OKCSubmariner, thank you for staying on this topic. I hope that FR remains a vehicle for serious exploration of OKC and WTC conspiracies, despite the wartime conditions.

Carry_Okie, thanks for the ping from another thread.

I am looking for a plausible theory regarding the OKC bombing, that would explain the admission of guilt and silence on the particulars by McVeigh. He just doesn't fit the role of a Middle Eastern patsy.

One can assume that there was a steady stream of warnings about the WTC bombing, since the first attempt. Unless there was a warning that had pointed to the method of attack and the date, what could the FBI possibly do, short of closing down the WTC for good?

Good point. How about contacting the NSA and doing a retrospective screen against references to the WTC in their vaunted and illegal Echelon system? Then there is moving defense resources toward Manhattan for purposes of rapid response. Neither happened. That's just off the top of my head and I know nothing of the possibilities.
