I have seen 2 videos as well as the original footage in 93 about Waco. One was a documentary and the other was created by the ATF during the seige. Interesting fact on ATF's version. It was filmed in Oklahoma City and had scenes in an FBI/ATF office (Murrah Building ?). I wonder if McVeigh saw that video. The documentary was very good. The ATF version showed Koresh as a wacked nutcase stockpiling weapons for amrmogedon. He was showen raping little girls and placing children in rooms full of rats as punishment. In addition it show the Dividians shooting through the doors and hitting ATF agents. Interesting, weren't all the wounded agents on the roof or in the window. Plus, it portrayed the ATF agents as loving family men torn from their families my some nutcase. It makes me want to puke. Interesting, that the ATF began filming a PR video just days after the seige bagan, perhaps they knew it would be a PR nightmare. But, the documentary states and I believe the warrant states that the Dividians had (according to the ATF's source) 4 - .50 Caliber M2s and a .54/.56 British Boys. And that they had tons of grandes. Umm, yeah right. If I had 4 - M2s and thhe those ATF bastards shot at me, there wouldn't ahve been any of them left alive to torch the place. They arrived in 3 Cattle Cars. Anybody think that the Dividians would have just fired on the cattle cars and killed 'em all before they got out, if it really was a (Dividian) Ambush. Plus, most importantly, the Dividians let the ATF leave with their wounded agents when they ran out of ammo. If they really were nutcases, they would've just killed 'em. If I had live grandes, I would've used them. Plus, according to the documentary video the ATF used a Chpper to shoot through the roof.
Possible way it happened. Based on the footage and video (Not the ATF Version) it is possible that one of the Dividians climbed into the tower get a look. HE WAS UNARMED. That has been proven. He was shot dead (possibly from the chopper.) The ATF began shooting, the dividians returned fire. All hell broke loose. Fault: No matter who fired first following the killing of the dividian in the tower, the ATF was at fault. They killed an unarmed man. No matter if they or the Dividians fired first, the dividians had just seen one of their men murdered by ATF sharpshooters. They believed they were next (and rightfully so).
Note: All of the surviving Dividians were cleared of charges for the killing of agents. They acted in self-defense. That was their claim and they were exhoneratted based on it.
