No end of drama for the month of April. The 51 day standoff between the FBI, ATF and the Branch Davidians lead by David Koresh came to a flaming end the morning of the 19th when Government agents fired tear gas into the cult compound. The result was chaos and the controversy over whether the fire was set by the FBI and ATF or by the Davidians has fueled a lot of conspiracy and anti-government sentiment over the years. The most infamous upshot was the Oklahoma City bombing in 1995 - two years to the day Waco went from being a sleepy Texas town to the center of a vengeful universe.
I remember seeing this as a teenager. Days before the Waco seige we had the first World Trade Center bombing. It came out in Court testimony that former Egyptian army officer Emad A. Salem recorded FBI Special Agent John Anticev on audio tape

Basically the FBI gave the terrorist the explosives and told the drive to park near a particular supporting columb but did not. The FBI needed another distraction and so two days later the went after David Koresh. He went jogging by himself everyday at the same time and could have arrested him on the street but they decided to make the situation worse. I'm not defending these people but ATF did overstep their boundries. Delta force was there as well as other special operations personnel. There was Flir footage that showed agents of some branch shooting people as they ran out of the back durring the fire. You can find them online and they have been verified and came up durring the congressional hiring. The CS gas that they used was terrible not by itself but by the fire. When CS gas is introduced to extreme heat it causes the muscules to over contracted and it make the bodies deform.
OKC. The Bomb squad was running a drill that morning. Multiple devices being found in the building and the FBI reporting to the news that the found them and defused them. Jane Graham, the head of HUD at the building said she saw ‘maintenence’ men and gray colored sticks of butter in one of the maintenance corridors days before the bombing. It goes on and on.....
I knew for sure that the people who call themselves "U.S. citizens" or "americans" had no moral integrity. If they did the so-called "U.S. government" would have been eliminated within a month.
