The ADL survey also found that many hard-core militiamen believe that the United States Government itself conducted the Oklahoma City bombing to create an excuse for further depriving citizens of their constitutional rights.

One doesn't need to be a "hard-core militia" type to realize the demolition of the Murrah Bldg. wasn't caused by a truck full of ANFO 20 feet away. The alleged method used, 20 seperate plastic drums of the stuff is the absolutely WRONG way to get a coherent explosion of ANFO which needs concentration, not air space between the containers. Further more, a truck bomb would create a circular blast pattern, not the linear left to right pattern seen & caused by shape charges planted on the structural columns inside the building. Brig. General USAF (Ret.) Ben Partin, who designed & tested bombs while in the Air Force wrote in a letter to various Congressmen, "I can say, with a high level of confidence, that the damage pattern on the reinforced concrete superstructure could not possibly have been attained from the single truck bomb without supplementing demolition charges at some of the reinforced column bases. The total incompatibility with a single truck bomb lies in the fact that either some of the columns collapsed that should not have collapsed or some of the columns are still standing that should have collapsed and did not." According to Charles Mankin, head of the Geologic Survey at the University of Oklahoma, referring to seismograph records of April 19, 1995 "We had two events, ten seconds apart. The first one coincided in time with the explosion at the Federal Building." A truck bomb did explode outside of the Fed Bldg as a cover & distraction for the real demolition job inside. McVeigh is a dupe, a fall guy, about on par with Lee H. Oswald in Dallas, November 23, 1963. The benefits to the statist monstrosity & it's quasi-official allies like the ADL of the deaths of 168 people have been enormous. This in itself does not prove government agencies are responsible for the bombing, but combined with the simple fact that the damage could not possibly have occured the way they are claiming it did, it adds up to certainty as to whom the real bombers are. Qui bono?
