I think you're right. McVeigh either did not know it or did not want to admit that he had been used. He was a cold and somewhat sociopathic person, I think, but even folks like that have their pride.

As for the reason that this is coming up now, I think the info and the interest have been out there for a long time. But it's only with the information emerging from the investigation of the WTC events that we are seeing everything that was suppressed by Clinton's regime, and now it's finally beginning to come together publicly.

The odd thing is that I was abroad when OKC happened, and everybody, even in Europe, knew right away that it was Islamic terrorists. And then, suddenly, Bill Clinton emerged with a member of the VRWC.

This is not to say McVeigh was not involved in it. But he clearly didn't do it alone, and it probably wasn't his idea, simply because he does not appear to have been somebody who was capable of making the plans and setting it up (to say nothing of the fact that all of tactics had Middle Eastern methods written all over them). Look for more to come out; it may take a while for the major news source pick this up, but it's happening.

One thing that I continue to wonder about is the role of the FBI in all of this. McVeigh was caught so quickly and tied to the Ryder truck, which made law enforcement look great. The other evidence strongly suggesting ME involvement was still not as clear-cut as the evidence implicating McVeigh in the actual bombing. Clinton latched on to McVeigh and took off immediately on the hate radio/militia thing, and got the political momentum for new laws allowing the FBI to do more surveillance on the militia types. So, it's entirely plausible that Clinton never even knew about the evidence of ME involvement - the FBI covered it all up to make themselves look good and get the new laws they wanted passed. Then, the FBI went on to cover up TWA 800, to keep their @sses covered from OKC. When Ashcroft, Mueller, and company came in, suddenly all this new FBI evidence came out that was never made available to McVeigh's lawyers.

Things that make you go hmmmmmm......
