It's WTC demolitions and OKC where I know the main story is a deliberate lie. As for JFK, I'm not that solid, but 80% of the way there. I believe Oswald was a patsy, that is. |

It's like, if I want you to understand what, say, wine is, I read you a treatise on its cultivation and composition. Or I pinch your mouth open and splash in a draught. This book is the latter. You get a very good attempt (verisimilitude) at reproducing the feel of the thing - America in the early sixties - the high-level and behind-the-scenes players.

Over the weekend I read, along with a few short stories by Twain, W.S. Merwin's translation of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight (author unknown), which I give a four out of a possible four stars. Very entertaining and it keeps you glued to both book and chair. Highly recommended, this one.
The above is to date the fifth translation of Merwin, himself a published and highly respected poet, I've read: the others being Euripides' Ipfigeneia at Aulis (the spellings of a lot of these ancient names, the Greek especially, will drive you right up Hadrian's friggin' wall); Dante's Purgatorio (the middle third of the great Italian poet's Divine Comedy); and both Beowulf and the Nibelungenlied (these last also by authors unknown, and which I have in a single Modern Library edition that includes the Song of Roland and the Poem of the Cid, whose authors also no one has a clue as to who the hell they were). I believe tonight I'll read a couple creepy shorts by my man Poe, before starting on D.H. Lawrence's Women in Love within the next day or two. The novel was completed in 1916, but Lawrence was unable to find a publisher with the nads to publish it until some brave, or desperate, souls in the US gave it the green light and finally churned it out in 1920. Seems like the book was thoroughly trashed by a leftover Victorian-era Brit bluenose of a reviewer who deemed it an "analytical study of sexual depravity" and an "epic of vice" (now I know it'll be a good read; no ifs, ands or buts about it). Ol' Lewd Larry himself thought it his best work; that's another good sign.

On the JFK Assassination Rorshach Test: I think Oswald was the shooter, but I bet he was put up to it, probably by the Mob & the CIA working together. There is a fascinating vid on JooToob that shows the head of JFK's Secret Service detail stationed in the car just behind the president calling the agent standing on the back of the limo on JFK's side OFF THE CAR just before they turn in front of the School Book Depository: the agent raises his hands in disbelief.
Then the Mob probably had kooky kike thug Ruby shut LHO's mouth forever: he probably knew he was dying of cancer anyway - and even if he didn't, the goombahs could've threatened his family.

NB and Alex both:
If you're able, read Posner's book and I can almost guarantee that you'll be convinced, almost beyond a shadow of a doubt, that Oswald acted alone; with absolutely no help, no prodding, no assistance at all from any one or any of the multitudinous "powers that be"; be it the Mafia, Cubans, CIA, KGB, whatever. Piece by piece the man thoroughly dismantles all conspiracy theories; and only the most stubborn will remain convinced that it was a confederacy of combined forces that carried out the dastardly deed. You, Alex, question Posner's motives. You NB, seem to think that the many perceived inconsistencies point to an inside job. But consider this: The assasination was a media circus event extrordinaire that will never die; that's a fact. Think about it: Camelot and its heartthrob of a king, while bouncing along with his pill box-wearing queen in the royal carriage on a progress thru their Dallas domain, the victim of a sole lonesome loser equipped with an antiquated Italian bolt-action? a judeocommunist expatriate nobody whom even the Russians tired of after a couple years? Come on, man; there's got to be more to it than that?...right? No. JFK was (still is) a hero, a darling of the leftist jewsmedia, just as the most virulent anticommunists of the 20th century, Richard Nixon and Joe McCarthy, were (still are) its most hated antiheroes. Hence, it had to be a cabal of right-wing wackos who split his skull and splattered his brains all over hell's creation -- anything less would seem anticlimactic; an insult to his demigod memory.

I put Lawrence's Women in Love on the back burner for now and instead started yesterday on my first book of the year that isn't a classic: Nigel Bagnall's The Peloponnesian War: Athens, Sparta and the Struggle for Greece. How well I like the book remains to be seen, of course, but if nothing else the guy should know wtf he's talking about, as, having enlisted in the British army in 1945, he rose through the ranks to Chief of the General Staff in London, and was a Fellow of Balliol College, Oxford. His one and only previous book is The Punic Wars: Rome, Carthage and the Struggle for the Mediterranean. So at least I know his creds are good; let's hope the book measures up as well. However, no matter how good a military analyst and/or historian Bagnall is, or rather, might've been (he's been looking at the wrong side of the lawn since 2002), I seriously doubt the book's going to be as riveting as Thucydides' own history of the conflict. Now that fucker's a gripper, and a true tour de force if there ever was one; on a par with Gibbon's Decline and Fall and Carlyle's The French Revolution.

So: hell yes, he did it (even his brother thinks so); the things that are suspicious to me are his possible connections through his uncle to the Louisiana goombahs and thereby to Ruby, and the aforementioned bizarre fact of the Secret Service man being called off the back of the Lincoln.

Man, I've had that on my must-read list forfuckin'ever! Keep us updated; okay, Bre?
Me? I've read a tunnashit over the past month or so, mostly Greek, Roman, and Persian mythology and history; too much to list. Tonight I crack Milton's Samson Agonistes. I don't expect it to be as good as his masterpiece (and my favorite blank verse epic of all) Paradise Lost, but if it's half that it'll be well worth the time. btw -- Per usual, I see this thread's moving along like chain lightning.

I've been all over and around Nietzsche this summer. I'm currently reading Nietzsche Unbound by David Taffel. I got interested in him after reading his introduction to the Ludovici translation of The Will to Power.
I can't judge how accurate his interpretation of Nietzsche's work is, but the his writing is worth reading if only for its own sake. Thanks for getting me interested in this stuff, Hetz. |

Finished Helen Rappaport's 'Conspirator' today: a very good and eminently readable biography of Lenin (with an unusually heavy focus on Lenin's private life as well as the escapades of his network of Bolshevik activists). It makes a good accompaniment to Robert Service's one volume popular biography of the man as well.
To be fair to Rappaport: she is a jewess, but she knows how to write as every work of her's that I have perused reads delightfully well. This week I have the following to finish: Hyam Maccoby's 'Judaism on Trial' (part way through this) Georg Lukac's 'Lenin' (re-read) John Cooper's 'Eat and be Satisfied' (part way through this) Baroness Orczy's 'I Will Repay' (part way through this) Baroness Orczy's 'The Elusive Pimpernel' Susan Tegel's 'Jew Suss' Allan Levine's 'Scattered among the Peoples' Knut Hamsun's 'Growth of the Soil' (re-read) James Petras' 'The Politics of Empire' --------------------- As an aside: anyone read Hamsun's 'Hunger'? That's an interesting novel, but it took me a good half of the book to get into it. I had tried before and given up after 20-30 pages, but I decided to plough through come what may this time and was rewarded.

I've been working with a friend to bring him around to WN.
He mentioned having read The Creature from Jekyll Island, and asked if I'd like to borrow it, which I have. It's a pretty big book and I'm not highly motivated to read it inasmuch as I don't expect to find any revelations and maybe a lot of obfuscation with regard to jews. Nevertheless, if I want to reach this fellow, I feel a need follow through on the reading. Does anyone have any advice for me in this undertaking? |
