Malcolm,
That was a thoughtful and well expressed post.
Charles,
You astutely recognized the way your response will be perceived by most readers here. Are you satisfied with sounding that way? Maybe you could inject a dose of humility or self deprecation here or there? That would make your eminently reasonable views so much more accessible and impressive.
Btw, you, and Monk, and Peter, as well as others, consistently allude to "the war" we are engaged in. Now I certainly consider those who killed JFK to be my enemies, and the enemies of everything worthwhile in a society. But you don't specify how YOU are waging this war. How are you fighting this battle, other than posting on the internet? Nothing wrong with that, of course, that's pretty much what we're all doing. But you infer that there is something more going on there, behind the scenes perhaps, but certainly unknowable to the typical readers of these threads. Please elaborate.
I am finishing up a book about the past fifty years of cover ups and scandals, and I consider that time period to have been one huge conspiracy, consisting of numerous smaller plots, seemingly unconnected, but all an integral part of what I feel is systemic, organized corruption. I like to think I'm pretty well versed on these topics, but your vague, esoteric replies leave me as baffled as Malcolm and I'm sure many others who are just realizing how much they've been lied to by their leaders.
I don't really expect you to elaborate, as that seems to be your style. That's fine- you're a unique character and we need more individuals like you. That being said, I think a lot of people would benefit from you sharing your wisdom.
