Alright heres where everybody has to fess-up. What Conspiracy theory intrests you most and which do you believe or lend some credence to?For me it's the JFK assassination. I think Oswald did it, but I don't believe he was alone in the whole thing.

😆 😆I'd have to say Area 51. There were definitely UFO's and ET's that landed...I thinkÂ
What about the Man in the Iron Mask? Who was he? Did this episode really influence the creation of our Eighth Amendment?
I have to agree with Stumpfoot. I have been a shooter for about 60 years. I have a 1000 yard rifle range on the farm and am familiar with the Italian Carcano rifle. In my opinion it is a piece of junk. To accurately hit a moving target with that rifle at any distance would be difficult. Also, I think Castro was retaliating for the several attempts made on his life by US agents. I also think Jack Ruby silenced Oswald to prevent him from possibly giving away anyone else who was involved.
Did Roosevelt know in advance that the Japs were going to attack Pearl Harbor, and did he let them just to get the U.S into the war?
John E RebI think FDR wanted the USA to enter the war but had to be sure that we did not fire the first shot.(As Lincoln did at Ft Sumpter) A good book on the subject is Day Of Deceit by Robert B. Stinnett. Info on Jap movements was being withheld from Adm. Kimmell and Gen. Short who were made scapegoats. FDR knew that a Japanese attack was coming but probably did not realize the intensity and ferocity that was unleashed. I think it is significant that all the valuable carriers were at sea and out of harm's way. He probably thought the battlewagons could hold their own in a fight. The American public was against entering a foreign war but would not stand for being attacked.
I watched a program on the history channel on that very subject, and just like you said H.H. the two in charge were held responsible when they had no intel or warning from Washington.

I got to shoot one about 25 years ago... not the kind of rifle for that kind of work... it was a pretty good jack handle. I agree with your other points though the thouht that LBJ had something to do with it (also on History Channel) is pretty far out. What about the Vince Foster thing; another bag of cats.... Wally
