I can not believe Free Republic is allowing this forgery to remain on their site! If you look at this ADMITTED forgery, you will see some marks that also appear on the fake KOS copy leading readers to wonder if this Freeper is the source of both documents.
(makes as much sense as the claims of Israeli insider)
It wasn't until post 69, and then again in post 178, that somebody questioned this part of the story, but I wasn't in a position to endorse the post at the time.
That said, there are lots of questions about the first document that need to be answered, such as why the change in border patterns from the Kos to Smear versions, why not scan and post the back side of the document, why do "artifacts" of an embossment and signature block appear, when the real things should be plainly evident (were they cleaned from the source document?).
