Rumors
Rumors have surfaced about possible tapes of the OKC bombing that show multiple participants.
A Secret Service document written shortly after the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing described security video footage of the attack and witness testimony that suggested Timothy McVeigh may have had accomplices at the scene.
Wouldn't surprise me at all. I've never believed he acted alone. Remember John Doe #2....who bears a striking resemblance to this guy?
Coincidence? Maybe. But you know, the radical right and the radical Islamists share some pretty important common goals. Namely, the destruction of the American government and the Jews. It's not so far-fetched that they would form an alliance. And there are at least some indications that McVeigh & Nichols were in places where they could've met....McVeigh's service in Gulf War I and Nichols' Phillipines trip for example.
Now this could all be 'smoke and mirrors' by Nichols' attorneys in an attempt to avoid the death penalty for their client. But I for one would like to see this seriously investigated.
I'm not so sure we're ready for what that investigation would find.
