I'd suggest you check out the NSA's website on the Venona de-crypts before accusing the JBS of "weaving" theories. Their anti-communist sensitivities have been long-since vindicated. I'll grant you they are a one-note overture on "the conspiratorial model" of history, but it's no different than listening to liberals villify corporate corruption. Put three sisters in a room and two of them will conspire against the other. It's human nature, and people get tired of hearing about it, but the JBS authors sometimes hit on connections decades before the mainstream even begins to go into conscious denial spin-mode.

Of course, SOP for a Bircher per the following:
One of the most striking tactics that the John Birch Society (JBS) and other conspiracy theorists commonly use on this issue is to overwhelm the opponent with information.

The assumption, of course, is the common fallacy of logic that since there is so much information available on the subject that it must be true; the sheer enormity of printed text unquestionably makes it fact.
