Top
ten reasons to question
the official story
By: Holland O. Van den Nieuwenhof (with permission)
1. John Doe #2 And Other Accomplices
Timothy McVeigh is supposed to be
the only one who drove the Ryder truck full of explosives up to the Murrah
building and detonated it. But the government only produced one witness during
McVeigh’s trial to place him in Oklahoma City. That witness,
Daina Bradley, lost her children, her mother and
her leg in the bombing. Under cross-examination, she admitted that she saw
McVeigh with another man, the fabled John Doe #2, in the Ryder truck. Numerous
(
1 2 ) other witnesses state that they saw McVeigh
with other perpetrators the day of the bombing. There are also numerous other
witness accounts of McVeigh accompanied by other men during his preparation for
the bombing and even when he rented the Ryder truck. In some cases, these
suspects have been identified by witnesses and yet the government claims that
McVeigh was the sole actor in the tragedy of April 19,
1995.
2. Why Was The ATF AWOL
Paramedic Tiffany Bible, who was on the scene within
five minutes, has stated in an
affidavit
that agents of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF) told her that
they were not in their office that morning. EMT Katherine Mallet also overheard
one ATF agent say to another, “Is that why we got the page not to come in
today?” Bruce Shaw, as interviewed on KFOR-TV, was also told by ATF agents
that they had been paged not to come in to work. ATF agents initially denied
these claims and now variously claim that one of their agents was in a
free-falling elevator (this has been
disproved),
or that they had been on an all-night stakeout or that they had been at a golf
tournament. As they try to sort out their lies, all we want to know is: did the
ATF receive a warning, and if so, why did they not pass it on to others in the
Murrah building?
3. Other Bombs Going Off
Several
survivors vividly recall that the Murrah building
began to tremble and pitch before the truck bomb blew off the façade of the
building. Jane Graham of HUD felt an earthquake sensation and felt the building
pitch back and forth. A warning was yelled out to get under the desks, which
saved the lives of Graham and everyone else in the room when everything
collapsed 8-10 seconds after the initial tremors. Jack Gobin of the Dept. of
Agriculture also felt an earthquake sensation and got under his desk before the
collapse. Michael Hinton, a federal agent, was on a bus several blocks
away when two separate blast waves nearly tilted the bus over. Given that the
blast wave of an ANFO bomb travels at 1,100 feet per second, it is
inconceivable that one event could be responsible for the 10 second gap between
the episodes. The
seismograph at the University of Oklahoma also
records two separate episodes, 10 seconds apart.
4. Experts Refute The Official Story
Air Force General Benton Partin, who
for years headed the Air Force Armaments Laboratory, examined evidence of the
bombing and issued a
report concluding that, “the massive destruction
was primarily the result of four demolition charges placed at critical
structural points at the third floor level.” Dr. Sam Cohen, inventor of the
neutron bomb, also agrees,
stating,
“I believe that the demolitions charges in the building were placed inside at
certain key concrete columns did the primary damage to the Murrah Federal
Building,” and that, “It would have been absolutely impossible and against the
laws of nature for a truck full of fertilizer and fuel oil… no matter how much
was used… to bring the building down.” So who planted those charges, and
why have they not been brought to justice?
5. More Bombs Found In The Building
There were several additional
evacuations of the Murrah building after the initial damage due to what were
later attributed to baseless bomb scares. But several witnesses have declared
that real, unexploded ordnance was discovered in the wreckage of the Murrah
building and that this ordnance was recovered by the bomb squad. OKC Fire
Marshal Dick Miller
reported that a second bomb had been found with a
timer set to go off ten minutes after the first explosions, apparently to
target the responders. The OK Highway Patrol
dispatch logs state that a second bomb was found,
as does a Dept. of Defense Atlantic Command
log
which states that, “A second bomb was disarmed, and third bomb was
evacuated.” Nurse
Toni Garret has reported that four rescue workers
had told her that another bomb had been found set to detonate ten minutes after
the first detonations. The official story says that these bomb scares were
due to a suspicious briefcase, a gimmick alarm clock or an inert training
device used by the ATF. Recently OETA, the public broadcasting channel in
Oklahoma, reported that the bomb scares were contrived in order to make the
media pull back from the scene, even though many victims were abandoned during
these evacuations. As the various agencies and mainstream media outlets try to
sort out their stories, all we ask is: who planted these bombs and why is
the government lying about them?
6. Informants Told The Government The Murrah Building Was Going To Be Bombed
ATF informant
Carol Howe had infiltrated Elohim City, a white
separatist community in eastern Oklahoma, in the months before the
bombing. She reported to her handlers that extremists were plotting to
bomb federal buildings and assassinate government officials and that they were
making reconnaissance trips to OKC. She has named Andreas Strassmeier,
Michael Brescia, Dennis Mahon and Peter and Tony Ward as probable
accomplices to Tim McVeigh. It should be noted that McVeigh placed a
phone call to Andreas Strassmeier at Elohim City shortly before the
bombing. Her testimony was ruled inadmissible and an ABC 20/20 special on
her story was cancelled following a call made to ABC by the Dept. of Justice, according
to the show’s producer. Furthermore another informant,
Cary
Gagan, was granted a letter of immunity by the Dept. of Justice for
his work in reporting on a terrorist group that was plotting to destroy the
Alfred P. Murrah Building. He warned his handlers that he had been delivering
explosives for this group and that he had been sent on scouting missions to the
Murrah building.
7. Foreknowledge
A U.S. Army nurse reported to the
Oklahoma Bombing Investigation Committee that
a
call was placed to her office at Walter Reed Army Hospital three or
four days before the bombing. The “Pentagon… or congressional liaison to the
Governor of Oklahoma’s office” requested information on the “triage for victims
of blast overpressure.” The nurse’s supervisor corroborates this statement. This
was followed up by a second phone call to a Colonel in the office who has
refused to release the notes of the conversation. The colonel was never
subpoenaed nor were the phone records for the governor’s office. Just what was
this liaison to the state government preparing for?
8. Bomb Squad At The Federal Courthouse Before The Bombing
Randall Yount met an acquaintance of
his at the bombing scene who was a member of the OK Co. Bomb Squad. This
man told Yount, “Yeah, we’ve been down here since early this morning
looking. We got word there was going to be a bomb, and we thought it was
going to be at the courthouse. We went over and couldn’t find
anything.” Renee Cooper, Attorney Dan Adomitis, J.D. Reed with the Ok. Co.
Assessor’s Office, Norma Joslin of the Ok. Co. Board of Elections and private
investigator Claude Criss
all
report seeing the bomb squad at the federal courthouse that morning,
before the bombing.
9. The Extra Leg
According to Stephen Jones,
McVeigh's attorney, State Medical Examiner Vernon Jordan has stated, “We have
eight people with traumatically amputated left legs, and we have nine left
legs.” Dr. Jordan also added that the chances that someone was buried with two
right legs to be zero. Chief Pathologist for Northern Ireland T.K.
Marshall had performed autopsies on 2,500 bombing victims in his time and has
stated, “There is never an unknown victim.” One must assume that this leg
belonged to a perpetrator close enough to the bomb for his body to be
“disrupted” to such an extent, leaving only a leg behind. So who was this
person?
10. What Is On The Surveillance Tapes
There were dozens of video
surveillance cameras that recorded what was going on the morning of the
bombing, yet almost none of these have been released and none show what
transpired with the Ryder truck at the Murrah building. Most recently, the
government
has claimed that all the cameras pointed at the
Murrah building, in many different buildings and maintained by different
offices and businesses, were having their tapes changed at the same time, 9:02
a.m. This is ludicrous, and insulting to the memory of those who perished
in the bombing. What do they have to hide?
Demand the release of the surveillance tapes!
Many of these questions could be put
to rest by the release of the dozens of security tapes in and around the Murrah
building on April 19, 1995. These tapes were seized by the FBI
immediately after the bombing and only a select few have been released to the
public. Furthermore, dozens more are known to have been seized from
convenience stores along the route of the Ryder truck from Kansas to
Oklahoma. If there is nothing to hide, all the perpetrators brought to
justice and the case closed, why does the government continue to hold these
tapes under the seal of “national security?”
Speak and write to your local and national representatives to ask for the
release of these tapes which will ultimately let the American people decide for
themselves if the official account of the bombing is true or not. And if
it is not true, we must demand accountability for those who lied.
Accountability is the only way to ensure that attacks like these do not happen
again. And it is the only way to honor the 169 men, women and children
whose lives were cut short that day.
