What is the result of part of the planet going back to rule by Nazis?

More coming. Stay tuned." MickeyDonald (talk) 15:05, 9 April 2015 (UTC)


 * The Vatican-Nazi conspiracy theories are nothing new. Skolnick has also asserted that the Queen is secretly the head of the United States. That doesn't make him an anti-British bigot. - Location (talk) 15:52, 9 April 2015 (UTC)

Removed section
I have removed the following section from the article:
 * Towards the end of his life, Skolnick served as co-host with Lenny Bloom for the Canadian radio show Cloak & Dagger. The show was taken off the airwaves, despite very high market ratings, following a controversial interview with former German Defense Minister Andreas von Bülow, in which Von Bulow claimed that the terrorist September 11, 2001 attacks were an inside job. Cloak & Dagger then became an Internet podcast, which subsequently relocated to a German web server due to relentless hacking attacks.

This could be true, but I cannot find an reliable sourcing for any of it. -Location (talk) 05:37, 30 May 2017 (UTC)

Sherman Skolnick
I profoundly disagree with calling SS a "conspiracy theorist," especially making this his primary descriptor. "Conspiracy theorist" is extremely tendentious and ultimately demeaning. Skolnick was an untiring, independent investigator of alleged crimes by public officials. He was, if an irritating gadfly, of central importance in exposing conflicts of interest involving two Illinois supreme court justices, which finally compelled their resignations. This must be changed. Geoff52harr (talk) 05:16, 8 November 2018 (UTC)


 * Take a look at United Airlines Flight 553. Or Abraham_Bolden. Me, I'm wondering why _this_ article doesn't mention one or more of the silly spoutings. Someone applying a filter after death that couldn't be applied during life? Shenme (talk) 03:59, 8 December 2019 (UTC)


 * This is true:


 * 'Skolnick revealed corruption at the Bank of Credit and Commerce International (BCCI).


 * But this is a conspiracy:


 * In a 1991 article in Spotlight he claimed that the BCCI bribed 25 per cent of both Houses of Congress, 108 Congressmen and 28 U.S. Senators.'


 * It's a real rabbit hole that was never really properly investigated. So with the DOJ clearly in bed with house and congress, yikes!: https://adamfitzgerald-5924.medium.com/the-axis-of-evil-the-safari-club-cia-b-c-c-i-bank-a2711a42fe63 Family Guy Guy (talk) 18:19, 11 May 2022 (UTC)
