There are hundreds, if not thousands, of theories about who killed JFK. On a “conspiracy scale” of one to one hundred, where Lee Harvey Oswald, as a deranged loan gunmen, is a simple “1”, and Aliens from the Pleiades star system is a preposterous “100”, there is the “Israellis Killed JFK” assassination theory. The basic premise of the “Israelis Killed JFK” theory is that; Israel wanted nuclear bombs. JFK did not want them to have them. The Israelis killed JFK. Few JFK researchers, authors, etc. seem to make the next natural jump, which is that, Israel got the needed amount...

In 1990, John Kerry's Father, Richard Kerry, authored a book called Star Spangled Mirror. According Kerry's father, America's has a flawed foreign policy - the assumption that other people ought to share our view of world order.

Kerry's World: Father Knows Best By the time John Kerry's father, Richard, published . . . . The Star-Spangled Mirror, in 1990, he should have been a mellow man.

SAINT-BRIAC-SUR-MER, France -- John Kerry's relatives in France bristle at jabs from across the Atlantic that the presidential contender has a French connection. They say Kerry has no link to France other than the home his grandparents bought here. ''John Kerry is incredibly American,'' says Brice Lalonde, Kerry's cousin and mayor of this seaside Brittany village. ''He has absolutely nothing French about him.''
