Perhaps we are all focusing on the wrong thing. As I recall Foster’s death, however it came about, occurred right after the Waco fiasco. Foster was Janet Reno’s assistant and by all accounts a decent man.

Reno, presumably with her staff’s input and acquiescence, authorized the use of CS gas at Waco. CS gas was a chemical agent that the US and about 120 other nations had already agree to ban effective 1/1/94. The manufacturer of CS gas had stopped selling it to Israel in the late 1980’s because Amnesty International made a big stink about the Israelis using CS gas inside buildings, which AI claimed was killing small children. Not surprising AI had nothing to say about the Clinton Administration’s use of CS gas inside a building against US Citizens, some just infants. The manufacturer maintained that the gas was for disbursal in the outdoors and not appropriate for indoor use because of its possible toxic effect in close quarters. In the presence of fire CS gas could become the same type of lethal gas that the Nazis used on the Jews during WWII.

Despite all of this evidence Reno and her staff authorized the use of a to-be-banned chemical agent against infants and toddlers. The Clinton Administration and its apologist in the media and Congress, primarily then Representative Chuckie Schumer, claimed the Branch Dividians killed themselves ala “Jonestown”. Autopsy evidence indicates many of the infants and toddlers had high levels of CS gas in their bodies or were crushed by the heavy concrete wall that the tanks knocked over onto them and it was probably these two things that killed them.

Linda Tripp said later that, just before his death, Foster was very distraught over the way the infants and toddlers died at Waco. Very shortly thereafter he was dead.

We may never know the truth about Foster’s death but the fiasco at Waco is something that forever should hang around Clinton's neck.

Foster knew the people he was involved with. I'm skeptical that distress over Waco in April of 1993 was the cause of his demise in July of 1993.

Wasn't he supposed to have met with some Clintonista just prior to his demise? If so, either they were trying to convince him to stay on the reservation or they were trying to find out what he had done.

Judging from all the loose ends, Foster's demise seems to have been rushed and/or implemented by the B team. The ensuing coverup has been professional.

Agreed the Clintons don't get enough credit for Waco.

I think CS gas was used very recently but can't remember where.
