If you had seen the size of the crater that was there, you would truely believe that the truck bomb did the damage

Thanks for the first hand account. Could you describe the location of the crater relative to this photo?

Well, your photo was taken several days after the bombing. At the point this photo was taken, several days worth of debris had been removed. The crater had pretty much been covered in for the sake of bringing in those heavy cranes. My recollection is that the crater was between the two large cranes, but closer to the eastern most large crane in your photo. The first large crane from the left hand side of the photo. In the area where the most extensive damage is located. Again, from this photo, you can see that the western most portion of the building, (right hand side) is still mostly in tact. And from the south side (back of the building) it almost appeared that nothing had happened.
