So why did McVeigh remain mute? Why has Terry Nichols remained mute? Not saying any of this is untrue, but it seems odd that for two guys trying to make a point, this would be one heck of an exclamation point.

Your questions are good ones and are explained in the book satisfactorily.

McVeigh was a hero in Gulf War I. He later washed out of training as a Green Beret. He came to hate our government to what he perceived was horrible things we were doing to civilians in Iraq. He also hated them for Ruby Ridge and Waco. McVeigh wanted to die as a martyr. In his mind, he did.

Jayna's story must get out! The documentation and witnesses she has are incredible.

Personally think that both men wbere threatened that their families would be harmed.

Reason I say that is at Nichols trial some things were supposed to come out and all of a sudden Nichols said he feared for the safety of his son. In fact, he was supposed to testify at one point but that was withdrawn.

Then he doesn't get the death penalty by a jury that convicted him right away? That whole trial made no sense.

Maybe to keep their families from being beheaded if they talked?

Because, as a veteran of Iraq I, he did not want to be connected to an Iraqii terrorist.

Where do you think the money came from.
