1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:14,800
In February 1993, approximately 130 men, women and children lived in a large house just

2
00:00:14,800 --> 00:00:20,280
outside Waco, Texas, on property they called the Mount Carmel Center.

3
00:00:20,280 --> 00:00:25,640
The leader of this group was 33-year-old Vernon Howell, who later changed his name to David

4
00:00:25,640 --> 00:00:30,840
Koresh. David believed he had been asked by God to deliver the message of the book

5
00:00:30,840 --> 00:00:37,640
of revelations in the Bible to the world. Rachel, David's wife and their three children also

6
00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:43,520
lived at Mount Carmel. The Mount Carmel property was established as a religious retreat

7
00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:51,160
by its founders in 1935. Followers came to be known as Branch DeVittians. In 60 years,

8
00:00:51,160 --> 00:00:55,480
he had been only one incident in an otherwise unblemished record of the Branch DeVittians

9
00:00:55,480 --> 00:01:01,400
peaceful existence with their neighbors. Former leader George Rodin's wife gave leadership

10
00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:07,160
of the group to Koresh. Rodin then unearthed dead woman in her coffin and challenged Koresh

11
00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:12,760
to see who could raise the dead woman. Koresh called the police who said they needed evidence.

12
00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:16,760
Koresh and several followers went to the ranch to take pictures of the coffin and wrote

13
00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:23,240
an opened fire. Rodin was shot in the finger. Koresh and seven others were arrested.

14
00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:29,240
All were later acquitted. Former leader George Rodin also accused David Koresh of getting

15
00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:34,920
his 75-year-old mother pregnant. In response, David replied,

16
00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:40,840
If I took a seven-year-old woman and got her pregnant, you better watch out.

17
00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:50,840
On God. This statement obviously said sarcastically was repeated out of context,

18
00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:55,160
over and over in the news media and by the FBI in the next weeks,

19
00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:58,040
to portray David Koresh as having claimed he was God.

20
00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:03,480
Many people at Mount Carmel held responsible jobs in the outside community.

21
00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:08,040
Wayne Martin was a well-known and respected Harvard-educated lawyer.

22
00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:12,760
Sherry Jula was a computer analyst in teacher. David Jones was a male man.

23
00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:15,720
Mike Schroeder and Woody Kendrick's work craftsmen.

24
00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:19,880
Church services were no different than what you'd expected any church service.

25
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:33,080
The branch divisions were well-liked by many of their neighbors.

26
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:37,240
And the branch divisions had some distinguished neighbors over the years.

27
00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:43,080
Texas Governor Anne Richards grew up in Waco. William Sessions was the mayor and a judge in

28
00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:49,960
Waco before he became director of the FBI. ATF director Stephen Higgins and FBI spokesman

29
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:55,960
Bob Rick's both attended Baylor University in Waco and President Clinton recently appointed

30
00:02:55,960 --> 00:03:00,360
a new commissioner of the Internal Revenue Service. She too is from Waco.

31
00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:05,000
The house was built by the laborers of the people who lived there.

32
00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:13,240
What happened to target these seemingly peaceful and religious people for the wrath of the United States government?

33
00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:20,840
Around 1987, Mark Bro, a self-proclaimed prophet from Honolulu, Hawaii, joined the branch

34
00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:27,160
divisions at Mount Carmel. He was asked to leave in 1989 when he tried to take over the leadership of

35
00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:34,600
the Mount Carmel Center from David Koresh. Mark Bro vowed revenge. He called several international

36
00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:41,160
agencies and made allegations against David Koresh of adulterous sex, child abuse, and gun stockpiling.

37
00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:46,840
One of the groups he contacted was cult awareness network. A group that helps to arrange

38
00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:52,760
kidnappings and deep programming of people who join religious groups. Deep programming is a form

39
00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:58,280
of brainwashing. Call to awareness network pushed for investigations of the branch divisions.

40
00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:05,000
In 1992, Mark Bro was provided a golden opportunity to get his revenge

41
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:10,120
when a disjockey named David Jewel became embroiled in a custody battle with his wife,

42
00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:17,000
Sherry Jewel, a branched a video that lived at Mount Carmel. Mark Bro approached David Jewel's mother

43
00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:23,160
to tell his sorted tales of sex, abuse, and guns. He then later testified at the custody hearing.

44
00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:30,600
In an interview with an Australian network in 1991, David Koresh himself answered these claims.

45
00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:39,400
How many wives do you have? One. One. One. One. Why? Have you always had, have I committed a

46
00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:47,720
adulterer? No, I don't commit adulterer. You tell me the truth. I am telling you the truth.

47
00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:54,200
Have you beaten children? No, I do not. I think the girls that was I shall. Was there parents

48
00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:58,040
there? A parents were there? Did you do it? No, I didn't do it.

49
00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:04,120
Nonetheless, these very same allegations made their way into the search warrant of David,

50
00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:10,760
written by alcohol tobacco and firearms agent, David Agalera on February 25, 1993.

51
00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:17,640
The ATF is responsible for seeing that taxes are paid on certain types of guns,

52
00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:24,040
and enforcing federal gun laws. Why would these allegations be included in an application to search

53
00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:29,720
for weapons violations? The ATF has no authority to investigate child abuse or polygamy.

54
00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:35,480
And these allegations were investigated by the Texas welfare department, and the McClin and

55
00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:41,560
County Sheriff's Department in 1991, and 1992, and were found to be baseless.

56
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:48,920
Parts of the search warrant, affidavit by Agent Agalera were false. Here, Agent Agalera refers to

57
00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:55,400
shotgun news, a national newspaper with a circulation of 150,000 that has sold it new stands all

58
00:05:55,480 --> 00:06:03,240
over the country. He calls it a clandestine newspaper. The ATF described how an undercover agent

59
00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:11,800
had observed the upper and lower receivers of disassembled AK-47s. The AK-47 has a one-piece receiver.

60
00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:18,440
There are no separate upper and lower receivers on an AK-47. Obviously, Agent Agalera didn't have a

61
00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:25,240
clue and magistrate Green failed to notice. Agent Agalera also stated that a neighborhood

62
00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:30,840
machine gun fire, but he didn't state that the McClin and County Sheriff had already investigated

63
00:06:30,840 --> 00:06:36,760
this claim and found that David Kuresh had a legal device called a Hellfire trigger that merely

64
00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:44,040
sounds like a machine gun, but is perfectly legal. Machine gun fire in itself is not evidence

65
00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:50,760
of illegal activity. It is legal to own a machine gun if the owner pays a $200 tax on the gun.

66
00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:57,480
But there was no evidence the branch Davidian's owned any machine gun at all. So, bottom line,

67
00:06:57,480 --> 00:07:04,920
the raid on February 28, 1993 was launched because the ATF merely suspected that the branch

68
00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:09,640
Davidian's might have a machine gun that they had failed to pay a $200 tax on.

69
00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:15,720
Branch Davidian Paul Fatham, who was responsible for many gun purchases states categorically.

70
00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:25,640
There is no 50 caliber machine gun out there. There is a 50 caliber gun that's a semi-automatic

71
00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:33,880
that was bought perfectly legal. Agalera also failed to mention that in July 1992, the ATF had

72
00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:39,720
inspected hewitt arms, a gun and gun parts store in Waco where the branch Davidian's had purchased

73
00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:47,640
225 guns. Henry McMahon, the former owner of hewitt arms, told Pete Zerales of the Mobile Press

74
00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:54,920
that when the ATF agents visited hewitt arms in July 1992, I called David and told him the agents

75
00:07:54,920 --> 00:08:01,000
have a problem with you buying some of the guns. He said, tell him to come on out. The ATF agents

76
00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:08,200
declined this offer. Magistrate Dennis Green, the only U.S. magistrate in Waco, and himself

77
00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:14,600
a former U.S. attorney issued the search warrant for the Mount Carmel property. An article in the

78
00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:21,400
August 30, 1992 Waco Tribune Harald revealed that the small town of Waco had an extraordinarily

79
00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:26,600
high rate of federal gun prosecutions compared to the rest of the nation under the direction

80
00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:34,200
of Bill Johnstone, the U.S. attorney in Waco. This high rate of prosecutions in Waco for gun

81
00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:40,360
law violations may welcome from the ATF's and Magistrate Green's ignorance of federal gun laws.

82
00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:46,280
Although agent Agalera claims in the affidavit to be experienced and to know about federal

83
00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:52,280
firearms laws, he confuses the meanings of the words machine gun, destructive device,

84
00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:59,000
explosive and explosive device, all of which have different specific meanings in the federal

85
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:07,000
law books. Magistrate Dennis Green failed to notice. Nonetheless, reporters at the Waco Tribune

86
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:12,280
Harald began a scandalous series of articles about the branched of Indians the day before the ATF

87
00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:18,360
raid. The reporters claim to have interviewed former cult members. The allegations sounded

88
00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:22,280
amazingly like the allegations of Mark Bro when the cult awareness network members.

89
00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:29,480
This diagram depicts the House at Mount Carmel as it appeared on the day of the raid by ATF

90
00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:38,120
on February 28, 1993. In press accounts, the ATF claim that the raid was moved up a day after the ATF

91
00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:44,280
learned that the Waco Harald Tribune had started its series the day before. This was the first of many

92
00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:51,400
outright lies. The warrant would expire if it was not served by February 28 and the raid took place

93
00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:58,040
on February 28. What you are about to see is the first film footage of the initial raid as it was

94
00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:03,720
provided to all the network television feeds. This film was heavily edited by someone before it

95
00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:08,920
was distributed across the networks. It contains obvious glitches where film has been cut out,

96
00:10:09,560 --> 00:10:14,680
but even this editing wasn't enough to remove the truth. We'll show these next three scenes,

97
00:10:14,680 --> 00:10:21,560
three times, watch closely. In the opening scene, agents are in position behind cars,

98
00:10:21,560 --> 00:10:26,840
shooting at the front of the house as two teams of four agents climb ladders on the side of the house

99
00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:29,880
to the roof.

100
00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:56,440
Now we'll be play what you just saw. Notice that there are no bullets hitting the ground or cars

101
00:10:56,440 --> 00:11:02,040
around any of these ATF agents. The three dark dots low on the horizon are helicopters.

102
00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:08,840
The sound of automatic weapons is coming from the M16 and MPU 5 machine guns used by the ATF

103
00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:12,840
agents.

104
00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:16,840
What's that?

105
00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:39,080
In the next scene, two teams of four agents were supposed to secure the roof within 30 seconds of arrival.

106
00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:49,000
Notice that no one is shooting at these agents as they climb the ladders.

107
00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:55,800
Several of these agents are carrying fully automatic rifles.

108
00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:06,920
The agent of the top right side just managed to shoot himself in the leg, did you see it? We'll watch that again.

109
00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:13,560
The nine millimeter pistols carried by the ATF have no safety protection on them. As the agent

110
00:12:13,560 --> 00:12:21,080
climbs the ladder, he reaches for its gun in the holster. It discharges wounding him in the leg

111
00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:25,480
and causing him to slip. He is able to continue up the ladder, however.

112
00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:32,440
According to ATF spokesman Reuster, the raid on Mount Carmel had been planned and rehearsed from

113
00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:40,360
a moment. They drilled over and over again and we had our plan down. We had a diversion down. All of a

114
00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:44,760
put into effect and they were waiting.

115
00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:52,600
Next we see three of the four agents on the roof breaking into the window.

116
00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:06,360
And we have a couple of them.

117
00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:13,960
We'll go back and give you another take then.

118
00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:27,240
Let's watch this part again. No one is shooting at these agents.

119
00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:31,800
The shooting you were hearing is from the agents on the ground in front of the house.

120
00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:38,920
Notice that the agent is carrying two types of grenades on his belt. He also is carrying a smoke grenade.

121
00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:43,320
Both agents of the window toss in what appear to be smoke grenades.

122
00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:14,520
After these agents get through the window and into the room, you will briefly see the fourth agent on

123
00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:20,920
the roof, followed by one of those badly edited cuts in the film. The film picks up with the fourth

124
00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:26,280
agent tossing something into the room. It makes no sense for him to be throwing anything at all

125
00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:31,800
into a room where the three ATF agents have just gone unless he intends to injure his own men.

126
00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:38,520
He also fires a machine gun into the room twice without looking. We'll watch it at normal speed,

127
00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:39,480
then slow it down.

128
00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:54,520
Now let's watch it in slow motion. Here he tosses something and with draws his hand from the window.

129
00:14:56,840 --> 00:15:03,160
Next without looking, he fires a burst from his machine gun into the room.

130
00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:12,440
Someone begins shooting from inside and bullet holes appear in the wall.

131
00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:20,120
In the midst of this gun fire, three holes appear at the same time.

132
00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:27,640
The agent fires his machine gun into the room a second time. He's then hit by a round.

133
00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:31,000
The bullet strikes him in his helmet on the backside of his head.

134
00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:42,120
He falls to the roof and grabs his head.

135
00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:49,160
This agent is not hurt and he later makes it safely down the ladder.

136
00:15:59,880 --> 00:16:04,600
Regardless of who is shooting from inside that room, this agent just threw what appears to have

137
00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:10,840
been a grenade and fired a machine gun twice into the room where his three fellow ATF agents have just gone.

138
00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:17,480
All three of the agents who were sent into the window were killed. All three were billed

139
00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:23,240
Clinton's bodyguards during his presidential campaign. A fourth agent was killed that day before

140
00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:25,800
the shooting started as he exited the cattle car.

141
00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:32,280
We're extremely proud of what happened out there. How are agents conducted himself?

142
00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:37,880
Under some unbelievable circumstances. They did a fantastic job.

143
00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:41,960
David Corrash says, no, just for the legacy they were scared.

144
00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:49,960
They had a plan for months. So I don't think there's really anything they did wrong.

145
00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:52,120
I said they had bigger guns than we did.

146
00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:58,920
Notice the MP5 and M16 machine guns and knife sheets on these ATF agents who claim to have been

147
00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:06,120
outgunned. On the day of the raid, 29 year old Mike Schroeder, a branched a video, had left the

148
00:17:06,120 --> 00:17:11,080
Mount Carmel Center that morning to go to work in town. He learned about the raid on the radio.

149
00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:17,080
His wife, Kathy Schroeder, and their four-year-old son were inside the Mount Carmel Center.

150
00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:21,800
Mike, along with Woody Kendrick's and Norman Allison, attempted to go home.

151
00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:27,000
Mike was shot seven times once through his eye, another through the heart,

152
00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:31,160
and five times in the back as he attempted to climb over the fence.

153
00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:37,000
Norman Allison was captured immediately. He told the ATF that Mike Schroeder had been killed.

154
00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:44,280
The official lie released to the news media claimed that the men started to shoot out as they tried

155
00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:49,720
to leave Mount Carmel. The story appeared on March 1st in the Associated Press and in the

156
00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:56,280
Waco-Herald Tribune on March 2nd. But even this March 1st story reported that one of the three men was killed.

157
00:17:56,680 --> 00:18:02,760
Documents filed in Norman Allison's indictment also plainly showed that the government knew the

158
00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:07,000
men were trying to get into the Mount Carmel Center not shooting their way out.

159
00:18:08,120 --> 00:18:14,680
These documents also prove that the government knew on February 28, 1993 that Mike Schroeder

160
00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:21,160
had been shot. Yet Mike's body was left hanging on a fence for days. His family wasn't notified

161
00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:27,880
of his death until five days later. On the fifth day Mike Schroeder's body,

162
00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:33,640
chewed by wild dogs and birds, was picked up on a grappling hook from a helicopter and transported

163
00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:39,320
like a side of beef on a meat hook. His mother was in Waco and she was finally notified of his

164
00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:44,760
death by telephone. His wife inside Mount Carmel was never notified of his death by the FBI.

165
00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:51,720
Peter Gensbody was left to top a water tower. It fell apart and dropped to the ground when the

166
00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:57,080
feds attempted to lift it with a grappling hook. The branched of itians buried what remained of his body.

167
00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:03,400
Two of the ATF's own agents sum up the ATF mentality pretty well.

168
00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:11,720
And the thing that I find totally abhorrent and disgusting is these higher-level people took that same

169
00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:19,720
and they violate the basic principles and tenets of the Constitution and laws and simple ethics

170
00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:27,320
and morality. That's what discussed me. In my career with ATF, the people that I put in jail

171
00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:33,160
have more honor than the top administration in this organization. I know it's a sad commentary,

172
00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:40,040
but that's my experience with ATF. On the fourth day, Jeff Jamar of the FBI is brought in to be in

173
00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:47,080
charge of the operation replacing the ATF. From this point on, all news people will be kept three

174
00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:53,560
miles away from the Mount Carmel Center. ATF agents armed with machine guns and state troopers

175
00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:59,160
are posted at Roblox to keep citizens five miles from the Mount Carmel Center. The only news

176
00:19:59,160 --> 00:20:04,440
that anyone in the United States will receive will be the official version told by Agent Bob Rick's

177
00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:11,880
of the FBI. It is illegal to use military troops against United States citizens under the Posse

178
00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:19,800
Kamatata's Act, 18 United States Code 1385, but the FBI brings in tanks from nearby Fort Hood,

179
00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:33,800
a US Army installation to surround the house. National guard troops and military equipment can be used

180
00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:40,200
in drug-introduction activities. Even though there was never any question of drug activity at Mount Carmel,

181
00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:46,600
as a ploy to avoid criminal penalties imposed by the Posse Kamatata's Act, the ATF claims

182
00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:53,320
there is a suspected Mithem Thedamine lab. Yet even after Texas Governor Anne Richards becomes aware

183
00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:58,920
that she was deceived by the ATF into consenting to the use of the tanks, she does not order the

184
00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:04,840
tanks off the property. From now on, the branched of Indians will have no contact with the outside

185
00:21:04,840 --> 00:21:12,280
world. The FBI orders all the utilities, lights, phone, water, gas and plumbing to the house

186
00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:20,600
to be disconnected. A telephone wired directly to the FBI is put in place. The FBI sets up a steady

187
00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:25,640
stream of torture directed at the branched of Indians, which included many small children inside

188
00:21:25,720 --> 00:21:31,800
the house. Bright stadium lights keep the house lit up 24 hours a day, as allowed speaker

189
00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:38,120
Blair's sounds of rabbits being slaughtered to bet in monk chance and Nancy Sinatra's song,

190
00:21:38,120 --> 00:21:45,880
these boots are made for walkin. One refrain of that song says, I just found me a brand new box of

191
00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:52,120
matches, yeah, and if you play with fire, you know you're going to get burned. Whenever a branched

192
00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:57,720
to video and falls into disfavor with the FBI, the tanks are used to crush the person's car,

193
00:21:57,720 --> 00:22:05,160
or in the case of the children, their go-carts as punishment. On March 27, the London Times runs

194
00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:11,480
an article describing the equipment used by the FBI. The British Strategic Air Services sends

195
00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:17,160
especially equipped plane to take thermal images of the insides of the house, allowing the FBI

196
00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:23,000
to see everyone who is inside by the heat reflected from their bodies. The FBI inserts

197
00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:29,160
fiber optic cameras into the walls of the house and into air vents. The fiber optic cameras

198
00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:35,720
are attached to transmitters that then broadcast the signal to the FBI receiver. The FBI can now

199
00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:45,480
see and hear everyone inside the house at all times. On April 19, 1993, the entire country saw

200
00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:50,920
live coverage of the fire at Mount Carmel. We were told that the FBI had decided to punch

201
00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:57,560
holes to insert a non-flammable CS gas to urge the mothers and children to come out. We were told

202
00:22:57,560 --> 00:23:03,560
this was done out of concern for the children. Shown here are some training scenes of the

203
00:23:03,560 --> 00:23:21,160
impact of CS gas on grown men.

204
00:23:21,160 --> 00:23:26,280
To understand the full impact of the following scenes, it is important to understand the layout

205
00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:33,480
of the Mount Carmel Center. The underground bunkers were not under the house. There was a cement

206
00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:38,520
tunnel that ran from a trap door in the into the house out to two main underground shelters out

207
00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:44,760
in the yard, one of which was in front of the water tower. Anyone who was inside either one of

208
00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:51,240
the underground bunkers should have been untouched by either fire or smoke. In this picture,

209
00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:55,960
this end of the house is where the trap door to the underground bunker was. This film was taken

210
00:23:55,960 --> 00:24:03,160
long before 6am the morning before the fire started. There is a large hole at the base of the building

211
00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:08,360
and the building has already been knocked off its foundation. There is a round hole in the side

212
00:24:08,360 --> 00:24:13,560
of the building. What appears to be a large blood splatter is visible on a wall on the other side.

213
00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:21,240
Something perhaps a curtain flaps from inside the building. Remember, with the sophisticated bugging

214
00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:27,960
and surveillance equipment the FBI used, the FBI knew where all of these people were at all times.

215
00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:38,520
They could see them and hear them.

216
00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:53,240
The underground bunker is in front of the water tower shown here before 6am.

217
00:24:58,360 --> 00:25:05,560
This tank was over the tunnel to the underground bunker. For more than two hours, a tank is over the

218
00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:11,320
underground bunker or at the hole in the corner of the house of the entrance to the tunnel. Each time

219
00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:17,160
the tank opens, agents can be seen getting in around and the camera filming it conveniently cuts away.

220
00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:25,960
At approximately 6am, smoke begins pouring from the underground bunker. None of the media mentions the fire

221
00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:32,840
in the underground bunker yet this is when and where the first fire began and where many people lost their lives.

222
00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:39,640
The official version of when things began starts here around 6am morning. There is a flag

223
00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:45,400
prompt against the door. The flag is not black and it is not wedged in the door as the media reported.

224
00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:52,680
It is a red and blue flag. Whatever it is, it appears to be a flag of a conqueror, not a flag set

225
00:25:52,680 --> 00:26:00,040
outside by the branch of Indians. The first tank that is sent in is a tank retriever. It has no

226
00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:05,560
apparatus to insert any kind of gas. It appears it precisely the time the smoke you saw earlier

227
00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:12,520
was seen coming from the underground bunker. It is not making so called small holes to insert gas.

228
00:26:12,520 --> 00:26:17,080
It is destroying the end of the house over the trap door that leads from the bunker,

229
00:26:17,080 --> 00:26:20,440
making sure that no one inside the now burning bunker can escape.

230
00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:26,920
A second hole is made in the side of the building and a third hole is made at the front door.

231
00:26:28,040 --> 00:26:33,160
What these tanks are doing in each picture is collapsing the inside stairwells.

232
00:26:34,120 --> 00:26:39,880
The following footage proves beyond any doubt that the tanks intentionally set the house on fire.

233
00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:47,000
It proves that the branched of Indians were murdered. Watch carefully as the tank backs out of the house.

234
00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:54,760
You can see that this tank has a gas jet on the front that shoots fire. You can also see the fire

235
00:26:54,760 --> 00:27:00,520
quite plainly. The tank goes into the house twice and each time as it backs out,

236
00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:06,280
the fire at the gas jet is plainly visible. In the scenes that were shown throughout the country

237
00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:11,400
it is the location where the fire supposedly started, smoke comes out a second story window.

238
00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:17,240
As flames erupt from the second story window, watch as a tank appears around the corner.

239
00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:22,040
There is an agent on this tank as if he had just left down onto the top of the tank.

240
00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:26,920
It is difficult to see the details on a television because the quality is poor,

241
00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:30,920
but in the studio, he can be seen removing a fireproof type hood.

242
00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:37,960
Another man is seen on the roof. The FBI claims that this man is a branched of Indian,

243
00:27:37,960 --> 00:27:43,960
however, watch as he jumps from the roof and walks away. The tape quality again is poor when

244
00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:49,880
it broadcasts on a television set, but in the studio while he is on the roof, he appears to take off a

245
00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:55,000
jacket. He jumps and lands on his feet. He very calmly walks away.

246
00:28:02,680 --> 00:28:05,000
As he walks, he can be seen removing a hood.

247
00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:19,400
He also appears to be carrying a rifle in his right hand. As the fire burns, helicopter circle

248
00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:27,000
over the center with men pointing guns out of the open doorways. Before, during and after the fire,

249
00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:31,800
none of the agents involved are at all concerned that there could be explosions or bullets in the

250
00:28:31,800 --> 00:28:37,240
house. In these next scenes you can plainly see agents walking in and out near the fire.

251
00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:35,400
In any ordinary crime scene, great pains are taken to preserve evidence. Here, tanks methodically

252
00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:45,800
push what remains of the house and evidence into the fire. The fire takes less than an hour to

253
00:29:45,800 --> 00:30:00,520
burn down the entire center. The fire is still smoldering at five that evening at agents walk in

254
00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:07,000
and around the fire. It is obvious that there is no genuine concern over the supposed millions of

255
00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:13,560
rounds of ammunition. Even though the FBI and the media consistently referred to this cement building

256
00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:20,040
as the bunker, the real bunkers were underground, as you were shown earlier. Many of the bodies

257
00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:26,600
that were found were found in the underground bunkers, not in the wellhouse. In one final

258
00:30:26,600 --> 00:30:32,920
crude and insensitive display, the ATF raised its flag in victory over the ruins of Mount

259
00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:40,600
Carmel before the day was over. One voice was heard that day telling the truth, Brad Branch,

260
00:30:40,600 --> 00:30:44,760
a branch to Vidian, who had left the Mount Carmel center before the day of the fire.

261
00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:48,760
Now that the story is not a finish enough to tell about it. Now that the story is not a

262
00:30:48,760 --> 00:30:53,640
destroying the crime scene, the mechanism is the biggest lie that has ever been put before the

263
00:30:53,640 --> 00:31:03,640
American public ever.
