There is a difference between facts and truth. Ignore those who claim they merely recount the facts and let you figure out the truth. They are no friends to truth. They are lazy and cannot think for themselves, let alone think for you.
Rather, seek out the messenger who interprets for you, who tells you what it all means. And especially seek out those who tell you what you think you do not want to hear, for they do not care for your comfort, only for your safety. Eschew the easy answer and the glib explanation.
Do not worry if several equally credible interpreters give you interpretations that seem to contradict each other. The informers are not the only ones who have to work at unearthing the truth. The hardest work has to be done by you. If you are a good human being with compassion and concern for your fellow human beings, you will arrive at the truth, and you will find that all of the informers were, in fact, telling the truth.
Ignorance is easy. Truth is hard. Find the truth.
