I was reading some articles about it and I found the the facts that are recorded are different from what I remember.

Off the cuff Greekchatters, what do you remember about why the police went in there and ended up killing those people?
I understand that they just wanted to end the seige. They used tear gas which ignited and turned the tanks into flamethrowers.

I had an old boss who was watching the raw satellite footage and tells it differently -- that the tanks were blowing flames as they approached the building. I have learned, however, to take what he says with a grain of salt
