Other Opinion

According to a report in The Nation, the author claims that James Cheek,United States Ambassador to Argentina at the time of the bombing, told him. "To my knowledge, there was never any real evidence . They never came up with anything." The hottest lead in the case, he recalled, was an Iranian defector named Manoucher Moatamer, who "supposedly had all this information." But Moatamer turned out to be only a dissatisfied low-ranking official without the knowledge of government decision-making that he had claimed.

Famous quotes containing the word opinion:

    Turning popular opinion upside down does not make an original.
    Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)

    When an opinion has taken root in a democracy and established itself in the minds of the majority, it afterward persists by itself, needing no effort to maintain it since no one attacks it. Those who at first rejected it as false come in the end to adopt it as accepted, and even those who still at the bottom of their hearts oppose it keep their views to themselves, taking great care to avoid a dangerous and futile contest.
    Alexis de Tocqueville (1805–1859)
