regarding what really happened at Waco. There is something called rule of law and a court system to process criminals. Surely, our mighty government can be more decent when trying to deal with its wayward citizens rather than isolating, threatening and possibly killing people in a private compound in a way that multiplies the questions and leads to cynicism about government intent.
If Koresh can be taken down for not toeing the party line, ANYONE can. Hence, so much for religious freedom and tolerance.
As for Guantanamo Bay, it needs to be kept open. After all, we need SOMEWHERE to imprison Bush, Cheney and Cabal.
