Mr. Schweitzer,
You and I did not see eye-to-eye when we discussed this before. We had a rather lively exchange where I repeatedly pointed out several of your
misconceptions regarding the late Colonel L. Fletcher Prouty's work. Over time we disengaged from debate with each other and had at least come
to, what I thought was, an amicable parting--albeit not a resolution of fundamental differences. Those differences were not minor, rather they were
rudimentary, including: interpretation of evidence, understanding of operational trade-craft, deep political analysis of events on multiple levels -- to
name just a few.
So, I was quite taken aback by your several "PM requests for friendship" prior to your first posts to this forum? I don't know you. I don't agree with
your stated positions. And I have not had a very pleasant experience when sharing or exchanging research with you so far. Don't misunderstand, I do
not consider you an enemy by any means. That label--like the label "friend"--needs to be earned.
