摘要

摘要：2023年是82名大卫教派信徒（包括他们的22个孩子）和4名酒精、烟草和枪支管理局特工在德克萨斯州韦科郊外大卫教派卡梅尔山中心的一场冲突中死亡30周年。1993年2月28日，ATF特工与大卫教派分支发生枪战后，联邦调查局特工接管并主持了一场持续51天的围攻。围攻于1993年4月19日结束，联邦调查局的坦克和CS毒气袭击了大卫教派分支的住所六个小时，最终引发大火。在这篇“韦科回顾”中，得克萨斯州记者迪克·J·雷维斯，《韦科的灰烬》（1995年）的作者，分享了他对卡梅尔山中心冲突的观察，以及杰夫·奎恩最近出版的《韦科：大卫·科雷什、大卫教派和愤怒的遗产》（2023年）。尽管自1993年以来写了很多书，但卡梅尔山中心的复杂事件并没有得到确切的描述。

Retrospective on Waco

ABSTRACT:The year 2023 marks the thirtieth anniversary of the deaths of eighty-two Branch Davidians, including their twenty-two children, and four agents with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms (ATF) in a conflict at the Branch Davidians’ Mount Carmel Center property outside Waco, Texas. After the shootout between ATF agents and Branch Davidians on February 28, 1993, FBI agents took over and presided over a siege that lasted fifty-one days. The siege ended on April 19, 1993 with the FBI’s tank and CS gas assault on the Branch Davidians’ residence for six hours that concluded in a massive fire. In this “Retrospective on Waco,” Texas journalist Dick J. Reavis, author of The Ashes of Waco (1995), shares his observations on the conflict at Mount Carmel Center, and on the recent book, Waco: David Koresh, the Branch Davidians, and a Legacy of Rage (2023), by Jeff Guinn. Despite all the books written since 1993, no definitive account of the complex events at Mount Carmel Center has been published.
