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. "Grumman-581" wrote in message ... "Jim Macklin" wrote in message news:cYZ3g.10297$ZW3.1757@dukeread04... 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... |

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. Like Mary McCarthy? "Equally interesting is her meteoric rise within the intelligence community. According to her bio, she joined the CIA as an analyst in 1984. Within seven years, she had rise to a Deputy NIO position, and reached full NIO status by 1994. To reach that level, she literally catapulted over dozens of more senior officers--and I'm guessing that her political connections didn't hurt. By comparison, I know a current NIO, with a resume and academic credentials more impressive than Ms. McCarthy's, who reached the position after more than 20 years of extraordinarily distinguished service. McCarthy's rapid advancement speaks volumes about how the Clinton Administration did business, and sheds new light on the intelligence failures that set the stage for 9-11. We can only wonder how many other political hacks climbed the intel food chain under Clinton--and remain in place to this day. " NOTE: An NIO is the military equivalent of a four-star general. http://formerspook.blogspot.com/2006/04/leaker.html |

You are undoubtedly correct. I haven't touched that rife in about a decade!
