I totally agree Peter. It used to be that authors and journalists were not murdered. The thinking by the power elite was that only a few read this stuff so why bother killing the messenger. But now in this internet age and more people becoming aware there has been a shift. THis IS a war on investigative journalists and whistle blowers. Murdering Hastings was akin to murdering Dorothy Kilgallen. Both murders served a dual purpose. One of shutting down that story, and the more important reason: let the writer know that this could be his/her fate. With Dorothy it was her high profile that played a huge role. Unknown researchers/writers on the assassination were left alone in terms of murder. (Mostly). Since 9-11 we have seen the advance of fascism at an alarming rate. And most just fall for it, stand for it. This must have been how it was in Italy, Germany etc. I weep for the world our grand-daughters (13 and 10) will grow up into.
