#1 Where did he learn to build a bomb like that? One that was successful on the first try...

#2 Building bombs isn't that hard. There's plenty of open source material on it, plus he was in the Army along with McVeigh. I believe I read some where they tested a small bomb in a remote location as a test, that's what I would have done. After that, it's just a matter of mixing the fertilizer with the correct amount of diesel fuel into 55 gallon drums, all of which are easily available in farm country. I don't know that they didn't have help, it's just that there is no reason to think that they could not have done it without outside help.

#3 "he was in the Army"
"open source material"

that's what's been said. it just doesn't seem to jibe with the reality that i enjoy.

they must have been REALLY good at following directions and flying under radars. but i guess you only have to get lucky once...
