The problem also is corporate , controlled media in this country no longer has any integrity.

It isn't surprising people wit a brain question the mainstream "script" provided these days.

alec baldwin rants on twitter are not news , a journalist dying is, yet the trash for cash news today talks about baldwin and paula deen. Its sickening.

Now you know how Rome collapsed - by "Bread and Circuses".

It's really sad about Michael Hastings but hopefully some other young reporter will rise to the occasion to fill his shoes. What fun is it watching your country collapse under the weight of its own corruption without a good journalists to chronicle the descent for future generations.

BTW, I find the melody of the Kol Nidre forceful, enchanting, and beautiful. There is not another melody I am aware of that can touch the heart and soul as this one does, and nobody who as ever read it that I am aware of till I read this piece of garbage from Jim Stone has ever compared to to anything involving satan.

People like him are scary, because somehow they actually believe their own tripe.

I like him, and find him to be an excellent writer. What is your motivation for ridiculing him? If you don't like him, don't read him. He is dead on about the facts not adding up on Hastings, and I have no reason to question his experience with the synagogue, it's possible.
Anyway, he is off topic.

Police and firefighters in Los Angeles have been ordered not to speak to the media about the deadly crash involving Rolling Stone journalist Michael Hastings, fueling speculation that some form of cover-up could be underway.

The journalist added that she talked to “military personnel” who commented that the inferno which consumed Hastings’ Mercedes was an extremely hot fire that “is not something you normally see with a car like this,” and that Mercedes itself was waiting to hear from the LAPD but has not been contacted.

Dvorak also noted that the engine from Hastings’ vehicle was found 150 feet behind the car, contradicting testimony from two university physics professors who said that “the engine would go with the forward velocity of the (vehicle).”

Highlighting the absence of skid marks on the road, Dvorak said she was inclined to surmise that the car either malfunctioned or “there was something on the car that allowed that to trigger and blow up,” noting that Mercedes denied their vehicle could have exploded in the manner seen in the incident that killed Hastings.

Well I guess it is all relative. The issue seems to not be whether something is over the top, but rather true or not. Right?

As I understand it, regarding your issues. He didn't have much opinion either way and only experienced what he claimed after years of living with the group in question. He described it like night in day. How they changed their behavior radically, once you were "in".

As to the comment in bold, I don't recall seeing that. Not sure if your are summarizing or what. I find the whole bathed in the blood eating the body thing extremely creepy in some religions, but apparently that is a matter of opinion, which people are entitled.

As I understand he is former alphabet, not sure of what training or skills there.

The engine was found 150 feet BEHIND the wreaked car? That cannot be true. If it is there are a lot of questions to be asked and answered. Engines simply do not fall out of cars.

Has there been any recent news about the investigation?
