re a message for you mr president how do you know what happened in article qvv u kc morrow stanford edu salem pangea stanford edu bruce salem writes i think that the consensus will become that fbi atf muffed it not merely because they walked into an ambush on feb and koresh got his prophesy today against their stated intentions but because they played right into polarizing the situation and not diffusing it koresh had set up all the conditions of a classic cult confrontation and had stated publically what the outcome would become before or after his kids were shot the government upped the ante and parcipitated the conclusion today it does seem that the fires were set from within the compound by the members of the group and not caused by the cs gas or the way it was delivered let the subsequent investigation shed light on that suppose then why make the comment that the government had used pyrotechnics and started the fire the dividians still had the decision to stay or leave they never intended as did the jews against the nazis in ww ii do what i say or die to leave the building burns almost everyone dies it probably doesn t bother you much but it bothers many other people most of whom dont believe particularly in koresh or his message all humans i hope yes the finger pointing has begun four atf agents and branch davidians are now dead because of crazy tactics on the part of the atf and fbi yeah they blew it they were being too rational in a situation that was not your ordianry criminal game they haven t learned that much from jonestown or the move house or the sla shootout or perhaps they have kill first blame the dead ones destroy all the evidence royc
