Your report about Switzerland and the part it played with Holocaust gold shows us Swiss citizens that we are not as special as we sometimes believe, nor are we better than the rest of the world.

Still, even if the Dallas notes are authentic, they are covered by attorney-client privilege, and will probably never be entered as evidence. (The privilege protects confidential communications made by a client to a lawyer.) As for Jones, even...
...rooted for Simpson's acquittal in the criminal trial openly expressed doubts about his innocence. Nevertheless they applauded the first decision with some misgivings. Why then are these people bemoaning the second verdict? The answer is that for blacks and whites alike, the issue was never Simpson's guilt or liability; it was his color. EDWARD ELLIS JR.
