Mr.Barry: <<Impossible. The shots, as seen live on CNN were coming thru the walls and roof and windows of the complex.>> Then obviously you've only seen, or remembered, the edited re-broadcasts of the original BATF shoot-out. The media has consistently edited out everything that happened before the shots were fired through the roof where the ATF agent was perched. I distinctly remember seeing that ATF agent spraying bullets through the window in a nonchalant manner. He was so casual about it because he was not yet under fire...when bullets finally started coming through the roof, it looked like he messed his pants, and couldn't get out of there soon enough (not that I blame him for wanting to seek cover - but I do condemn his spraying bullets into a complex that was known to harbor women and children.). <<Koresh liked him.>> You mean the man you characterize as a murderous monster wouldn't want to kill someone who had insinuated his way into the sect's good graces in order to betray them? Seems a bit out of character (or how you would portray Koresh's character).
