10. From before the first movie was released in 1990. Same thing now for the doc.

TIME ran a hit piece stating the film was whacko based on a stolen script draft. I see Stone getting the same treatment now.

One Big Thing Oliver Stone got right: JFK was pulling US out of Vietnam.

1,000 advisors out by end of 1963. All US forces out by the end of 1965.

Check out National Security Action Memorandum 263.

A week after JFK was dead, LBJ reversed that order.

Then came the Gulf of Tonkin Incident and the warmongers got their moneymaker.
