On April 19, 1995 a Ryder rental truck packed with explosives was detonated outside the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building, in Oklahoma City.

Casting media coverage aside, as we almost always must of late, there are some 'issues' with the event... issues that are layered beneath the media narrative. Some things we have been 'told' in media reporting are no doubt true... but the actual and complete tale remains distinctly 'untold.' There are some 69,000 pages of government documents languishing in an FBI archive... records they refuse to release - despite legal information requests being on the books for many years.
In fact so reticent, are the 'deciders' at the FBI, that they have requested a "JFK-assassination-style" glacial timeframe to comply.
From Headline USA: FBI Wants 20 Years to Produce Records on Its Involvement w/ OKC Bombing
Reportedly, an Oklahoma lawyer named Jesse Trentadue has been investigating the murder of his brother in prison, .
Trentadue has been suing the U.S. government for OKC bomb-related records for nearly 30 years, ever since his brother was murdered in a federal penitentiary. The complex story of how the death of Trentadue’s brother relates to the OKC bombing can be read in this Mother Jones article.

As it stands, the FBI wants to wait another 12 years before the entire record can be shared. And our lawyer friend, who has already been waiting for 30 years, will be 90-years old by the time the truth might be discoverable.
The reason this all becomes murky is because of allegations, and some curious facts...
Trentadue’s latest lawsuit seeks records on FBI informant and CIA asset Roger Moore (not the James Bond actor), and the bank-robbery gang, the Aryan Republican Army, which he says was an FBI front group.
According to Trentadue’s lawsuit, Moore was an FBI informant as part of the bureau’s 1980s- and early 90s-era Operation Punchout, which was designed to identify and apprehend surplus dealers that bought and sold government property stolen from Department of Defense facilities in Utah.
Furthermore, Moore build patrol boats for use by the US Navy in the Vietnam War, as well as speedboats for the CIA, according to Aberration in the Heartland of the Real—historian Wendy Painting’s PhD thesis-turned-book about OKC bomber Tim McVeigh.
As for the Aryan Republican Army, Trentadue believes that was an FBI front group that also helped fund the bombing.
Trentadue’s Tuesday filing elaborated further on the ARA’s connection to McVeigh.
“During 1993, 1994 and 1995, a gang known as the Aryan Republican Army or “ARA” robbed banks and armored cars in the mid-west. Timothy McVeigh participated in some of those robberies and is reported to have used money obtained from these crimes to help fund the bombing of the Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City on April 19, 1995,” he said.
“According to Peter Langan, several members of the ARA assisted McVeigh in carrying out the bombing of the Murrah Federal Building.”
I had always had misgivings about the FBI and their flirtation with "baiting" suspects (think World Trade Center, 1993) and I suppose that this goes along with that vibe.
I thought some members might find this an interesting avenue of exploration...
