I really don't think that any one with half a brain expected that the government would set them afire.

TAPE BLOCKBUSTER: DELTA FORCE SHOWN IN SHOOT-OUT AT WACO Filmmaker Mike McNulty is claiming that his follow-up documentary to the Oscar-nominated "Waco: Rules of Engagement" will show on videotape Delta Force commandos in a gun battle at Waco! These explosive charges were raised by syndicated columnist and host Robert Novak on Thursday's Crossfire when he posed the following scenario to guest Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-NY): (JOINED IN PROGRESS...) NOVAK: Let me give you a major issue involved, and that is that Mike McNulty, who has a documentary that is going to come out in a few weeks, says that he shows on the documentary members of the commando -- U.S. Army commando group Delta Force in a gunfight with the Koresh people. For this information to come out now, six years later, if his video shows that, that's a disgrace, isn't it?" WEINER: You know, can I tell you, ever since this incident happened, there have been conspiracy theorists who have sought to keep it alive... NOVAK: As a reporter, Mr. Weiner, I would be very interested in seeing this video and seeing whether indeed we have documentary evidence of this gunfight going on with Delta Force people without an authorization needed by law from the president. Wouldn't you as a congressman and a member of the Judiciary Committee like to see that tape before you make these conclusions saying that it's a conspiracy theory? (WEINER AND NOVAK GO BACK AND FORTH, WEINER NOT DIRECTLY ANSWERING NOVAK'S LINE OF QUESTIONING...) NOVAK: Just one minute -- why won't you answer my question? WEINER: Bob, I answered your question. NOVAK: No. Would you... WEINER: I am interested. I am interested. I want to... NOVAK: Would you like to see that video? WEINER: I'm interested in seeing an independent investigation of this and we're going to get that, and Janet Reno is the person leading the call for that. (END TAPE...) McNulty's film, "Waco, A New Revelation", is being released directly to home video in mid-September. Developing hot...

C Kahn; I don't think David believed it would come to what it did, He had definite plans on coming out as soon as he finished writing what he was calling the Seven Seals, he was ( obsessed with doing that just like it was an addiction ) but he was on a deadline to finish and people were coming to pick it up, and he had already agreed at that time to give up. They way negotiations were being handled, ( good cop / bad cop ) I think I have evidence that the ATF did not want him to come out, and jacked Reno around so as to jump the deadline that they had agreed to give to Koresh, ( at least they led him to think in his mind he had two more days to finish the Seven Seals ) David was wiped and ready and that's what the ATF didn't want to happen. IF the building it self had it not burned down it would have proven the sheer brutality of the attack, the ATF was also desperate and obsessed with finding a way to keep the public from seeing just how bad they had shot it up. They also didn't want David to come out with the tapes he shot of the ATF as they road around the Building when they would at times drop their pants and "moon" the people inside. David had gotten some batteries and collected a lot of evidence that would have been very embarrassing to the ATF, the problem is he let them know it, but it was beyond his capacity to think they would burn the place down, he just didn't and couldn't picture people as being that ruthless. ---------------------- Jim
