What I said is true.
What you are saying is that these documents say that the official story is wrong.
Did O'Neal confess to the killing? Or was it his pal who heard the insult over the hail of gunfire, realized it was Tillman, and decided to finish that damn Tillman off once and for all?
To address many points at once--
Seems unlikely to me it was intentional. I guess it Could have been -- but a frenzied fuck-up seems more likely. It is hard to belive that an entire platoon would be complicit in the murder of one of their own, and concoct and stick to a basically consistent story, which is what the conspiracy theory would require.
If it were a murder, of a famous soldier, a General might conceivably want to cover it up for PR reasons, etc.
OTOH the fact that Army lawyers were pleased that they forestalled a criminal inquiry pending the Army's investigation is hardly conspiracy fodder.
