Day 46 of the Waco Standoff

April 14, 1993
From 10:21 a.m. to 11:32 a.m., DeGuerin and Zimmerman spoke over the telephone to Koresh and Schneider. The attorneys advised the FBI at the end of this conversation that Koresh had established a new precondition for his coming out. Koresh would only come out after he finished writing a manuscript which explained the Seven Seals.
In the afternoon, there was a meeting in FBI Director Sessions' office to brief the Attorney General on the military and medical perspectives of the proposed plan to insert CS gas into the compound. Two military experts provided their assessments of the plan, while a medical doctor summarized the results of studies of the effects of CS gas, particularly on children, pregnant women, and the elderly.(8)
Pursuant to an inquiry from the Attorney General, the FBI began to gather information about the compound's water supply. The Attorney General wanted to know how long the Davidians could hold out if the status quo continued.
There were ongoing conversations with individuals in the compound throughout the day and evening, but no progress was made.

(The Myth: Here’s more evidence that they were planning to gas the Davidians and their kids all along!

[The Truth: This is the 46th day of the siege. The FBI hadnow spent more than a month trying to talk the Davidians out of their compound but everytime they tried, Vernon would preach at them. The FBI didn’t want to hear a rock star wannabee’s ravings that he was Jesus Christ. They wanted his murdering ass out face-down on the ground. NOW.]
