Bullets raining from the sky (long)

Yes, and they went to the US military to help them with their little
going-away party for Koresh. They needed a compliant little snake in the
army. They found Wesley Clark. Boy, did his career skyrocket after that.
Reno and Clinton may have been abominations, but if you were their whore,
they paid well.

Waco was a tragedy, it looked like the BATF was making a
COPS show with all the troops in the camera. It wasn't a
well planned raid if the Davidians were expected to be
dangerous. And if they weren't dangerous, why the raid? I
think they wanted a movie to show Congress why they needed
more money. After the BATF started the shooting, they had
to kill as many as possible and burn the evidence. Would
have been better if they had just let the Sheriff or Rangers
walk in and if Koresh was a child molester, try him for
that. But Janet Reno had her tanks.

Yeah, they could have had the local Sheriff arrest him while he was out
jogging in the morning, but noooooo, they had to provoke a confrontational
situation... Let's see... You got a group of people who believe that the
world is going to end and be taken over by some sort of ultra-repressive
government... Well, why don't we all dress up in black clothes and attack
them... Hell, they'll give up, right? snicker Yeah, Koresh was a kook,
but so are many of the religious fanatics... As religious kooks went, he
was
actually one of the more harmless ones...
