James DiEugenio Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 (edited) Twelve hours ago I asked FC to please show me where I said that there was nothing of substance that was released in the new documents from October. This is what he says I said in an interview. I am still waiting for his reply to that query. Edited December 11, 2018 by James DiEugenio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
François Carlier Posted December 11, 2018 Author Share Posted December 11, 2018 12 hours ago, James DiEugenio said: Can you please show me where I said what you write that I did say? That is there was nothing os any substance in the new documents. I would like to hear someone ask me the question and I replied as you just said I did. Because I do not recall saying that. I did say that many should not have been withheld, and many are still redacted. But when asked if there was anything substantial in there, I do not recall saying there was nothing there. Now, if you listened to everything I said on this subject since last October, can you please show me where I said that? There's a misunderstanding, there. I do not claim that you said anything of the sort. I say that, to the best of my knowledge, there was no "smoking gun", nothing of substance in the newly-released documents. I have listened to all that you have said about it on the radio and it is my conclusion that you have not unearthed anything that might alter the Warren Commision's conclusions in any way, shape or form. But that was expected. As I said -- and as Vincent Bugliosi has perfectly underlined -- no document could possibly show anything that would change the facts about Oswald's already well-proven guilt. But I understand that you disagree with me. [I did sort of quote you when I said that you talked about a document about an interview with the redaction of the name of the person interviewed. And I do agree with you : it must be very frustrating for a researcher to discover such redacted documents !]. But, as John Wayne would say : that don't change the truth none ! 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paz Marverde Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 Carlier, once again: two really important people – and I do mean really important – said that the so called magic bullet theory was total crap. Who are they? Just tell me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James DiEugenio Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 (edited) This is what FC said that I said: Quote At any rate, even you, James DiEugenio were unable to find anything of substance in the documents. This is not what I said on any shows. I was asked several times to mention some of the new revelations in the declassified documents from October 2017. I mentioned several new documents that had new information in them that were of substance to the case. These dealt with the CIA's reporting on Mexico City, the relationship between Ruby and Oswald, that the CIA destroyed Clay Shaw's 201 file, and the ultimate revealing in 2017 that Earle Cabell was a CIA asset since 1959. And those are just some of the important documents. I have not been through all of them as of now. Each one of those are of impact to the case. No one who understands the JFK assassination to any wide degree would say that they were not. The only way one could dismiss those revelations is if one had an MSM type agenda and was being paid to do so. Or if one had such an emotional attachment to the WC that they had to do so. Now this all started when FC asked me for some information on what was in the files. When I was reluctant to do so, he continued to ask me. I referred him to a show I did. He then quoted me as to the above. I am still trying to locate where I said that, because I do not recall doing so. Did FC ask me this question so that he could deliberately misconstrue what I said at that conference yesterday and then attribute the wrong quote to me and not to him?

Paul Baker Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 23 minutes ago, Paz Marverde said: Baker, same question: do you know who these really important people are? I think you're missing the point. I don't care who these 'really important' people are. I care more about a better explanation that fits the available facts. Why don't you share that? Then I can decide whether it really is a better explanation, and in turn even perhaps adjust my position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Baker Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 22 minutes ago, James DiEugenio said: PB:The single bullet (or 'magic bullet' as conspiracy theorists tend to describe it) theory remains the most coherent interpretation of the established facts. It is not coherent at all. And I showed why in those pages I referenced for FC. Those pages are full of facts, pure and simple. Every step of the way the Single Bullet Fantasy collapses under scrutiny. Its a matter of data, not opinion. The reason people like Baker hang on to it is because without it, you have a conspiracy. Even the WC admitted this. And they realized that quite early in the proceedings. According to Pat Speer it was in January. Excuse me, Jim. I'm not hanging onto anything. I don't care whether there was a conspiracy or not, I just don't believe there was one. So let's have a look at how the single bullet theory collapses under scrutiny. Everything I've read about it suggests that the WC must have got it right. But, I am a sentient human being with a functioning analytical brain, and am able to be persuaded otherwise.

No, you do not. Carlier does not know it as well, but you are both still here trying to smear the reputation of one of the best researchers ever on the assassination: DiEugenio.

LOL This from the guy who was still trying to confuse the process of NAA with CBLA in order to keep the NAA alive as a way of imputing Oswald's guilt. And then he says he is not hanging onto anything! I mean please Baker. Do you ever go back and read some of the things you place on this forum to see how silly and hypocritical you sound?
