TWA800? Waco?
What the hell is going on here? Why are we revisiting these things from the 90s, when there are unsettled things from this administration?
I see this as running interference for Obama. They take the important issues of today off the front page.
Waco and Flight 800 deserve review. Not now. Get Obama out of there and we can talk about these things.
Because it started there, and it never stopped.
Why, exactly, do you think every single Obama admin cog is an old Clintonista?
You might not believe that. Check it.
The biggest obstruction to justice in this administration has been Eric Holder.
Get him out of the picture, and some serious armor goes away.
He was Deputy Attorney General under Janet Reno when the Waco massacre occurred.
One of the deputy AGs had allegedly checked into the 'wisdom' of introducing CS with a methylene chloride carrier agent into the building, which was done with combat engineer vehicles. (Rep. Sonny Bono--later killed in a 'skiing accident' -had staffers look into that and found exposure would not be safe for the occupants, in just a few hours--and commented to that effect in the hearings.)
Allegedly, the DOJ at the time took a couple of days to look into the matter of using CS.
CS is banned in warfare, methylene chloride is an active ingredient in carburetor cleaners. Neither is good for children and other living things, and there were infants to adults in the building. Methylene Chloride burns well, too, and it wasn't long afterward that the facility, the inhabitants, and much of the evidence was incinerated.
With a frame structure which had an accelerant liberally sprayed inside, with holes which would act as a flue poked in the shell of the structure (and damaged the structure, making internal movement difficult), the use of pyrotechnic tear gas rounds virtually guaranteed a lethal conflagration, whether or not there was gunfire from outside to deter exit from the structure, as some have claimed.
You may recall all this, but I am pointing it out for the benefit of those who do not.
