Hersh is a leftie, but I don't care. Point 1: I don't think he's making this stuff up. Point 2: The vagueness of the Pentagon's report on this encounter, and the speed with which it vanished from view, made me suspicious from the get-go that all had not gone according to plan.
I don't doubt the valor of the men going in on these hazardous missions, but neither do I expect 100% success. In examining the Pentagon's happy talk, Hersh is doing his job.
Oh lawd.....I'm agreeing with a post of mit's? YIKES. But you are right about Hersch......isn't he the one who printed all those REALLY wild accusastions about Kennedy.....even worse than the others?
