Waco (2018)
6/10
A semi-accurate retelling of the events. ATF/FBI killed those people.
14 July 2022
In the first hours of this standoff the video the media recorded was widely available until it was buried in the months after the raid. While this show gets a lot correct, it blatantly omits parts of the actual events that show even more of the ATF/FBI fiasco. Example: the agents making entry on the second floor roof and window. The unedited footage showed agent enter then the agents behind them toss a grenade (stun) in the window right behind the agents that just made entry. Then gunfire comes out of the building at the agents on the roof. That was ATF shooting at ATF. Also, an agent was on film accidentally shooting himself in the foot climbing a ladder. Then the flamethrower/tear gas tanks that actually set the compound on fire. It was all filmed by the old media that was about truth over politics. I guess overall you get the gist that the ATF/FBI was in the wrong so maybe it's not a complete lie. While I don't condone Koresh and I believe he should have been arrested and he was semi-dangerous and pedophile ,the ATF/ FBI is guilty of a horrendous atrocity against those people.
