You see this is the fictional bullshit which allows the government to get away with wrong doing.
It is not a tank it is an M88 recovery vehicle, essentially a large wrecker or tow truck for damaged/disabled tanks and other armored vehicles. They are not equipped with weapons especially flame throwers.
there is no explaining it away because it is a ludicrous and stupid lie to claim it had a flame thrower and the film shows no such thing.
How blind do you have to be to deny what the video very clearly shows?
There is no honest way to spin what happened in Waco as anything other than a horrendous and unmitigated act of mass murder on the part of the government, accompanied by a host of other lesser crimes leading up to it. Every government agent who had any part in this ought to have been charged with multiple[le murders, and put to death.
At least Janet Reno is now in Hell, where, hopefully, she will spend all eternity feeling her skin and her lungs being burned with no relief.
