George Michael Evica was born in Cleveland, Ohio, on 8th December, 1927. He studied at the Case Western Reserve University (1945-49) and Columbia University (1951-55).

He taught at the Rutgers University (1956-57), Columbia University (1957), Wagner College (1957-59), Brooklyn College (1957-1960), San Francisco State (1960-1964) and the University of Hartford (1964-1992).

Subjects taught included Myth and Ritual in Literature, Genre Studies in Literature, Literary Criticism, Consciousness Development and the Symbolic Process, Linguistics, Film Studies, Creative Writing, Investigative Reporting, and Investigative History. He also published papers on John F. Kennedy, Fidel Castro and Jimmy Hoffa. He also studied Advanced Studies in Linguistics and Anthropology at Columbia University (1957-1960) and Advanced Studies in Myth and Literature at Hartford Seminary Foundation (1971-73).

In 1977 George Michael Evica provided evidence to the House Select Committee on Assassinations. He also wrote extensively about the assassination of John F. Kennedy. This included, And We Are All Mortal: New Evidence And Analysis In The Assassination Of John F. Kennedy (1978). It was described by Mary Ferrell as the "best documented" of the books on the assassination.

Evica organized the First National Conference on the JFK Assassination in October, 1975, at the University of Hartford and was director of the Connecticut Citizens Commission of Inquiry (1975-76). He published twelve major articles and presented twenty-two major papers at conferences on the assassination in the United States and Europe.

Evica also produced a weekly half-hour radio program which initially focused on the JFK assassination and related matters, and later covered a wide range of political topics from a so-called "radical" perspective. “Assassination Journal,” which was broadcast by the University of Hartford’s radio station WWUH from 1975 to 2007, continually expanded its investigative scope to include coups, murders, and mysteries such as TWA 800, the Gulf War Syndrome, and the failed war on drugs.

Ed McKeon, who also presented a show on the WWUH radio station, praised the work done by Evica: "I think it's very easy to go along your merry way in life and not have skepticism for what's presented to us, what's laid before us as the truth. I think that's the one thing I learned from him: You always ought to question authority, question what someone is trying to convince you is the truth. Truth is slippery, but for the good of ourselves, we need to pursue it."

Approximately one month out from perhaps the most fraudulent funeral in modern times it remains astounding how so many otherwise sensible people could lie so unabashedly about an individual so evil.

For make no mistake, George Herbert Walker Bush was one of the more despicable entities of the Twentieth Century. From the early days of his involvement with the CIA and its entanglement in the assassination of John Kennedy (Director Hoover was absolutely convinced Bush played a major role)

...to the "coincidence" Bush's brother Neil was to have a festive dinner with would-be Reagan assassin John Hinckley's very own brother Scott the night after the act (true story - look it up)

As compared to the makers of magnificent inventions, glorious artworks and the foundations of modern society - who all passed either alone, neglected or derided - there is the spectacle of George Herbert Walker Bush, a vile and odious man who has finally slinked off toward his loathsome dominion. That he was allowed to flourish and thrive and have a circus maximus of mourning says more of us than it does of him.

At any rate, the mendacities and fabrications concerning Bush are but fleeting things. No one of substance mourns. No person of consequence will long remember. No more breath need be spent on him.

For truly great men are in need of no fine words to praise them. Their eulogy is your love of their works and their legacy is the way in which you live your lives.

Guy Somerset writes from somewhere in America.

This is a double-cross play by Leonikaspeare.

List of main characters:

President John (Jack) Kennedy. Dead.

His wife, Jacqueline “They killed my husband”…

His “murderer” Lee Harvey Oswald who shot John Kennedy in the neck. 

Lee Harvey Oswald’s murderer, Jack Ruby who shot one bullet while planning to shoot three.

The Secret Service personnel, recovering from a “night on the town”, on the fatal day.

Various doctors who did autopsy under duress and secrecy.

George Hickey, the Secret Service agent who "most likely" shot John Kennedy with the explosive bullet.

The explosive bullet.

The magic bullet.

Uncle George.

The plot

In 1963 many organizations wanted to get rid of President Kennedy and his brother Robert.

The Russians have been mentioned that after having been “humiliated” by Kennedy forcing the retreat of their nuke missile from Cuba could have done the deed. In fact, the deal was that Russia would pull out of Cuba AS LONG AS THE US REMOVED its own nukes from Europe and surroundings. The deal was 50/50, possibly a tad in favor of Russia, but 100 per cent in favor of non-confrontation. The media saw zip.

Lee Harvey Oswald (LHO) was a loose cannon with major psychological issues. One clever “handler” could manipulate LHO’s moods and desires of notoriety. His attempt at killing a right wing general, General Edwin Anderson Walker, was quite in line with LHO’s “leftist-communist” expressed views, but killing a democratic (considered of the left) President is very much on the borderline side in LHO’s scope of deed for “becoming famous”. Someone would have sowed the seeds in LHO’s mind. And was LHO really a communist or was he playing a double game? Was de Mohrenschildt his "handler? Note de Mohrenschildt had some "connection with the CIA, through G HW Bush and possibly higer up, though he was "not welcome" there for being a Nazi. Was missing killing the General PART OF THE PLAN?

Connection with Cuba: LHO was distributing leaflets to support the Cuban revolution but did not manage to reach Cuba (refused Visa). His love of Cuba could have been manipulated to make him hate President Kennedy who had muffed “the Bay of Pigs” invasion. Here it is possible to speculate that the invasion organized by the CIA was leaked at the highest level to the Castro regime. 

Jack Ruby,  is another loose cannon. He is a nightclub owner with a massive amount of debt. Connection with Cuba: he was disappointed with Cuba before the Castro revolution. Like LHO, he was somewhat emphatic about the Cuban revolution. 

By then the US administration, possibly without approval from President Kennedy, tried over and over to retake Cuba and/or assassinate Castro (a bit less than 200 attempts)

Some friends of Jack Ruby said that jack did shoot LHO “for the money”. Ruby said murdering LHO was not premeditated. Evidence POINTS THE OTHER WAY. Ruby PLANNED to kill LHO. Ruby was condemned to death, but before his second trial where he promised to “tell all” went ahead he died in Prison from cancer in 1967.

The Secret Service people who were a sad bumbling lot on “that day”.  They did everything that could go wrong go wrong. 

The CIA meanwhile was bubbling along as the CIA does:

John Alex McCone

November 29, 1961–April 28, 1965

• Appointed by President John F. Kennedy on September 27, 1961
• Sworn in as recess appointee on November 29
• Confirmed by the Senate on January 31, 1962
• Sworn in on February 13

After the disaster of the Bay of Pigs Invasion, ( Central Intelligence Agency (CIA)-sponsored paramilitary group Brigade 2506 on 17 April 1961) President John F. Kennedy[6] forced the resignation of CIA director Allen Dulles and some of his staff. McCone replaced Dulles as DCI on November 29, 1961.[7]

McCone was not Kennedy's first choice; the President had tentatively offered the job to Clark Clifford, his personal lawyer, who politely refused (Clifford would later serve as Secretary of Defense for Lyndon Johnson); and then to Fowler Hamilton, a Wall Street lawyer with experience in government service during the Roosevelt and Truman administrations. Hamilton accepted, but when a problem developed at the Agency for International Development, he was shifted there.[9] Thus Kennedy, urged on by his brother Robert, turned to McCone.[9]

He was a key figure in the Executive Committee of the National Security Council (EXCOMM) during the October 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis. In the Honeymoon telegram of September 20, 1962, he insisted that the CIA remain imaginative when it came to Soviet weapons policy towards Cuba, as a September 19 National Intelligence Estimate had concluded it unlikely that nuclear missiles would be placed on the island. The telegram was so named because McCone sent it while on his honeymoon in Paris, France, accompanied not only by his bride, Theiline McGee Pigott but by a CIA cipher team.[10]

McCone's suspicions of the inaccuracy of this assessment proved to be correct, as it was later found out the Soviet Union had followed up its conventional military buildup with the installation of MRBMs (Medium Range Ballistic Missiles) and IRBMs (Intermediate Range Ballistic Missiles), sparking off the crisis in October when they were later spotted by CIA's Lockheed U-2 surveillance flights.

While McCone was DCI, the CIA was involved in many covert plots; according to Admiral Stansfield Turner (who himself later served as DCI from 1977 to 1981, under President Jimmy Carter), these included:[11]

In the Dominican Republic, the CIA had armed an assassination plot to take out President Rafael Leonidas Trujillo Molina. After the Bay of Pigs, Kennedy wanted the project stopped because it was too soon for another debacle. The problem is that once you encourage and arm a group of highly motivated locals, you can't just turn them off. Trujillo's enemies gunned him down dramatically, though technically speaking without U.S. help.

In Laos, the CIA backed the Hmong (then known by the derogatory name Meo) people of the highlands to fight a counterinsurgency. This set off a complicated three-way civil war that hit the Hmong hard.

In Ecuador, the CIA helped overthrow President José Velasco Ibarra. His replacement didn't last long before the CIA turned on him, looking for greater stability and allegiance.

In British Guiana, the CIA stirred up trouble through the labor unions to take down the democratically elected Cheddi Jagan.

In Cuba, there was Mongoose, a secret campaign against Castro.

We have already mentioned the other organizations that wanted to get rid of President Kennedy and his brother Robert:

—  The Mafia

—  The anti-communist Russians

—  The Cuban refugees

—  The CIA

—  The army brass protective of general Walker.

—  The Nazis

—  J. Edgar Hoover (fiercely Republican) FBI Director from 1924 to 1972 (48 years!).

—  Crooked unions

— gambling rings

—  The Neocons.

Here we need to add the Secret Service…  OR SOMEONE SENT TO THE SECRET SERVICE TO DO THE DEED.

Who could make the links between all these and “help” eliminate John Kennedy?

THE POSSIBLE KILLER: George Hickey. 

After their night on town, ALL the Secret Service agents were worse for wear — except Hickey who had not joined them... They had drunk all night, “played with girls” and by 5.00 AM had to rally for their 8.00 AM briefing. Some agents of various “sections” had quarrelled and some of the most experienced ones were “left behind”. One at the airport and the other one, at one stage, was strangely relegated to the last car of the “Presidential procession” as running/walking by the side of the car. He apparently gave up and went back to base. Meanwhile George Hickey — who had been employed by the Secret service, mostly as a chauffeur, FOR LESS THAN FOUR MONTHS — had been designated to return the presidential car back to the airport once the show was over. He was sober, the only one sober on duty. Being in the following car, Hickey had been entrusted with an AR 15 — a new lightweight semi-automatic weapon armed with “explosive” bullets. 

The story goes that the Secret service never have had a traitor in their ranks.

They never have had a snitch either.  This is why Hickey became protected species, especially at the autopsies that clearly showed the bullet that blew JFK’s brain came from his AR 15 (or from a gun with the same calibre).  This was the fourth bullet (an “explosive” bullet as demonstrated by the damage and the shrapnel left in the President brain — that is to say the bullet was not a full metal jacket, designed to break in many pieces on impact, thus inflict maximum damage.) fired by Hickey (or "someone" in the motorcade) this bullet was the one that destroyed Kennedy’s brain. This is classified information as to protect the US Secret Service. As well, the bullet entry hole of the bullet from the AR 15 (less than 6 mm) was demonstratively smaller than that coming from LHO’s gun (7 mm).

The reasons:

Why would Hickey (or someone from the Secret Service) shoot the president? 

The maximum loony explanation that has been floated so far was that Hickey goofed and pulled the trigger willy-nilly when the first shot coming from LHO came through: one hit, two misses in less than 6 seconds. Note: this would have been an amazing feat produced by LHO that only one expert sharp-shooter managed to “reproduce” with bull-eyes in tests done with the type of gun used by LHO.

But the show from start to finish could look like a bad dangerous stupid Laurel and Hardy routine or a well organised double-cross.  A lot of elements had to be taken cared of from start to finish, including getting the Secret service agents boozed up. Though people say that the US spy agencies and secret service were “naïve” at the time, I cannot buy that there was no conspiracy to kill JFK. There was. 

How to make a Shakespearean play about this murdering conspiracy?

Was Hickey a plant sent from the CIA? Who managed Hickey before he joined "the Secret Service"?

Or was there another person using same "explosive" bullet size, near the president, who took the shot — say using a hand gun? GUN SMOKE was CLEARLY seen coming from the car — either the presidential car or the car immediately behind, as the cars were moving forward...

Lee Harvey Oswald may have shot only two bullets.

One was the “magic bullet” that hit president Kennedy in the neck and went through Governor Connolly’s shoulder before exiting through his right wrist. It was said to be magic for its trajectory was see weirdly skewed at first but when the position of the Governor was reassessed, it was see as going in a straight line.

The second bullet by LHO hit the road surface. To some extend, I believe that had Oswald missed the President entirely, this would not have made any difference. Kennedy was a dead man. “They killed my husband!”

The third Oswald bullet was thought to have been fired, but had not been so. There were two spent cartridges next to Oswald gun on the floor of the room of the sixth floor of the Book Repository Building, while the third one was away in another corner of the room. It was an old spent cartridge used by LHO like many hunters always keep one in the breech of the gun to prevent damage to the firing mechanism, or such. Forensic would soon have proven that it had not been fired on that day. Forensic were shoddy. Police made a crook job.

This is why, during tests, ONLY ONE expert marksman amongst many, Donahue, had managed to fire 3 bullets in less than six seconds, including performing the clunky reloading of the Italian made gun. Oswald had only fired 2 bullets. 

The third (and fourth) bullet(s) came from within the motorcade and only one bullet was fired. The fourth was the echo of the third bullet. The sounds were telling. From certain vantage points, the first and second bullets from Oswald could not be heard. The third and its immediate echo were clear. Ballistic would have shown then (as they did later on) that the third bullet came from a different angle — and could not have come from LHO’s shooting position.

So there was another shooter involved. Was it Hickey? No test was performed on his gun, the famous AR 15 with the “explosive” bullets. The AR 15 became the M16 and fires 5.56 mm bullets.

The .223 Remington (a.k.a.: 5.56×45mm or M193) is a rifle cartridge developed in 1957, for the ArmaLite AR-15. In 1964, the ArmaLite AR-15 was adopted by the United States Army as the M16 rifle and it would later become the standard U.S. Military rifle. The military version of the cartridge uses a 55 gr full metal jacket bullet and was designated M193. In 1980, the .223 Remington was transformed into a new cartridge, a 62 gr full metal jacket bullet with a seven grain steel core for better penetration and designated 5.56×45mm NATO(a.k.a.: SS109 or M855).[3]

So it appears that on autopsy of Kennedy, the bullet that took half of the president’s brain was a high velocity 5.57 (.223) Remington. Not a 6.8 low velocity Carcano projectile that would have gone “clean through”. The bullet was NOT A FULL METAL either. That is to say, this type of .223 bullet was exclusive to the Secret Service and designed to “explode” (break up in many pieces) in order to inflict maximum damage. The usage of “explosive” bullets on the battlefields had been made illegal by war “convention” in 1923. 

The autopsy in Washington was semi-botched up, performed under distracting pressure from the Secret Service personnel and many other people present INSIDE THE ROOM. The doctor in charge called it a CIRCUS. He could not do his job properly. Pictures taken by the special coroner photographer and his assistant were never seen again. The X-rays showed the typical fragments of a Secret Service specially modified .223 bullet having “exploded”. The X-ray plates were never seen again.

The President’s body had been entirely stripped of his clothes and the results of the preliminary investigation in Dallas hospital were not supplied to the doctors in Washington. The body had been placed into a plastic bag that had become “bloodied”.

Expanding bullets, also known colloquially as dumdum bullets, are projectiles designed to expand on impact, increasing in diameter to limit penetration and/or produce a larger diameter wound for faster incapacitating of a living target. For this reason they are used for hunting and by some police departments, but are generally prohibited for use in war. Two typical designs are the hollow-point bullet and the soft-point bullet. Exploding bullets are designed to shatter in many pieces and even do more damage.

No wonder the Secret Service personnel inside the autopsy room were nervous and tried to thwart the autopsy by giving strict instructions and by distracting the doctors. 

At this stage, there is 99.99 per cent chance that the Secret Service killed the President. Who? 

Hickey? Hickey was the only one with the AR 15. Was there another weapon, a secret handgun that could fire this kind of bullet? 

Hickey sued Donahue and the publisher of his book “ Fatal Error” in which Donahue blames Hickey for accidental shooting of the President. Hickey’s life is weird. We still don’t know if he died in 2005 or 2011. 

Mortal Error: The Shot That Killed JFK is a 1992 non-fiction book by Bonar Menninger outlining a theory by sharpshooter, gunsmith and ballistics expert Howard Donahue that a Secret Service agent accidentally fired the shot that actually killed President John F. Kennedy.[1][2] Mortal Error was published by St Martin's Press in hardback, paperback, and audiobook.

Prior to the publication of the book in 1992, both the publisher and the author contacted Hickey to invite his participation in the book and offering him a chance to respond to the allegations. In 1995 Hickey sued St. Martin's Press over the claims made in Mortal Error.[22][23] The suit was eventually dismissed in 1997 on the grounds that Hickey had waited too long after the book's initial publication to file against the publisher.[24] Hickey refiled suit when the paper-back edition was published, and later settled with St Martin's Press in 1998 on undisclosed terms.[25]

Sources state that Hickey died in either 2005[26][27] or 2011.[28][29][30]

One reviewer of the book says:

David Von Pein

"Mortal Error's" Theory Doesn't Hold Up At All When Weighed Against The Evidence That Says It Never Happened

January 19, 2006

Format: Hardcover

The theory put forth in the book "Mortal Error" -- a kooky-as-all-get-out hunk of nonsense that has Secret Service Agent George W. Hickey Jr. accidentally firing the fatal gunshot into President John F. Kennedy's head in the midst of an assassination attempt being carried out by Lee Harvey Oswald in Dallas' Dealey Plaza on November 22, 1963 -- is a thoroughly preposterous and untenable theory, and there are several reasons why.

To begin with, the very idea that Agent Hickey would have actually had the extreme misfortune of being able to "find" JFK's head just perfectly via his one "accidental shot" that was discharged from his AR-15 rifle (and miss everything else and everybody else, miraculously, in between himself and JFK) is just way too far-fetched a notion for anyone to seriously consider as fact.

Giving credence to such a crazy theory would mean literally ignoring so many common-sense things (and ignoring so much evidence and witnesses), it's pathetic. Such as: You'd have to believe that Hickey just kept his mouth shut about the "accident" with his AR-15 rifle. And you'd have to believe that David Powers, a friend and personal aide of JFK's, who was sitting in the very same car as Agent Hickey, had somehow not even noticed this rifle blast going off just inches behind where he was seated (or you'll have to believe that Powers was "in" on the "cover-up" which would have followed, which is nonsense of the first order; Powers would be the very last person I'd suspect of covering up anything with respect to JFK's death).

If Hickey had truly fired that fatal shot, you'd also have to swallow that every one of the many other SS agents in that follow-up car in the motorcade either ALL didn't hear the loud rifle shot from right inside their own vehicle...or that all of these agents lied later on when none of them corroborated such a shot from Hickey's weapon. Logical? Hardly.

Plus: No witness that I am aware of claimed to have heard a shot being fired from around the area of "Queen Mary" (the SS code name for the Secret Service follow-up car), which is yet another annoying fly in this theory's ointment.

And the biggie -- If a Hickey shot killed the President, then a logical and reasonable explanation needs to be put forth to explain away the two large bullet fragments that were conclusively proven to have been fired from Lee Harvey Oswald's very own Carcano rifle that were found in the front-seat area of the Presidential limousine. And this book does not contain such a logical answer to that critical flaw within such a "Hickey Did It" theory.

Oswald fired three shots from the southeast corner window of the 6th Floor of his workplace (the Texas School Book Depository). The evidence supporting this fact is overwhelming. And it's obvious that his second shot (aka the "Single-Bullet Theory" shot) didn't produce the badly-damaged bullet fragments that were discovered on 11/22/63 in the limo's front seat. And, IMO, Oswald's first (missed) shot could not have caused the limo fragments either.

There are many flaws in this comment made in 2006. Further publications such as JFK The Smoking Gun by Colin McLaren published in 2013, give a lot more of the forensic details of why a Secret Service “explosive” bullet  blew up the president brain, not the LHO’s Carcano bullets, of which only two were fired. McLaren went through the Warren report and subsequent release of documents, with a painstaking eye-watering investigation.

In this book, Hickey is still the culprit, by accident…

But was it an accident or a design?...

Who could have masterminded the whole operation?

McLaren makes reference to the Secret service and other services in the US spy industry being very coy about telling the truth. We shall see.

More to come

More bumbling idiots or psychologically manipulated troops?

The farce becomes more farcical. 

We know from history that such complex intrigues, as setting up the murder of JFK, have happened in the past. The most recent deception being the war on Saddam, in 2003. The person happy to be the happy bumbling idiot then was President George W Bush himself — but he really was a clever con artist employed to sell an illegal war and other shocking trimmings. 

The death of Duke Ferdinand that sparked WW1 had been set up with no less than with six possible terrorists and positions along the route of his visit. Throughout history, bumbling idiots, mad men and "witches" have been manipulated by various devious characters in order to get a particular political result. We cannot see why the assassination of JFK is different. The bumbling idiots are under subconscious psychological manipulation to do what they feel is the “right thing” which is part of a guiding giant conspiracy.

Police Chief Curry was a clown. Captain Fritz became a clown.

DA Wade and Dallas Police Chief Curry rarely saw eye to eye. After the arrest of Lee Harvey Oswald, District Attorney Wade ordered Curry to take Oswald immediately to prison. But Curry delegated the circus show to Captain Fritz who, as an old fashioned type police officer, would interview him in there, away from the huge melee of FBI agents, secret service personnel, a ranger, some homicide detectives and a swarm journalists that had ben pressing the Chief for grabs and one liners. The DA was furious that Fritz was also showing the gun and other “evidence” Oswald had used, to the press. Oswald himself was smiling and flippant, enjoying the limelight. By whatever process, Fritz, possibly discovering the new world of fame, did not execute the order from the DA and kept parading like a peacock with his talking piece of bread in handcuffs — Oswald — contrarily to his normal successful technique of interviewing a crook, with a good cop, bad cop routine.

Fritz became ready to be plucked. Ruby came along and shot Oswald dead.

How come? Was Fritz under “instructions” to delay Oswald prison incarceration, waiting for the next installment of the drama — the shooting of Oswald by whomever — or has he just become a silly show-pony for the first time of his life, so close to retirement? Either way, the next installment was somehow inevitable, unless strick security was adhered to — and even so. Oswald could not live any longer. Ruby or someone else would kill him, soon. LHO had fulfilled his purpose of fall guy and no loose end could be left behind. He could not be left to talk.

The same happened with David Kelly in 2003.

This farce has actually been a sad drama of farcical dimension. People die and the plot thickens.  Before his arrest, Oswald had shot a policeman who died, with his revolver.

Ruby was also a mad man. Who had pushed his buttons? He says he did shoot Oswald out of his own will and “on the spur of the moment” but was he really going to reveal who paid him for the deed, when he himself died of cancer? He would have had to know that having shot Kennedy's "killer" was not going to make him popular with the authorities — those trying to understand why JFK had been shot. A hero's welcome would have been out of the question, though one would mitigate the sentence, using Ruby's "patriotism".

So why would these people do it?

The more problematic "idiot" here is George Hickey. Who made him join the “elite” of the Secret Services as a 2ndchauffeur and why had this “probie” been armed with the only AR15 gun, by the time JFK was shot? He had the AR 15, ONE bullet of which most likely (99.9 per cent) blew the President’s brain away. Accident? this makes no sense. 

Today, someone asked me why is it important to know such “old” history. Most people don’t care who shot JFK anymore. Life goes on… 

The answer is simple: this crap did not stop with JFK’s assassination. It carries on daily and we see fuck all, because our media is either brain-dead, eager to collect subscriptions or totally in bed with the running gag that is the comic opera running our western governments. We've already forgotten the death of Jamal Khashoggi...

The Russian and Chinese governments have their own problems but they are not so infused in deceit, which seems to be the currency driving most of the Western Countries psyches... The “gilet jaunes” have had enough of this crap but do they know how deep this cancer goes. Is excising some more cash for pension from Macron's arse enough to kill the beast? Can we be bought off? Yes! No! Look at Brexit! 

Anyway SOMEONE in the Secret Service had been told to get rid of JFK. This was done. This had not been an “accident”. The planners of the stint wanted someone to blame for it (Lee Harvey Oswald) as a fall back position, wanted someone (a secret service personnel) who really made sure Kennedy was dead, they needed someone who would get rid of the evidence of the conspiracy-link (kill Oswald) — as any psychologist worth his/her salt would have managed to get from him, with cross referencing, the guff and they someone who would interfere with all the investigation and autopsies galore. Far fetched?...

For some this would seem too big a conspiracy to be believed. To this I would say look at the Saddam’s Weapons of Mass destruction conspiracy. This was thousand times harder to construct on a global scale than manipulate a few clowns and the media on the JFK case. 

The most likely link of who shot JFK was the white supremacists, as they were hounded by the Kennedys with reforms. The most likely link was Uncle George — a full-blown White Russian/Nazi with Jewish and CIA connections — and Ruby was a Jew.

When Robert Kennedy was killed, this was done because of the “Kennedys’” link with Israel, which to say the least had become a country of supremacists (mostly white), since its inception.

Another link was the fellow — the "pimping officer" — who organized the sexual affairs of JFK. Was he one of the clowns?

...

The unpleasant truth is that the 35th U.S. President became so despised by the most right-wing and militarist elements in the intelligence apparatus — provoked by his perceived treachery in diplomacy toward Cuba and placation of the Soviet Union following the foreign policy disasters of the Cuban Missile Crisis and Bay of Pigs and apparent desire to deescalate the war in Vietnam — that they most likely removed him in a coup. The extent to which Kennedy was sincere in those efforts is another matter, although it was confirmed in declassified documents last year that he had rejected the proposed Operation Northwoods which would have carried out ‘false flag’ bombings in Miami to be blamed on Fidel Castro which shockingly made it all the way up the chain of command past the Joint Chiefs of Staff for approval. Why is it outlandish for people to suspect they could have done something similar on 9/11?

For Americans to learn the ugly facts behind JFK’s murder, plausibly located in the more than 15,000 documents still concealed from public view, would destroy the foundations of the national security state and the establishment it safeguards. It is on this basis that for more than half a century, corporate-owned media has stifled the multitude of admissions about the assassination brought to light, even when they’ve come from Hollywood movies. What we are witnessing today in the Russiagate fiasco with the “fake news” PSY-OP is an updated version of the CIA’s enlistment of the media following the JFK assassination to orchestrate public opinion which made the phrase ‘conspiracy theory’ a universal pejorative.

Oswald's shots did not kill JFK. One Oswald's shot hit JFK in the neck, the other hit the road, but a secret service "explosive" bullet from an AR 15 of the Secret Service blew his brain off. This is not a conspiracy theory. This is the exposure of a conspiracy to kill a president. Presently, there is a conspiracy designed to remove President Trump from office. This is not a conspiracy theory. This is a conspiracy as clear as night and day. 

Mueller has been at digging the grave so deep to bury Trump that Mueller might actually bury himself. His office had to refute BuzzFeed.

JFK and the Unspeakable: Why He Died and Why It Matters is a book by theologian and Catholic Worker James W.

Who killed Bobby Kennedy? His son RFK Jr. doesn’t believe it was Sirhan Sirhan.

By Tom Jackman June 5, 2018

LOS ANGELES — Just before Christmas, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. pulled up to the massive Richard J. Donovan Correctional Facility, a California state prison complex in the desert outside San Diego that holds nearly 4,000 inmates. Kennedy was there to visit Sirhan B. Sirhan, the man convicted of killing his father, Sen. Robert F. Kennedy, nearly 50 years ago.

While his wife, the actress Cheryl Hines, waited in the car, Kennedy met with Sirhan for three hours, he revealed to The Washington Post last week. It was the culmination of months of research by Kennedy into the assassination, including speaking with witnesses and reading the autopsy and police reports.

“I got to a place where I had to see Sirhan,” Kennedy said. He would not discuss the specifics of their conversation. But when it was over, Kennedy had joined those who believe there was a second gunman, and that it was not Sirhan who killed his father.

...

Several other witnesses also said he was not close enough to place the gun against Kennedy’s back, where famed Los Angeles coroner Thomas Noguchi found powder burns on the senator’s jacket and on his hair, indicating shots fired at close contact. These witnesses provided more proof for those who insist a second gunman was involved.

Assassinations that take place in a democracy, he says, rarely have a destabilising effect.

"A successful assassination attempt of a democratic leader does not lead that country, on average, to fall back and become a dictatorship relative to a failed attempt," he says.

Dr Newton says assassins mistakenly conflate institutions with the public figure at their helm.

This is VERY naive. The point of an assassination of a political figure such as JFK is OFTEN hidden and conspiratorial. THE COURSE OF HISTORY IS CHANGED, even if the country such as the USA does not become a "dictatorhip". As explained from top to bottom of this line of articles, JFK was assassinated by the secret services — not by Oswald, who was used a the fall guy, though he managed to shoot one (non-fatal) bullet through JFK's neck. The killer bullet came from the "deep state", through the secret service (also possibly supported by the Mafia, the White Russians and the anti-Castro Cubans) that resented Kennedy's moves towards PEACE on this planet.

The death of JFK encouraged the Vietnam War development and more US crap-war in the world. HISTORY GOT CHANGED (or it continued with the planned profitable war crap).

It could be seen as ironic that the name "George" became a kind of catalyst for the Kennedys. No Judgement is passed here on the name, but one should read from top and possibly suspect some subconscious motivation for John F. Kennedy Jr.

Uncle George (see at top), George Washington and the George W Bushes seem to have brought a controversial momentum to the USA — George meaning the tiller of the soil (farmer) and being the patron saint of England, who struggled with a fire breathing dragon symbolizing the devil... until the Donald appeared, after Barak, the lightning...

Ah history AND religion...

Saint George (Greek: Γεώργιος, Geṓrgios; Latin: Georgius; d. 23 April 303[4]) was a soldier of Palestinian and Greek origins, and a member of the Praetorian Guard for Roman emperor Diocletian, who was sentenced to death for refusing to recant his Christian faith. He became one of the most venerated saints and megalo-martyrs in Christianity, and was especially venerated as a military saint since the Crusaders.

In hagiography, as one of the Fourteen Holy Helpers and one of the most prominent military saints, he is immortalised in the legend of Saint George and the Dragon. His memorial, Saint George's Day, is traditionally celebrated on 23 April.

A Greek Palestinian...

When Senator Robert Kennedy was assassinated on June 5, 1968, the American public fell into an hypnotic trance in which they have remained ever since. The overwhelming majority accepted what was presented by government authorities as an open and shut case that a young Palestinian American, Sirhan Sirhan, had murdered RFK because of his support for Israel, a false accusation whose ramifications echo down the years. That this was patently untrue and was contradicted by overwhelming evidence made no difference.

Sirhan did not kill Robert Kennedy, yet he remains in jail to this very day. Robert Kennedy, Jr., who was 14 years old at the time of his father’s death, has visited Sirhan in prison, claims he is innocent, and believes there was another gunman. Paul Schrade, an aide to the senator and the first person shot that night, also says Sirhan didn’t do it. Both have plenty of evidence. And they are not alone.

There is a vast body of documented evidence to prove this, an indisputably logical case marshalled by serious writers and researchers. Lisa Pease is the latest. It is a reason why a group of 60 prominent Americans has recently called for a reopening of, not just this case, but those of JFK, MLK, and Malcom X. The blood of these men cries out for the revelation of the truth that the United States national security state and its media accomplices have fought so mightily to keep hidden for so many years.

That they have worked so hard at this reveals how dangerous the truth about these assassinations still is to this secret government that wages propaganda war against the American people and real wars around the world. It is a government of Democrats, Republicans, and their intelligence allies working together today to confuse the American people and provoke Russia in a most dangerous game that could lead to nuclear war, a possibility that so frightened JFK and RFK after the Cuban Missile Crisis that they devoted themselves to ending the Cold War, reconciling with the Soviet Union, abolishing nuclear weapons, reining in of the power of the CIA, and withdrawing from Vietnam. That is why they were killed.

The web of deceit surrounding the now officially debunked Democratic led Russia-gate propaganda operation that has strengthened Trump to double-down on his anti-Russia operations (a Democratic goal) is an example of the perfidious and sophisticated mutuality of this game of mass mind-control.

The killing of the Kennedys and today’s new Cold War and war against terror are two ends of a linked intelligence operation.

Moreover, more than any other assassination of the 1960s, it is the killing of Bobby Kennedy that has remained shrouded in the most ignorance.

It is one of the greatest propaganda success stories of American history.

In her exhaustive new examination of the case, A Lie Too Big To Fail, Lisa Pease puts it succinctly at the conclusion of her unravelling of the official lies that have mesmerized the public:

The assassination of the top four leaders of the political left in the five year period – President John Kennedy in 1963, Malcolm X in 1965, and Martin Luther King, Jr. and Senator Robert Kennedy in 1968 – represented nothing less than a slow-motion coup on the political scene. 

If anyone wishes to understand what has happened to the United States since this coup, and thus to its countless victims at home and throughout the world, one must understand these assassinations and how the alleged assassins were manipulated by the coup organizers and how the public was hoodwinked in a mind-control operation on a vast scale. It is not ancient history, for the forces that killed these leaders rule the U.S. today, and their ruthlessness has subsequently informed the actions of almost all political leaders in the years since. A bullet to the head when you seriously talk about peace and justice is a not so gentle reminder to toe the line or else.

“But the way the CIA took over America in the 1960s is the story of our time,”writes Pease, “and too few recognize this. We can’t fix a problem we can’t even acknowledge exists.” Nothing could be truer.

Lisa Pease has long recognized the problem, and for the past twenty-five years, she has devoted herself to shedding light on the CIA’s culpability, particularly in the Robert Kennedy case. Few people possess the grit and grace to spend so much of their lives walking this path of truth.

The extent of her research is dazzling, so dazzling in its voluminous detail that a reviewer can only touch on it here and there. She has written a book that is daunting in its comprehensiveness. It demands focused attention and perseverance, for it runs to over 500 pages with more than 800 footnotes. This book will remain a touchstone for future research on the RFK assassination, whether one agrees or disagrees with all of her detailed findings and speculations. For this book is so vast and meticulous in its examination of all aspects of the case that one can surely find areas that one might question or disagree with.

Nevertheless, Pease fundamentally proves that Sirhan did not shoot RFK and that there was a conspiracy organized and carried out by shadowy intelligence forces that did so. These same forces worked with the Los Angeles Police Department, federal, state, and judicial elements to make sure Sirhan was quickly accused of being the lone assassin and dispatched to prison after a show trial. And the mass media carried out its assigned role of affirming the government’s case to shield the real killers and to make sure the cover-up was successful.

No doubt others will investigate this case further. Yet I think no more research is really needed, for as with these other assassinations, additional analyses will only result in pseudo-debates about minutiae. Such debates will only serve to prolong the hallucinatory grip the perpetrators of these crimes have on a day of reckoning, suggesting as they would that we do not really know what happened. This is an old tactic meant to delay forevermore such a day of reckoning.

The facts are clear for all to see if they have the will to truth. All that is now needed is a public tribunal, which is planned for later this year, in which the fundamental, clear-cut facts of these cases are presented to the American public. In the case of Robert Kennedy’s assassination as with the others, a little knowledge goes a long way, and only those who are closed to basic logic and evidence will refuse to see that government forces conspired to kill these men and did so because all were seeking peace and justice that was then, and is now, a threat to the war-making forces of wealth and power that control the American government.
Pease writes:

Anyone who has looked closely and honestly at the evidence has realized that more than one person was involved in Robert Kennedy’s death. So why can’t reporters see this? Why can’t the media explain this? Because the media and the government are two sides of the same coin, and those who challenge the government’s version of history, as numerous reporters have found out, all too often lose status and sometimes whole careers. Kristina Borjesson published an anthology of such stories in her book Into the Buzzsaw, in which journalists describe how they lost their careers when each of them expressed a truth that the government did not want exposed. 

Lisa Pease discloses such truths. I am reporting on her work. Therefore, the mainstream media, except for an extraordinary reporter or two, such as Tom Jackman of The Washington Post, will likely ignore both of us, but the publication where you are reading this is on the side of truth, and in the disclosure of truth lies our hope.

Since more than one person was involved in the killing of RFK, there was – ipso facto – a conspiracy. This is not theory but fact. The fact of a conspiracy. For more than fifty years, mainstream reporters have been cowed by this word “conspiracy,” thanks to the CIA. Many others have been intelligence assets posing as journalists, regurgitating the lies. This is a fact.

The official story is that after giving his victory speech for winning the 1968 Democratic California Primary, Kennedy, as he was walking through a crowded hotel pantry, was shot by Sirhan Sirhan, who was standing to his left between 3-6 feet away. Sirhan’s revolver held eight bullets, and as he was shooting, he was tackled by a group of large men who subdued him. All witnesses place Sirhan in front of Kennedy and all claim he was firing a gun.

Fact: As the autopsy definitively showed, RFK was shot from the rear at point blank range, three bullets entering his body, with the fatal headshot coming upward at a 45-degree angle from 1-3 inches behind his right ear. Not one bullet from Sirhan’s gun hit the Senator. In addition, an audio recording shows that many more bullets than the eight in Sirhan’s gun were fired in the hotel pantry that night. It was impossible for Sirhan to have killed RFK.

Let me repeat: More than one gunman, contrary to the government’s claims, equals a conspiracy. So why lie about that?

What is amazing is that the obvious conclusion to such simple syllogistic logic (Sirhan in front, bullets in the back, therefore…) that a child could understand has been dismissed by the authorities for fifty-one years. The fact that the government authorities – the LAPD, the Sheriff’s Office, the District Attorney, federal and state government officials, the FBI, the CIA – have from the start so assiduously done all in their power to pin the blame on “a lone assassin,” Sirhan, proves they are part of a coordinated cover-up, which in turn suggests their involvement in the crime.

The fact that Robert Kennedy was shot from the back and not the front where Sirhan was standing immediately brings to mind the Zapruder film that shows that JFK was killed from the front right and not from the 6th floor rear where Oswald was allegedly shooting from. That unexpected film evidence was hidden from the public for many years, but when it was finally seen, the case for a government conspiracy was solidified.

While no such video evidence has surfaced in the RFK case, the LAPD made sure that no photographic evidence contradicting the official lies would be seen. As Lisa Pease writes:

Less than two months after the assassination, the LAPD took the extraordinary step of burning some 2,400 photos from the case in Los Angeles County General’s medical waste incinerator. Why destroy thousands of photos in an incinerator if there was nothing to hide? The LAPD kept hundreds of innocuous crowd scene photos that showed no girl in a polka dot dress or no suspicious activities or individuals. Why were those photos preserved? Perhaps because those photos had nothing in them that warranted their destruction.

While “perhaps” is a mild word, the cover-up of “the girl in the polka dot dress” needs no perhaps. Dozens of people reported seeing a suspicious, curvaceous girl in a white dress with black polka dots with Sirhan in the pantry and other places. She was seen with various other men as well. The evidence for her involvement in the assassination is overwhelming, and yet the LAPD did all in its power to deny this by browbeating witnesses and by allowing her to escape.

Sandra Serrano, a Kennedy campaign worker and a courageous witness, was bullied by the CIA-connected police interrogator Sergeant Enrique “Hank” Hernandez. She had been sitting outside on a metal fire escape getting some air when the polka dot dress girl, accompanied by a man, ran out and down the stairs, shouting, “We’ve shot him, we’ve shot him.” When Serrano asked whom did they shoot, the girl replied, “We’ve shot Senator Kennedy.” Then she and her companion, both of whom Serrano had earlier seen ascending the stairs with Sirhan, disappeared into the night. A little over an hour after the shooting Serrano was interviewed on live television by NBC’s Sander Vanocur where she recounted this. And there were others who saw and heard this girl say the same thing as she and her companion fled the crime scene. Nevertheless, the LAPD, led by Lieutenant Manuel Pena, also CIA affiliated, who was brought out of retirement to run the investigation dubbed “Special Unit Senator,” worked with Hernandez and others to dismiss the girl as of no consequence.

Lisa Pease covers all this and much more. She shows how Sirhan was obviously hypnotized, how the trial was a farce, how the police destroyed evidence from the door frames in the pantry that proved more than the eight bullets in Sirhan’s gun were fired, how Officer DeWayne Wolfer manipulated the ballistic evidence, etc.

Through years of digging into court records, archives, transcripts, the public library, and doing countless interviews, she proves without a doubt that Sirhan did not kill Kennedy and that the assassination and the cover-up were part of a very sophisticated intelligence operation involving many parts and players. She shows how no matter what route Kennedy took in the hotel that night, the killers had all exits covered and that he would not be allowed to leave alive.

While some of her more speculative points – e.g. that Robert Maheu (Howard Hughes/CIA) was “the most credible high-level suspect for the planner of Robert Kennedy’s assassination,” that Kennedy was shot twice in the head from behind, etc. are open to debate, they do not detract from her fundamentally powerful case that RFK, like his brother John, was assassinated by a CIA-run operation intended to silence their voices of courageous resistance to an expanding secret government dedicated to war, murder, and human exploitation. The U.S. government of today.

When Bobby Kennedy was entering the kitchen pantry, he was escorted by a security guard named Thane Eugene Cesar, a man long suspected of being the assassin. Cesar was carrying a gun that he drew but denied firing, despite witnesses’ claims to the contrary. Conveniently, the police never examined the gun. He has long been suspected of being CIA affiliated, and now Pease says she has found evidence to confirm that.

She writes, “It’s hard to overstate the significance of finding a current or future CIA contract agent holding Kennedy’s right arm at the moment of the shooting.”

Yes, it is. As she rightly claims, the CIA takeover of America in the 1960s is the story of our time. And our time is now. None of this is ancient history. That is so crucial to grasp. For those who think that learning the truth about the 1960s assassinations is an exercise in futility reserved for those who are living in the past, they need to think again. Our descent into endless war and massive media propaganda to support it is part of a long-term project that began with the elimination of JFK, Malcom X, MLK, and Robert Kennedy. They were killed for reasons, and those reasons still exist, even if they don’t physically, but only in spirit. Their killers roam the land because they have become far more deeply part of the institutional structure of government and the media.

Pease says:

It was horrible that Robert Kennedy was taken from us far too soon. It is horrible that one man has borne the guilt for an operation he neither planned nor willingly participated in. It’s horrible the conspiracy was so obvious that bullets had to be lost and switched to hide it. And it’s horrible that the mainstream media has never dared to tell the people of this country that the government lied to us about what they really found when they looked into this case. Until the media can deal with the truth of the Robert Kennedy assassination, and until the people can be made aware of the CIA’s role in slanting the truth on topics of great importance, America’s very survival is in jeopardy….We’ve come perilously close to losing democracy itself because of fake, CIA-sponsored stories about our history. Should America ever become a dictatorship, the epitaph of our democracy must include the role the mainstream media, by bowing to the National Security state, played in killing it.

By writing A Lie Too Big To Fail, Lisa Pease has done her valiant part in refuting the lie that is now failing. Now it is up to all of us to spread the word of truth by focusing on the fundamental facts so we can finally take back our country from the CIA.

No further details about her death have been released, although US media report she died of an apparent drug overdose. 

The 22-year-old was a communications major at Boston College, according to the New York Times, and had suffered from depression.

Too many young people go out the wrong way... And there is little we can do. Condolences to the family. 

Sirhan Sirhan, the man convicted of assassinating Robert F Kennedy, has been stabbed at a California prison, US media reports say. 

Authorities said a stabbing happened at a prison near San Diego on Friday afternoon.

In a statement, the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation said "officers responded quickly" to the attack.

The victim, whose condition is stable, was not named in the statement.

But citing unnamed law enforcement sources, multiple US media reports have identified 75-year-old Sirhan as the victim.

• What if Robert F Kennedy had not been killed?
• Who was Bobby Kennedy? 
• On This Day in 1968 - Bobby Kennedy is assassinated

Sirhan is serving a life sentence at the Richard J Donovan Correctional Facility, where the stabbing took place.

The suspected attacker, a fellow inmate, has been placed in isolation, according to TMZ, which first reported the assault. 

The motive for the attack, which is under investigation, has not been revealed by officials.

Sirhan was convicted of murdering presidential hopeful Kennedy, who he shot three times at the Ambassador Hotel in Los Angeles on June 5, 1968.

Kennedy was shot in the kitchen of the hotel, shortly after declaring victory in California's Democratic presidential primary to cheering crowds.

The New York senator, brother of former Democratic president John F Kennedy, died in hospital 24 hours later.

He was later buried at Arlington Cemetery, near his brother John, who was assassinated in 1963.

At his trial in 1969, Sirhan was originally sentenced to death. Three years later, however, his sentence was commuted to life in prison when California briefly outlawed capital punishment.

A Palestinian with Jordanian citizenship, Sirhan has claimed he has no recollection of shooting Kennedy.

In a TV interview, Sirhan said he felt betrayed by Kennedy's support for Israel in the 1967 Six-Day War.

Read especially: joining some dots...

...

“By his own account, Cesar was directly behind my dad holding his right elbow with his own gun drawn when my dad fell backwards on top of him. Cesar repeatedly changed his story about exactly when he drew his weapon…I had plans to meet Cesar in the Philippines last June until he demanded a payment of US$25,000 through his agent Dan Moldea. Ironically, Moldea penned a meticulous and compelling indictment of Cesar in a 1995 book then suddenly exculpated him by fiat in a bizarre and nonsensical final chapter. Police have never seriously investigated Cesar's role in my father’s killing,” he fulminated.

It’s not the first time RFK Jr. has suggested Cesar was responsible for his father’s killing, and he’s not the only member of the Kennedy clan who believes Cesar is responsible for his father's death – he’s previously claimed the LAPD unit that investigated her father’s assassination was run by active CIA operatives, and “destroyed thousands of pieces of evidence”. Moreover, he claimed Sirhan's state-appointed legal representative Grant Cooper was the personal lawyer of mobster Johnny Rosselli, who “ran the assassination program for the CIA against Castro” – Cooper “pressured Sirhan to plead guilty so there was no trial”, he alleged.

Whatever secrets Cesar may have had he evidently took to the grave – and Sirhan can shed no light on the ever-mystifying case either, as beyond his ongoing imprisonment, he’s had no memory of the shooting ever since that fateful day. Most of his self-incriminatory statements were given while he was under hypnosis - although transcripts of the interviews show Sirhan had trouble believing he’d pulled the trigger. 

“My own conscience doesn’t agree with what I did…It’s against my upbringing, my very nature. My childhood, the family, the church, prayers, bibles, and all that, thou shall not kill, and what I’ve tried to conform to as far as the ethics of life or the moralities of life. And here I go and splatter this guy’s brains. It’s just not me. It’s just not me,” he said at one point.

Defence psychiatrists Eric Marcus and Bernard Diamond examined Sirhan, and concluded he suffered from paranoid schizophrenia, and was in a dissociative state at the time of the shooting - a disruption in the normal processes of memory and consciousness – meaning he couldn’t be held criminally responsible for his alleged actions. 

Psychologist and hypnosis expert Dr. Eduard Simson-Kallas went even further – after spending 35 hours interviewing Sirhan at San Quentin Prison in 1969, he alleged Sirhan had been psychologically programmed by persons unknown to commit the murder, that he wasn’t aware or in control of his actions at the time, and his mind was "wiped" in the aftermath by the conspirators so he’d have no memory of the event or of the people who programmed him. 

Critics of Simson-Kallas’ admittedly eyebrow raising theory have suggested he was inspired by The Manchurian Candidate, a then-popular thriller novel in which a US soldier taken prisoner during the Korean War is brainwashed by his captors into becoming a ‘sleeper agent’, and after release reintegrates into US society unaware he’s been primed to carry out an assassination and facilitate the Communist-takeover of the US.

In an extremely curious coincidence, the director of the book’s film adaptation John Frankenheimer became a close friend of Robert F. Kennedy during its creation in 1962, and produced a number of commercials for use in Kennedy’s 1968 presidential campaign. Even more amazingly, it was none other than Frankenheimer who drove Kennedy from Los Angeles Airport to the Ambassador Hotel for his acceptance speech.

from Edward Curtin

There is a vast literature on the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, who died on a November 22nd Friday like this in 1963.

I have contributed my small share to such writing in an effort to tell the truth, honor him, and emphasize its profound importance in understanding the history of the last fifty-six years, but more importantly, what is happening in the U.S.A. today.

In other words, to understand it in its most gut-wrenching reality: that the American national security state will obliterate any president that dares to buck its imperial war-making machine. It is a lesson not lost on all presidents since Kennedy.

Unless one is a government disinformation agent or is unaware of the enormous documentary evidence, one knows that it was the CIA that carried out JFK’s murder. Confirmation of this fact keeps arriving in easily accessible forms for anyone interested in the truth. 

A case in point is James DiEugenio’s recent posting at his website, KennedysandKing, of James Wilcott’s affidavit and interrogation by the House Select Committee on Assassinations, declassified by the Assassinations Record Review Board in 1998.

In that document, Wilcott, who worked in the finance department for the CIA and was not questioned by the Warren Commission, discusses how he unwittingly paid Lee Harvey Oswald, the government’s alleged assassin, through a cryptonym and how it was widely known and celebrated at his CIA station in Tokyo that the CIA killed Kennedy and Oswald worked for the Agency, although he did not shoot JFK.

I highly recommend reading the document.

I do not here want to go into any further analysis or debate about the case.  I think the evidence is overwhelming that the President was murdered by the national security state. Why he was murdered, and the implications for today, are what concern me.

There is no instance of a nation benefitting from prolonged warfare.”
Sun Tzu

On January 20th, 1961, John F. Kennedy was inaugurated as President of the United States. Along with inheriting the responsibility of the welfare of the country and its people, he was to also inherit a secret war with communist Cuba run by the CIA.

JFK was disliked from the onset by the CIA and certain corridors of the Pentagon, they knew where he stood on foreign matters and that it would be in direct conflict for what they had been working towards for nearly 15 years. 

Kennedy would inherit the CIA secret operation against Cuba, which Prouty confirms in his book, was quietly upgraded by the CIA from the Eisenhower administration’s March 1960 approval of a modest Cuban-exile support program (which included small air drop and over-the-beach operations) to a 3,000 man invasion brigade just before Kennedy entered office.

This was a massive change in plans that was determined by neither President Eisenhower, who warned at the end of his term of the military industrial complex as a loose cannon, nor President Kennedy, but rather the foreign intelligence bureau who has never been subject to election or judgement by the people. 

It shows the level of hostility that Kennedy encountered as soon as he entered office, and the limitations of a President’s power when he does not hold support from these intelligence and military quarters.

Within three months into JFK’s term, Operation Bay of Pigs (April 17th to 20th 1961) was scheduled. As the popular revisionist history goes; JFK refused to provide air cover for the exiled Cuban brigade and the land invasion was a calamitous failure and a decisive victory for Castro’s Cuba. 

It was indeed an embarrassment for President Kennedy who had to take public responsibility for the failure, however, it was not an embarrassment because of his questionable competence as a leader. It was an embarrassment because, had he not taken public responsibility, he would have had to explain the real reason why it failed. 

That the CIA and military were against him and that he did not have control over them. 

If Kennedy were to admit such a thing, he would have lost all credibility as a President in his own country and internationally, and would have put the people of the United States in immediate danger amidst a Cold War.

What really occurred was that there was a cancellation of the essential pre-dawn airstrike, by the Cuban Exile Brigade bombers from Nicaragua, to destroy Castro’s last three combat jets. This airstrike was ordered by Kennedy himself. 

Kennedy was always against an American invasion of Cuba, and striking Castro’s last jets by the Cuban Exile Brigade would have limited Castro’s threat, without the U.S. directly supporting a regime change operation within Cuba. This went fully against the CIA’s plan for Cuba.

Kennedy’s order for the airstrike on Castro’s jets would be cancelled by Special Assistant for National Security Affairs McGeorge Bundy, four hours before the Exile Brigade’s B-26s were to take off from Nicaragua, Kennedy was not brought into this decision. 

In addition, the Director of Central Intelligence Allen Dulles, the man in charge of the Bay of Pigs operation was unbelievably out of the country on the day of the landings.

Col. Prouty, who was Chief of Special Operations during this time, elaborates on this situation:

Everyone connected with the planning of the Bay of Pigs invasion knew that the policy dictated by NSC 5412, positively prohibited the utilization of active-duty military personnel in covert operations. At no time was an “air cover” position written into the official invasion plan…The “air cover” story that has been created is incorrect.”

As a result, JFK who well understood the source of this fiasco, set up a Cuban Study Group the day after and charged it with the responsibility of determining the cause for the failure of the operation. The study group, consisting of Allen Dulles, Gen. Maxwell Taylor, Adm. Arleigh Burke and Attorney General Robert Kennedy (the only member JFK could trust), concluded that the failure was due to Bundy’s telephone call to General Cabell (who was also CIA Deputy Director) that cancelled the President’s air strike order.

Kennedy had them.

Humiliatingly, CIA Director Allen Dulles was part of formulating the conclusion that the Bay of Pigs op was a failure because of the CIA’s intervention into the President’s orders. This allowed for Kennedy to issue the National Security Action Memorandum #55 on June 28th, 1961, which began the process of changing the responsibility from the CIA to the Joint Chiefs of Staff. 

As Prouty states, “When fully implemented, as Kennedy had planned, after his reelection in 1964, it would have taken the CIA out of the covert operation business. This proved to be one of the first nails in John F. Kennedy’s coffin.”

If this was not enough of a slap in the face to the CIA, Kennedy forced the resignation of CIA Director Allen Dulles, CIA Deputy Director for Plans Richard M. Bissell Jr. and CIA Deputy Director Charles Cabell.

In Oct 1962, Kennedy was informed that Cuba had offensive Soviet missiles 90 miles from American shores. Soviet ships with more missiles were on their way towards Cuba but ended up turning around last minute. 

Rumours started to abound that JFK had cut a secret deal with Russian Premier Khrushchev, which was that the U.S. would not invade Cuba if the Soviets withdrew their missiles. Criticisms of JFK being soft on communism began to stir.

NSAM #263, closely overseen by Kennedy, was released on Oct 11th, 1963, and outlined a policy decision “to withdraw 1,000 military personnel [from Vietnam] by the end of 1963” and further stated that “It should be possible to withdraw the bulk of U.S. personnel [including the CIA and military] by 1965.” The Armed Forces newspaper Stars and Stripes had the headline U.S. TROOPS SEEN OUT OF VIET BY ’65. Kennedy was winning the game and the American people.

This was to be the final nail in Kennedy’s coffin.

Kennedy was brutally shot down only one month later, on Nov, 22nd 1963. His death should not just be seen as a tragic loss but, more importantly, it should be recognised for the successful military coup d’état that it was and is. The CIA showed what lengths it was ready to go to if a President stood in its way. (For more information on this coup refer to District Attorney of New Orleans at the time, Jim Garrison’s book. And the excellently researched Oliver Stone movie “JFK”)

On Nov. 26th 1963, a full four days after Kennedy’s murder, de facto President Johnson signed NSAM #273 to begin the change of Kennedy’s policy under #263. And on March 4th, 1964, Johnson signed NSAM #288 that marked the full escalation of the Vietnam War and involved 2,709,918 Americans directly serving in Vietnam, with 9,087,000 serving with the U.S. Armed Forces during this period.

The Vietnam War, or more accurately the Indochina War, would continue for another 12 years after Kennedy’s death, lasting a total of 20 years for Americans.

Scattered black ops wars continued, but the next large scale-never ending war that would involve the world would begin full force on Sept 11, 2001 under the laughable title War on Terror, which is basically another Iron Curtain, a continuation of a 74 year Cold War. A war that is not meant to end until the ultimate regime changes are accomplished and the world sees the toppling of Russia and China. 

Iraq was destined for invasion long before the vague Gulf War of 1990 and even before Saddam Hussein was being backed by the Americans in the Iraq-Iran war in the 1980s. Iran already suffered a CIA backed regime change in 1979.

It had been understood far in advance by the CIA and US military that the toppling of sovereignty in Iraq, Libya, Syria and Iran needed to occur before Russia and China could be taken over. Such war tactics were formulaic after 3 decades of counterinsurgency against the CIA fueled “communist-insurgency” of Indochina. 

This is how today’s terrorist-inspired insurgency functions, as a perfect CIA formula for an endless bloodbath.

Former CIA Deputy Director (2010-2013) Michael Morell, who was supporting Hillary Clinton during the presidential election campaign and vehemently against the election of Trump, whom he claimed was being manipulated by Putin, said in a 2016 interview with Charlie Rose that Russians and Iranians in Syria should be killed covertly to ‘pay the price’.

Therefore, when a drone stroke occurs assassinating an Iranian Maj. Gen., even if the U.S. President takes onus on it, I would not be so quick as to believe that that is necessarily the case, or the full story.

Just as I would not take the statements of President Rouhani accepting responsibility for the Iranian military shooting down ‘by accident’ the Boeing 737-800 plane which contained 176 civilians, who were mostly Iranian, as something that can be relegated to criminal negligence, but rather that there is very likely something else going on here.

I would also not be quick to dismiss the timely release, or better described as leaked, draft letter from the US Command in Baghdad to the Iraqi government that suggests a removal of American forces from the country. Its timing certainly puts the President in a compromised situation. Though the decision to keep the American forces within Iraq or not is hardly a simple matter that the President alone can determine. In fact there is no reason why, after reviewing the case of JFK, we should think such a thing.

From Edward Curtin

Imagine this: A so-called presidential historian for a major television network publishes an interview in the most famous newspaper in the world with the most famous singer/songwriter in the world, who has recently written an explosive song accusing the U.S. government of a conspiracy in the assassination of the most famous modern American president, and the interviewer never asks the singer about the specific allegations in his song except to ask him if he was surprised that the song reached number one on the Billboard hit list and other musical and cultural references that have nothing to do with the assassination.

Imagine no more.

For that is exactly what Douglas Brinkley, CNN’s presidential historian, has just done with his June 12, 2020 interview with Bob Dylan in The New York Times. 

The interview makes emphatically clear that Brinkley is not in the least interested in what Dylan has to say about the assassination of the President of the United States, John F. Kennedy, whose murder most foul marks in the most profound way possible the devolution of the U.S. into the cesspool it has become. Brinkley has another agenda.

He introduces the interview by sketching in his relationship with Dylan and tells us that he therefore felt “comfortable” reaching out to him in April after Dylan had released his song about the JFK assassination,“Murder Most Foul.”

He conveniently links to a New York Times piece by John Pareles wherein Pareles writes about the surprise song release:

The assassination of John F. Kennedy is its core and central trauma — “the soul of a nation been torn away/and it’s beginnin’ to go into a slow decay” — while Dylan tries to find answers, or at least clues, in music.”

That is simply false – for Dylan emphatically does not try to find answers or clues to JFK’s murder, but boldly states his answer. If you listen to his piercing voice and follow the lyrics closely, you might be startled to be told, not from someone who can be dismissed as some sort of disgruntled “conspiracy nut,” but by the most famous musician in the world, that there was a government conspiracy to kill JFK, that Oswald didn’t do it, and that the killers then went for the president’s brothers.

But neither Pareles or the presidential historian interviewer Brinkley has any interest in Dylan’s answer. As I wrote five days after the song’s release, it was already clear that the corporate mainstream media were in the process of diverting readers from the core of Dylan’s message:

While the song’s release has garnered massive publicity from the mainstream media, it hasn’t taken long for that media to bury the truth of his words about the assassination under a spectacle of verbiage meant to damn with faint praise. As the media in a celebrity culture of the spectacle tend to do, the emphasis on the song’s pop cultural references is their focus, with platitudes about the assassination and “conspiracy theories,” as well as various shameful and gratuitous digs at Dylan for being weird, obsessed, or old. As the song says, “they killed him once and they killed him twice,” so now they can kill him a third time, and then a fourth ad infinitum. And now the messenger of the very bad news must be dispatched along with the dead president.

Brinkley continues this coverup under the guise of promoting Dylan’s upcoming album, Rough and Rowdy Ways, while showing his appreciation for Dylan’s music and his genius and asking questions that emphasize cultural and musical allusions in the new album, and making certain to not allow Dylan’s explosive message any breathing room.
