Janet Reno single handedly approved of and ordered the attack on the compound (with Bill Clinton’s OK, and FBI Director William Sessions (Reagan appointee, a straight laced guy who suffered under GHWBush- mr. see eye-eeehh, and in particular under his Atty General William Barr).
Sessions took heat for Waco (which was a cluster-screw of incompetent BATF and even marshals— when the local sheriff could have “gotten the man” with little fuss). The apocalyptic leader, when the TX National Guard Abrams tanks crashed into the building-—like Jim Jones suicidal paranoids, had them set fires to the buildings (although some say the “tear” gas canisters started on fire).
GHWBush and the Bush climbing political family meet up with the Clintoons at Mena, Ark. There is no doubt about this, because of guns and cocaine being run through very poorly disguised front companies there (with the approval of Bill, then Gov of Ark, and noted nose powder monkey and chick jumper)— the common theme is cocaine, Colombia and the money laundry this provided (and still may provide nationally) to “real estate” developers. Dirty cops, dirty intel types, and... voila— dirty outcome. Reagan’s efforts to help the Contras was beginning of this, and it morphed into the clinton/arkancide and the future bush b.s.
Incidentally, there’s a highly believable book from Terry Reed (who was a very real documented Air Force Intel guy swept up in all this because of his technical electrical skills, and he and his family threatened because they would not go along with corrupt DEA and their other 3 letter pals). He connects all the dots, including personally being present with drug pirate Barry Seal ( a DEA contractee,whom the Bush people later “gave up” to Colombian druggies who machine gunned him in LA), one William P. Barr, and Billy Boy gov at the time, at a meeting in a hangar at Mena’s airport. It happened. Not conspiracy theory. Clintons and Bushes have much to answer for, according to Terry Reed. A highly detailed book including info about special STOL aircraft purchased from a Georgia company that is still in business today (they make great Alaskan Bush planes).
It was Barr who later made claims of corruption (imagine that) of the Eagle Scout Sessions to force him out of office. The people under Sessions were responsible for Ruby Ridge and Waco, though Waco had the “Jack Brooks” kind of bull crap politics that had a lot to do with machine democrat politics.
Those little children burned up, ironic- since it was Reno who said they “children needed to be rescued”. Utter incompetence. And the same attitude was not shown for the safety of Elian Gonzales in Miami, when Reno sent Fed police to raid his grandparents house with automatic weapons.... and sent this little kid back to Fidel Castro. The clintoons, both of them are all about “the children” particularly Bill with his “interest” in the Lolita Express and teen russian whores, and hitlery and the Podestas with their predilections. Such corruption- both of them. Sorry for the rant— but I remember the sham of that hearing as well.
Good read, I remember it all too well. Remember that the bodies from that disaster, were stored on site in a refrigerated trailer and they let it shut down or shut it down which caused the bodies to liquify, so no autopsy was possible. Janet took full responsibility, what ever that means.
Whether the fire was set by the people or the alphabet guys, it did not require them to crush the buildings to insure they burned to the ground and I hate that they were able to find tankers that would do it.
