"Their chief anti-terrorism expert warned them before OKC that an act of terror was going to take place in the heartland by "lily whites" and his information was pretty much ignored."
One of the things that bug me to this day is the fact that while pieces were still hitting the ground, the news announced that "arabs" had done it.

I was home from work that day and saw the press releases and the pictures of the Muslim man wanted in connection with the OKC bombing.

A woman trapped in the rubble, who had her leg amputated in the building to free her from the rubble, told doctors and policemen before they worked on her about the Muslim man with the tattoo she described to a tee getting out of the Ryder truck seconds before it exploded.

She is one of 40 credible witnesses who described the same man and the same tattoo as the guy with McVey in the weeks and minutes before the bombing.

Partly because Bodansky--the "chief anti-terrorism expert" mentioned in this article--had told them so. He had a goobermint position, but he also has a checkered past. See my #11.

That's because eyewitnesses saw Arabs leaving the scene. On-camera interviews with witnesses from the first hours after the bombing revealed that--then it quickly got buried. Much better from Clinton's point of view to blame it on Rush Limbaugh, directly or indirectly.
