You are very close to the truth..Very few people realize the underpinnings of some of our "so called" Protective Agencies. and the power they can wield for good or evil. Does anyone remember the Randy Weaver Saga?? Same scenario as Waco.. I believe Atty Gerry Spence may have represented him in his case after his wife and baby were shot by the same admirable team...Lisa

<< This was a massacre of innocent people and the preponderance of blame lies on the door steps of the justice department. >> I am beginning to believe this. I still believe that Koresh and his brain washed radicals spread gasoline thru-out the complex, but the more I read and hear the more blame must be placed with the justice department. Playing loud music was stupid and attacking the complex with tanks was stupid. The initial raid should never have happened. Above all, the children should have come first. The FBI knew they were dealing with unstable killers. They knew that Koresh had threatened mass suicide. The FBI should have taken Koresh more seriously.
