The Living Force
I just watched the 2018 mini series Waco.
It was a powerful and compelling story, based on the books of the chief FBI Negotiator Gary Noesner and Branch Davidian survivor David Thibodeau.
The series documents the use of pysops, as well as accounts by surviving members. There were several tactics, which were used to demoralize the members. For almost two months, there were flashing bright lights. Loud speakers played sounds of rabbits being slaughtered, the sound of a dentist's drill, and clips from talk shows about how David Koresh is much hated, played 24 hours a day.
"In February 1993, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms raids David Koresh's Branch Davidian compound, a small religious community located just outside of Waco, Texas, triggering a drawn-out gun battle that kills four ATF agents and six civilians and wounds dozens more people. After a 51-day standoff, the conflict ends when an FBI assault leads to a fire that engulfs the compound, killing 76 Branch Davidians, including Koresh. Told from the perspectives of those who were there, including chief FBI negotiator Gary Noesner and survivor David Thibodeau, the six-part scripted series "Waco" dramatizes one of the most misunderstood stories in American history.
