Think of Mc Veigh as being a dedicated and talented undercover agent, led to believe he was an important part of an operation against the enemy he'd faced in Iraq, working for a *good guy* federal agency rather than the *jackboots* of the FBI or BATF. And that any of McVeigh's dabbling with right-wing militia or KKK groups he'd have loathed for their unmilitary lack of discipline and structure would have been a part of his cover, as directed by the case officer controlling him, and who would have introduced him to other *undercover operators* like Strassmeyer. That would also explain McVeigh and his friend Sp/4 Mitch Whitmire suddenly withdrawing their applications for Special Forces *Q-school* training after a private interview with an unidentified officer. They may have thought they were working at something beyond Special Forces operational activity, or had been told that they'd be given a later opportunity to attend the SF course after their Very Important Mission was concluded. That's classic *black operation* recruitment and utilization- which they'd have known if they'd gone on to become SF Operations Sergeants.

I may be naive, but isn't it a bit of a stretch to think that he kept such a hideous conspiracy secret to his execution? What did he have to gain by keeping quiet?

As it's worked out, both of McVeigh's sisters, Jennifer and Patty, are still alive. I suspect that was at least a part of the deal. And if anything ever happens to them, a suicide, hit-and-run accident, a plane crash or a death during the commission of a robbery, just as examples of things that have happened that have happened to other OKC witnesses, then don't be too surprised at a release of additional information on Mc Veigh and who he thought he was working for- Andy Strassmeier was reportedly escorted out of the US across the Mexican border by federal agents two days after the bombing, and had been followed and reported entering a BATF office through an *Employees Only* entrance that required ID passcard access.

But the anniversary of McVeigh's execution is also coming up on 11 June. Perhaps we'll see a bit more by then.

And how do you KNOW he was executed? If he was, maybe he was told he wouldn't be, really, that it would just look good, and he'd be given a new face, new ID, ETC....

Sound crazy? So did the rest of this a couple of months ago to most folks.

What McVeigh had to gain by keeping quiet was the lives of his family, which he placed high value on. He was also a very disciplined soldier and placed value on his conduct, however misguided it was. Remember, after Waco and the Branch Davidian slaughter, he saw our federal agencies as true enemies of the state. McVeigh lived in a black and white world governed by agencies of grey.
