Interesting, Marc -

By the way - we are STILL waiting for the sources of the Al
Quaeda-747-training-in-Iraq tale you told; your reply to Daniel did not
site a single source.

:-)

Good heavens. BD, but your grammar is getting a bit strained!

I simply request that folks set out hard facts, with references, before
making historical statements.  

I welcome the setting out of  "opinion" when identified as such:  that
is, "this photograph is better than that photograph" or the like.

But, when making broad-ranging historical contentions such as "the Leitz
family were in the pocket of the Nazis",  yes, I will requst some
citation to something other than the NATIONAL ENQUIRER or its ilk.
