Interesting question. In the first cas we’ll never know. Tim is dead. Tim didn’t know an awful lot about bomb making, so it sure seems like he had some help.
Ted Kazinsky is a loonie,
We don’t know who te anthrax letterl "guy " is. He may not be a "guy, but a group. Since we know nothing about him/them it really doesn’t apply one way or the other.
The point is not that one could compare McVeigh with an islamic terrorist, but that both of them could live in the US without being noticed until they blew their bomb. Both you would not have stopped by attacking another country!
What do you mean? They don’t have a reason? They just love to kill and be killed themselves? They have a reason also it is not valid for us. If you don’t look into these reasons you’ll never get to the core of the problem.
Yeah, but some of the terrorists take the support right from the country they attack:
ETA, IRA, RAF, etc.
Others just hide exactly in the country they attack like Atta.
Possibly, but by all accounts a very, very smart loonie with a graduate math degree (IIRC). In any case, definitely a force to be reckoned with. He was only discovered after a tip from his brother.
