The Oklahoma City bombing is constantly referred to as "the worst act of domestic terrorism in U.S. History." This absurdity has been repeated so often that it has become the mantra of the mindless.
Terrorism is defined by U.S. Government experts as "criminal acts and/or threats by individuals or groups designed to achieve political or economic objectives by fear, intimidation, coercion or violence" (Prevention of Terrorism: Security Guide lines for Business and Other Organizations , compiled and edited by William C. Cunningham and Philip J. Gross, Hallcrest Press, Vlrginia, 1978, p. 3).
Using this definition, the bombing of the Federal Building in OKC was not--repeat, not --terrorism: No one has claimed credit for the bombing. No one has made any demands on the government to do or not to do anything whatsoever. Therefore, the bombing was not terrorism.

THE LOST FILES ON THE CONTROLLERS
Investigative Journalist and Researcher Martin Cannon has spent years studying theUFO phenomenon from a more analytical perspective than many investigators in this particular field. His monograph, The Controllers, is still hailed as a "must read" for anyone seriously taking a truly objective approach to this subject. Mr. Cannon has been an invaluable contributor to the Lighthouse Report on such subjects as cults, UFO's, and mind control for the past nine years.
I haven't yet read Corso's book, although I will do so shortly. But, having learned that at least one leading ufologist (previously unsympathetic to the Roswell case) takes Corso at least semi-seriously, I decided to do a little preliminary checking.
The previous poster's information is correct. But there's more -- as anyone can confirm, using Scott and his (characteristically exemplary) footnotes as a guide.
Corso has a history of disturbing ties to racists, fascist sympathizers and nut ball theories. He had worked with Reinhard Gehlen (formerly Hitler's chief intelligence officer) and the BND in trying to set up terrorist operations within Eastern Europe. Washington considered such schemes risky in the nuclear age, so the plug was pulled. Corso soon counted himself among that weirdo coterie of military intelligence staffers who considered the CIA "soft" on communism, and most likely heavily infiltrated by the KGB.
WR: We might add at that time nobody knew where Mengele' whereabouts were. He was supposedly running all over from South America to Central Southwest to Arizona, he was in Arizona in the 60's.
WB: Yes. In 1965, the CIA paid Baltimore Laboratories $15,000 to find a drug which could be used to fake a means of suicide. They came up with several they thought might work with a careless pathologist. Now one wonders...I'd like to see the files on that. It would be hilarious, you know. Corpses) reviving in the morgue and stuff. The same year the CIA spent seven hundred thousand dollars on research with terminal cancer patients. That was '65. And mental defectives at Georgetown University. The unsuspecting patients were given a combination of stimulants, depressants and stress inducing drugs in a failed attempt to replicate the psychic driving techniques developed earlier by Cameron in Canada.
WR: In the near future, there's going to be a footnote to that information. There's a gentleman who's going to be coming out with a book on the subject of Dr. Mary Sherman, working out of Tulane University and her strange connection with David Ferry. ..
