their belief that the Dictabelt evidence was sound.
Your memory is faulty. Here's what the page does say:
"The fourth shot came from a second assassin located on the grassy knoll, but missed. The HSCA concluded the existence and location of this alleged fourth shot based on a Dallas Police Department dictabelt recording that was later discredited, because it was recorded after the assassination, and therefore invalid."
Note, Wiki does NOT say the HSCA discredited the evidence, just that it was discredited. It doesn't say the HSCA retracted anything.
I looked up YOUR source for your claim and found it to be wanting. Comments?
As far as RFK - I guess you believe he was spineless after all.
And what source do you have for your claim that the reason he chose to run for President was to reopen the file on his brother's murder? That's not what RFK himself was saying. He said he was running to get us out of 'Nam. You're now asserting that those claims were simply a cover to get elected so he could reopen the investigation on the assassination. You're saying he was lying to all those bright-eyed kids who came to hear his speeches.
It might help if you'd stop and consider what your words are actually saying once you get beyond the surface level of defending your pet JFK CT.
