Despite over $1 trillion in costs and the majority of Americans opposing escalation, President Obama continues to move towards increased military action in Afghanistan.

To move forward in Afghanistan, President Obama needs to explain the stakes, the aim of the war, the costs and his definition of success.

feels like there should be more free content. nobody who doesn't already agree with the message will pay. it's a noble effort. i agree with the message but don't feel the truth should be bought and sold.

Three new pieces of evidence have surfaced recently and will be presented on Discovery - "Did the mob kill JFK?" - Sunday, 22 Nov, [hmmm] 8PM. In @ 1959/60 Eisenhower authorized Nixon to develop plan to overthrow Castro. It was intended to be the original "October Surprise." We would overthrow Castro in Oct 1960 and Nixon would be swept into office in Nov. It was a cooperative effort of the CIA, the Mafia, and the Administration. Nixon lost. After the Bay of Pigs debacle and the missile confrontation, Kennedy took over the plan, but cut out the Mafia. They would have no say/control in a new Cuban government; no carte blanche on casinos and other illegal ventures. A true democracy would be established. The 3rd highest member of Castro's govt was fully cooperating. One of the lead CIA operatives in the Cuban project was E Howard Hunt and, directly under him, Bernard Barker. Barker had mob connections back to the 1940s! The names ring any bells yet? Say - Watergate! If I heard correctly, Sunday's show will present documented evidence Baker was on the infamous "grassy knoll" in Dallas that fateful day. The Kennedy plan was to occur on 2 December. Kennedy had to be stopped!

This is unsettled - and crucial - history. Most of America has been content to accept the wholly implausible "single bullet theory." They forget, or ignore, or never noticed there was a bipartisan re-investigation @ 1992 which I believe concluded there was sufficient evidence to suggest there may have been conspiracy. However...they did not pursue it. The authors have been researching the assassination for 20 years and have accumulated massive documentation through declassified government documents, interviews, and open contemporaneous records. This story will go largely unreported...unnoticed, unless the public forces it into the open...and demands the declassification of the remaining MILLION documents. It has been almost 50 years. There is no plausible national security justification for this..it is a cya to protect CIA, FBI, etc...
