Something I posted to another 9-11 board yesterday...Came across an article today that puts things in a humbling perspective for me. Written less than a year after JFK's assassination, it has all the facts to prove the official theory was bunk. It has all the evidence to demonstrate a continuing cover-up. Without the benefit of the internet, it manages to put together a collection of data points no weaker than any of the major 9-11 researchers'.
It was not written by a theologian, an ex-cop or an ex-convict (that's Jim Hatfield, if you're wondering, author of "Fortunate Son"). In fact, the author was easily one of the greatest minds of the 20th century. And apparently a home-grown conspiracy theorist nutjob, too: Bertrand Russell. Do look, because this is precisely where we are today:
http://www.john-f-kennedy.net/16questions.htmWithin less than a year Russell had arrived at the point where we have been stuck for some time regarding the events of 9-11 and 7-7. He proved to a reasonable person that there was much more to JFK's death than the Warren report was letting on, and that an the cover-up was ongoing. Like some 9-11 researchers today, Russell was not trying to put forth any specific theory on who, how and why, but left off at the point where the official story was a smouldering heap of ash.
If you don't read the whole thing - and it's lengthy - do read the last paragraph. Because we are right there, right now.
I wrote that because two things seemed significant to me: one, that the history is really repeating itself, and two, that Bertrand Russell, a scientist of world fame, did not shrink from the facts or from the threat of ridicule, that he was so outspoken, even though the topic was well out of his purview. We don't have a Bertrand Russell today.
But there is also: three. Even he didn't make any difference then. Shall we stand back and try to figure out what went wrong and how we can do better this time?
