The OKC Bombing, Ten Years LaterThere are murdering bastards of every color and creed: There are terrorists in Oklahoma. They murdered 168 good people ten years ago today. And they disrupted the innocence of a fine old town that had nothing to do with the twisted politics of the terrorists. Oklahoma City and those people’s lives were nothing but stage dressing in their ugly little fantasy ideology. OKC wasn’t even my hometown, nor a favorite city–just a place I had lived near and come to recognize as an outpost of decency and civilization, of faith and honesty and hard work. It was the sort of sprawling all-American flyover town my classmates out on the East Coast didn’t have much regard for, but for which I was desperately homesick. The condescension was palpable, and it culminated in a question by Connie Chung that (along with some other gaffes) cost the anchor her job: Read the whole thing. posted by Ace at 11:34 AM
CommentsHis link contains a far more important story: Drawn to the scene, I wandered inside and found a bazaar of vendors hawking all kinds of radical material. There were books preaching Islamic “Jihad,” books calling for the extermination of Jews and Christians, even coloring books instructing children on subjects such as “How to Kill the Infidel.” It was a meeting of the Muslim Arab Youth Association (MAYA), an umbrella group that included many smaller groups. There is a war of words going on ACE between Islam and the rest of the world and now is not the time to knuckle under to pressure or try to blithely ignore it. Evil stalks the world like a roaring lion, seeking whom it may devour. Posted by: 72VIRGINS on April 19, 2005 12:06 PM
There is a war of words going on ACE between Islam and the rest of the world Yeah, I think I heard something about that. Posted by: ace on April 19, 2005 12:07 PM
Ace and See-Dubya, I just read See-Dubya's post at Patterico's (not knowing you linked to it here). I'm not sure why exactly, but I found it noteworthy that CW didn't mention that there were children in the Murrah Federal Building. Although one cannot give any measure as to the level of evil or ruthlessness per se, when it comes to something like deliberate mass murder, there seems, however, to be something incalculable about the evil that knew that there were day-care aged children in that building that were certain to be killed or maimed by the blast. And yet, in the last 60 years, and although on different scales, we have seen this type of evil again and again. And this, "I wish I was alone here. I wish this was just an Oklahoma thing and nobody else really understood the insult and the grief this kind of attack leaves on your psyche. But I’m afraid you all do understand now, after another fine clear morning in 2001, when we were all New Yorkers." I think that's true for most, but certainly not all, Americans. After 9-11 I had traveled to NYC many times, but it was not until last year, on my birthday, that I finally went to Ground Zero. After going there, I can understand why there are those who would like to keep it as a tomb or memorial for those killed. I think it's time I take a trip to OKC.

I seem to remember McVeigh claiming he didn't know there were children in the building, and that he might have reconsidered if he had. Of course, he could have been lying. If you're willing to blow people up, lying a little probably isn't that difficult. Posted by: Knemon on April 19, 2005 11:37 PM
No, McVeigh referred to the death of the children in the daycare center as "collateral damage." And for that, I hope his soul burns in eternal hell. Posted by: Margi on April 20, 2005 03:12 AM

Well I guess they could have opened it on the Snake Canyon.
In response to someone asking why the video tape doesn't show Tyler Robinson's face (PS, it does, but it's crappy video so it's blurry):
Candace OwensFor such an "open and shut case" they have thus far provided ZERO evidence of anything outside of a criminal government conspiracy, the likes of which hasn't been seen since the JFK assassination.

And a song with another song as an intro, too: Be it sight, sound, smell, or touch There's something Inside that we need so much The sight of a touch, or the scent of a sound Or the strength of an oak with roots deep in the ground The wonder of flowers to be covered and then to burst up Thru tarmac, to the sun again Boy do they look like absolute dorks.
