I used to argue with Tim McVey in an AOL chat room, back in 1994. He was one of the most rational and reasonable rightwingers in the chat room (on a regular basis). He listed himself in the members' directory as occupation: mad bomber. After the bombing in OK City, I called the FBI to report our chats and the arguements over how to make anfo (explosives Tim wanted for excavating on an Arizona ranch he claimed). The agent on the other end replied: "Thank you for calling. We'll remove your name from the list Sir."
There are worse than Tim out there. Executing Tim cut off hope for bringing his confederates to justice. How many of his buddies carry badges? Are we in America repeating the events of Germany in the early 1930's?
Can we stand together Jew and Gentile alike, to resist the extreme right?

MY first response is, "Amen. You are so very right and correct," and in truth you are.
My second response is, that I remember these "ideal" men, too, have an immortal soul, their's also having been created in the image of HaShem, and I see that one visible aspect of HaShem is that (of one aspect of His diamond-like character) He must grieve, as only HaShem can, over the apparent loss of these who reject Him. Does He not love His creation in ways that are only understood by Him alone?

AS an American, who longs to be Jewish, I agree whole-heartedly. He got what he deserved, and asked for. - E. B. -0/6-/2001

The real lesson to learn from McVeigh is to seek justice not revenge. America must do justice and treat all terrorists equally. The Jews of America must exert pressure on their elected officials to arrest all PLO officials who enter the USA and bring them to justice by giving them the same treatment given to Timothy McVeigh. Arafat and his terrorist associates have murdered more American Citizens than McVeigh. Don't reward them for this by giving them money, prestige and their own country. Strap them down on the death bed and give them the three injections they so JUSTLY deserve. -0/6-/2001
