The Top 50 Liberal Media Bias Examples. [#7] 1995 Oklahoma City Bombing: In an example of jumping to conclusions — as long as such jumping smears the right — the media has for years claimed that convicted Oklahoma City bomber Timothy McVeigh was a "Christian terrorist." This is an absurd claim, though, because McVeigh did not perpetrate his crimes in the name of religion nor was he a proselytizing Christian. He was an anti-government activist and did not use religion to justify any of his actions. This claim is still extant and even came up recently in a piece by lefty journalist Juan Williams. McVeigh was also part of the mythic "white militias" fear that the media and President Bill Clinton drummed up in the 1990s with little to no evidence.

1995 Oklahoma City bomber Timothy McVeigh was a Muslim sympathizer. From the beginning, the media had portrayed McVeigh and co-conspirator Terry Nichols as extremist, "right-wing," Christian nut-cases. [...] But The Federalist points out that McVeigh wasn't a Christian — he identified himself as an agnostic. Though raised as a Roman Catholic, McVeigh stated in his 2002 biography American Terrorist that he did not believe in a hell and that science was his religion. In June 2001, a day before the execution, McVeigh wrote a letter to the Buffalo News identifying himself as agnostic. More than that, McVeigh was a Muslim sympathizer. In her bestseller, The Third Terrorist, investigative journalist Jayna Davis presents the evidence showing that Timothy McVeigh was a front man for Middle Eastern terrorists, and that a third co-conspirator was an Iraqi — the mysterious "John Doe" who was never found. Davis says the evidence was ignored and dismissed because the Clinton Administration didn't want to go to war with Iraq, the likely culprit, and wanted to blame the attack on domestic right-wingers for political reasons.

Oklahoma City Bombing Investigation: To Demonize Conservatives, Constitutionalists & Christians. For the Marxists who have infiltrated the American political system and their captive media, the official account of the Oklahoma City bombing was the exclamation point purposely and expeditiously placed at the end of the paragraph that included Waco and Ruby Ridge. The arrest and conviction of Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols was the much-needed mechanism of the Progressive left against the Christian Conservative right during that period of the 1990s. It continues to serve as the cornerstone for the nefarious agenda that has re-categorized Christians, Conservatives and Constitutionalists as enemies of the state, using the blood of the innocent dead and maimed. We must not forget that this push for demonization was managed by the Clinton administration which also included Hillary Rodham Clinton, and the Department of Justice under Janet Reno. Its political and ideological importance cannot be understated, and has become much clearer for those who understand and are paying attention to history.

$10M upgrade to OKC Memorial and Museum helps visitors mark 20th anniversary. The National Memorial and Museum, built to commemorate the terror attack on a federal building on April 19, 1995, is taking strides towards the future, while preserving the memory of one of America's darkest days.

McVeigh regarded bombing that killed 168 people a failure. Timothy McVeigh considered the bombing of the Oklahoma City federal building 20 years ago somewhat of a failure, viewed himself as a "Paul Revere-type messenger" and even suggested his defense team should receive $800,000 from the government, according to an archive of documents donated by the convicted bomber's lead attorney.

OKC Bombshell Implicates Feds In Murrah Blast. Only moments after an enormous blast blew away most of the facade and a full quarter of the eastern end of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City in 1995, the FBI and Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (BATF) began to release evidence implicating two men, and two men only, who they claimed were solely responsible. The evidence later showed that Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols had confessed to the impossible. At first, several independent investigators came forward to complain that there was an obvious cover-up. Now they call it the "ongoing cover-up of the cover-up." And now, even the new OKC museum contradicts the official theory of what happened on April 19. Officials in charge at the time still refuse to discuss anything other than the manufactured spin: [...]

The Dipole Might Project: The Dipole Might (DM) project, initiated in 1990, provided for the first comprehensive, scientific analysis of large scale (50 - 5,000 pounds) vehicle bombs. It is a multi-national endeavor which uses a computer-aided design program to analyze various effects of vehicle bomb blasts. The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms (BATF) sponsored a series of controlled vehicular explosions.

Man claims tampering in case over bombing videos. [Utah attorney Jesse] Trentadue says the agency is refusing to release videos that show a second person was with Timothy McVeigh when he parked a truck outside the Oklahoma City federal building and detonated a bomb that killed 168 people.

Utah lawyer claims FBI withholding evidence in OKC bombing, brother's death. A trial has opened in Utah over documents and videotape of the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing, and whether the FBI is refusing to hand it over. Jesse Trentadue, who claims his brother was killed in an interrogation by federal agents when he was mistaken for a bombing co-conspirator, is suing for the records. The FBI said Monday it has provided everything he asked for and everything it has. [...] Trentadue claims his requests under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) for surveillance tapes from around the bomb site haven't been fulfilled.

FBI Defends Search for Oklahoma City Bombing Video. The FBI thoroughly searched its archives and found no evidence that more videos of the Oklahoma City bombing exist, agency employees told a judge Monday [7/28/2014] in a trial that has rekindled questions about whether any others were involved in the 1995 attack.

Trial to begin over video of 1995 Oklahoma City bombing. The case is at the heart of Jesse Trentadue's quest to explain his brother's mysterious jail cell death 19 years ago, which has rekindled long-dormant questions about whether others were involved in the deadly 1995 blast.

They Are Lying to You About the Oklahoma City Bombing. Jesse's brother, Kenneth Michael Trentadue, was tortured to death in federal custody in the summer of 1995. And it turns out the reason, the probable reason anyway that he was tortured to death in federal custody, was because it was a case of mistaken identity. They were trying to get him to admit that he was a guy named Richard Lee Guthrie, who was one of the John Does suspected in the Oklahoma City bombing. And Kenneth Trentadue, unfortunately, was just at the wrong place at the wrong time with the wrong color hair, the wrong truck, the wrong dragon tattoo on his arm, and they were just convinced that he was Richard Guthrie, and he paid for it with his life.

Terrance Yeakey Truth. Sergeant Terrance Yeakey was the first to arrive on the scene that terrible day and saved the lives of (8) eight people from the rubble of the building and the horrific effects of the explosion. The article says Yeakey committed suicide because he was living emotional pain because he could not do more to help the people injured in the bombing, and that he was suffering from intense survivor guilt which he was unable to manage. But others in Oklahoma City, including the family of Terrance Yeakey, claim that his death was not a suicide at all, but a brutal murder, and indicate that local law enforcement were complicit in covering up this murder.

A Noble Lie: Oklahoma City Bombing. The first feature length documentary to examine the Oklahoma City bombing in the light of new and suppressed evidence that proves the official story to be false and that Timothy McVeigh was not the sole perpetrator on that terrible April 19th, 1995.

Oklahoma City Bombing Families Believe FBI Knew. There is no doubt that Timothy McVeigh was guilty, says [Ambrose] Evans-Pritchard, but he believes that nothing like the full story has ever come out. Why? Because the government, although it interviewed over 20,000 people, failed to call many knowledgeable witnesses during the trial, witnesses who could discuss collaborators with McVeigh and Nichols. He makes a strong case that the reason the government covered up — and continues to cover up — is that bumbling FBI agents knew in advance that the bombing plot was afoot but failed to stop it. He discloses what he calls "the smoking gun of the Oklahoma bombing," a memo written only two days after the bombing. The memo discusses the FBI's debriefing of a Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms undercover agent who infiltrated a neo-Nazi paramilitary group where men close to McVeigh talked about using violence against the U.S. government.

Jon Rappoport Interview with OKC Bombing Grand Juror. As in the JFK assassination, disturbing evidence of a different sort of murder scenario from the official version has emerged; and typically it has been relegated to the "conspiracy file" by the mainstream press. Very serious questions about bombs other than the ammonium nitrate truck bomb have surfaced. McVeigh himself in some eyes begins to appear as the dupe, the patsy left holding the bag. Key stories about federal law enforcement agencies having advance warning of a bombing in Oklahoma City are gaining credibility. Researchers on the scene in Oklahoma City are talking about the FBI intimidating witnesses and thereby shaping a false version of events.

Oklahoma City Bombing Questions. "Norma," a witness who worked in an office building just down the street from the Federal building, told reporter Sherry Koonce what she saw prior to the explosion: "The day was fine, everything was normal when I arrived for work at about 7:45 a.m. There was some talk about the bomb squad among the employees at our office. We wondered what it was doing in our parking lot. Around nine I heard and felt a huge explosion. Then someone said it had to be a bomb, and we all knew. I remembered the bomb squad in our parking lot and knew what had happened." "Norma" has since quit her job, gone into hiding and refused to speak again to any reporters or investigators. So have a number of other people who saw the heavily armed and equipped bomb squad in the area up to three hours before the blast. Why?

Deceiving America -- More Witness Deaths. According to the official government story, which the news media accepted without question, the bombing in Oklahoma City, at the Alfred P. Murrah Building on April 19, 1995, was the work of American dissidents bent on a violent overthrow of the government. Congress responded by immediately enacting legislation to give the government unprecedented latitude with the invasion of individual privacy. All evidence actually points to a well planned, sophisticated government operation put into motion months earlier, with a massive cover-up controlled by the U. S. Justice Department, and carried through and beyond the "Star Chamber" charade of trials in Denver in 1997.

The Legacy Of The Oklahoma City Bombing. [Scroll down] General Parton clearly proved that the explosive devices that brought down the building were shaped charges of C-4 Plastic and not Ammonium Nitrate. I also interviewed a gentlemen at the nearby Classen High School museum (1½ block from the Murrah Bldg.) who was in the museum the day of the explosions and he was very sure that the first explosion (Am. Nitrate Bomb) could be heard like a loud boom but that the second explosion was a sharp crack bang which shook the museum bldg. and broke several glass windows in the museum. I worked with a group in Ok. City to try to replicate the concrete skeleton of the Murrah Building to prove that an Am. Nitrate bomb could not have destroyed the concrete columns in the building but was not able to muster the funds to do so. The positive proof that the root cause of the explosion was not the Am. Nitrate bomb was the fact that the entire Murrah Building debris was hauled away and buried in nearby El Reno at the U.S. Army Reservation and marked "restricted area".

New OKC Revelations Spotlight FBI Involvement In Bombing. New claims by Oklahoma City Bombing conspirator Terry Nichols that Timothy McVeigh was being steered by a high-level FBI official are supported by a plethora of evidence that proves McVeigh did not act alone and that authorities had prior warnings and were complicit in the bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah building.

The Oklahoma City Bombing Case Revelations. The OKC bombing was a failed federal sting operation that was, and still is, being covered up by federal officials and bureaucrats. Officials had prior warnings from domestic and Islamic terror groups and foreign governments including West Germany and Israel. But the officials also had their own prior warnings because of intelligence they had gathered from informants and provocateurs that U.S. government agencies had planted within the groups responsible for carrying out the OKC bombing. The government officials and agents involved are criminally and civilly liable because they did not have adequate fail-safes built in to warn the public or preempt the OKC bombing if things got out of control. Since they used provocateurs, they had a moral and legal responsibility to set up and use these fail-safes but they did not. Furthermore, some of these officials and agents criminally obstructed justice and perjured themselves in court and criminally withheld evidence to maintain a cover up and protect themselves from civil and criminal liability for their negligence.

Was Saddam the Man Behind McVeigh? [Scroll down] Suffice it to say that there is evidence of Iraqi involvement in at least one and perhaps all three of most deadly terrorist attacks in the United States to date. It may or may not prove dispositive, but it can no longer safely be ignored.

Govt Faces Trial Re: Missing Tapes — Terry Nichols Confessed to FBI of Middle Eastern Operation — Likely Iraqi. No matter what you think we know about the bombing of the Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City in 1995, U.S. District Judge Clark Waddoups acknowledged that the government has not complied with Freedom of Information Act request for specific tapes of the Murrah, surrounding buildings and the dash-cam of the police traffic stop of Timothy McVeigh 90 minutes after the bombing. If the requested tapes are ever released there are hopes they will show a bombing suspect or suspects who remain(s) unidentified or perhaps one has been identified as Hussain al-Hussaini.

Newly-Discovered FBI Memo Supports Previous Claims of Iraqi Involvement in OKC Bombing. The once-classified memo, according to an article published Tuesday by The Center for Public Integrity, was discovered by Jesse Trentadue, a Utah lawyer I interviewed in September 2009 about the mysterious disappearance of surveillance tapes from downtown Oklahoma City. He has spent years researching the Oklahoma City case trying to prove a connection between the terrorist bombing and the death of his brother in an Oklahoma prison in the summer of 1995.

New Oklahoma City Bombing Trial Set for Spring 2014. A federal judge in Utah ruled today that a trial will be held to resolve a long-running legal battle between Jesse Trentadue and the FBI over videotape footage recorded in downtown Oklahoma City April 19, 1995 — footage the Salt Lake City attorney believes will help him unravel a mystery almost two decades old. The mystery in this case surrounds the death of Jesse Trentadue's brother, Kenneth Trentadue, who died under suspicious circumstances while in custody at the U.S. Bureau of Prisons Federal Transfer Center in Oklahoma City several months after the Oklahoma City Bombing.

Memo suggests FBI had mole inside ABC News in 1990s. A once-classified FBI memo reveals that the bureau treated a senior ABC News journalist as a potential confidential informant in the 1990s, pumping the reporter to ascertain the source of a sensational but uncorroborated tip that the network had obtained during its early coverage of the Oklahoma City bombing. The journalist, whose name is not disclosed in the document labeled "secret," not only cooperated but provided the identity of a confidential source, according to the FBI memo — a possible breach of journalistic ethics if he or she did not have the source's permission.

Shielding the Enemy. A mere 20 years ago, responding to pressure from then-President Clinton to de-emphasize Arab international terrorism, FBI head Louis Freeh shifted the agency's focus from foreign terrorists to domestic terrorists or "rightwing extremists." As a direct consequence, 40 boxes of evidence from the first World Trade Center attack in 1993 that would have revealed valuable information about Al Qaeda operations were never reviewed and key evidence, including the presence of Arab nationals at U.S. flight schools, was ignored. In the same way, serious evidence of Middle Eastern involvement in the Oklahoma City bombing that claimed 168 lives, injured more than 680 people and damaged 324 buildings within a 16 block radius was ignored.

The Top 50 Liberal Media Bias Examples. [#7] 1995 Oklahoma City Bombing: In an example of jumping to conclusions — as long as such jumping smears the right — the media has for years claimed that convicted Oklahoma City bomber Timothy McVeigh was a "Christian terrorist." This is an absurd claim, though, because McVeigh did not perpetrate his crimes in the name of religion nor was he a proselytizing Christian. [... ] McVeigh was also part of the mythic "white militias" fear that the media and President Bill Clinton drummed up in the 1990s with little to no evidence.

The Age of State Terrorism. [Kenneth Trentadue] had no idea that he had been snared in the FBI's manhunt for "John Doe #2," an unidentified co-conspirator in the OKC bombing. While Kenney was in federal custody, indictments were handed down against Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols — as well as "others unknown" — for their role in the Oklahoma City Bombing. That occurred on August 10. Kenney arrived at the Oklahoma City Federal Transfer Facility — just a few miles from the courtroom where McVeigh and Nicholas had been indicted — on August 18. Three days later, he was dead, supposedly of suicide. ...] Not only were prison officials indecently eager to cremate Kenney's body, they were also frantic to sanitize the "suicide-proof" cell. This was a criminal act of evidence tampering. [...] Within a few hours of the "suicide," the FBI and prison officials managed to "lose" or destroy most of the critical evidence.

Obama uses Clinton's playbook to exploit shooting. [President] Obama is following the example of predecessor Bill Clinton, who in 1995 used the Oklahoma City bombing not only to press security-related measures but also to enhance his political clout in a desperate battle with Republicans. It worked for Clinton; the next few weeks will tell whether it will do the same for Obama.

This new book attempts to reinforce the government explanation and deflect attention away from any Middle East connections.

[Richard Lee] Guthrie was arrested on bank robbery charges in 1996 and eventually struck a plea bargain with prosecutors.

The next day, he was found dead, hanging in his cell in Kentucky, purportedly a suicide. *

Major points outlined in the committee's report include:

Evidence suggesting the federal government had prior knowledge that the bombing was going to occur, and where;

Evidence others besides McVeigh and Nichols had a hand in planning the attack, securing the materials for the explosives, and carrying the bombing out;

Materials detailing the government's early assertion that other unexploded bombs were found by authorities immediately after the first bomb went off;
