FBI Chided for OKC Bomb Investigation
A two-year congressional inquiry into the Oklahoma City bombing concludes that the FBI didn't fully investigate whether other suspects may have helped Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols with the deadly 1995 attack, allowing questions to linger...
The report says the inadequacy of the bureau's work was exposed two years ago when some bombing evidence overlooked for 10 years was discovered in a home linked to Nichols that had been searched repeatedly by agents.
"The Oklahoma City bombing case was the largest case the FBI worked on before 9/11," (FBI spokesman Richard) Kolko said. "Agents at virtually every office, domestically and overseas, covered thousands of leads. Every bit of information was investigated and reviewed."
~If amateurs like McVeigh and Nichols with their own money were able to build a bomb as large as this one, wouldn't idiots--forget terrorists--all over America be blowing up stuff for fun? (In the years before 1995.) Deserted farms, mines, forests, ponds, garbage dumps, quarries, junked machinery, etc. The anomalous seismic activity from these explosions by 'hobbiests' must have driven the earthquake experts crazy.
