Oklahoma City: 'beyond a certain point....'(Editorial)
Article Abstract:
The terrorist bombing of the Federal Building in Oklahoma City on Apr 19, 1995 reveals much about the sociopolitical conditions in the US. Poverty, unemployment, inequality and injustice are important reasons behind such activities. American culture and society has apparently drawn closer to cultural anarchy and skepticism. Meanwhile, American civilization seems to break up into fragments in the context of faith, belief and tradition.
