Reply #57: You're ignoring that the actual topic here is your inability to state a logical argument

... but I certainly did show that Lifton is quite wrong about the bullet causing that "back and to the left" motion: It happens two frames after the forward head-snap which is clearly seen immediately after the shot. If the bullet came from the right front, we'd already be seeing the "back and to the left" motion in this frame. But we don't see that until two frames later, when the bullet is no longer applying any force to the head. It also does not matter which of the various plausible explanations for the "back and to the left" is the best explanation: the bullet hit the head from behind, so all the various shot-from-the front theories are invalid, since that's not what happened.

It really does not matter one whit that you don't seem to understand this, or that you seem to think that Lifton's degree in physics somehow permits him to refute physics and claim that momentum transfer mysteriously occurs two frames after the hit: He is wrong, and the reason he is wrong is not really that he's wrong about the physics of momentum transfer; it's because he simply jumped to a conclusion without examining the Zapruder film closely. As I said, it must be a bummer to have one of your favorite myths debunked, but that's not my problem.

As for his body-alteration nonsense, I do believe that every one of the items you listed is discussed in the links I provided, and I see no point at all in repeating them here. I did not "ignore" those claims -- I gave you some good resources to find out for yourself what else Lifton got wrong -- but I certainly have no interest in arguing about them. If you want to fantasize about JFK in between bouts of fantasizing about 9/11, knock yourself out, but it's been many years since I concluded that it's pointless and boring. Your belief that we should still be arguing about the direction of the head shot, and Lifton's delusional speculations about body alterations are both good examples of why it's pointless and boring. The only reason I can see that you dragged that into a thread about 9/11 is that I challenged you to state an actual argument, and apparently the best you could come up with was a link to a off-topic, nonsensical YouTube video. Very sad, but also not my problem.
