I've read through alot of the posts, but I have an answered question. Was the purpose of bombing the Murrah building just to show disdain for the United States by McVeigh? or was purpose of the bombing, maybe caused by McVeigh, maybe not, to hide, destroy, or kill something/someone already inside the building?

The federal evidence from the BATF/FBI raid at Waco was stored in the Murrah building. Also, Oklahoma City was the federal district headquarters for the DEA investigations into drug dealing in and around the Mena, Arkansas airport.

DEA suffered more casualties than any of the other federal agencies that day, though some of their agents were in fact out of the office at a team golf tournament.
