As I do each year, I post information to commemorate the attack by FBI agents in military vehicles on the Branch Davidians compound near Waco, Texas on April 19, 1993.
The Branch Davidians, a reclusive group of Christian believers, had been attacked 51 days earlier by over 100 heavily armed BATF agents, surrounded and subjected to psychological warfare techniques by government agents. On April 19th the feds sent in military vehicles to fill the building at the Branch Davidian compound with chemical agents to flush out the remaining occupants. What resulted was a fire that burned to death nearly all the occupants; INNOCENT men, women, children and infants. Some committed suicide by self inflicted gunshot.
To this day the federal government has never accepted responsibility for the events of 1993, nor have they apologized for their ugly and glaring display of unchecked power.
In a tragic and spectacular act of revenge, Timothy McVeigh and his associates carbombed the offices of the BATF and FBI in Oklahoma City on April 19, 1995.
I saw no such attacks. But I do see name calling on your part. Where's you links? You've been called.
Put up or shut up.
There is no kind way to put it.
The FBI lied to the American public
when it denied using pyrotechnic devices
during the raid on the Branch Davidian Church.
The FBI lied.
The FBI lied.
The FBI lied.
No other way to put it.
In the case of Waco, as has been the case
in many other recent scandals, the FBI,
when it speaks, speaks for the government
as a whole. When the FBI lies to the public,
and the government does not gainsay it,
then the FBI lies with the government blessing
and approval. The lies of the FBI are therefore
the "official" lies of the government as a whole.
The whole Waco disaster is a case study
in deceptions and lies to the public.
.....THUNDER......
It looks like she falls short of what's required to analyze and comment on the FLIR analyses that was performed by a number of experts.
Did I see her address anywhere the duration that a muzzle flash lasts (how long the muzzle flash reamains 'visible' to an IR camera) - and that it does not extend over more than one frame of video as the flashes in those IR videos show?
Failure to address that aspect is a failure on the entire project, for that is the crux which proves those are either gunshots or 'specular IR reflections'.
Well that, and the visible photographs that were taken ...
This piece by Grant fails to address issues raised here.
Simply put - she fails.
Fact: <snip> Fact: <snip> Fact: <snip> Fact: <snip>EVERY one of your 'facts' was fallacious.
SUCH is the state (lack of) education here on FR on this topic.
'Hay' is not routinely, within the confines of four walls a roof and wooden floor, referred to as 'fuel', they were, however, referring to Coleman stove or lamp fuel ...
Your facts are about as good as your spelling. Check your home page and do a spell check on "reference".
No need to say more. Thanks for those words.
To all, please make a mental note of the above statement.
