            Thirty Oklahoma City Bombing Questions
            That Demand an Answer NOW!

            From Team Infinity
            http://TeamInfinity.com/

            Despite Timothy McVeigh's guilty verdict, numerous
unanswered questions about the murderous
            Oklahoma City bombing remain. Indeed, there are so many
unanswered questions, it is amazing
            that the prosecution was able to secure a conviction at
all.

            So pull up a front-row seat for the McVeigh lynching,
folks, and contemplate a few of the
            contradictions in the official account of the OKC bombing
before it all gets flushed down the
            memory hole. If this list doesn't make you paranoid, you
must be one of them!

            [To read the startling evidence which the jury was barred
from hearing, be sure to check out
            Timothy McVeigh's Writ of Mandamus, posted by
TeamInfinity.com.]



            1.
            If the bombing of the Alfred E. Murrah Federal building in
Oklahoma City was a terrorist reprisal
            for the Federal massacre of the Branch Davidians at Waco,
why were no BATF or FBI agents
            injured? Why was EVERY BADGE-CARRYING FEDERAL AGENT absent
from work at
            nine o'clock on a weekday morning, their offices staffed
only with civilian clerical workers?



            2.
            When the word first got out that no Federal agents had been
present in the building, the BATF
            produced its Resident Agent Alex McCauley who told a long
story about his own heroism and
            that of a fellow ATF man who allegedly fell three floors in
an elevator, walked away from it, and
            then helped rescue others trapped by the bomb. This was
quickly exposed as a fabrication in an
            angry interview by building maintenance supervisor Duane
James, who described McCauley's
            story as "pure fantasy". James examined the elevator in
question and also the central control panel
            and pointed out a number of technical and logical reasons
why the miraculous elevator incident
            simply couldn't have happened in the way claimed. The
McCauley account was quietly retracted
            and flushed down the memory hole by the ATF, with the help
of the media. They now admit that
            McCauley was nowhere near the building when the bomb went
off, although they refuse to
            discuss his exact whereabouts or the whereabouts of any
other ATF agent at the time of the
            explosion.

            Will BATF Agent Alex McCauley be disciplined for telling a
self-serving lie which falsely made
            himself out to be a hero? If that was not the purpose, why
did he make this palpably false public
            statement?



            3.
            Why was U.S. Judge Wayne Alley, whose office was located in
the Federal building, warned
            several weeks in advance in a Justice Department memo to be
prepared for an unnamed "terrorist
            act" directed against the Federal building?



            4.
            Judge Alley made the above admission to the Portland
Oregonian immediately after the bombing.
            He has since refused to repeat it or allow himself to be
interviewed again. Why?



            5.
            Why did Ken Stern fax warnings to Federal judges and
officials, legislators, and prosecutors
            warning of a possible attack on a government building of
installation on the second anniversary of
            Waco on April 10th, 1995, nine days before the OKC bombing?



            6.
            "Norma," a witness who worked in an office building just
down the street from the Federal
            building, told reporter Sherry Koonce what she saw prior to
the explosion: "The day was fine,
            everything was normal when I arrived for work at about 7:45
a.m. There was some talk about the
            bomb squad among the employees at our office. We wondered
what it was doing in our parking
            lot. Around nine I heard and felt a huge explosion. Then
someone said it had to be a bomb, and
            we all knew. I remembered the bomb squad in our parking lot
and knew what had happened."

            "Norma" has since quit her job, gone into hiding and
refused to speak again to any reporters or
            investigators. So have a number of other people who saw the
heavily armed and equipped bomb
            squad in the area up to three hours before the blast. Why?



            7.
            Why did all mention of the facts outlined in questions 1
thru 6 disappeared from the news media
            after the first week of coverage of the bombing? Why has
the media consistently suppressed and
            refused to report any information or evidence which
indicates that, at the very least and regardless
            of who was responsible, there was Federal foreknowledge
that the bombing would take place?



            8.
            By definition, a terrorist must take credit for his
violence, or else there is no compelling reason to
            commit a crime. The specific purpose of terrorism is to
gain a political end through the credible
            threat to commit future acts of violence. No one has
claimed credit for the Oklahoma City
            bombing. Militia and right-wing groups, the alleged
masterminds and presumed beneficiaries, have
            been particularly vehement in denouncing the explosion and
in many cases have cooperated
            directly with Federal agencies to absolve themselves of any
involvement. The only statement of
            alleged political motive comes from the very government
which was attacked. Why is this?



            9.
            Did the Alfred Murrah building warehouse documents relating
to the attack on the Branch
            Davidians at Waco? If so, what happened to those documents?
Were they destroyed? If so,
            were any copies kept elsewhere? If not, why not?



            10.
            Will the missing papers, if any, affect former Attorney
General Ramsey Clark's lawsuit against the
            ATF and FBI on behalf of the Branch Davidian survivors?



            11.
            Why did the Director of the University of Oklahoma's
Geological Survey, Dr. Charles Mankin,
            tell the media that according to two different
seismographic records there were TWO blasts, the
            second approximately eight seconds after the first?



            12.
            The news media initially reported that there were two
explosions, based on eyewitness testimony.
            Why did this version of events disappear from print and the
air waves within twenty-four hours?



            13.
            According to the prosecution, McVeigh used an ANFO
(Ammonium Nitrate and Fuel Oil) bomb
            to destroy the Alfred P. Murrah federal building. McGyver
makes it look real easy on TV. But
            according to Department of the Army and Air Force Technical
Manual No. 9-1910, entitled
            Military Explosives, ANFO requires a greater than 99%
purity of ammonium nitrate, as well as
            a specific dryness, before it can be mixed with diesel fuel
to create an explosive substance. The
            manual further spells out that even under ideal conditions
(not often reached even by experts)
            4,800 pounds of ANFO explosive would create a much smaller
crater than the one left in front of
            the Murrah building, and its shock wave could not possibly
wield the force necessary to
            compromise the building's concrete support structure. The
FBI claims that the ANFO charge was
            made from 50 bags of fertilizer. Ammonium nitrate
fertilizers comes in much weaker
            concentrations than the 99%-plus required for explosives.
Creating concentrated amounts of
            ammonium nitrate is quite complex, and would require many
bags of fertilizer. In short, according
            to the government's own textbook, the Oklahoma City bombing
COULD NOT HAVE
            HAPPENED IN THE WAY THE FBI SAYS IT HAPPENED. IT IS A
PHYSICAL,
            CHEMICAL, AND THERMODYNAMIC IMPOSSIBILITY. Why is the FBI
lying?



            14.
            Retired Air Force Brigadier General Benton K. Partin,
former commander of the Air Force
            Armament Technology Laboratory, a 25-year expert in the
design and development of bombs,
            urged Senators and Congressmen to delay the destruction of
the Murrah building site. Partin
            stated in a news release, "When I first saw the picture of
the truck bomb's asymmetrical damage
            to the Federal building in Oklahoma, my immediate reaction
was that the pattern of damage
            would have been technically impossible without
supplementary demolition charges at some of the
            reinforced concrete bases inside the building, a standard
demolition technique." Partin further
            explained that "reinforced concrete targets in large
buildings are hard targets to blast. I know of
            no way possible to reproduce the apparent building damage
through simply a truck bomb effort."
            General Partin's request to have the bomb site preserved in
order to examine the possibility of a
            second explosion was ignored by the government. Why?



            15.
            General Partin's press release, quoted above, was reprinted
in the John Birch Society magazine
            New American. Based on this the news media launched an
egregious and bogus smear campaign
            against General Benton K. Partin, claiming falsely that he
was a member of the John Birch Society
            and therefore a "right-wing extremist". [General Partin's
report has been widely circulated and
            reproduced, including an electronic version here on
ParaScope.] General Partin has been forced
            repeatedly to threaten lawsuits in order to obtain grudging
and deliberately downplayed
            retractions and corrections of this allegation. His alleged
JBS membership still appears in print and
            broadcast media today as fact, even though the media are by
now perfectly well aware that the
            allegation is false. Why are the news media telling a
deliberate lie in order to discredit a highly
            respected expert who questions the official government
version of Oklahoma City?



            16.
            There have been repeated studies done by a variety of
accredited explosives experts and
            professional demolition contractors, such as former FBI
agent Ted Gunderson. All of these have
            stated their professional opinion that the destruction of
the Murrah building could only have been
            accomplished with top-grade military explosives,
detonators, and careful placement of multiple
            charges. Why have the media ignored these expert opinions?
Why, indeed, have the media
            engaged in a concerted campaign to abuse, vilify, discredit
and marginalize as a "crank" or a
            "right-wing extremist" any explosives expert or engineer
who questions the official FBI version of
            the bomb's construction and explosive power?



            17.
            There is not a single piece of concrete evidence to connect
either Timothy McVeigh or Terry
            Nichols to any militia or right-wing group. Why has the
news media refused to acknowledge this
            fact and continued to spread the patently false assertion
that McVeigh was a member of a militia
            group?



            18.
            Terry Nichols has been married twice, once to a Mexican
woman and once to a Filipina.
            Obviously, a man who marries women of color not once but
twice and has children with them can
            hardly be called a racist. Why has this fact, which clearly
precludes any racist or neo-Nazi
            involvement in the bombing of the kind implied by the
media, not been given any significant
            exposure at all? And why has the media ignored connections
between the Oklahoma City
            bombing and the very real, very racist Elohim City compound
in Arkansas, not to mention
            Andreas Strassmeir, grandson of one of the founders of the
Nazi party in Germany?



            19.
            Having allegedly just committed a coldly calculated,
carefully and meticulously planned mass
            murder, why did Timothy McVeigh then suddenly turn into a
Clouseau-like klutz and do
            everything but send up a flare to draw attention to
himself? Why did he go speeding out of the
            state at almost 100 mph in a yellow car with no license
plate, virtually guaranteeing that he would
            be stopped?



            20.
            Timothy McVeigh is a highly trained combat NCO who won a
Bronze Star for courage under fire
            in the Gulf. Having been stopped by a state trooper, being
armed with a pistol, and knowing that
            he now faced either execution or imprisonment for the rest
of his natural life, why did McVeigh
            make no move at all to defend himself or escape, instead
surrendering like a little lamb?



            21.
            FBI agents are said to have tracked down McVeigh's truck
rental agency by finding a vehicle
            identification number (VIN) on the truck's rear axle. This
axle was found either in the bomb
            crater, according to the mayor of Oklahoma City's initial
press statement, or three blocks away
            according to the later FBI version. Which statement is
true?



            22.
            There is another problem to the Ryder truck tale. No rear
axle on any vehicle manufactured in
            America is imprinted with a VIN, even after recent
legislation forcing manufacturers to place
            multiple VINS on the engine, firewall, and frame to
discourage chop shops. When queried, a
            spokesman for Ryder told reporters than it does not imprint
additional VINS on its trucks. The
            only conceivable number available on a rear axle is a part
number, but a part number couldn't
            lead to the identification of a specific vehicle. We have
here another case where the FBI version
            of events simply COULD NOT HAVE HAPPENED in the way the
Bureau claims it happened.
            Where did the VIN story come from? Why has it been created
and circulated by the media?



            23.
            Did McVeigh use fake I.D. or his real I.D. to rent the
truck? The FBI has relayed both stories as
            being true.



            24.
            The FBI detained and interrogated Timothy McVeigh's young
sister Jennifer and Terry Nichols'
            twelve year-old son. They announced in the media that both
of them were suspects and that
            Jennifer McVeigh was facing indictment and the death
penalty. These charges later vanished, and
            both young people were released. While undergoing harsh FBI
interrogation, Jennifer McVeigh
            was exposed to projections of shocking, graphic images of
bombing victims. What is the story
            here?



            25.
            Who is John Doe Number Two? Does he exist at all? The FBI
first conducted a nationwide
            manhunt for JD-2 over a period of several weeks. Then they
claimed that a U.S. Army soldier on
            leave, whose published photographs bear no resemblance
whatsoever to the photofits, was JD-2.
            Then they claimed for some months that JD-2 does not exist,
and that all the witnesses who saw
            him were mistaken. Now they are hedging again and say they
have an "open mind" about whether
            John Doe Number Two exists. What's the deal?



            26.
            In January of 1996, National Public Radio broadcast a
half-hour special containing interviews
            with half a dozen witnesses who personally saw John Doe
Number Two in the Ryder truck with
            Timothy McVeigh on the morning of the bombing. These
witnesses all had one thing in common;
            other than a cursory preliminary interview by the FBI they
had up until that time been approached
            by neither the prosecution nor the defense to appear as
witnesses at the trial. Why not? Will any
            witnesses who saw John Doe Number Two be called to testify?



            27.
            In the summer of 1995 a mysterious American named Daniel
Spiegelman was arrested in the
            Netherlands for trafficking in stolen diamonds and
antiques. In July of 1995 the Janet Reno
            Justice Department quietly applied for Spiegelman's
extradition to the United States IN
            CONNECTION WITH THE OKLAHOMA CITY BOMBING. This was
accompanied by
            representations at the highest level demanding that the
Netherlands courts hear the case in camera
            and that the proceedings be kept completely secret.

            Through his attorney Spiegelman fought extradition, a Dutch
judge refused to impose secrecy on
            the hearing, the media got hold of it, and Janet Reno
allegedly withdrew the extradition request,
            whereupon the entire bizarre episode vanished from public
view. No more media blackout in the
            OKC case has been more pervasive than the blackout imposed
over the name of Daniel
            Spiegelman; it is as if he has stepped off the face of the
planet.

            Who is Daniel Spiegelman? What connection does he have with
Oklahoma City? Is he John Doe
            Number Two? Does he know who John Doe Number Two is?



            28.
            FBI informant and star witness Michael Fortier, who admits
to trading his testimony for lenient
            sentencing on gun charges himself, claims that he and
Timothy McVeigh scouted out the Murrah
            building several weeks in advance looking for the BATF
offices therein. If that is true, why did
            Timothy McVeigh stop the Ryder truck at a gas station on
the morning of the bombing and ask
            directions to the building? And why did he park the truck
on the side of the building the farthest
            away from the BATF offices, when there was an available
parking lot which would have placed
            the truck bomb almost directly under the seventh-floor
windows of the BATF?



            29.
            Why was the reaction of the Clinton administration, blaming
right-wing radio talk shows for the
            incident and demanding the most draconian police state
legislation ever proposed in the United
            States, so swift and obviously organized? The air of
orchestration about the entire government
            response did not escape notice even at the time, and was
commented on by a number of
            observers across the political spectrum.

            A blizzard of OKC-inspired "domestic terrorism" bills were
rushed into Congress in a matter of
            days, some of them pre-written and already printed up
BEFORE THE BOMBING. These
            proposed laws cover everything from banning virtually all
privately owned firearms to unlimited
            and court-admissible Federal wiretaps to censorship of the
Internet to the suspension of habeas
            corpus in "terrorism" cases to the grotesque destruction of
the First Amendment advocated in
            Charles Schumer's bill H.R. 2580, which imposes a five-year
prison sentence for publicly
            engaging in "unseemly speculation" and publishing or
transmitting by wire or electronic means
            "baseless conspiracy theories regarding the Federal
government of the United States". Who
            decides what is a "baseless conspiracy theory'? Why, the
very same government, of course.

            How was a normally cumbersome, inefficient, and glacially
slow legislative branch able to move
            so quickly, so comprehensively, and so efficiently in
introducing these laws which will strip
            Americans of what remaining freedoms they have?



            30.
            Why did it take so unconscionably long for the trial of
Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols to
           begin?
