Probably the most 'content neutral' statement would be merely to note
that there was most definitely a bomb in the car.  "Planted" implies a
planter, and since (as you note), no charges were ever brought (though
arrests were made, as I recall), it is certainly unclear just who the
bomb was there and who put it there.

Certainly the FBI and local police *suspected* they knw the source of
the bomb and the circumstances were certainly suspicious.

As for the nails . . .  Wasn't the claim made that the nails in Bari's
garage were an exact match for the ones that appeared to be part of
the bomb?  I think you could go into nearly anyones house and find
nails (carpenter or not), but finding a size and type that matches
might be more difficult.

The problem with slinging a charge of 'get the facts' on this case is
that there aren't very many of them.  There is a great deal of inuendo
and assertion from partisans on both sides--but damn few accessible
facts.  (And your opinions are no more 'facts' here than the opinions
of those you are pointing at.)
