This is a new channel on Dish Network. They play Ducumentaries 24/7. This is the first time I have seen "Waco, The rules of engagement.
It will also repeat at these dates all times are CST
Waco, DOCUM Mar 06 12:30am Waco, DOCUM Mar 07 10:00pm
The thing that struck me the most was a FBI spokesman saying they knew gas masks would not fit the children.
He said they pumped in the cyanide and tear gas to torture the children to make the grown ups give up.
Real torture of children and not a pantie on the head of a terrorist. It makes me sick.
It is on at 7:30 this evening, march 5th.
Ditto. It made me sick, also. I couldn't believe that our government spent all of that time, and then in the end killed them all.

bump - startling movie
I saw it two or three years ago. It's very interesting and brings up some good points.
Bubba and Janet don't come off smelling real good and neither does the ATF.

I could believe "our government" could do it. What makes me sick is that the majority of the American people cheered this. And Ruby Ridge. And Elian.

I would like to see any reporter who bitched about panties on the head of terrorists ask any of the Clinton thugs about the known torture of children.
Do you really think that's true?
Thank you for this URL
There was many suspected reasons for this raid to end the way it did. One of them was that an associate of David Koresh had knowledge of and the ability to access CARNIVORE. There is not much on the web about it anymore, most of it has been purged.Bush 41 administration started the investigation. At the time we were fed info from the media, being supplied by the feds, that it was about weapons and child abuse. Although this documentery was about the outcome, there is very little about the initial investigation. One thing was certain, they wanted Koresh and others dead, period.
I do. The government so demonized Pastor Koresh and his congregation most people think they got what they deserved.
Even here on FR there are people who think that even with all the facts that are repeatedly posted showing the truth. People who get their news from the MSM have no idea what really happened and aren't going to find out any time soon.
What took place at Waco was pathetic and I didn't see the film, but I can't believe they pumped cyanide gas into the facility. If the FBI spokesman said that, I think he was mistaken.
CS Gas Used Against Davidians
The tear gas used by the FBI in the final assault against the Branch Davidians in Waco, Texas, was CS gas. All tear gases are considered nerve agents, which are banned for use in combat by international law, but are frequently used by governments to control large crowds. CS gas, which is very strong, is intended for use only in open-air environments, as it can be inflammable and harmful or lethal in closed environments like the Branch Davidians' home.
Death certificates for Branch Davidians who died in the April 19, 1993, fire indicate lethal levels of cyanide in the Davidian's blood, but none in their digestive systems, suggesting inhalation. The CS powder used to make CS gas is very high in cyanide content, according to the manufacturer.
