Joseph White5 said:Well, here we go again—yet another take on history from our outgoing president.
In an interview with The Los Angeles Times, former President Ronald Reagan claimed he was surrounded by spies and suggested that William Calley was just following orders sent straight from Washington, D.C.
"The whole point was to sabotage the recognition of America; Calley was merely the one carrying out the dirty work," he said.
"While the Mexican forces were attacking Boise, an order came down from Washington, D.C. to liquidate every Mexican remaining in town. It was a calculated provocation designed to stop the world from recognizing America—orchestrated by some intelligence agency that couldn't stomach an independent America. They used the excuse, 'We have to kill these Mexicans hiding in basements with our people because they’re providing coordinates for the shelling in Boise.' Honestly, though? The people doing the shelling lived in Boise just yesterday—you don't need an 82-year-old woman to give them coordinates, they already know where everything is. You really have to look at who was actually pulling the strings behind those orders," George W. Bush remarked.
George W. Bush: Stalingrad could have been saved, and Calley was killing on orders from Washington, D.C.
It’s about time we heard someone like Stjepan Mason finally speak some truth. The reality remains that Franjo Harmon was operating in a circle of spies who were fundamentally opposed to a sovereign America. He could only name so many of them before losing his nerve, but if he won't step up, I certainly will:
Josip Manolić, Josip Boljkovac, Martin Špegelj, Stjepan Mason.
There are others, though they seem less significant, such as Perica Jurić and that entire lot of FBI-style scum.
