USA: 1993 WACO INCIDENT: NEW EVIDENCE EMERGES

New evidence has emerged in the F-B-I's assault on the Branch Davidian compound in Waco, Texas in 1993.
Federal Marshalls have attained and released a videotape revealing agents being given permission to lob potentially flammable tear gas at the compound, a substance the F-B-I has repeatedly denied using.
President Clinton is calling for an independent inquiry over previously undisclosed evidence.
The infra-red videotape, showing aerials of the Koresh compound, was recorded during the early hours of April 19th, 1993 - the final days of the armed siege on the cult near Waco.
That's when F-B-I agents lobbed incendiary tear-gas canisters at a concrete bunker adjacent to the Davidians' compound.
Hours after the canisters were fired, the wooden compound 50 yards away erupted in flames.
Cult leader David Koresh and some 80 followers died during the inferno -- some from gunshot wounds, others from the fire.
U-S marshalls seized the evidence on Wednesday night, after being informed by the F-B-I that new information had been discovered in the files of the agency's hostage rescue team at Quantico, Virginia.
An F-B-I source has confirmed that agents can be heard on the tape asking for and receiving permission to lob an incendiary tear gas cannister at a concrete bunker.
But the source says the tape does not contradict the F-B-I's position that it did not start the fire at the Davidians' wooden compound.
The fire started several hours later and 50 yards away from the bunker.
A presidential spokesman said that he would like to see an independent investigator look into the F-B-I's conduct during the incident.
Attorney General Janet Reno is reportedly poised to appoint one.

I'm surprised this footage wasn't "lost" either. Footage of the initial raid along with evidence of flashbangs used getting lost is just unlucky.

Where is the FLIR video footage from one of the choppers of the ATF laying on the ground pointing their rifles at the buildings? It showed a heat signature coming off the end of their barrels. the govt claimed it was "glint" from sunlight but the inventor of the FLIR technology says that's not possible because it only shows heat signatures. Also, if it were glint it would've glinted off other parts of the rifle, not just the end of the barrel where the fire comes out. We were lied to, they just wanted to make examples out of them.

Any of those clips arent there. Only dead Children and parents. All gun toting shooters. ? The FBI ATF or another crooked secret posse had been with Koresh before this and went playing on firing range with him but never thought to take him in. Take leader then the davidians would be a bit lost and then do the checks for the abuse spoke of! But decided the budget needed a lift and hadn't spent too much so this was a cost $ for next years budget. Maybe the mental games sent a few people too far and why shooting weeks of head frying stuff then expect to climb into windows with normal reception. Could have went home. Got Koresh but at budget wouldn't be as much for the next year? If anyone has the Bradley tanks footage it should be on you tube. Making you tube feel a bit policed for the wrong people. Fairs fair. You tube is now like the papers, not the full story.... See what we want you to see! Delete any footage that isn't proving truth one way or another. Its obvious the media was worried about you tube but now obviously after looking for clips like actors talking about middle east conflict and Waco tanks killing people go I know it's the boss man who has taken it down. Shame you tube. Time there was a new uncensored you tube. You tube, wart an all...

If you watch the documentary “ Waco rules of engagement “ you will see how our government actually murdered its own citizens. The media at the direction of the FBI vilified Koresh and the branch davidians in order to get the nation to hate these people. Rather than sympathize with them. The FBI torched the place to cover their crimes. There were calls to 911 from the Branch Davidians inside the compound during the raid pleading with the feds to call it off. Compelling and horrifying documentary! The whole country needs to see it.

Joe Johnson it’s not hard for a federal agency to coerce someone into a confession, in fact it’s quite easy. But regardless of that, why were all the federal agents and their kids that would have been at the daycare told not to show up on that exact day? Why was the same Ryder truck Tim used spotted at one of fbis storage compounds just two days before the explosion. Why are there reports of a third man with dark hair parking the truck? Not trying to fight with you just looking for explanations to some pretty obvious holes in the story.

I watched a documentary a while ago on TV about this. My first encounter with this story was actually in school when I had to do a paper on it thinking that the Branch Davidians were wrong and that David was just a monster. I thought this because this is how our government wanted to present it. Then many years later I seen the documentary I previously mentioned and it showed the real story when I was very surprised. Usually the government wouldn’t want them being shown as monsters. The aerial footage showed everything. The FBI and ATF were definitely firing first. They were dead set on killing them. There were so many eye witness accounts even from the sheriff who said the Branch Davidians were peaceful people. Granted the things they did were weird and I find it disturbing that David was sleeping with underaged girls but they were not a threat to anyone. They kept to their own and minded their own business. In the state of Texas you have a legal right to bear arms. The ATF and FBI lied about this in order to go in there and kill them. “The Land Of The Free” is just government propaganda. They were practicing the own religion that is protected by laws yet they were slaughtered by a power hungry government who wanted to assert their dominance over us civilians. Make no mistake, the biggest threat to Americans and the rest of the world is US government. They’re are disgustingly corrupt. Always have been. There were tanks with flamethrowers attached to them, they constantly fired on the building but lied and said it was the Branch Davidians. They never started shooting at the ATF and the FBI until there were Davidians killed. They acted out of pure self defense. Yeah, I’m sure all of us wouldn’t agree with what the Branch Davidians did but they were peaceful nonetheless and didn’t deserve to be cooked alive by a corrupt federal government. I hope all of the ATF and FBI agents involved burn in hell for what they did.

@saxon1177 Жыл бұрын

I saw that video, too. The govt. claimed it was glint coming off the end of the barrels, shown in the FLIR video, but the inventor of FLIR technology said that it only shows heat signatures, not flashes of light reflecting off metal. Proof that the ATF did fire first. Also, if they initially just wanted David for weapons charges, they could've simply arrested him when he went into town for anything and avoided all that. Seems to me they wanted it all to go down to keep Americans in their place >>> obedient and scared of them. And now this liberal administration is acting like fascist.
