Another high-profile American terrorist who has been named by Iran's Parliament (Majlis) is Thomas J. Pickard, the director of FBI in 2001, who played a major role in the violent massacre of the members of Davidian branch on April 19, 1993.
On February 28, 1993, the United States Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives attempted to execute a search warrant at the Branch Davidian branch at Mount Carmel, located 9 miles east-northwest of Waco, Texas. As the ATF failed to execute the search warrant, a siege was implemented by FBI which lasted 50 days and finally ended with an incursion into the Davidians' compound which claimed the lives of 74 members of this sect including 20 children, two pregnant women and the sect leader David Koresh.
This massacre became a stigma in the history of FBI and now it's time for its perpetrators to be held accountable for what they committed 18 years ago.
