NO!!
sometimes
Even a blind pig finds an acorn occasionally.
Too many of his stories have failed to pan out; I'd take what he says with a grain of salt.
" I wait each evening for John Loftus to come on "
I wouldn't lose sleep waiting for what he has to say.
When he's got ironclad proof, yeah. Doesn't happen as often as some would like to think.
North Korea pulled the rods out of their reactor before the fuel was ready because we're going to bomb the reactor because the North Koreans are going to set off an SEMP on June 25th...
No.
JB's show is often fascinating radio, but I take everything said on it with an enormous grain of salt.
I went to his website and read some of the stuff, it's totally off the wall, with not even a grain of truth in them.
If you are interested in non-mainstream but interesting material, possibly with some actual info about the War on Terror, you may want to try to check the Threat Matrix thread. It's listed on the main page of FR, under daily threads.
Here is the link to the latest one:
Threat Matrix: Daily Terror Threat - Thread Twenty-Six

Accurate like a stopped clock.
Loftus is off into tinfoil hat country.
He seemed to make more sense a couple of years ago, but since has lost his footing. It's like he had some good intel contacts in days gone by that have since gone away and now he just makes stuff up.
He's part of the Four Horsemen of the BSocalpyse with Joseph Farah, Mansoor Ijaz, and DEBKA; all specialize in very exciting-sounding, usually scary, unique stories that have no basis in fact.
A Lefty trying to act like he's on the Right. Tin foil.
A week and a half ago, he swore up and down that North Korea would test "within 48 to 72 hours"
That and many other statements is the extent of his credibility.
Art Bell and Richard Hoagland?
John Batchelor and John Loftus.
I wondered about him, too, after seeing him on FOX today practically insisting that the pilot who violated DC airspace just had to be a "spoiled rich kid." Nobody was reporting who was on the plane but Loftus was so insistent that I made a note to look him up re: his credibility. I had seen his name in posts on FR before but I think he may have slipped a gear somewhere. He made absolutely no sense on FOX today.
