True. That case went amazingly smoothly and triumphantly for their side. Haven’t read that book you mentioned.
We really cannot fully believe anyone in the government or especially the intelligence community. If they tell you they’re wet because it’s raining outside, check the weather report and also put your hand outside to make sure.
It is an astonishing book. Jayna Davis isn’t a conspiracy theorist, she was a well established investigative journalist, in a time when those kinds of things still existed to any degree.
She was doing real time investigation of this while it was going on, and she definitely went places the administration and the agencies didn’t want her to go. She documented meticulously, and it is chilling.
I don’t know anyone who has read that book who still believes Timothy McVeigh and his army buddy were the ones who really did all that. They were, of course, involved, but..it wasn’t just them.
I have re-read it at least three times. It is a remarkable book.
