Speech: What You Need to Know About Waco with Scott Horton…
In 1993 the US Federal government murdered 86 men, women and children in a show of force. Since then the FBI and ATF have tried to cover their tracks by pinning the deaths on “religious extremism” and David Koresh. In this talk Scott Horton will tell you the truth about that day. Speaker: Scott Horton, Scott Horton is director of the Libertarian Institute, editorial director of Antiwar.com, host of Antiwar Radio on Pacifica, 90.7 FM KPFK in Los Angeles, California and podcasts the Scott Horton Show from ScottHorton.org.
Scott Horton Waco Documentary:
Scott Horton has produced and hosted extensive coverage of the 1993 Waco tragedy, most notably a 13-hour special production titled “The Waco Tragedy” released for the 30th anniversary, which features interviews with survivors, experts, and journalists. This comprehensive project includes discussions on infrared footage analysis, the ATF raid, the 51-day siege, and the April 19 fire, challenging the official government narrative.
Key documentaries and segments featured in his work include:
Waco: The Rules of Engagement: A seminal film by Dan Gifford that scrutinizes the forward-looking infrared (FLIR) footage, which Horton has repeatedly highlighted to question the government’s account of the final day.
Waco: A New Revelation: A follow-up film that presents a cleaner copy of the infrared footage, suggesting flashes were gunfire rather than solar reflections, a point further analyzed by engineer **Barbara Grant**.
When the Government Lied: Waco’s Infrared Deception: A documentary by Barbara Grant that uses her expertise in radiometry to argue that federal agents fired on Branch Davidians during the siege’s final moments.
Horton’s interviews with figures such as David Thibodeau (a surviving Branch Davidian), Jim Bovard, Dan Gifford, David Hardy, and Barbara Grant provide a detailed alternative perspective on the events, covering the Branch Davidians’ theology, the FBI’s tank and gas attacks, and subsequent cover-ups. These resources are available on scotthorton.org and YouTube, often serving as primary sources for those investigating the incident beyond mainstream media accounts.
