Creative Speculation

Let's start with the important one. You claim it doesn't matter.

It matters very much to anyone who values history. Your statement is nihilistic. If someone kills you tonight it doesn't matter who. If Obama is assassinated tomorrow, it doesn't matter who did it. Biden's president now. Forget it.

I find your position just terrible in dismissing the importance of the issue. Not only for the assassination, but it turns out that there are very important areas of our history related to the investigation, involving the CIA and military, organized crime, Cuba and more.

I thought it was a pretty popular sentiment about not understanding history and its lessons helping repeat them. Not with everyone.

Having said that and that the issue should be considered important - unfortunately, the lack of clear answers gets in the way of the lessons.

I'd say you should read the books I mentioned in the OP, but I guess not since you aren't interested.

But your lack of interests suggests you don't need to post that in the thread.

If there's a thread on some issue in some country I'm not interested in, I don't expect to post in the thread, it doesn't matter - unless there is some reason to.

As to your theory, one thing we do know is that it's not correct. I'm referring to your over-simplification, such as 'sick'.

That's a nice non-answer to the issue that doesn't really answer anything. It doesn't understand that Oswald had pursued his idea of Marxism for years, how the communist bloc views fed into his opinions, his attempted assassination of General Walker.

Your statement is like saying all we need to learn about Hitler is he was a sick guy who decided to start a war. Simple.

No need to understand anything about the political systems, the psychology of authoritarianism and terror, the role of bigotry and scapegoating in societies, the concept of genocide.

Nevemind one of the basic idea behind the European Union was to strengthen ties among European countries to help prevent any more wars after two world wars - waste of time. Hitler was a sick guy who started a war, that's all.

You are entitled not to have any interest in the topic, but that's your issue, the topic is an important one. Maybe you should be helping your children get an interest in the history instead of just saying they don't care.
