Original Bill Cooper - Waco II #1

In this special broadcast of the Thomas Paine Podcast, host Bill Cooper presents a long-lost audio recording from Linda Thompson's 1993 videotape 'Waco II: The Big Lie Continues,' which he recently discovered among thousands of unopened videotapes. The tape, never before aired on 'The Hour of the Time,' exposes what Cooper claims is a government cover-up of the 1993 Waco siege. He details how the ATF and FBI misrepresented the events, including the use of armed helicopters, the falsification of evidence, and the suppression of media access. Cooper highlights the contradiction between the official narrative and on-the-ground footage, such as the altered photos of a child at the scene, the presence of a .308 machine gun on a government helicopter, and the fact that the Branch Davidians were not the aggressors. He also reveals that the government's so-called independent investigation was compromised by officials with prior ties to the MOVE bombing in Philadelphia. Cooper emphasizes that the raid was a premeditated military assault on a religious community, not a rescue mission, and that the government lied about the children's safety, the timing of the raid, and the presence of weapons. The episode ends with a fiery call to action, urging Americans to resist unconstitutional authority and defend their constitutional rights with force if necessary.
