I am hoping that all of you can try to keep it civil before the Moderators and Magda and David start having discussions.
I honor your mutual passion for truth.
OK, my question. I am not a researcher. But for the sake of my enlightenment and that of any others who are out there puzzled, could you three try to clarify what is at stake for you all. Maybe you could include something about the some of the basics about what you DO agree on? Would this take too much work?
Hi, Lauren,
I believe John Armstrong's Harvey and Lee is a breakthrough book about the Kennedy Assassination. For anyone who is not familiar with it, a pretty good synopsis can be found in the first few paragraphs here:
David can speak for himself, of course, but I think the two of us basically agree on John's work with the possible exception of the state of CIA involvement in the assassination. OTOH, as the top post on this page shows, I think Greg Parker misrepresents John's work, either deliberately or by simply not knowing what is in the book. In the first substantive squabble after Parker came here, he clearly, I think, misrepresented what is written in Harvey and Lee. Again, the first post on this page proves it, IMO.
That strikes me as disgraceful, but I'll try to reign in my anger and moderate the personal attacks. Thanks for being so calm.
Jim
