Never mind the ill fated decisions made after the siege began I keep going back to the initial warning, to Koresh, coming from a lost reporter, media person, inquiring about it to one of his Branch Davidians who then warned Koresh. That and the inside person warning that the raid should be cancelled or postphoned given the inside knowledge he had about their weapons and their intent to fight any raid. It was failure to listen to their own, most/best informed, employee.
Kinda like police brutality
