Canadian journalist and author Barrie Zwicker was once asked this question: "Do you take offense at the term 'conspiracy theorist'?" Zwicker replied, "I welcome being called a conspiracy theorist, as this exposes the intellectual bankruptcy of the person applying it and provides me with an opportunity to point out that intellectual bankruptcy."
Part One: The Men Who Killed Robert F. Kennedy
In memory of Robert F. Kennedy, who was killed 40 years ago today, I present a fifteen-minute BBC report from November 2006 (scroll down). Once you've watched it, most of you will agree that the evidence presented is very difficult to refute.
Fifteen minutes is a very short period of time. You could be finished watching this report before you have even finished your first glass of wine or beer. So please consider taking some time out of your regular routine in order to enlighten yourself as to what is almost certainly the truth. We owe it to ourselves and to his memory to learn what really happened that day.
Part Two: The Men Who Killed John F. Kennedy
Each video segment in this section is just over nine minutes in length (for the sake of avoiding a slow browsing experience I am only creating links to these YouTube videos instead of embedding them).
There are three episodes in this truly excellent series, but I have only included Episodes 1 and 3. Episodes 1 and 2 were aired on the History Channel a few years ago, but a very influential family (you'll guess who when you watch it) forced the History Channel at the last second not to air Episode 3 (coincidentally, the History Channel has become little more than a pathetic joke in the days since they aired this series). Luckily, some civic-minded person put all three episodes on YouTube in November 2006, and I watched them at that time.
I first heard about the theory that is expressed in (the censored) Episode 3 in about 1990 when a native Texan and her South Dakota husband, who had been in the Air Force in Texas, told me about it. They said that large numbers of Texans believe it. They completely believe it too and were determined to convince me. I was polite and open-minded (they were my close friends, after all), but I didn't believe a word of what they said. Episode 3 set me straight. It starts out a little too abruptly with its theory, which may put the viewer on the defensive, as it did me, but it soon gathers lots of steam and leaves little, if any, room for doubt. Episode 1 does a great job of setting the stage for Episode 3.
If a skeptic watches these videos and still has any doubts afterward, then I don't know what to say to that person. The same holds true of the very convincing segments on Robert F. Kennedy.
