#1 I hear ya, Steve.
We need to know all about his meeting(s) with Ramzi Yousef in the Phillipines.
We executed McVeigh too soon and President Bush carried through the sentence even though it meant leting Clinton's FBI get away with "losing" too much of the evidence, but everything about OKC says jihadi Islamists: truck bomb, children killed, big symbolic American "guv'mint" building, looked just like the African embassy bombings, etc.
The truth needs to come out after over 10 years. McNichols is already toast one way or another though so he might as well make it all mean something by telling what he knows.

#2 Nichol's travels in the Phillipines were worth a look. However, if he had anything to disclose, he would have done so.

#3 Why has it taken so long for Nichols to go to trial if he is not cooperating with other pieces of the OKC investigation?

Can anybody offer up an explanation?

Why has it taken so long for Nichols to go to trial

I'm not sure I understand your question. Nichols was tried and convicted in a federal trial for murdering the federal officials in the building. He got a rather moderate verdict and sentence.

Now Oklahoma wants to try him for murdering all the other people who weren't federal officials. The goal is to increase his sentence.

#5 The goal is to increase his sentence

It's simple, the feds gave him life in prison. The people of Oklahoma want his head on a stake, that's why the state prosecutor won't cut a deal.

#7 Let's not be hasty, Jon: remember people this clown KNOWS THINGS. Things that I for one want made very public, even if a certain former inhabitant of the White House doesn't. If you look carefully into the events surrounding the Oklahoma City bombing you will see that there are real and substantial links between MvVeigh, Nichols, and Iraqi Army Intelligence. A growing body of evidence suggests that those two idiots were hired by our glorious friends in the Arab world to perform that barbaric act of terror. Inquiring RRR's want to know.

So go ahead and give him his immunity. Some DOC will take care of putting an end to the lamentable Mister Nichols in any case.

#9 It's not a matter of "ifs" shipman. It's a matter of "whens" and "whos."

#10 I'm with Secret Master. Give him life and let/make him talk. In the end he'll get shanked by someone.
