The timing of this bust is so fortuitous, that a part of me is going to be rooting for these nutjobs to walk.
Why do you even call them nutjobs? What have they done that has been proven? Have we heard ANYTHING but the govts side of the story, and very little of that. They have been intentionally vague, so as to find out what conspiracy theory, and what kind of story will sell. When you have hard facts on your side, you air them willingly and openly. When you are trying to smear reputations, you let the rumors lead the story.
