Tragically, the terrorist attack in Oklahoma City was a fertilizer bomb. The tragic terrorist attack in Oklahoma City was with a fertilizer bomb in the back of a Ryder truck. Not even a very large one, but large enough to destroy that building and kill so many wonderful Oklahoma people and others. It just breaks your heart to see that happen. But my point is this. My point is, terrorism does not come, necessarily, as a warhead on an ICBM.
