"Of all the forms of murder, none is more monstrous than that committed by a state against its own citizens …“The homicidal state shares one trait with the solitary killer—like all murderers, it trips on its own egoism and drops a trail of clues which, when properly collected, preserved, and analyzed are as damning as a signed confession left in the grave." —Forensic anthropologist Clyde Snow, speaking before the May 1984 meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. He used his skills to expose the atrocities committed by governments. (Quoted by Christopher Joyce and Eric Stover in Witnesses from the Grave, Pg. 217).
State Terrorism is defined by Vocabulary.com thus:
"the calculated use of violence (or the threat of violence) against civilians in order to attain goals that are political or religious or ideological in nature; this is done through intimidation or coercion or instilling fear"
The Waco Holocaust was a terrorist act, designed to create abject fear of the U.S. government in the minds of the citizens.
State terrorism is largely dependent on propaganda, and the laws of propaganda apply. Not all segments of a population ("publics") will react the same way to the terrorist act. While terrorizing large sections of the public into acceptance and inaction, the government must also neutralize opposition. This is done by creating "deniability." When the story comes before individuals with oversight — judges, members of Congress, etc. — they will need an escape valve of deniability by which they can avoid the logical and damning conclusion that the power of the state has been perverted to terrorism.
One can view the Waco Holocaust as a series of events:
A very public military assault on the victims, all of whom are innocent before the law. Among the victims were many mothers and children. The nation's top military and paramilitary agencies were involved: The Pentagon's Special Operations Command, the Department of the Treasury Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms (ATF); and the Department of Justice Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).
Killing the victims, from February 28, 1993 through the siege up to and including the day of the fire, April 19, 1993.
Creating a fig leaf of "deniability." This was done by staging a CS gas attack, ostensibly to "make them come out," and then sparking a massive fire. Rumors that the victims were going to commit suicide were fanned. Killing the men was one thing — but a specific excuse was needed for the deaths of the women and children. That excuse, in part, was as follows: "The mothers and children sought shelter from the C/S gas in the concrete room ('the bunker'), and the structure collapsed and killed them." Their bodies were torn apart and mutilated to disguise the actual causes of death. The plan was to collapse the roof of concrete room ("the bunker collapsed") and blame the deaths of the mothers and children on burial and suffocation.
But apparently through some fault in co-ordination, the roof of the concrete room was not collapsed. Instead, a two-foot hole was punched in the top of the structure.
The words of Clyde Snow (above) remind us:
"The homicidal state shares one trait with the solitary killer—like all murderers, it trips on its own egoism and drops a trail of clues which, when properly collected, preserved, and analyzed are as damning as a signed confession left in the grave."

Many people who distrust the mainstream media have turned to alternate news sources, some of which are Internet based. Unfortunately, many of these alternate sources of news simply promote an alternate series of lies. These alternate lies are of course dressed up as "exposés." But you can easily tell the phonies from the real thing. The information in the Waco Holocaust Electronic Museum is an acid test.
Remember, since ancient times, inquiries into questionable deaths have started with the bodies of the victims. If your news source won't give you an honest and full account of the forensic information on Waco, or if it does not have a link to the Waco Holocaust Electronic Museum … your alternate news has failed a fundamental acid test.
