    Disappointing and Incomplete

    As others here have pointed out; at first it looks as if the 'magic bullet theory' could actually be true only to be disproved minutes later by the 'skull bullet'.

    But more importantly; They touch upon the subject 'grassy knoll', but did not go into the sniper skills Oswald needed to be able to pull off such a feat of three shots in a few seconds from the 6th floor of the TSBD. Remember, he was the one who, a few months earlier in April '63, tried to assassinate General Walker (Warren report p. 183). (Dutch investigative journalist Karl Hammer mentioned this somewhere) During that attempt he had all the time in the world to aim and fire from across the garden at a person sitting behind a desk in the study room, but missed. Now, some six months later, he is able to pull off an amazing high skilled trick on a moving object. And he did it standing up (instead of sitting or laying as a pro sniper would, using the window sill for resting his riffle), as eyewitness Mr. BRENNAN told the Warren Commission. "Well, as it appeared to me he was standing up and resting against the left window sill, with gun shouldered to his right shoulder, holding the gun with his left hand and taking positive aim and fired his last shot." Perhaps ex-CIA Bob Baer will finally pick up on this in his TV-series "Tracking Oswald" (but I doubt it).
