Frank Mdlalose, who also is
Inkatha's chairman, has been us

nod to tradition-minded Zulus

KwaZulu-Natal, heartland of

Lawyer: Waco deal was set
WASHINGTON
The FBI and defense lawyers negotiated a
surrender agreement that would have end
ed the siege near Waco, but “some desk
bound bureaucrat in Washington” overrode
the decision, one of the Branch Davidian
lawyers said on Tuesday.
The plan “was going to take another 10 to
12 days” to execute and called for cult leader
David Koresh to surrender first to prove to
followers that they would not be executed by
government agents, lawyer Jack
Zimmermann told a congressional hearing.
As Koresh’s Branch Davidians left the com
pound, they were to pass through metal
detectors, be placed in plastic wrist restraints,
and put on a bus for transportation to a
hearing before a federal magistrate,
Zimmermann said.
“We had a deal. We were going to do it,”

Inkatha said Sunday that if it

followers seemed reluctant to
take what he called “bold and
final” action without first trying
to achieve their goals through
the current legislature.
Buthelezi softened Sunday,
saying negotiations with the
smaller parties in parliament
should continue, and that resort
ing to new elections would only
follow a “long process.”
The ANC had accused Inkatha
of cheating in the provincial elec

vote, but recently themselves
called for new elections in
KwaZulu-Natal.
added Zimmermann, who represented
Koresh’s lieutenant, Steve Schneider.
Away from the hearing, Zimmermann
said the surrender agreement was reached
about 10 days before the siege ended. Rich
ard Scruggs, an assistant to Attorney Gen
eral Janet Reno, said away from the hear
ing that the surrender offer was “just anoth
er delaying tactic by Koresh.” Scruggs said
that after waiting for more than 2 weeks for
a peaceful surrender, “the bureau agentsin
the field decided that it was just another one
of Koresh’s lies and misrepresentations and
he was not going to come out.”
On April 19, 1993, the FBI filled the
compound with tear gas in an attempt to
force an end to the 51-day standoff near
Waco, Texas. After a fire swept the building,
Koresh, Schneider and 79 others were found
dead in the ashes.

Ms. O'Leary mentioned that
she would like to locate a facility
for tritium production at the Sa

sive research will be necessary.
“If you can't site it (properly) you
can'tbuild it, and it can’t do what
you want.”

and the American people for the

TV show’s dancers bhoogie
outside Aryan Nations meeting
HAYDEN LAKE, idaho
(AP) Filmmaker Michael
Moore, who made the tongue-in
cheek documentary “Roger and
Me,” brought a troupe of ethnic
dancers to boogie outside a white
supremacist gathering.
Moore traveled to the Aryan
World Congress north of here on
Friday to gather footage for his
new FOX comedy show, “TV
Nation.”
While Aryan Nations head Rev.
Richard Butler addressed those
inside the compound, Moore’s
team of a half dozen female danc
ers performed on the road out
side, KXLY-TV reported.
No incidents were reported.
About 90 people are attending
step at a time. Part of that, she
said is “(getting) the numbers
right” from the beginning, in
stead of having to ask for more
and more money as the years go
by. She likened the process to
that of looking for a plumber;
instead of jumping in and only
thinking about the cost when the
work is done, she said, it is best
to know the cost before the work
is started.
But, in the midst of reducing
cost, she said, it is necessary to
avoid sacrificing “service and
outcome.”
It is also important, she said,
toget a clear picture of “what the
community looks like,” in order
to encourage diversity.

“Roger & Me,” focused on the

“TV Nation” began its eight
