Well, given the reference to McVeigh, and McVeigh's near worship of the Turner Diaries, it seems to me that this could easily be the work of some group of neonazi sympathizers.
McVeigh, as the article points out, was executed in Terre Haute, and it wouldn't surprise me if this was a reaction by some nutjob to that execution.
Those who aren't familiar with The Turner Diaries may not be aware of the intense antisemitic nature of that book and of those who espouse the sentiments expressed in it. McVeigh certainly was, though.
It seems a long stretch to me to put this on some mythical Muslim extremists, who are unlikely to dedicate a terrorist act like this one to McVeigh. There are, however, numerous folks who might just do so.
Just musing....
