168 men, women and children would have been alive and going about their daily business on April 20, 1995, if the government of the United States had prosecuted the federal agents guilty of using excessive force in the raid on the Branch Davidian complex in Waco, Texas several years before.

Before Ruby Ridge and Waco, we could almost always count on our government to prosecute its own if they violated the rights of the citizens. If they had a bad apple who did something wrong, our government would always make it right, prosecute the guilty and make reparations. That policy ended with the Ruby Ridge tragedy and cover-up, and it was compounded with the Waco massacre.

I don't know what changed in this government's mindset, but I do know for a fact that Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols carried out the attack on the federal Murrah Building April 19, 1995 because of the cover-up and injustice following the Waco investigations. That is an indisputable fact, because McVeigh admitted it.

The U.S. Media points to McVeigh every time they bring up the OKC bombing, making the TV-numbed audience think he just got up one day and decided to kill as many federal government workers as he could, but that didn't happen. Something motivated McVeigh to do what he did, and that is what we all need to remember on this 10th anniversary of that attack.

No, I do not in any way believe McVeigh was right in what he did. I cannot fathom how you can reconcile killing a bunch of innocent American citizens working in a federal building, in return for barbecuing 80 innocent American citizens in Waco. That just doesn't compute in my mind. If McVeigh and Nichols had hunted down and killed the government agents who actually made the decisions and took part in the actions, then I'd give them more slack.

Sure, there is compelling evidence that McVeigh's plan had been ratted-out to the feds before his intended attack. That evidence strongly suggests the feds shadowed McVeigh to the extent they not only allowed the attack to take place, but that they planted explosives inside the building on the main support columns to make the attack that much more effective and deadly. You can call me crazy if you want, but the explosion analysis by retired Air Force General Partin is not something you can ignore if you are honestly searching for the truth. That ANFO bomb in the rented Ryder truck parked outside just didn't have the power to do the damage the feds claimed it did.

There were so many similarities between the OKC bombing and the Kennedy assassination. Lee Harvey Oswald was captured right away after charging into a movie theater without paying -- but it was all the way across town! The cops and press immediately named him as the assassin out of all the people in Dallas/Fort Worth. How?? Based on what evidence?? McVeigh got stopped speeding on a freeway miles from OKC after the bombing, out of all the people traveling that highway -- again -- right away. Isn't that just simply amazing? Yeah, right.

So, yes, I do believe renegade government agents were involved in both cases, but that is not the point of this article. The fact is that McVeigh & Nichols did what they did for their part because this corrupt government didn't do what they should have done following the investigations and congressional hearings looking into the Waco massacre.

And that is just a reminder.
