Waco apocalypse

Eleven years later today, and the politics bloggers haven't paid it much attention -- but Palaeojudaica's Jim Davila has posted on it here (and who better than one well versed in the apocalyptic tradition?). Read it for yourself; when he states: "It's hard to imagine how the authorities could have done a worse job of dealing with David Koresh and his followers", one cannot but recall that no one was ever held responsible for this truly horrendous affair. And the deplorable lack of outrage among soi-disant sophisticates, who could not manage to eke out any sympathy for a group of "religious fanatics".
