Also the whole explosive things could have been chaotic, they had been planning getting 3 tonnes of explosives, they have compared the Oklahoma city bombing in 1995 when Terry Mcvay, only used 1 tonne to kill 155 people, so with 3 holy.

Just a couple of minor corrections:  The man who drove the truck in Oklahoma City was named Timothy McVeigh.  Terry Nichols was his accomplice.  (McVeigh was executed in 2001; Nichols is in prison and will be for the rest of his life.)  Also, from what I've read, the truck contained 4,800 pounds of explosives (ammonium nitrate and nitromethane).  And one more thing:  168 people were killed - possibly 169, as a leg was found which was never matched to other remains.

None of this is really relevant to the discussion; I just wanted to make sure the correct info was out there.

Yeah probably should've put down that I wasn't super sure on the facts, just more or less, paper was saying it was apparently 1 tonne I'm sure but whateva, not arguing that point.

I knew there was something odd in that name. And isn't that more than a tonne?
