Since the trial and execution of Timothy McVeigh for the Oklahoma city bombing, it has become apparent that McVeigh's claim that he was a special forces operative working for the government, is true. (See the documentary "A Noble Lie" and "The Secret Life Of Timothy McVeigh" by James Corbett.)
Timothy McVeigh was not a resentful enemy of the government of the United States of America, but an agent of a government department who knew such enemies existed. Nevertheless, the attack on the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in downtown Oklahoma City on April 19, 1995 is still an example of futility.
