Complete tripe. I studied history at one of the finest universities in the world under one of the most famous historians of the 20th century Sir Hugh Trevor Roper. You know NOTHING about what I know about history Holmes, but I'll wager it is rather a lot more than you.

Then tell us why you made such an historically unsound statement?

Why did you claim that it "beggars belief" that members of the Secret Service could have been involved in the murder of a President? You claim now to know history, and you cannot possibly deny that history is filled with examples of a security detail killing their primary.

And despite the fact that I've given easily researched historical examples - you refuse to retract your statement... why is that, Patrick?

Again complete nonsense. I am NOT denying that leaders have been assassinated by their protectors and double crossed over the ages - why would I deny that....? What a ridiculous thing to say.

And yet, this is PRECISELY what you did. You stated, (and snipped out of this post): "the idea that individuals in the US SS were part of a plot to kill JFK...beggars belief."

You quite clearly now admit that it doesn't beggar such belief historically, so why are you now denying your claim?

I've presented historical evidence that proves you either lied, or you're ignorant of history.

What is not "intelligent" about that?

And why have you refused to defend your claim that "the idea that individuals in the US SS were part of a plot to kill JFK...beggars belief." - after I've presented the evidence that demolishes it?
 

WHY DOES IT "BEGGAR BELIEF" - WHEN YOU ADMIT THE TRUTH THAT HISTORY TEACHES US?
