Grisly, indeed, but it's something that should be required viewing by [u]any[/u] defender of the government's handling of [u]any[/u] aspect of the Mount Carmel Massacre!

Some of us will never get over the horrors we witnessed that April 19, 1993, afternoon. Nor should we.

[b]It is, and will likely remain, the most sublime and exquisite example for all time of the lie, 'We're from the government and we're here to help you.'[/b]

I get so friggin tired of hearing of Israeli mistreatment of Palestinian children, when if you really want to see how the 'Great Satan' can sometimes treat or mistreat its very own children, well....

[b]You need look no further than Waco.[/b]

PS: Isn't it ironic that William 'I'm Jealous of Monica' Sessions, the Director at the FBI at the time of the massacre of the children, was a former Mayor of Waco?

Eric, I wasnt aware he was mayor of any town...

Judge Sessions was a private practitioner of law in Waco, Texas, from 1958 until 1969, when he left his firm, Haley, Fulbright, Winniford, Sessions, and Bice, to join the Department of Justice in Washington, D.C., as Chief of the Government Operations Section, Criminal Division.

Everytime I see read about this or something like it, I realize it's time for a change in American government.  I worry, however, that the only way to effect a real change is the way our Forefathers did in the 1770s.  It's going to be real hard to get politicians to vote themselves out of existence.

Hmm, I thought I had read that in 'The Ashes of Waco', by Dick Reavis, but it wasn't there. I suppose I must have pickedit up in some urban legend thread. His biography doesn't mention it.

And even though Waco is not the center of the universe, I would suppose that being mayor of it would wind up on one's resume.

It's one thing for a group of private citizens [u]not[/u] to be on the 'up and up' and quite another thing for the government, armed to the teeth with all sorts of powers, weapons, and the laws, not to be on the 'up and up'!

And I would imagine that this would be the thinking in Canada, as well!

If someone had told me thirty years ago that a religious madman was holding children hostage in a church near Waco, Texas, I would have responded with 'My God, I fear for the lives of those children.'

If they had then told me that there were 200 FBI agents within 200 yards of the church building, I [u]would[/u] have said, very much relieved, 'Why didn't you tell me that in the first place?'

'FBI agents in place around the church?'

'Why those children are just as safe as if they were in their own houses with their own parents!'

'The FBI would never do anything that would put the safety of those children at risk!'

Well, it's thirty years later, and I don't have any illusions about the FBI, the ATF, or any police department in the country doing the right thing.

I've seen too many 'SWAT-Team' wannabes doing too much stupid sh|t to make me think that any group of kids are ever safe as long as such idiots think that action is better than waiting!

What the government should have done at Mount Carmel, was to erect a large fence around the church's property, with watchtowers, and put a large sign over the guarded entrance:

[size=4]Mt. Carmel Penitentiary[/size=4]

And they should have given the 'prisioners' in that prison the very same food and medical treatment that the Feds were giving the rioting Mariel Boatlift criminals, who had rioted in Atlanta and Arkansas in the past!

No medical treatment was offered to the Branch Davidians unless they surrendered. This was not the same offer the government made to the rioting Cuban prisoners.  Doctors were permitted to go inside the convict-controlled prisons to give medical aid and treatment to the convicts, without those same convicts having to surrender to authorities.

Why the difference in treatment?

Since when is someone being an 'unconvicted, unindicted American citizen' less to be concerned about than a 'convicted, imprisoned non-American citizen'?

Only in the Clinton Administration, folks, only in the Clinton Administration!

It's really a shame. I knew the two Andrade sisters when I was in college working at the neighborhood gas station and they were in high school. We lived about 4 blocks apart and I used to see them around town all the time. Both of the girls were very pretty (little hotties) and always seemed nice. I don't know how they got involved with that freak. It's really a shame. I don't think they deserved the hand they were dealt.

Furthermore, and the thing that PISSES me off to no end, is those ATF guys KNEW there were children and babies in that compound, yet they blared loud noise at the building 24-hours a day. Now, regardless of what the adults did, of who was killed, the fact is those babies and the children need their sleep. They are innocent! It seems to me the ATF and FBI could have shown they are the better men by taking that into consideration. Instead, they lowered themselves to the level of thugs, with Janet Reno and Clinton not doing a damn thing about it.

Of course, the stock explanation you will get is something along the lines, "The Koresh people could have surrendered, it would have ended, and the kids would get their sleep." The problem with that disingenuous line of BS is those people would not going to surrender. The end result is the kids suffered.

Anyway, that BS really pissed me off. If I had any respect for the Feds before Waco, it totally disappeared afterwards.

This tragedy could easily happen in Bush's regime as well,Hon. I question your grasp of understanding on this topic. Law enforcement doesn't get elected along party lines. Law enforcement officers rise into power because they are willing to obey their superior officers,right or wrong without question, similar and the same as the military. The problem lies in that hierarchy that disciplines its citizens without disciplining itself.

I feel there is plenty of blame on both sides.  If they had not fired on the ATF when they tried to serve the search warrant they would probably still be alive.  If the ATF had not embellished to get a warrant, they would probably be alive.

They could have left their building anytime after the initial siege. David Koreash knew that he could never leave so he stalled and broke promises during the entire siege.  How could he surrender to the very people he claimed were evil and would destroy them.

DaMan, It's my understanding that the FBI intentionally cut off the power....


Evidence that would be useful in establishing governmentculpability, or in exonerating the Branch Davidians, has disappearedunder questionable circumstances, or been tampered with.


Why did the FBI cut off the refrigeration at the morgue in FortWorth without notice to relatives of those Davidians whose bodies werekept there?  A wrongful death suit filed by Ramsey Clark on behalf ofthe families alleges that this action caused "remains of deceasedchurch members to disintegrate."  Who gave that order?  And why?

JIM LEHRER: What was your darkest day or what was your darkest time during these eight years?

JANET RENO: Well, you were there. I was... It was Waco.

JIM LEHRER: Yeah, yeah. I'm sure you've spent a lot of time thinking about that. What went wrong?

JANET RENO: One... [b]It's obvious what went wrong[/b], but one will never know what the right answer was, because one doesn't know what Koresh would have done two weeks later without any provocation, so we just have to learn. And one of the things that I think it's important to do is to make sure that the FBI, when it... rather than inheriting situations, designs the initiative from the beginning.

JIM LEHRER: You kind of burst out on the public scene as a result of Waco, as a result of your saying, "[b]I was responsible. I made the decision,[/b] and I will live with it." Is that how you feel about it now, too?

JANET RENO: I sure do.

JIM LEHRER: You do bear... you do feel you were responsible?

JANET RENO: I made the decision. [i] {Backtracking Bitch!! Notice she won't say she's responsible anymore!!} [/i]

JIM LEHRER: And did you make the decision... do you think you made the wrong decision?

JANET RENO: I'll never know.  Clearly, if I knew then what I know now, I wouldn't do it, but I don't know whether I could have avoided it down the line. [b]There are those that have reviewed this case in-depth and said he could have done the same thing two weeks later with people not bothering him at all.[/b]

How about the fact that the FBI intentionally gassed the kids?  In "Waco, Rules of Engagement" there is footage of a news conference where the FBI spokesman in San Antonio says that they gassed the kids to bring out the "motherly instincts" of the parents so they would surrender.

To me, the Waco Massacre has a lot of similarities to the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising.  A bunch of people who were originally minding their own business are assaulted with armored vehicles, their homes razed, and they are gleefully gassed.  Finally, the survivors were prosecuted.  

Except the General in charge of the Warsaw Ghetto was hanged.  Janet "The Butcher of Waco" Reno, on the other hand, is running for office.

A picture of an ATF flag flying under a state flag with a bunch of guys in BDUs walking around says it all.  As far as I'm concerned the ATF operates outside the law.  They are repugnant to the constitution.

I suppose now I'll wake up to the sounds of Motley Crue blaring through the windows.  They wouldn't be that cruel would they? [rolleyes]

Maybe this is a stupid question, but many of the bodies were identified using DNA.  Where did they get DNA info on that many people after the fact?
