need "some answers" besides _Jim's!!!

_Jim provides documentation. Too many stand on the sidelines and shout "tin foil hats!" at us and know nothing more than what they heard from 30 seconds on ABCNNBCBS.

Now, I am prompted to post one more time because of "Ron." Ron is a caller to the Jerry Pearce show on AM860 Fresno, CA weekends 1600-1900. Ron like _Jim defends the original findings and both are adamant but reasonably respectful of others' opinions.

Ron denounces the "conspiracies." But here's the rub, talk about conspiracies!. He feeeeeeeels that McVeigh was moved to action by all the hate talk on radio. Ron pleaded with Jerry to stop talking about this and move on lest he stir others to commit crimes.

"Others" being us dim-witted, redneck-stupid drooling, listener-dogs who are conditioned to perform acts of violence. He was not just grasping for a reason to argue against reopening the investigation. He was serious. He's an anointed one. I know them type. :)

Like the New York reporter who said she couldn't believe that Nixon carried 49 states in 1972, because "I don't know anyone who voted for Nixon!" these guys don't know any of us yet they feeeeeeeeeeel they know all of us. Too bad for them. But, nevertheless maybe they are right about the original findings? I don't think so. I'm hungry, gotta go.

Thank you for your intelligent, informed post. I hope you are still in law enforcement. And thanks for your service!

[judicial meanz]

I appreciate the kind remarks from both of you.

I have always felt there is more to the story than 2 yokels in a rented truck with fertilizer, racing fuel, and blasting caps. It would be refreshing to hear the whole story.

I've long since retired and dont really feel the urge to go back into active law enforcement. I am semi retired now, and enjoying the first real breath of personal freedom since I was a teenager.

If I did go back, I would have to look pretty far and wide to find the special types of people I worked with out there.

It was all done by two white males.
Time to move on; nothing to see here.

The mere fact of Andreas Carl Strassmeier reconnoitering targets with Timothy McVeigh means nothing.

The presence of Terry Nichols in the Philippines attending Ramzi Yousef's Jihad Night at Senior Bingo is irrelevant.

This Jayna Davis and her Iraqi John Doe Number Two is a typical bit of female madness--you know of course that women's hair emits radiation that drives men insane, don't you?

The 180 on the Middle Eastern connection which gained Clinton eleven points in the polls and got him reelected despite the 1994 conservative resurgence is coincidence only.

As for the theory of prior knowledge--hah! The missing BATF officers all had to drop their kids at school that day, and so they were late--there is nothing to it.

I-40 Motel--you can check out any time you like--but you can never leave.

Excellent comments... both of you!!!

I cracked up seeing Baghdad Bob splainin EVERYTHING!!! He's always so precise and predictable. Almost makes a person wish they could "trust" him!(grin) You keep expecting him to say: "I'm from the government and I'm here to help you."(barf)

[Broker]

He even shut down my Mexican connection theory as totally unworthy of debate.

Let me see. Why would our US Federal Government want to frame McVeigh and limit the scope of this to a small band of White extremists. What a sorry group. Yet it is Jim and company who limit our scope. If it were Islamofacists, our Govt. have a field day. Who do we not want to openly retaliate against? Mexico. At that time, the most corrupt drug economy in this hemisphere.

Chew on that!

[SierraWasp]

Sorry, I'ma smoker, not a chewer! (grin)

Remember this? "When the full stories of these two incidents (1993 WTC Center bombing and 1995 Oklahoma City bombing) are finally told, those who permitted the investigations to stop short will owe big explanations to these two brave women (Middle East expert Laurie Mylroie and journalist Jayna Davis). And the nation will owe them a debt of gratitude."
-- Former CIA Director James Woolsey, "The Iraq Connection", Wall Street Journal, September 5, 2002


It seems that Woolsey believes there is an Iraqi connection - does that make him a 'kook' too, _jimmy?

Bookmarking again. One of these days I'm gonna follow up on that.

Your persistence is commendable; this is a giant puzzle but eventually all the pieces will fit.
