9. Timothy McVeigh

Unlike most of the modern day terrorists who more often than not are Islamic extremists, Timothy McVeigh was an American domestic terrorist, who detonated a massive truck bomb in front of the Federal Building in Oklahoma in April 19, 1995. This was cited as the deadliest act of terrorism in America prior to 9/11 attacks. 168 people were killed and more than 600 were injured in the Oklahoma City Bombing. McVeigh, a Gulf War veteran, claimed the bombings to be revenge for the Waco siege in Texas, that saw 76 men, women, and children killed during a standoff with federal agents, exactly 2 years prior to the bombings. Amid the evidences that traced back to him, he was arrested and convicted to death. He was executed by poison injection on June 21, 2001.
