Proving actual intent is irrelevant. You've provided evidence against their credibility and their is a a clear motive.

All you did was google it, you have no comprehension of the arguments and cannot separate inconsistencies from contradictions. There's also no justification for duplicating the same point over and over. Make your own arguments.
Why? Googling works just fine for me.

Then what I have to go on is the list I gave.

What I said was that even if you had two or more people that you you know are telling the truth there will be inconsistencies between the statements they give you regarding an event, and that often they contain actual contradictions as well. That refutes your claim that inconsistencies mean that they're all liars.
But you don't know if they are telling the truth. In fact, that is precisely the question on the table - are those writers telling the truth? What you have here are outrageous claims made by unreliable narrators with a clear motive which have lots of inconsistencies and contradictions. Its like when a murderer's family provides an alibi that they were all at the White House party at the time, but all give different accounts of food served there and have a motive to lie. Concluding that they are lying here is based on sufficient evidence.

What assumptions?
