We identify The Holocaust as the evil act it actually was. But we're looking at The Holocaust objectively. From the subjective viewpoint the perpetrators of The Holocaust believed they were the good people doing good things and that their victims were evil. We, the advocates of Liberty take the objective position and identify The Waco Massacre as the act of state terror that it actually was. But the common narrative has taken the subjective point of view and identifies the perpetrators of massacre as the good guys.
What has happened is a clearly unpunished crime.
Here's two thousand words why I will never vote for The Democratic Party.
There's a right way to with deal someone like Koresh and it wasn't followed. An Objectivist has to oppose David Koresh and his followers, but was it necessary to kill them? No.
Today is the anniversary of the event commonly known as the Waco Massacre.
What happened?
The local office of the BATF received a report of automatic weapons fire at the residence of Branch Davidians outside of Waco, Texas. No inquiry was made with the local law enforcement agencies. Nor did they as allowed under the current regulations send agents out to inspect the federally licensed firearms dealer residing on the site. And they could've arrested Koresh as he made his morning run but didn't do so. With his past history of cooperation with local law enforcement they could've simply asked him to come down to the local sheriff’s station. Instead they attempted to stage a military style assault, code named Operation Showtime, in order to impart a positive impression of the agency upon the current administration in Washington. Some Federal bureaucrats apparently wanted to feel important. After the task force was driven off the Hostage Rescue Team of the FBI descended upon the Branch Davidians and laid siege to the residence.
On April 19th the HRT used armored vehicles to destroy the exits from the building and to allow the wind to blow through it and then injected CS gas, known to be inflammable and toxic to children and elderly persons, into the wooden structure. The HRT fired CS rounds, which are incendiary devices into, the building. A tactic to commit mass murder used by the SS-Einsatzgruppen in Poland and Russia was to confine civilians, especially women and children, in wooden buildings and set the structures on fire. To this day the perpetrators remain at large or have been allowed to die in peace.
The
U.S. Army rifle platoon I trained with in 1982 could have secured
the structure without killing any of the children or the elderly
adults. Yes it was possible that some of us actual soldiers could have
been
wounded or killed in the action. But that's part of the hazards of the
job.
The Waco Massacre was a demonstration on the part of Big Bubba of
the existence of the means to carry out Marxist style state terror and
the existence of the will to use it.
There
are some who believe that because I don't believe in God or Jesus
Christ I shouldn't object to the Waco Massacre. But from an objective
perspective an act of state terror, like the Waco Massacre, remains an
act of state terror.
The other anniversary today is of the bombing of the Federal Building in Oklahoma City in 1995. Timothy McVeigh who carried out the Oklahoma City bombing was a white racial collectivist and was acting out the white racial warrior martyrdom fantasy depicted in The Turner Diaries.
The novel, if I recall reading it correctly, depicts the conquest and subjugation of the white population of the United States by a self appointed elite group that called itself "The Order." All non-whites, including Jews, were exterminated. Any white person who refused to obey The Order was executed as a race traitor. The actions of The Order as depicted in the novel were very much like the practice of Islam without the claim of divine sanction. Unlike today's political Right, but like all known collectivists, such as the National Socialists of Germany, The Order rejected all of the Rights of Man and killed anyone who served no place in their collective. Fortunately, I read it on a website where the text was posted. So apart from the fee for Internet access, I didn't have to pay a cent to read it. I would later describe the experience of reading it as being the intellectual equivalent of the act of swimming in raw sewage. The website and text is gone now. I think this is somewhat unfortunate because I believe that no rational person should have to pay a cent for the privilege of reading a book that calls for their own murder.

I reposted on THE NEW RESISTER an article about the Waco Massacre that was originally published on the Libernet Mailing List in 1993.

We have to understand that a firearm is simply a tool. A firearm is simply a means to a Human end. The Human end is freedom, this is the opposition to tyranny. Tyrants want and need to disarm their victims. Tyrants need victims. Victims don’t need tyrants.
Koresh,
if he was alive, would clearly be an enemy of an Objectivist. But
someone has to speak for him. The massacre of the Branch Davidians was a
deliberate act of state
terror which was carried straight out of the collectivist ruler
handbook. The purpose was to demonstrate to all the consequences of
disobeying the collectivists who then occupied the White House.
Comrade McVeigh and
the current occupant of the White House, Comrade Biden, are firmly
seated on the
Collectivist side of the aisle. If we have anything to thank subsequent
Republican presidents for it's for doing nothing. Our so-called
president, Joe Biden, wants to appoint a perpetrator of Waco Massacre to
head the BATF.
And if you think that attitude and ideology is uniquely Clintonistic I will you disabuse you of that notion:
Since then the name “Democrat” has become in my mind synonymous with the concept of “murderer.” If there's one complaint I have about President Bush or President Trump it is that they've done nothing to bring the perpetrators of this atrocity to justice.
Nothing. At. All.
"Conformity will be the only virtue and any man who refuses to conform will have to pay the penalty."

We are still waiting for justice.
