  A friend wrote this to me in an email today:

  Part of what I find so distrubing about the aftermath
  of this terrorist attack is the nature of the
  authority telling the American public what to
  beleive. We keep hearing from the FBI and the
  Pentagon, occaissionally from the CIA. These are the
  same organizations in the background of the Kennedy
  assassination and they have a proven history of lying
  to the public and engaging in manipulation.
