There is little doubt that Tim McVeigh, currently under arrest, was involved. Neither he nor his lawyer have strenuously denied it. But it is also clear that there were more people involved, people who are walking around free today, people whom the federal government seem curiously disinterested in arresting. Two Oklahoma residents, Glenn and Kathy Wilburn, who lost their grandchildren have done the work the FBI would not do and identified the John Doe II who was seen renting the Ryder truck with McVeigh. His name is Michael Brescia, a former university student from Philadelphia. THE ARKANSAS CONNECTION Switching for a moment the crime scene from Oklahoma to Arkansas, the Arkansas State Police last week announced that the badly decomposed bodies of William Mueller and his wife and daughter had been found in a bayou in Pope County, Arkansas. The family had been missing since January. It turns out that there is a connection between Mueller and Brescia, and it leads from Arkansas to Timothy McVeigh, to the Oklahoma bombing. Mueller's home was burglarized in early 1995. Mueller told friends that he may have known who took $50,000 in gold and silver bullion, coins, guns and gun parts in early 1995. He feared they would return and kill him. The burglary took place just two months after another gun burglary in Arkansas in which similar items, that were later linked to the bombing in Oklahoma, were taken. Michael Fortier of Kingman, Arizona, has pleaded guilty to selling guns from the Arkansas burglary to a Kingman pawn shop. Fortier says he did so under instructions from Tim McVeigh. At a gun show in Fort Smith, Arkansas, Mueller had met a man by the name of Andreas Strassmeir. Strassmeir, a former intelligence officer of the German Army, has been living at Elohim City, a religious cult in Oklahoma, where he received a call from Tim McVeigh a few days before the Oklahoma bombing. GOVERNMENT INFORMANTS This is where Brescia fits into the picture. He shared a house with Strassmeir at Elohim City. Both Strassmeir and Brescia appear to be government informants tasked to infiltrate the Patriot/Survivalist/Aryan Nation communities. They were expelled from Elohim City in the summer of 1995 for "stirring up things". Brescia went on to stay with George Eaton, publisher of a Patriot newsletter, who was also a good friend of the Mueller family that was found dead last week. Strassmeir will be named a "US federal informant with material knowledge of the bombing" in a lawsuit to be filed by the Wilburns who lost their grandchildren. And now to the crucial question: Where was Brescia on the day of the Oklahoma bombing? "He was in Little Rock," claims Strassmeir, interviewed by the London Telegraph in Germany earlier this year. THE FBI AS A POLITICAL INSTRUMENT If Strassmeir and Brescia are both government informants, it would explain the lack of interest the FBI has shown in these two men. It is the Wilburns and McVeigh's lawyer who have been pursuing the Elohim City connection. In fact, the FBI appears to have been outright hostile to witnesses who claim to have seen McVeigh and Brescia together. Connie Smith told the London Telegraph that "I kept telling them that the man in the [John Doe II] sketch was that Mike guy, a nice-looking guy, dark-skinned. But the FBI made me feel guilty, then ignorant, as if I didn't know what I was saying. Then, later, I tried to call in with more information and they wouldn't even talk to me." This is beginning to sound like the FBI investigation of the death of Vince Foster, where witness Patrick Knowlton has told the Washington Weekly of similar harassment and falsification of evidence by the FBI. It is clear that since the firing of FBI director William Sessions the day before Foster died in 1993, the FBI has been turned into a purely political instrument. What political interest is there in covering up the Strassmeir/Brescia connection to the Oklahoma bombing? It is quite simple. If they were government informants, the government had advance knowledge of the Oklahoma bombing and could have stopped it. Such a revelation would likely topple the Washington Establishment. That may be the reason why Brescia is still walking free, the FBI is intimidating witnesses, only the foreign press is covering the lawsuit by the Wilburns, and people who know too much are found dead in Arkansas bayous.
