I think I've made it clear I do not want to discuss anything with you because you cannot engage in rational discourse. For the tenth time, please do not ping me again.

For those who can read, this is what I was referring to when I stated "knowledge of":

"Katyn played a convoluted role in US politics and US-Soviet relations. Two US servicemen, brought from a POW camp in Germany, were at Katyn in 1943, when Berlin held an international news conference there to publicize the atrocity. The ranking officer was Col. John H. Van Vliet, a fourth-generation West Pointer. After returning to Washington in 1945, he wrote a report concluding that the Soviets, not the Germans, were responsible. He gave the report to Maj. Gen. Clayton Bissell, Gen. George Marshall's assistant chief of staff for intelligence, who deep-sixed it. Years later, Bissell defended his action before Congress, contending that it was not in the US interest to embarrass an ally whose forces were still needed to defeat Japan. "

I did not ping you and answer the question. You made this post and I am questionaing it.

Are you suggesting that the US was involved in the cover up of Katyn?

PS - You suggested repeated requests to me to not ping you. This is not true. Perhaps you are confusing this with your alter ego x5452 request to not ping ;-).
