WASHINGTON (AP) - Tipped they might have missed evidence a decade ago, FBI agents searched the former home of convicted Oklahoma City bombing conspirator Terry Nichols and found blasting caps and other explosive materials apparently related to the 1995 attack, officials said Friday.

We know this because we've seen homegrown terrorists kill hundreds of innocents in America. In the heartland, Oklahoma City, 168 people died in the bombing of the federal building in 1995 because Timothy McVeigh hated the federal government.

Events such as the Oklahoma City bombing in 1995 and the Waco, Texas, confrontation in 1993 shock the public consciousness because they seem so alien to daily life. Actually, they provide brief evidence of a largely unseen, shadowy world of extremists in our society. Leonard Zeskind, an investigative journalist, has spent years researching this encyclopedic history of the white nationalist movement over the postwar period. The exhaustive nature of the study is shown in "Blood and Politics" by the reference notes, which take up 76 pages.

The fiercest critics tend to be those writing about something they love, and for writer Gore Vidal, that something is the United States of America. Despite his upper-class upbringing, Vidal refused to go to Harvard after serving in World War II. He had already spent too many years in boarding schools, including the Los Alamos Ranch School (future site of Los Alamos National Laboratory). Vidal is considered a master of historical fiction, but his own life seems inextricably interwoven with current events. "I lose sleep over the future of my country," he said in a recent telephone interview from his California home. Vidal was most interested in discussing the nonfiction trilogy he has written since Sept. 11, 2001. The books include Imperial America: Reflections on the United States of Amn...

In his recent book about struggles in the Democratic Party, Matt Bai quotes an activist who claims that Clinton "stripped the party of its moral authority and brought the country to the edge of ruin." It was not a poll-tested strategy, but an idea rooted in American political thought and carried along by intellectuals like the University of Maryland political theorist (and Commonweal contributor) William Galston, who became Clinton's domestic-policy adviser. Clinton felt boxed-in by the Republican ascendancy, but this led him to define his centrism as a fighting faith-an ardent defense of government that hit its rhetorical high point in the aftermath of the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing, when he lashed out against the far Right.
