The chief conspirators, Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols, met in 1988 at Fort Benning during basic training for the U.S. Army.[18] Michael Fortier, McVeigh's accomplice, was his Army roommate.[19] The three shared interests in survivalism, opposed gun control, and supported the militia movement.[20][21] They expressed anger at the federal government's handling of the 1992 Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) standoff with Randy Weaver at Ruby Ridge as well as the Waco Siege—a 1993 51-day standoff between the FBI and Branch Davidian members which began with the shooting deaths of federal agents who were attempting to execute a search warrant and ended with the deaths of David Koresh and 75 others.[22] In March 1993, McVeigh visited the Waco site during the standoff, and then again after its conclusion.[23] McVeigh later decided to bomb a federal building as a response to the raids
