I removed the bit about the name ("son of God meaning death" or something like that). David indicated his claimed descent from King David, while Koresh is Hebrew for Cyrus, who was referred to by deutero-Isaiah as the Messiah. Danny 01:48, 17 Oct 2003 (UTC)

Ok thanks. I think the "son of God meaning death" was based on a book published by his former right-hand man that I read a long time ago. I may have just remembered wrong. Pakaran 05:35, 17 Oct 2003 (UTC)

Removed the phrase "M16" - that's US military hardware, not among the allegations of the warrant used to justify the ATF raid. No M16s were found after the fire. The FBI claimed 48 illegal automatic weapons but never allowed independent testing of this evidence to determine if they would, in fact, fire full-auto.
