Firemen at the ruins of Mt. Carmel

When the FBI finally permitted the fire crews to address the fire, nothing was left. The evidence of events was utterly and completely destroyed. (Photo: Waco Tribune-Herald on April 18, 2018, cached. Click to enlarge image.)

Introduction

The evidence is horrifying but must be confronted.

  1. The FBI predicted a bonfire of the Mt. Carmel Center early in March.
  2. The FBI ordered in 16 military tanks to smash the walls of the Mt. Carmel Center. Those vents intensified the fire.
  3. The FBI dumped 2,000 gallons of diesel fuel on the grounds of the Mt. Carmel Center.
  4. The FBI waited for a day with a stiff wind (April 19) to fan the flames.
  5. Despite dozens of living children allegedly inside the Center, the FBI wrecked the building, bombarded the interior of the building with high-impact CS ferret rounds, and subjected the inhabitants to prolonged exposure to various tear gas chemicals.
  6. The FBI fired incendiary rounds at the Center.
  7. When the predicted and anticipated fire broke out, the FBI prevented fire fighting crews and equipment from approaching the blaze.
  8. No rescuers were seen near the fire. The ever-present banks of media photographers captured no images of Davidians escaping the ruins.

Merriam Webster Dictionary defines "holocaust" as:

A thorough destruction involving extensive loss of life, especially through fire
