"NSSM 200 was never renounced." Yep, the doctor and the madman should have been in prison long ago for having orchestrated mass murder and general all around crimes against humanity. I imagine there are some younger people thinking US crimes and military aggression are relatively new since just crazy George dubya and Obama. And they have no idea.
