What happened in Waco, TX was not suicide, it was murder.
Real murder of American Citizens during President Clinton's Presidency.
FACT....

They look at those events and use them to call the folks at Waco a "cult", while at the same time dismissing any notion that their own religious clique is cultish in the least. The truth is that ALL religious organizations are cultish by definition, being inclusive of the "like-minded" and dismissive or violent toward the "other-minded". David Koresh was clearly nuts, but how were his actions different from those of Israel when attacked by Palestinian extremists?

There have been more recent mass suicided by cults since the mass suicide in Waco. Remember Heaven's Gate? http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00000IXCA/themetapsycholog
