Amazing video Dr. Munger, Interesting how recent declassifications suggest that the evidence behind the Tonkin incident was far from clear-cut. How does this uncertainty reshape our understanding of how intelligence can be used to justify major military escalations?

Big fan of "dare to be great exclamation point" and " adventure roman numeral one" said in the exact same tone as all the other facts in the video. The names of these things simply being described accurately makes them sound corny as all hell. Real genius businessmen over here.

One act he performed leans to Oswald acting alone; after the assassination, he (and he alone) decides to take the rest of the day off and go watch a movie. To my knowledge, no one released him from his work. (A job he had for just about a month.)
@SeanMunger16 сағат бұрын
Not accurate at all. He fled the School Book Depository after shooting JFK, took a bus across town, murdered Officer Tippit, and ran into the theater when police closed in on him. Not at all "deciding to take the day off," that's ludicrous.

With all of those one term presidents, there was a period in 1861 and 1862 that there were five living ex-presidents. It happened a few more times, the last one ending 12/29/2024.

For me the clincher is the fact that he left work immediately after the event, got on a bus, didn't wait around for the traffic, got off the bus and got away as quickly as possible. Innocent people don't try to get away from work like that.

A hippy history teacher ? Works for me - as long as .... A simple stable hand am I - Horses are how I make a living - I worked in the metal trades for 20 yrs (layout) and I was born in the same dirt as Bill Monroe - left handed guitars and true history - not BS history - Example - The so called legend of the James' Gang is pretty much a crock of shit - Hopefully you will shed light in places others have overlooked and failed to explain in the context of the day - not today - My Dad was born on a working plantation - The skewed version history tells in books is , again , not exactly the real truth - look forward to see if your high educational contributions were worth the time and energy - the track record is not exactly the stuff of Mr Rhodes

Those rides were not exclusive of the USA, my mother was born in 1920, when she was 10 she got her first plane ride, it was just a short hop around the city, she was happy telling the story. After being a baby I got my first ride with a trip to San Francisco, I took a plane called "el lechero" meaning the milkman, the reason was that it flew from Mexico City to LA but making about 6 stops on the way, I got on it at the first stop, in my hometown Guadalajara. I learned to move around, I was coming from Chicago after visiting relatives, and my aunt was supposed to take care of me that evening in Mexico city before putting me on the pullman train that night to Guadalajara, she didn´t show up and being a minor, the airline wouldn''t let me go so I told them I didn't have her phone but knew where she lived so they would let me go, it didn't work out but they agreed to take me in a company's car to her house, they thought I wouldn't get there but agreed anyways, when we got there, the maid opened the door and said it was her house, still they didn't let me go, so they stayed outside in the car, a couple of hours later my aunt showed us and was truly surprised, she thought I was coming in until the next day.

Charles actually did commit a physical murder, though he was never charged. He killed his uncle in ashland KY who had supposedly molested him. Ashland swept it under the rug because they did not want the publicity.

I live in Oshawa Ontario, home of General Motors of Canada, with several assembly plants. In 1967 Boeing was on an international recruitment effort to hire specialist for the 747 project. The man across the street was a Too & Die man at GM. They made him an offer and off they went, to a new house in Kent and a new life in the United States,

Unfortunately it's because most people won't look at the facts, or don't believe they are facts. Conspiracy theories satisfy an instinctive need for "secret knowledge" that people find empowering.
