did I miss anything? Yes. The second two videos were pretty sound. The first youtube video with Kenneth O'keefe could have made some good points if not for his wacko conspiracy conclusions and overly simplistic attributions on what others are thinking, doing, or saying; they are unnecessary distractions and only serve to invalidate the other content, which if viewed on it's own has merit. I have seen him do better but in this video he is whack. Having renounced his US citizenship gives him some cred with a particular vein of thought but he loses his audience by going extreme. He could have just laid out some factual information and let people draw their own conclusions. It might have been persuasive with some audiences. "Looks to me we know who the real murderers are, and the motive... it is about oil." *the real murderers?* ... The presumption there is ridiculous and you embarrass yourself with such comments. The presumption seems to be, heinous and brutal acts committed by groups or individuals should be laid at the feet of Americans. That's dumb. it is about oil. ... Depends on what "it" is. There are many factors that have contributed to the current circumstance, historically and recently. Global economics is one of them. I do agree that the US government foreign policy and operations have been and are currently a total boondoggle contributing more to the problem than helping to improve things.
