WACO, THE FBI LIED AND THE ATTORNEY GENERAL OF THE UNITED STATES LIED
(Mr. TRAFICANT asked and was given permission to address the House
for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. TRAFICANT. Madam Speaker, in 1993, 86 civilians were killed in
Waco, Texas. Twenty-four of them were innocent children. Most of them
burned to death. Until this day, no one knows the truth about Waco, and
the reason is quite clear. The FBI lied and the Attorney General of the
United States lied. They lied and they covered it up. And after all of
these lies, no one, nobody, has been held accountable for the massacre
at Waco.
{time} 1015
Beam me up, Mr. Speaker; an America that turns its back on Waco is an
America that turns its back on freedom and justice. An independent
investigation is absolutely warranted to solve this cover-up and get to
the truth.
I yield back all the lies at the Justice Department.
