Can of Mongolian thunder death-worms: Why exactly is it racist...?

[Lanius]

The more I read about Patton, the more I like him.

Especially his quote.. if everyone's thinking alike, then someone isn't thinking..

Wrong superpower, chief.....think closer to home..... 

I think he was implying that Stalin arranged the auto accident that killed Patton. *shrug*

[Lanius]

Supposedly, OSS arranged the auto accident, using an agent of theirs named Douglas Bazata, who wrote about it into a diary that he gave before he died to a historian. Stalin then had agents finish off Patton, as he seemed to be recovering in hospital.

His death stinks far more than Kennedy's. Kennedy was shot on camera several times by a marine. I mean, don't they have these stupid signs at USMC signs how no one is more dangerous than a marine with a rifle? As if miniguns didn't exist or something..

 Patton was in a low-speed auto accident where the other people didn't get hurt at all, seemed to recover and then died suddenly. Faking a pulmonary embolism isn't that hard, I believe.

I'd love to know how it really was.  Any historians around to poke holes? What kind of reputation does the historian who wrote the book has got?

I doubt the KGB had anything to do with it....this was an in-house job, and Wild Bill Donovan wasn't one to leave a job undone....
