Was Timothy McVeigh set up to be a patsy? Metinks so!
There are hours of tapes of Mr. McVeigh bragging about the deed.
One does not preclude the other.
McVeigh may have been followed, encouraged, guided, and then taken
advantage of -- with extra explosives as "insurance," as the
efficacy of a truck bomb some considerable distance from the
building was naturally doubted by the experts involved.
I was listening to the radio in the minutes and hours immediately
after the event, and there were definitely reports of additional
bombs inside the building -- which stands to reason, considering the
massive damage.
It was also extremely suspicious that McVeigh, shortly before the
attack, placed a number of apparently pointless telephone calls.
He (if indeed it _was_ he and not a helpful "associate") did this
using a phone card sold by Liberty Lobby, a right-wing populist
group. He called a long list of right-wing and pro-White racial
organizations a few days before the bombing, typically leaving
messages and asking -- almost begging -- to be contacted. The tally
of organizations he tried to contact is very similar to those on the
SPLC's alleged "hate group" list.
It would be as if Lee Harvey Oswald had sat down during the first
weeks of November, 1963, and made dozens of telephone calls
attempting to set up meetings with every left-wing group on the
House Un-American Activities Committee list -- and did so from the
lobby phone at Americans for Democratic Action.
McVeigh's association with Nichols was probably not part of his
handlers' plans, since it vitiated their claim that the bombing was
the work of "racists." (Nichols was in an interracial marriage.) So
McVeigh clearly had a considerable degree of freedom of action, and
was not operating under direct orders.
But a patsy nonetheless? I say that is very likely.
Cui bono? Those who wanted increased government power to monitor,
infiltrate, and stifle dissenters. (Legislation that presaged the
Patriot Act -- itself triggered by a later, possibly false flag,
event -- was pushed through after OKC.) Those who wanted to demonize
radicals who question the Empire. Those who wanted -- and still want
-- to demonize groups that demand self-determination.
With all good wishes,
Kevin Alfred Strom.
