years ago when I was young and stupid I cheered on the fact that Oliver North got away with shredding and burning everything related to Iran contra. today I am more cynical and believe that Oliver North is probably guilty of other crimes besides selling arms to raise money for a insurgency congress refused to fund. because Oliver North was successful in getting rid of evidence and had cover from politicians we will never know what other crimes were going on a the time

The medical students in Grenada would beg to differ.

War is hell and in its fog there are situations where good guys seem bad and bad guys seem good. Best to make no judgment until the battlefield is clear. The victors write history.

Our fabled celebrated WWII Vets bombed Dresden and all its priceless art treasures for no damn good reason except for one, to break the spirit of Germans letting them know Hell has no bounds on morality.

Ollie did well but the Devil tied him in knots.
