(10,558 posts)This is going nowhere idendoit, (cool name btw), this topic has been extensively argued out here in the DU over the years, hell I may even have instigated one of those debates. What I have learned from my own research while participating in some of those debates is that there is indeed a strong likelihood that those bombs dropped from McCain's plane because of the actions of the Zuni rocket. That pretty much IS the accepted explanation. No amount of research that you can ask me to do will show that not to be a plausible course of events. Could McCain be directly responsible for those two bombs dropping? Sure, this is a different plausible course of events but there is no concrete proof that this is what McCain did.
Senator McCain has plenty of stuff we can pin him with without the necessity of using this particular topic. When we accuse him of doing something that he may or may not have done-something for which there is no concrete proof, then we are no better off with our arguments then those who quote the Swift Boaters who deliberately tried to sink the Kerry bid for POTUS. However if you DO have some sort of concrete proof.....well that would be noteworthy scoop indeed!
