Truthdig - Reports - A Coverup Under Two Presidents: The Unsolved Mystery of the Oklahoma City Bombing

Truthdig - Reports - A Coverup Under Two Presidents: The Unsolved Mystery of the Oklahoma City Bombing:

"The full lessons from all this remain to be learned, in part because we are very far from getting to the bottom of the mystery. But it's clear that the intelligence failures and institutional coverups we have seen in the wake of the Sept. 11 attacks and the Iraq war are part of a historical pattern. The FBI, in common with other federal agencies, is interested in defending its own bureaucratic interests first and establishing the truth only a distant second. It is prepared to go to extraordinary lengths to avoid having to admit mistakes, even if that means allowing people suspected of posing a significant threat to public safety to go free.
Dennis Mahon, who is banned from travel to Britain and other countries because of his political activities, has never been seriously troubled by the Oklahoma City bomb investigators. Andreas Strassmeir was allowed to leave the United States and return to Germany in early 1996 even though it was clear at the time that he had had contact with McVeigh immediately before the bombing and might, at the very least, have made an important witness. Several of the ARA bank robbers, meanwhile, have completed their sentences and are now free."


Time to dig the tin hat out boys and girls! Actual footage of two people getting out of the Ryder truck before the bombing. And guess what? Terry Nichols wasn't either one. Let's see, McVeigh dead, Nichols in prison for life, and the third person? The third person and most likely others that were involved are still out there... Makes ya feel real secure doesn't it?
