Raw Story
"Long-secret security tapes showing the chaos immediately after the
1995 bombing of the Oklahoma City federal building are blank in the
minutes before the blast and appear to have been edited, an attorney
who obtained the recordings said Sunday. 'The real story is what's
missing,' said Jesse Trentadue, a Salt Lake City attorney who obtained
the recordings through the federal Freedom of Information Act as part
of an unofficial inquiry he is conducting into the April 19, 1995,
bombing that killed 168 people and injured hundreds more. Trentadue
gave copies of the tapes to the Oklahoman newspaper, which posted them
online and provided copies to the Associated Press." (09/28/09)

Dear All;
On that note of the release of the edited tapes this url

goes to a Gore Vidal op-ed he wrote about Timothy McVeigh and the events surrounding Timothy McVeigh and Ruby Ridge and Waco. It is a nice scholarly article as only Gore Vidal can write.
Please note he wrote the op ed at the time of Timothy McVeigh's execution as he had been asked to be one of the 5 witnesses Timothy asked for.
Gore Vidal's article does attempt to answer the unanswered question of - WHY?

Thanks, Ron. I think I had read it, but it's a very nice article, worth
rereading.
