Here's a little nugget from HILLARY'S past:

"Torch the Mother fuckers. Do it today!" That was the direct order given Janet Reno's Justice Department by Hillary Rodham Clinton from the East Wing of the White House.

What the govewrnment says:

Lawyers for the government contend it is not to blame for the suffering.

"The responsibility for those tragic events should not be placed upon the shoulders of the brave men and women of the ATF and the FBI," U.S. Attorney Michael Bradford said in opening statements of the trial. "The responsibility for what happened at Mount Carmel is on David Koresh and the Branch Davidians. They caused this dangerous situation to occur, and they brought it to a tragic end."

U.S. attorneys say Koresh had built a stockpile of legal and illegal weapons while teaching members that the world would end in a bloody confrontation with the government.

He also required men and women, husbands and wives, to sleep in separate areas and discouraged intimate contact between them. However, Koresh fathered children with several females who lived at Mount Carmel. Some were reportedly only 14 years old when they were "married" to Koresh for "spiritual purposes."

Government attorneys also say bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms agents were only trying to do their job - serve search and arrest warrants for weapons violations - when sect members, who were "armed to the teeth," ambushed them.

Survivors say....

"It's been suggested that careful analysis of the 911 tapes reveals that the Branch Davidians didn't return fire until 9 to 15 minutes into the gun battle."

Re: How much time passed before the Branch Davidians returned fire?

The very fact that their first response was to call 911 and beg the dispatcher to "call it off" reveals a lot.  Namely, that they were not lying in wait to "ambush" the agents, contrary to the media spin."

"Let's not forget that 99.9% of what the media reported was received at the daily ATF and later FBI press conferences.  The ** ONLY ** information they were provided was from the "authorities" and with nothing to refute it, it was accepted as fact."

Dave Thibodeau said that he saw David Koresh come down the stairs adjacent to the cafeteria with several men who were armed. That was about 10 minutes before the ATF arrived. Koresh shouted, "Don't anybody do anything stupid! I'm going to go talk to them!" But Koresh also said, "No one comes in."

The dogs were exterminated by the agents - we know that. We know that within seconds of the raid's beginning Koresh was taken under fire at the front door, unarmed, and Perry Jones was shot in the stomach - he was also unarmed. We also know that the onrushing agents who were supposed to enter Mt. Carmel by way of the front door were stopped in their tracks by something - presumably return fire that forced them to retreat to cover.


Bottom line, "THEY" could do this to you -- sell their side to the media -- and you too will be judged "insane" by people who know nothing about a government assault targeting YOU.

Now where did you pick that up? The ONLY source of that is the Federal Government (Clinton Administration).

Does that make sense????

He was targeted on GUN charges.  They murdered everyone there then bulldozed everything under within days. They said, AFTER THE FACT, that Koresh was some sort of pervert.  And the gullible (even here) swallow what Bill Clinton puts out.

Some of you just don't think thing thru. Government says something to cover their crimes, the lapdog media (who loved Clinton the way they love Obama) runs with it, and you accept it!

Koresh was on friendly terms with the sheriff.  If he was committing crimes at that compound, why would they ignore it until the Feds murdered the entire group?

I know the beliefs of the Branch Davidians. They're an offshoot of the 7th Day Adventists. My beliefs are similar to both. They make more sense than the insane beliefs of the Catholics or the Muslims!

At some point, he slipped off the deep end...

To this day, I still don't know what he did wrong.

"Officially" illegal gun purchases.

In reality, told the local, state, federal governments to kiss off.

Now as for the OP's questions. The answer is simple really.
