Something to think about-------Reno clearly botsched Waco. Koresh could have been arrested without the great tragedy that happened there. If so, they would have had Koresh for whatever their reason, which I can't even remember, was for wanting to squash him and his followers. Without his leadership, his organization would have gone away. The greater point is that if she had professionally handled a simple arrest of Koresh and not killed all the other people the following would probably not have happened; The bombing in Oklahoma City. I believe the catalyst for causing Tim McVeigh to do the bombing was Waco. I certainly abhor his actions but I do believe the Clinton administration started McVeighs motor. These violent actions on the part of this administration bring out those who feel they need to respond with violence. That is very sad and I hope I am wrong but I fear another tragedy caused by this very inhumane and unnecessary action by the administration.
