CIA Chief: James Jesus Angleton an Israeli Agent that Killed JFK

(NOTE: I WAS NOT AWARE UNTIL TODAY THAT Elder Mossad Chief ISSER HAREL HAD DIRECT CONTACT WITH ANGLETON. ISSER PROVIDED KRUSCHEV'S SPEECH TO ANGLETON -- THIS ONLY CONFIRMS MY BELIEF THAT THE ISRAELI-US/UK - SOVIET KOSHER INTELLIGENCE AGENTS SHARED INFORMATION SECRETLY THROUGHOUT THE COLD WAR AS LONG AS THE COLD WAR ENRICHED a weak ISRAEL and allowed the NEOCON WING TO TAKE OVER US FOREIGN POLICY VIA KISSINGER-FORD after KENNEDY WAS OUT OF THE WAY -- THANK YOU TIU!! ). Sorry for the Caps but I was excited to learn this.

After reviewing publications for awhile now, it became clear that an Israeli-CIA connection existed under deep cover during the murder of cover up of the JFK assassination. The connection and bridge for the successful killing of JFK in the interests of Israel is found in one man and that intelligence officer was a Jew named James Jesus Angleton. Quotes which lend credence to this view:

1. Angleton was the primary master of cover-up and internal controls as chief of Counter-intelligence from 1954-1974.
Angleton functioned as principal adviser to successive Directors of the CIA, most notably Allen Dulles and Richard Helms. His creative genius for scenario-building and thoroughly penetrating understanding of espionage, deception, and false flag operations remain uneclipsed to this very day. His excesses as a counter-intelligence czar, arising from extreme paranoia that may have been clinical, had adverse effects on the Agency, especially during the 1970s. Considered by many within the intelligence profession as the single most polarizing, most controversial, and admittedly most revered spymaster bar none, Angleton had personified spy tradecraft. Even the KGB used much of his tradecraft as training tools for their case officers and assets.

--The important point here is that he among very few held the perfect 360 regarding crime internally within the CIA/FBI. Most importantly he could wreck careers, blackmail and kill off those reaching knowledge regarding the murder.

2. Angleton was a Zionist. Beginning in 1951 Angleton was responsible for cooperation with Israel's Mossad and Shin Bet agencies, a relationship he managed closely for virtually the remainder of his career. It has been claimed that, in this capacity, Angleton directed CIA assistance to the Israeli nuclear weapons program.

3. Angleton was on top of "espionage" between Israel, the Soviet Union and America. He and Kissinger clearly worked in the interests of furthering Zionist control over both nations by increasing fear of internal intelligence "terrorism" via turn coat agents. This only furthered Zionist/Israeli penetration of both nations. In the period of the Vietnam War and Soviet-American detente, Angleton was convinced of the necessity of the war and believed that the strategic calculations underlying the resumption of relations with China were based on a KGB staging of the Sino-Soviet split. He went so far as to speculate that Henry Kissinger might be under KGB influence. During this period, Angleton's counter-intelligence staff undertook the most comprehensive domestic covert surveillance project (called the CHAOS Program) under the direction of President Lyndon Johnson. The prevailing belief at the time was that the anti-war and civil rights movement of the 1960s and 1970s had foreign funding and support. These types of activities were the very ones that the CIA was fomenting in other countries, so it was not outlandish to privately question the presence of foreign support and influence.

--The important point here is that his position let him cherry pick investigations and to get the drug running apparatus in place for Israeli-Jewish Gangs and Zionists. His goal in this position was to cap leaks that could reveal the extent of Zionist penetration into the USA and the Israeli involvement in President JFK's murder.

4. His famed "paranoia" involved his fear that "other" agents might learn he was an Israeli Mossad Zionist Mole within the CIA. How do we know this? Simple, he helped to establish the Mossad. After WWII, Angleton worked for the War Department's Strategic Services Unit. He became the chief counter-intelligence officer for Italy but in 1947 he returned home to join the Central Intelligence Agency. In 1951 he was sent to Israel where he helped establish Mossad, the Israeli intelligence service.

http://www.spartacus.schoolnet.co.uk/SSangleton.htm

He was never duped about "Phiby", he just lied as a deep cover Zionist Mossad mole.

Angleton was truly a bit of a lunatic. He fancied himself as a serious poet. He was half-Mexican via his mother, very tall and gangly, a raconteur who could stay up all night talking. In fact, he fairly well destroyed the CIA single-handedly because of his paranoia. He put a security system into place that ensures even today that CIA people work in a bubble, isolated from the way the world works."2

5. He ran the Jewish intelligence mafia in the USA and shared with the Jewish intelligence mafia in Europe and the Soviet Union during the 50s, 60s and 70s.

6. It was Angleton who was behind the "FAKING" and "DOCTORING" of the Zapruder film:
http://www.brasschecktv.com/page/385.html

7. It was Angleton who coached Richard Helms in covering up the murder of Kennedy. He put in the people who he could shape, control and blackmail as long as they served Israel.

8. Angleton controlled the Israeli account as if it were his own private fiefdom, not sharing his cases even with his staff including his deputy, and giving paranoid but undecipherable reports to his superiors, including George HW Bush, why? More than a few authors have even implicated him as being the CIA's moving hand behind the scene in the JFK assassination; he looked the other way as Israel developed nuclear weapons at Dimona.

9. The recently released internal CIA investigation prompted by the 1970s Church Committee indicated the far-ranging power and influence he wielded during his tenure as counterintelligence czar. The exposé showed Angleton-planned infiltration of law enforcement and military organizations in other countries as a way to increase the influence of the United States. It also confirmed past rumors that it was he who was in charge of the domestic spying activities of the CIA called CHAOS Program.3

10. Jewish writers fawn of the criminal. A minor point but it makes it clear the people like Seymour Hersh got information from him. He was likely "Deep throat" when he wanted to be - the guy was a huge chain smoker with a husky voice - that gave information to pro-Zionist Jew reporters. He protected Kissinger and laid the grown work for more Mossad-Jews like the NeoCons to rise in the early 1970s to positions totally undeserved in Washington, DC.

11. He directed to Mossad to kill Kennedy and made sure that his boy in town "GHW Bush" would help cover up and "hang-out" from the scenario. He could use 360 internal controls to ensure people internally only got the information they needed to know. It is likely his fear of getting caught as the King assassin of a "Big Fish" made him paranoid not the turn coat agents.

12. Despite misgivings over his uncompromising and often obsessive inclination to his profession, Angleton is highly regarded by his peers in the intelligence business. Former Shin Bet chief Amos Manor, in a recent interview in Ha'aretz, revealed his fascination for the man during Angleton's essential work to forge U.S.-Israel liaison in the early 1950s – Angleton was a leader whom Manor described as "fanatic about everything," with a "tendency towards mystification." Manor discovered decades after that the real reason for Angleton's visit to him was actually to investigate Manor himself, being a Eastern European Jewish immigrant, for James Angleton thought that it would be prudent to "sanitize" the U.S.-Israel bridge first before a more formal liaison was established.
The term Angletonian is an adjective used to describe something conspiratorial, overly paranoid, bizarre, eerie or arcane.

--He acted like a Jew principal in a crime - like Chertoff and 9/11. He practiced and promoted a "Jewish" world view in the Agency.

13. Finally, the most important point above all. Angleton was not Goyim. He was Jewish. He was a Crypto-Jew. It is likely he even knew Chertoff's mother for his own mother was a Marrrano Jew.

14. His Talmudic mind games allowed Jews world wide to rule unseen, undetected and un-accused in the world for at least 25 years.


- An original accusation by the Crack Smoke Republican

C.S.R.




"Shabatai Zvi had married his third, and last wife,, Yocheved, in order to establish an alliance with an important Izmir family- the Filosofs. When Zvi died, Yocheved announced that her brother, Yakov Filsof, had inherited his soul." (p.168 of "The Jewish Messiahs" By Harris Lenowitz)

Is the Filosof family connected to the political leadership of the Sabbatean State of Israel?

Perhaps it is just coincidence but the daughter of the late Prime Minister Yitzchak Rabin married a Filosof. See Dalia Rabin-Pelossof (Filosof)

Do Sabbateans rule the U.S.?

Can they assassinate a President and get away with it?

According to Leah Rabin's autobiography, her husband Yitzchak was in Dallas on November 22, 1963.

Was there Sabbatean influences behind the JFK assassination?

In June of 1963, David Ben-Gurion resigned as Prime Minister of Israel, citing "personal reasons." Some researchers believe, however, that he retired to focus on the upcoming November assassination of JFK. Supervising the Mossad hit team as it practiced in the Negev near his kibbutz. Why? Kennedy wanted to dismantle Israel's nuclear capability leaving her defenseless amidst her Arab enemies. This is just reason of many.

Richard Helms was born in St Davids, Philadelphia, on 30th March, 1913. After graduating from Williams College, Massachusetts, he joined the United Press news agency and in 1936 was sent to Nazi Germany to cover the Berlin Olympic Games. On his return to the United States he joined the advertising department of the Indianapolis Times. Two years later he became national advertising manager.

After the bombing of Pearl Harbor, Helms joined the United States Navy. In August, 1943, he was transferred to the Office of Strategic Services (OSS) that had made established by William Donovan. The OSS had responsibility for collecting and analyzing information about countries at war with the United States. It also helped to organize guerrilla fighting, sabotage and espionage.

After the surrender of Germany in 1945, Helms helped interview suspected Nazi war criminals. Helms remained in the OSS and in 1946 was put in charge of intelligence and counter-intelligence activities in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. The following year Helms joined the recently formed Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). His first task was to mount a mount a massive convert campaign against the Communist Party during the Italian General Election. This was highly successful and this encouraged President Harry S. Truman to establish the Office of Policy Coordination (OPC), an organization instructed to conduct covert anti-Communist operations around the world. In August, 1952, OPC and the Office of Special Operations (the espionage division) were merged to form the Directorate of Plans (DPP).

Frank Wisner was appointed head of the DPP and he appointed Helms as his chief of operations. In December, 1956, Wisner suffered a mental breakdown and was diagnosed as suffering from manic depression. During his absence Wisner's job was covered by Helms. The CIA sent Wisner to the Sheppard-Pratt Institute, a psychiatric hospital near Baltimore. He was prescribed psychoanalysis and shock therapy (electroconvulsive treatment). It was not successful and still suffering from depression, he was released from hospital in 1958.

Wisner was too ill to return to his post as head of the DDP. Allen W. Dulles therefore sent him to London to be CIA chief of station in England. Dulles decided that Richard Bissell rather than Helms should become the new head of the DPP. Helms was named as his deputy. Together they became responsible for what became known as the CIA's Black Operations. This involved a policy that was later to become known as Executive Action (a plan to remove unfriendly foreign leaders from power). This including a coup d'état that overthrew the Guatemalan government of Jacobo Arbenz in 1954 after he introduced land reforms and nationalized the United Fruit Company.

Other political leaders deposed by Executive Action included Patrice Lumumba of the Congo, the Dominican Republic dictator Rafael Trujillo, General Abd al-Karim Kassem of Iraq and Ngo Dinh Diem, the leader of South Vietnam. However, his main target was Fidel Castro who had established a socialist government in Cuba.

In March I960, President Dwight Eisenhower of the United States approved a CIA plan to overthrow Castro. The plan involved a budget of $13 million to train "a paramilitary force outside Cuba for guerrilla action." The strategy was organised by Bissell and Helms. An estimated 400 CIA officers were employed full-time to carry out what became known as Operation Mongoose.

Sidney Gottlieb of the CIA Technical Services Division was asked to come up with proposals that would undermine Castro's popularity with the Cuban people. Plans included a scheme to spray a television studio in which he was about to appear with an hallucinogenic drug and contaminating his shoes with thallium which they believed would cause the hair in his beard to fall out.

These schemes were rejected and instead Bissell and Helms decided to arrange the assassination of Fidel Castro. In September 1960, Bissell and Allen W. Dulles, the director of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), initiated talks with two leading figures of the Mafia, Johnny Roselli and Sam Giancana. Later, other crime bosses such as Carlos Marcello, Santos Trafficante and Meyer Lansky became involved in this plot against Castro.

Robert Maheu, a veteran of CIA counter-espionage activities, was instructed to offer the Mafia $150,000 to kill Fidel Castro. The advantage of employing the Mafia for this work is that it provided CIA with a credible cover story. The Mafia were known to be angry with Castro for closing down their profitable brothels and casinos in Cuba. If the assassins were killed or captured the media would accept that the Mafia were working on their own.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation had to be brought into this plan as part of the deal involved protection against investigations against the Mafia in the United States. Castro was later to complain that there were twenty ClA-sponsered attempts on his life. Eventually Johnny Roselli and his friends became convinced that the Cuban revolution could not be reversed by simply removing its leader. However, they continued to play along with this CIA plot in order to prevent them being prosecuted for criminal offences committed in the United States.

When John F. Kennedy replaced Dwight Eisenhower as president of the United States he was told about the CIA plan to invade Cuba. Kennedy had doubts about the venture but he was afraid he would be seen as soft on communism if he refused permission for it to go ahead. Kennedy's advisers convinced him that Fidel Castro was an unpopular leader and that once the invasion started the Cuban people would support the ClA-trained forces.

On April 14, 1961, B-26 planes began bombing Cuba's airfields. After the raids Cuba was left with only eight planes and seven pilots. Two days later five merchant ships carrying 1,400 Cuban exiles arrived at the Bay of Pigs. The attack was a total failure. Two of the ships were sunk, including the ship that was carrying most of the supplies. Two of the planes that were attempting to give air-cover were also shot down. Within seventy-two hours all the invading troops had been killed, wounded or had surrendered.

After the CIA's internal inquiry into this fiasco, Allen W. Dulles was sacked by President John F. Kennedy and Richard Bissell was forced to resign. Helms now took over the Directorate for Plans. His deputy was Thomas H. Karamessines. Helms now introduced a campaign that involved covert attacks on the Cuban economy.


Reflections of a Cold Warrior


A Look Over My Shoulder



In 1962 Helms became increasingly involved in the Vietnam War. By this time President John F. Kennedy was convinced that Ngo Dinh Diem would never be able to unite the South Vietnamese against communism. Several attempts had already been made to overthrow Diem but Kennedy had always instructed the CIA and the US military forces in Vietnam to protect him. Eventually, in order to obtain a more popular leader of South Vietnam, Kennedy agreed that the role of the CIA should change. Lucien Conein, a CIA operative, provided a group of South Vietnamese generals with $40,000 to carry out the coup with the promise that US forces would make no attempt to protect Diem. At the beginning of November, 1963, President Diem was overthrown by a military coup. The generals had promised Diem that he would be allowed to leave the country they changed their mind and killed him.

When John F. Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas, Helms was given the responsibility of investigating Lee Harvey Oswald and the CIA. Helms initially appointed John M. Whitten to undertake the agency's in-house investigation. After talking to Winston Scott, the CIA station chief in Mexico City, Whitten discovered that Oswald had been photographed at the Cuban consulate in early October, 1963. Nor had Scott told Whitten, his boss, that Oswald had also visited the Soviet Embassy in Mexico. In fact, Whitten had not been informed of the existence of Oswald, even though there was a 201 pre-assassination file on him that had been maintained by the Counterintelligence/Special Investigative Group.

John M. Whitten and his staff of 30 officers, were sent a large amount of information from the FBI. According to Gerald D. McKnight "the FBI deluged his branch with thousands of reports containing bits and fragments of witness testimony that required laborious and time-consuming name checks." Whitten later described most of this FBI material as "weirdo stuff". As a result of this initial investigation, Whitten told Richard Helms that he believed that Oswald had acted alone in the assassination of John F. Kennedy.

On 6th December, Nicholas Katzenbach invited John M. Whitten and Birch O'Neal, Angleton's trusted deputy and senior Special Investigative Group (SIG) officer to read Commission Document 1 (CD1), the report that the FBI had written on Lee Harvey Oswald. Whitten now realized that the FBI had been withholding important information on Oswald from him. He also discovered that Richard Helms had not been providing him all of the agency's available files on Oswald. This included Oswald's political activities in the months preceding the assassination.

Whitten had a meeting where he argued that Oswald's pro-Castro political activities needed closer examination, especially his attempt to shoot the right-wing General Edwin Walker, his relationship with anti-Castro exiles in New Orleans, and his public support for the pro-Castro Fair Play for Cuba Committee. Whitten added that has he had been denied this information, his initial conclusions on the assassination were "completely irrelevant."

Helms responded by taking Whitten off the case. James Jesus Angleton, chief of the CIA's Counterintelligence Branch, was now put in charge of the investigation. According to Gerald McKnight (Breach of Trust) Angleton "wrested the CIA's in-house investigation away from John Whitten because he either was convinced or pretended to believe that the purpose of Oswald's trip to Mexico City had been to meet with his KGB handlers to finalize plans to assassinate Kennedy."

President Lyndon B. Johnson appointed Admiral William Raborn, head of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). Helms became Raborn's deputy but became increasingly influential over decisions being made in Vietnam. This included the covert action in neighbouring Laos and the formation of South Vietnamese counter-terror teams.

The following year Johnson promoted Helms to become head of the CIA. He was the first director of the organization to have worked his way up from the ranks. His standing with Johnson improved when he successfully predicted a quick victory for Israel during the Six Day War in June, 1967. However, Helms information about the size of enemy forces in Vietnam was less accurate. Johnson was told in November, 1967, that the North Vietnamese and Viet Cong forces had fallen to 248,000. In reality the true figure was close to 500,000 and United States troops were totally unprepared for the Tet Offensive.

Under President Richard Nixon, Helms agreed to implement what became known as the Huston Plan. This was a proposal for all the country's security services to combine in a massive internal surveillance operation. In doing so, Helms became involved in a secret conspiracy as it was illegal for the Central Intelligence Agency to operate within the United States.

In 1970 it seemed that Salvador Allende and his Socialist Workers' Party would win the general election in Chile. Various multinational companies, including International Telephone and Telegraph (ITT), feared what would happen if Allende gained control of the country. Helms agreed to use funds supplied by these companies to help the right-wing party gain power. When this strategy ended in failure, Nixon ordered Helms to help the Chilean armed forces to overthrow Allende. On 11th September, 1973, a military coup removed Allende's government from power. Allende died in the fighting in the presidential palace in Santiago and General Augusto Pinochet replaced him as president.

During the Watergate Scandal President Richard Nixon became concerned about the activities of the Central Intelligence Agency. Three of those involved in the burglary, E. Howard Hunt, Eugenio Martinez and James W. McCord had close links with the CIA. Nixon and his aides attempted to force the CIA director, Richard Helms, and his deputy, Vernon Walters, to pay hush-money to Hunt, who was attempting to blackmail the government. Although it seemed Walters was willing to do this, Helms refused. In February, 1973, Nixon sacked Helms. His deputy, Thomas H. Karamessines, resigned in protest. The following month Helms became U.S. Ambassador to Iran.

James Schlesinger now became the new director of the CIA. Schlesinger was heard to say: "The clandestine service was Helms's Praetorian Guard. It had too much influence in the Agency and was too powerful within the government. I am going to cut it down to size." This he did and over the next three months over 7 per cent of CIA officers lost their jobs.

On 9th May, 1973, James Schlesinger issued a directive to all CIA employees: "I have ordered all senior operating officials of this Agency to report to me immediately on any activities now going on, or might have gone on in the past, which might be considered to be outside the legislative charter of this Agency. I hereby direct every person presently employed by CIA to report to me on any such activities of which he has knowledge. I invite all ex-employees to do the same. Anyone who has such information should call my secretary and say that he wishes to talk to me about "activities outside the CIA's charter".

There were several employees who had been trying to complain about the illegal CIA activities for some time. As Cord Meyer pointed out, this directive "was a hunting license for the resentful subordinate to dig back into the records of the past in order to come up with evidence that might destroy the career of a superior whom he long hated."

In 1975 the Senate Foreign Relations Committee began investigating the CIA. Senator Stuart Symington asked Richard Helms if the agency had been involved in the removal of Salvador Allende. Helms replied no. He also insisted that he had not passed money to opponents of Allende.

Investigations by the CIA's Inspector General and by Frank Church and his Select Committee on Intelligence Activities showed that Helms had lied to the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. They also discovered that Helms had been involved in illegal domestic surveillance and the murders of Patrice Lumumba, General Abd al-Karim Kassem and Ngo Dinh Diem. Helms was eventually found guilty of lying to Congress and received a suspended two-year prison sentence.

In its final report, issued in April 1976, the Select Committee to Study Governmental Operations with Respect to Intelligence Activities concluded: "Domestic intelligence activity has threatened and undermined the Constitutional rights of Americans to free speech, association and privacy. It has done so primarily because the Constitutional system for checking abuse of power has not been applied." The committee also revealed details for the first time of what the CIA called Operation Mockingbird.

The committee also reported that the Central Intelligence Agency had withheld from the Warren Commission, during its investigation of the assassination of John F. Kennedy, information about plots by the Government of the United States against Fidel Castro of Cuba; and that the Federal Bureau of Investigation had conducted a counter-intelligence program (COINTELPRO) against Martin Luther King and the Southern Christian Leadership Conference.

On 16th May, 1978, John M. Whitten appeared before the House Select Committee on Assassinations (HSCA). He criticised Richard Helms for not making a full disclosure about the Rolando Cubela plot to the Warren Commission. He added " I think that was a morally highly reprehensible act, which he cannot possibly justify under his oath of office or any other standard of professional service."

Whitten also said that if he had been allowed to continue with the investigation he would have sought out what was going on at JM/WAVE. This would have involved the questioning of Ted Shackley, David Sanchez Morales, Carl E. Jenkins, Rip Robertson, George Joannides, Gordon Campbell and Thomas G. Clines. As Jefferson Morley has pointed out in The Good Spy: "Had Whitten been permitted to follow these leads to their logical conclusions, and had that information been included in the Warren Commission report, that report would have enjoyed more credibility with the public. Instead, Whitten's secret testimony strengthened the HSCA's scathing critique of the C.I.A.'s half-hearted investigation of Oswald. The HSCA concluded that Kennedy had been killed by Oswald and unidentifiable co-conspirators."

John M. Whitten also told the HSCA that James Jesus Angleton involvement in the investigation of the assassination of John F. Kennedy was "improper". Although he was placed in charge of the investigation by Richard Helms, Angleton "immediately went into action to do all the investigating". When Whitten complained to Helms about this he refused to act.

Whitten believes that Angleton's attempts to sabotage the investigation was linked to his relationship with the Mafia. Whitten claims that Angleton also prevented a CIA plan to trace mob money to numbered accounts in Panama. Angleton told Whitten that this investigation should be left to the FBI. When Whitten mentioned this to a senior CIA official, he replied: "Well, that's Angleton's excuse. The real reason is that Angleton himself has ties to the Mafia and he would not want to double-cross them."

Whitten also pointed out that as soon as Angleton took control of the investigation he concluded that Cuba was unimportant and focused his internal investigation on Oswald's life in the Soviet Union. If Whitten had remained in charge he would have "concentrated his attention on CIA's JM/WAVE station in Miami, Florida, to uncover what George Joannides, the station chief, and operatives from the SIG and SAS knew about Oswald."

When he appeared before the HSCA Whitten revealed that he had been unaware of the CIA's Executive Action program. He added that he thought it possible that Lee Harvey Oswald might have been involved in this assassination operation.

Richard Helms died on 22nd October, 2002. As one commentator pointed out at the time: "Helms had gone to his grave with the sole knowledge of what Congress did not manage to uncover." His autobiography, A Look Over My Shoulder: A Life in the CIA, was published in 2003.

A good piece of detective work.


Below is an interview with the idiot Marrano Jew Jesus Angleton in 1983 nearly 20 years after the act. What is he talking about by chance during the interview?
Well, low and behold he talks about killing off Presidents world wide that don't follow the commands of the idiot Jewish intelligence mafia. Remember, there were no "state secrets" between the Soviet Union and the USA which he didn't know and share with the global Jewish criminal Intelligence network. With the idiot Zionist Jew Angleton running the Mossad and CIA all was likely researched and known thoroughly on both sides during the Cold-war. He set power bases for the rise of the next generation of Jew criminals in the US Military complex. His work created another ladder for Jew power in the USA. Notice he worked with "Mafia"- and that's not the Italians, but the Jewish mafias in Israel and the USA. Here he is using the word "False Flag" like a typical Jew. He describes "pure power" by killing off leaders like a mafia "Don" like a typical idiot Jew meglomaniac
Entry dated :: November 14, 1983
Washington DC

Angleton's Assassins

After not hearing from Angleton for almost a year, receiving a message on my answer machine from Angleton to come to Washington DC, I took the next shuttle flight.

It had been nearly eight years since Angleton had been forced out of the CIA but his interest in intrigue had not waned. His eyes sharpened like those of a hawk when he fastened on the details of the event he was describing. It was the recent assassination of 17 South Korean officials during a state visit to Burma.

"It was a clever enough false flag recruitment," Angleton continued, with a glint of admiration for the "opposition." Behind Wilson's bogus CIA flag was the Libyan intelligence service, which was paying Wilson, and behind this Libyan flag of convenience, whether or not Wilson entirely realized it, was and old KGB hand, Karl Hanesch. Angleton had closely followed Hanesch's career who had been working for the KGB on deception projects for over a quarter of a century; and who had specialized specialist in arranging politically-embarrassing false flag assassinations in Germany. When Quadaffi came to power in 1966, Hanesch was transferred from the East German intelligence service to the Libyan Intelligence Service where he became their key security adviser. It was, according to communication intercepts, a part of the Soviet bloc arrangement to provide intelligence aid to Libya. Hanesch wasted little time in developing Wilson as a plausible "flag" for compromising others in American intelligence. One of his first recruits was Waldo H. Dubberstein, a top level CIA analyst who transferred to the Defense Intelligence Agency, where he prepared the daily intelligence briefing for the Secretary of Defense. Dubberstein, who sold Wilson documents that were of interest to Soviet as well as Libyan intelligence-- and who committed suicide in 1980 after being exposed-- further demonstrated to the coordination between the KGB and Libyan service. Then through Wilson's CIA connections, Hanesch was able to assemble all the necessary components for assassinating virtually any public figure with CIA personnel and materials.

But why go to the expense and risk of smuggling them in from the United States? These tools of terrorism were readily available in East Germany, Czechoslovakia, or the Soviet Union at a fraction of the price and they were just as effective.

Angleton's answer was that there could be only one plausible purpose for assembling this extraordinary American-equipped apparatus: "to ghost murder trails leading to the doorstep of the CIA. The unique value of Wilson's C-4 explosives, timers, detonators and ashtrays was their " signatures." They would indicate to investigators that the assassinations carried out with these devices was the work of the CIA. (Sounds like 9/11 false flag coaching to me.)

--Here's the kicker with a hint of power mad Jewry at work commenting on the Korean planning:

To him, political assassination involved not only the murder of an incumbent office-holder but the intimidation of his successors. It did this latter task by demonstrating to them that they too were vulnerable to the reach of the assassin. He pointed out that in this case the North Koreans had shown the South Koreans that they could obtain their leader's travel schedule weeks in advance, penetrate his personal security, and secrete lethal bombs in his path that could not be detected. It demonstrated "pure power." As in Mario Puzo's book, The Godfather, when the Mafia chief put a horse's head in the bed of a recalcitrant film producer, the point of the exercise was not punishing the Koreans who were blown up by the bombs but inducing future cooperation from their successors.


Angleton's fascination with this complex case, and point, was that the Wilson Affair was not exclusively the work of the Libyans. It was the product of well-orchestrated and solid coordination between the KGB, the East German security services and Quadaffi's intelligence services. The purpose of this coordination was to use the Libyans, who were perceived of as fanatic and wild, as a front in case the assassinations went wrong. (Like the 19 Arab Hijackers - F***ing idiot Jew).

Angleton saw that Jewish power in the Soviet Union and the power of Jewish intelligence agencies was
by Crack_Smoke_Republican on 31.07.2008 [03:15 ]    
Of course, Angleton's real concern was not what had happened Burma or what would happen in Korea but the nature of the statecraft practiced by Soviet bloc nations. For him, there was still the nagging problem of what he called "the relationship."

"It may be politically convenient to assume that Soviet bloc intelligence services act independently of the Soviet Union, especially when it concerns an assassination, but what we don't really know, or perhaps want to know, is what is the nature of the relationship between the KGB and other Communist intelligence services."

More Evidence Mossad Killed JFK Over Israeli Nukes
The Missing Link In The JFK Assassination Conspiracy

From John

(Note - The second item below is a letter from JFK to Israeli Prime Minister Eshkol which makes it crystal clear JFK did NOT want the Jewish state to develop nuclear weapons and that he was demanding regular US inspections of the Dimona Nuclear facility...which, as we now know, was/is used to develop Israel's enormous inventory of atomic and thermonuclear weapons. The US Air Force white paper regarding past and ongoing Israeli thermonuclear blackmail of the US is a stunning look at how Zionism has exerted such staggering domination over the US for decades. -ed) After reading: "New JFK Assassination Theory" from WND, it is obvious that it is just more dis-information diverting attention away from the more than likely perpetrators, the Mossad. It's only fair to remind or inform your readers of the theory posed by Michael Collins
Piper in 'Final Judgment'. His theory makes more sense than anything.

Final Judgement
Reviewed by Mark Braver

There seems to be a lot of misperception of what Final Judgment does and does not say about the JFK assassination. The book does not say that "the Jews killed JFK." That's horse manure. What the book does say is that: When New Orleans District Attorney Jim Garrison charged businessman Clay Shaw with participation in the JFK assassination conspiracy Garrison stumbled upon the Israeli Mossad connection to the murder of President Kennedy. Shaw served on the board of a shadowy corporation known as Permindex. A primary shareholder in Permindex was the Banque De Credit International of Geneva, founded by Tibor Rosenbaum, an arms procurer and financier for the Mossad.

What's more, the Mossad-sponsored Swiss bank was the chief "money laundry" for Meyer Lansky, the head of the international crime syndicate and an Israeli loyalist whose operations meshed closely on many fronts with the American CIA.

The chairman of Permindex was Louis M. Bloomfield of Montreal, a key figure in the Israeli lobby and an operative of the Bronfman family of Canada, long-time Lansky associates and among Israel's primary international patrons.

In the pages of "Final Judgment" the Israeli connection to the JFK assassination is explored in frightening--and fully documented--detail. For example, did you know: * That JFK was engaged in a bitter secret conflict with Israel over U.S. East policy and that Israel's prime minister resigned in disgust, saying JFK's stance threatened Israel's very survival?

    * That JFK's successor, Lyndon Johnson, immediately reversed America's policy toward Israel?
    * That the top Mafia figures often alleged to be behind the JFK assassination were only front men for Meyer Lansky?
    * That the CIA's liaison to the Mossad, James Angleton, was a prime mover behind the cover-up of the JFK assassination?


Why didn't Oliver Stone, in his famous movie "JFK" not mention any of this? It turns out the chief financial backer of Stone's film was longtime Mossad figure, Arnon Milchan, Israel's biggest arms dealer.

The very fact that the Israeli lobby has gone through such great lengths to try to smear Michael Collins Piper and to try to discredit Final Judgment gives the book great credibility. If the book was really so silly or so unconvincing, it doesn't seem likely that groups such as the Anti-Defamation League would go out of their way to try to suppress the book as they have. The fact is that Piper demonstrates that Israel did indeed have a very strong motive to want to get JFK out of the way and that numerous people who have been linked in other writings to the JFK conspiracy were (as Piper documents) also in the sphere of influence of Israel's Mossad. Not only Clay Shaw in New Orleans, but also James Angleton at the CIA, who was Israel's strongest advocate at the CIA and also the CIA's liaison to the Mossad. The Israeli connection is indeed "the missing link in the JFK assassination conspiracy."

The "Reader from Chicago" who wrote the review of Final Judgment posted here is really off the beam and I suspect he (or she) is deliberately distorting what Piper's book does say in order to try to discourage people from reading it.

The fact is that Piper's book documents (quite clearly, in my estimation) not only the means, opportunity and the motive for Israeli Mossad involvement in the assassination (working in conjunction with the CIA), but it is also quite fascinating and very interesting read. "Boring" is the last word I'd use to describe the book, and it is certainly not "poorly written." What's more, the book is not--I repeat--not "anti- Semitic" and the book has absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with the subject of the Holocaust. In fact, anybody familiar with any of the standard writings on the JFK assassination will recognize the names of some of the key players in the scenario Piper documents: Clay Shaw, David Ferrie, Guy Banister and James J. Angleton of the CIA--and none of them were Jewish. So where this reviewer gets off saying that Piper finds "a Jew under every rock" is beyond me. I have read literally hundreds of books and magazine articles and other material on the JFK assassination and not in a single one of them--with the exception of Final Judgment--did I ever learn that President John F. Kennedy was trying to stop Israel from building the nuclear bomb and that this literally touched off a "secret war" behind the scenes between JFK and Israel's prime minister, David Ben- Gurion, who resigned (among other reasons) in disgust over JFK's policies with Israel. In fact, Israeli historian Avner Cohen in his book, Israel and the Bomb, documents this quite thoroughly. And in Final Judgment Piper also outlines some interesting Israeli connections by people who have been linked to the JFK assassination and cover-up, including Clay Shaw of New Orleans. Even Israeli journalist Barry Chamish has written in an Internet review of Final Judgment that he finds Piper's Israeli connection (via Shaw and Permindex) quite convincing. There was a controversy in the Chicago area following an attempt by the Anti-Defamation League (an Israeli lobby organization) and people associated with the ADL to prevent Final Judgment from being placed in the Schaumburg Township District Library. Chances are the Reader from Chicago is probably an ADL representative! --This text refers to the Unknown

JFK's Letter To Israeli PM Eshkol July 5, 1963

JFK's Concern Over Israel's Nuclear Bomb Program

JFK's Letter To Israeli PM Eshkol July 5, 1963

(Surely, this letter was intercepted by Angleton. I bet Kennedy didn't know he had a Dual Loyalist Zionist working against him. — CSR )

Dear Mr. Prime Minister (Eshkol),

It gives me great personal pleasure to extend congratulations as you assume your responsibilities as Prime Minister of Israel. You have our friendship and best wishes in your new tasks. It is on one of these that I am writing you at this time.

You are aware, I am sure, of the exchange which I had with Prime Minister Ben-Gurion concerning American visits (ie: inspections -ed) to Israel's nuclear facility at Dimona. Most recently, the Prime Minister wrote to me on May 27. His words reflected a most intense personal consideration of a problem that I know is not easy for your Government, as it is not for mine. We welcomed the former Prime Minister's strong reaffirmation that Dimona will be devoted exclusively to peaceful purposes and the reaffirmation also of Israel's willingness to permit periodic visits (ie: inspections -ed) to Dimona.
I regret having to add to your burdens so soon after your assumption of office, but I feel the crucial importance of this problem necessitates my taking up with you at this early date certain further considerations, arising out of Mr. Ben-Gurion's May 27 letter, as to the nature and scheduling of such visits. I am sure you will agree that these visits should be as nearly as possible in accord with international standards, thereby resolving all doubts as to the peaceful intent of the Dimona project. As I wrote Mr. Ben-Gurion, this Government's commitment to and support of Israel could be seriously jeopardized if it should be thought that we were unable to obtain reliable information on a subject as vital to the peace as the question of Israel's effort in
the nuclear field.

Therefore, I asked our scientists to review the alternative schedules of visits we and you had proposed. If Israel's purposes are to be clear beyond reasonable doubt, I believe that the schedule which would best serve our common purposes would be a visit early this summer, another visit in June 1964, and thereafter at intervals of six months. I am sure that such a schedule should not cause you any more difficulty than that which Mr. Ben- Gurion proposed in his May 27 letter. It would be essential, and I understand that Mr. Ben-Gurion's letter was in accord with this, that our scientist have access to all areas of the Dimona site and to any related part of the complex, such as fuel fabrication facilities or plutonium separation plant, and that sufficient time to be allotted for a thorough examination.
Knowing that you fully appreciate the truly vital significance of this matter to the future well-being of Israel, to the United States, and internationally, I am sure our carefully considered request will have your most sympathetic attention.

Sincerely,
John F. Kennedy

Here is the US Air Force paper on Israel's nuclear blackmail of the United States and its influence on US foreign policy. One can draw additional conclusions about how such blackmail might have factored into the trillion plus US dollars that have benefited Israel since JFK's murder.

Comment
From George LoBuono
10-3-3

Mossad motives against JFK are probably true, but don't forget who more probably did the actual shooting and the cover-up. CIA and military-industrial fingerprints are all over the hit. Meyer Lansky may have had Permindex- Mossad ties, i.e. he sought refuge in Israel toward the end of his life, but Lansky had much more going here in the USA. For example, the United Fruit company figures in the lives of more assassination suspects than did Permindex. Col. Fletcher Prouty's naming of Gen. Ed Lansdale as the man in Dealey Plaza photos (walking past the famous hobo suspects) also points to United Fruit. Lansdale's protege in the CIA was Allen Dulles, who worked for United Fruit for years. United Fruit was owned by the Du Pont family. Incidentally, the Bronfman family which this article ties to Permindex, held a major share of Du Pont corp. stock up until a few years ago. In short, there may have been Mossad motives against JFK, but the larger hand and the
triggermen appear to have been US citizens (This item is wrong the larger hand was from Jewish trigger men from Israel).

The crime of the "holocaust" was a counter-intelligence operation to bolster Israel.
www. onethirdoftheholocaust.com/nazishrunkenheads/ —
During WWII there weren't a lot of American servicemen stationed in Brazilian port cities, what with Brazil not greatly figuring into WWII. But strangely Albert G. Rosenberg was stationed in the Brazilian port city of Natal, Brazil. Rosenberg told me he'd seen plastic shrunken heads as well as real shrunken heads in the stores there. Whether ideas he or his felllow servicemen got in Brazil has anything to do with his stumbling upon two shrunken heads at Buchenwald in Germany, is open to conjecture. — (Jew Lies and Propaganda).
(
ANGLETON WAS NEVER FOOLED AT ALL with PHILBY or BEN GURION — HE PLAYED THE DUPE TO FURTHER THE ESTABLISHMENT OF ZIONIST ISRAEL. THE JEWS ON ALL SIDES WERE WORKING TOGETHER TO MIS-INFORM THEIR RESIDENT GOVERNMENTS TO FURTHER THE CREATION OF THE JEWISH STATE IN 1947. ANGLETON MUST HAVE KNOWN THE END GAME in WII- WAS ENTIRELY FOR THE CREATION ISRAEL. KENNEDY THREATENED HIS WORK.
)

After World War II ended, and the dimensions of the Nazi Holocaust became clear, it was politically impossible for men like these to constrict immigration of the survivors to Palestine, and ultimately impossible for them to stop the formation of the state of Israel. They tried, as did their successors, but in a delicious irony, some of the very left-wing Jews they detested discovered these perfidious schemes with the help of the USSR's own intelligence agencies (Remember, the Soviets were the first to get to Berlin and they seized many Nazi intelligence documents, as well as many Nazi spies themselves). Also, Soviet intelligence had long used "fascist Jews" to penetrate the inner circles of the Third Reich and assist the USSR in its struggles on the Eastern Front. Many of these Jews were communist double agents, but others defected to Zionism after the war, and told Israeli founding fathers like David Ben-Gurion of secret deals between the British and the Americans, and the Nazis. The Zionists blackmailed Dulles's successor in Europe, James Jesus Angleton, to allow Jews to be smuggled into Palestine, and blackmailed the USSR (by threatening to disclose Soviet penetration of the CIA and MI6) so that anti-Semite Joseph Stalin actually supported the partition of Israel. That the nation-building Zionists played just as dirty as the communists and capitalists, the authors assert, is the reason that Israeli historians did not welcome the book's disclosures any more than the other duplicitous parties.

In the first days of Israeli statehood, survival was not assured. Arms from communist Czechoslovakia helped them win their first war with the surrounding Arabs. But the early Israeli leaders knew that they could not depend upon the USSR for continued support, so Ben-Gurion politically isolated the communists from his government and warned Angleton, now USA's intelligence officer for Israel, that Kim Philby (disgusted by his father's anti-British, pro-Nazi leanings, so much so that he himself became a traitor to the UK and a secret convert to communism, even as he rose in the ranks of British intelligence) was a Soviet mole inside MI-6. Angleton buried these warnings, because subsequent investigation of such charges would have revealed Angleton's and Dulles's financial collaborations with the Nazis.

During the Eisenhower era, John Foster Dulles became Secretary of State and brother Allen was appointed director of the CIA. Vice-President Richard Nixon encouraged the immigration to America of European ethnics, Eastern European ex-fascists, who were intended to counterbalance the consistently Democratic-voting American Jews. Allen Dulles betrayed both Britain and Israel in his push to secure American access to Saudi oil deposits through companies like Aramco. In fact, a revolving door between the intelligence community and the oil companies that allowed ex-spooks to become oil executives, dictated American Middle East policy, and contributed to Nixon's razor-thin loss to JFK in 1960. In 1967, while outwardly supporting Israel in its Six Day War against the united Arab armies, both the USA and the UK shared Israeli defense plans with Arab oil producers. This is why the Israelis knocked out the American surveillance ship the USS Liberty, though at the time all sides agreed it was an accident.

Similarly, the official history of the Yom Kippur War of 1973 credits the intervention of an American Jew, Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, with saving Israel by warning off the USSR and airlifting arms to Israel. Loftus and Aarons provide a different take on this. In their view (or that of many intelligence officers whom they interviewed), Kissinger was a military incompetent and created a climate for war by sabotaging the Sadat/Rogers peace negotiations because he could not claim credit for these. Kissinger dithered with intelligence, mobilization, and re-supply, and Israel would have been in serious danger without the intervention of White House chief-of-staff (and ex-military man) Alexander Haig. Kissinger scapegoated CIA counterintelligence chief James Jesus Angleton for these blunders, forcing Angleton's retirement.

The Majestic 12 and Angleton
by Crack_Smoke_Republican on 31.07.2008 [04:12 ]    
Like the Manhattan Project group, Majestic Twelve or MJ-12 (as used in some leaked documents) was a joint government/military/private-sector undertaking that encompassed every facet of national security functions. The CIA was the premier intelligence agency tasked with maintaining the first line of defence of the United States during the 55-year Cold War between the capitalist West and the communist East. When Angleton assumed his throne as Chief of Counterintelligence, no doubt Truman's directive was a most inviting instrument, allowing him to carry on his mole-hunting career within the CIA against the KGB and GRU.

Majestic Twelve enjoyed greater protection than did the hydrogen bomb program of the early 1950s. With that, the Soviets were driven to penetrate not only the secrets of the H-bomb program itself, but the ultimate prize that lay scattered throughout the US Government's maximum security research facilities located in the southwestern and eastern United States.

The shocking truth of the Soviet atomic weapons espionage program, Enormous, dealt a tremendous blow to US and British security when it was learned that British diplomats operating within the US State Department, as well as US Army technicians at Los Alamos National Laboratories, had not only supplied blueprints and materials for the atomic bomb to their KGB handlers in New York, but had stolen the proposed plans for the hydrogen bomb as well. Security officials were left guessing as at what else the Soviet spies had stolen from under their noses. (ANGLETON LET THIS HAPPEN ON PURPOSE.)

As far as we know, there was no successful penetration by KGB or GRU agents into the CIA's UFO program - in large part, due to the disgraceful and unlawful actions taken by Angleton's CI Staff. After the fallout from the Burgess-MacLean-Philby defections and the execution of the Rosenbergs, Angleton tightened security and dedicated himself to safeguarding whatever secrets still eluded the Soviets. Thus he embarked on a vicious mole-hunt that would almost paralyse the CIA until his departure in 1974.


Angleton's setup of Oswald - like the Mossad's setup of Arabs in Hollywood FL in the summer of 2001
by Crack_Smoke_Republican on 01.08.2008 [03:23 ]    
When Oswald visited the Cuban and Soviet diplomatic offices In Mexico City between September 27 and October 1, 1963, Scott's vast and efficient surveillance networks picked up on his presence almost immediately. Within a few days, the station had learned his name and Scott queried Washington asking for more information. The result was perhaps the single most important JFK assassination document to emerge in recent years. It is the fully declassified version of headquarter's response to Scott's inquiry. The cable, dated October 10, 1963--six weeks before Kennedy was killed--is not any sort of "smoking gun" proof of conspiracy so often sought by cable news producers and publishing houses.

But it does reveal some troubling facts:

* A group of senior CIA officers were not only monitoring Lee Harvey Oswald's political activities while President Kennedy was still alive. They were manipulating information about him.

Among those most deeply involved in the selective handling of information about Oswald were Angleton, the chief of the counterintelligence staff who died in 1986; Phillips, the chief of anti-Castro operations in the Western Hemisphere, who died in 1988; his boss Tom Karamessines, the deputy director of the clandestine service who died in 1976; and, possibly, Phillips's subordinate, George Joannides, an up-and-coming undercover officer who was running psychological warfare operations out of Miami in 1963. Joannides died in 1991. (The exact nature of Joannides's involvement is hard to discern because the CIA is fighting in federal court to block disclosure of virtually all records related to his secret operations in 1963.)

There is no evidence that any of these men were involved in a conspiracy to assassinate Kennedy. There is lots of evidence, however, that they were very discreet about what they knew of Oswald's political activities, travels and intentions before Kennedy was killed. They certainly never cooperated with assassination investigators in any meaningful way.

* In October 1963, senior officials at CIA headquarters deliberately cut Scott, the CIA's top man in Mexico, "out of the loop" of the latest FBI reports on Oswald.

* Scott rejected a key finding of the Warren Commission report on JFK's murder. The Agency told the Commission that its personnel did not learn of Oswald's contacts with Cuban embassy officials on September 27 1963 until after Kennedy was killed. Win Scott said that was not true--and the CIA's own records confirm his point. In fact, Win Scott and David Phillips knew about Oswald's contacts with Cuban consular officials within a few days of when the occurred and well before Kennedy was killed.

Does this curious paper trail signal the existence of intelligence activity that deliberately involved Oswald?

Between 1995 and 2007, three retired CIA officials involved in pre-assasination intelligence gathering on the accused assassin spoke to me. All three acknowledged an often under-appreciated fact: information about Lee Harvy Oswald circulated among a small group of senior counterintelligence operatives just a few weeks before Oswald allegedly killed Kennedy.

Jane Roman, William J. Hood, and Anne Goodpasture agreed in separate interviews that the October 10, 1963 cable reflected an unusual level of interest in Oswald.

"To me it's indicative of a keen interest in Oswald held on a 'need to know' basis," said Roman, a longtime aide to CIA counterintelligence chief Jim Angleton, in an interview at her home in Washington in November 1994. I first published an account of Roman's remarks in the Washington Post a few months later. Roman, who later regretted her remarks to me but did not recant them, said she did not know who was responsible for the final version of the misleading cable.

Corrections...
by Crack_Smoke_Republican on 02.08.2008 [04:14 ]    
Line 1: After reviewing publications for awhile now, it became clear that an Israeli-CIA connection existed under deep cover during and after the murder of JFK to cover up the assassination.

Comment: The important point here is that he among very few held the perfect 360 regarding crime internally within the CIA/FBI. Most importantly he could wreck careers, blackmail and kill off those reaching for knowledge regarding the murder.


Item 3. Angleton was on top of "espionage" between Israel, the Soviet Union and America. He and Kissinger clearly worked in the interests of furthering Zionist control over both "Goy" nations by increasing the fear of internal intelligence "terrorism" via their carefully planted "turn-coat" agents. The "loyal" spy game is one they worked on all sides to solidify Jewish control over Global communication flows.

Item 10. Jewish reporters and tabloid writers fawn at their pet important Jew criminal (Angleton).

Item 10. He protected Kissinger and laid the (ground) work for more Mossad-Jews like the NeoCons to rise in the early 1970s to positions totally undeserved in Washington, DC. (Angleton spearheaded front facing Jewish control over politics in the USA by "specialists" which ended up to be like Ledeen - former Trotsky Jewish revolutionaries that debased the non-Jew cultures they came in contact with.

Item 11. He (Angleton) directed the Mossad to kill Kennedy and made sure that his boy in town "GHW Bush" would help cover up the "hang-out" from the scenario.
He likely placed GHW Bush in the circle of discrete trust as long as they were found useful.

Item 14. His Talmudic mind games allowed Jews world wide to rule unseen, undetected and unaccused in the world for at least 25 years. Angleton likely did Chertoff's Mossad Jew dual loyalist mother in the deserts of Negev. Sorry this is a spiteful jab at the idiot Jew Chertoff. He kind of looks like Chertoff with the same ugly Jew face peering from a dumb socket Jew Skull.




The Core and Central part of this research is that...
by Crack_Smoke_Republican on 02.08.2008 [04:23 ]    
Jews Globally worked together to extract as much as possible from Goyim in both the "free world" (Capitalistic) and "Communist world" (typical Jew Shetl socialism). Both have been a waste for "goyim" in Western Europe and America at the delight of the idiot Jews.

BTW, another correction. This headline should read:
Angleton saw that Jewish power in the Soviet Union and the power of Jewish intelligence agencies in the USA was waning. He need another "False Flag" to bolster Jewish parasitical control. His Mossad next generation in Washington, D.C. and Tel Aviv would practice and hone all the possible outcomes of the master "false flag" on 9/11 as per Angleton's idiot Jew "sage" guidance. Looking back, it is dumb obvious the Jews did in Kennedy and did 9/11 for their own internal idiot Jew "Security" purposes.

The worst assumptions about Israeli's and their leadres are patently true - they are a force of evil on the earth. Their Jew puppets in the US congress and Whitehouse merely mouth to please these idiot smarmy Jews.

3. JJA personal records. Angleton took a seven-month leave of absence to remain in Tucson, Arizona for unspecified reasons not substantiated by the need to be with his wife and family as is believed by other writers regarding Angleton's absence from CIA Washington headquarters during May through December 1947; COLD WARRIOR JAMES JESUS ANGLETON: THE CIA'S MASTER SPY CATCHER by Tom Mangold, Touchstone Book published by Simon & Schuster, 1991, p. 361.

www. rense.com/politics6/secret.htm

4. The National Security Council on December 12, 1947, had adopted measures to counter the espionage and counterespionage threat as specified in NSCID 1 and later amended in NSCID 5 that authorized the Director of Central Intelligence to "conduct all organized Federal espionage and counterespionage operations." According to CIA Historian Arthur B. Darling, atomic weapons research became an overriding issue and coordination with the Office of Scientific Research and Development with the AEC through CIA consultant Dr. H.P. Robertson through General Vandenberg's directive containing an agreement between Dr. Vannevar Bush which facilitated the transfer of Manhattan Engineering District files to the Director of Central Intelligence for proper collection of foreign atomic energy research. Secret OSO activities in this area was not allowed to fall into administrative control of the AEC nor FBI which Vandenberg thought should remain within CIA intelligence operations; THE CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE AGENCY: AN INSTRUMENT OF GOVERNMENT TO 1950 by Arthur B. Darling, Penn State Press, 1990, pp. 197-239.

Great Contribution!  

[CrackSmokeRepublican]

Here's more evidence of the Marrano Jew James Jesus Angleton's involvement.  ANGLETON likely covered up the USS Liberty attack by Israel and was likely the source to "Call off" rescue ships heading towards the Liberty.  Angelton likely had communication intercepts of the murders in the desert as well as Israeli internal communications.  The USS Liberty attack was Jewish murder in total. Inside Jewish treachery was necessary for it to be pulled off.
--
http://www.heartbone.com/nine11/USSLiberty.html

Defenders of Israel demand to know why the Israelis would desire the total destruction of the Liberty and the mass murder of all aboard.  The explanation is simple: The Liberty was a spy ship, gathering intelligence information that would have demonstrated that contrary to Israel's public propaganda line, Israel was seeking to escalate the 1967 Six-Day War then in progress, attempting to expand its territorial gains, planning an incursion into Arab territories in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip and that Israel, not the Arab states, was the real aggressor and intended to invade Syria.

  A Spotlight report of Nov. 21, 1977 implicated the CIA's counterintelligence chief, James J. Angleton, in having conspired with Israel in orchestrating the attack on the Liberty.

   An Israeli loyalist who headed the CIA's liaison with Israel's intelligence agency, the Mossad, and who also played a key role in helping Israel develop its nuclear arsenal (in defiance of President John F. Kennedy), Angleton believed the destruction of the Liberty could be used as a "Pearl Harbor" or "Remember the Maine" type incident to inflame American passions against the Arabs.

some more issue :

Has the JFK Assassination been finally solved?



        from an amateur historian, a citizen who has studied the JFK Asassination for decades now
        My estimation is that about eighty percent of the JFK Asassination Conspiracy material
        is smokescreen and/or outright bunk.

        I herewith submit some authors and titles on the subject
        whom I regards as honest authors
        each one revealing a distinct angle of the JFK case.

        That way other students of the JFK Conspiracy
        will have a way to tell if I know what Im saying.

        Here is a good reading list

        Mark Lane - Plausible Denial
        Richard? Grodin - High Treason
        Walt Brown - Teachery in Dallas
        Dick Thomas - The Man Who Knew Too Much
        (last book is rich with striking data but seems impossible to find a copy -
        the one i read my friend found at a garage sale in Ohio,
        a hardbound, about 800 pages 200 of which are footnotes)

        Two GREAT novels also have inside info on the JFK Assassination

        Norman Mailer - Harlot's Ghost
        James McElroy? - American Tabloid

        Opium Lords is a new account of the JFK conspiracy
        that seems to make a lot of sense;
        the author picked up the research
        of New Orleans DA Jim Garrison on the Permindex connection.

        A lot of what I read here was new to me still it dovetailed with
        the mental outline I have of the case after my study and reading
        that a British agent in Montreal was involved in the coup'd'etat.

        The author makes a strong case and I happily I do herewith swear
        and certify that I do NOT know the author
        or any of the author's family or friends;
        I am a veteran JFK Conspiracy student who is blown away
        by this trenchant analysis and wish to recommend it highly.

        Opium Lords

        Synopsis

        After President John F. Kennedy was killed in 1963,
        America became deeply involved in the Vietnam War.

        Within a few short years, heroin addiction in America
        reached epidemic proportions. In the background,
        Israel expanded its borders by force and became
        a colonial empire ruling a nation of hostile Palestinian subjects.

        This book reveals how Israel exploited the Western powers' long history of opium trafficking
        as a means of toppling the young American president.

        The following points summarize the information presented:

        Opium was the glue that held together the rivaling factions that conspired to kill JFK.

        The main factions in the conspiracy were Zionist instigators,
        the American Mafia (headed by Jewish mobster Meyer Lansky
        and his lieutenant, Santo Trafficante),
        French-Corsican crime syndicates in Marseilles,
        France and Southeast Asia, and the US military.

        Heroin smuggling was first introduced in the United States
        in the 1920s by Jewish gangsters such as Meyer Lansky,
        "Legs" Diamond, and "Dutch" Schultz.

        One of the reasons President Johnson escalated US involvement
        in Southeast Asia was because the American Mafia
        and French-Corsican heroin traffickers needed
        a new source of opium for their heroin factories.

        Turkey had been the main source,
        but its government was about to eradicate opium production.

        Joseph Kennedy, Sr's three sons were viewed as a new American
        dynasty that threatened Israel's plans to expand its borders.

        The Kennedy Dynasty would last until 1985 if each son
        served two terms in the White House. It is widely known
        that Joseph Kennedy Sr developed a strong loathing of Jews
        from his business dealings with them in finance,
        Hollywood, and politics.

        A decree was issued to kill JFK by Nahum Goldmann,
        founder of the World Jewish Congress and its president in 1963.

        Louis Bloomfield of Montreal was assigned to set up the coup d'état.

        He was an influential international lawyer
        with an extensive espionage background
        (e.g., British intelligence, Haganah, OSS, CIA).

        Martin Agronsky and other Jewish journalists and media moguls
        collaborated in the plot by pushing a false cover story
        that Lee Harvey Oswald alone killed JFK.

        Right-wing extremists joined the coup initially
        but broke ranks and declared a holy war against Jews
        immediately after JFK was killed.

        The assassins were the lieutenants of French-Corsican heroin trafficker
        and convicted Nazi collaborator, Auguste Joseph Ricord.
        He was living in Argentina at the time of the assassination.

        Later he moved to Paraguay which became
        a major hub for smuggling heroin into the United States.

        The assassins were Lucien Sarti, François Chiappe,

Ever Read this one? It's a bittorrent.  Pulls some loose ends of the killing together.  Today, I assume that any assassination is in some way connected back to Israeli Zionists or a compromised US intelligence agency.  Always remember, that someone high up had to have a hand in "FAKING" the Zapruder film, somebody in the US Intelligence agencies.  It was in real time.

This is Salvador Astucia's shocking book Opium Lords - Israel, the Golden Triangle and the Kennedy assassination (2002) which reveals that the America's only Catholic President was killed by an assassination conspiracy that included the CIA, the Mossad, the Meyer Lansky crime organization and international Jewry. The theory is well elaborated and convincing. Salvador Astucia's work is well written and thoroughly documented. There are many important and excellent insights throughout. This amazing book reveals how Israel exploited the Western powers' long history of opium trafficking as a means of toppling the young American president. The main factions in the conspiracy were Zionist instigators, the American Mafia (headed by Jewish mobster Meyer Lansky), French-Corsican crime syndicates in Marseilles, France and Southeast Asia, and the US military. Lyndon Johnson was also a key participant and an aggressive supporter of Israel because he and his wife were apparently secretly Jewish. Opium was the glue that held together the rivaling factions that conspired to kill JFK. Once Kennedy was out of the way, President Johnson began to shift America's foreign policy dramatically as America became deeply involved in the Vietnam War. Within a few short years, heroin addiction in America reached epidemic proportions. In the background, Israel expanded its borders by force and became a colonial empire ruling a nation of hostile Palestinian subjects. First of all, he increased military forces in South Vietnam from 16,000 non-combat advisors to over 500,000 draftees by the time he left office in January 1969. Secondly, he joined America and Israel at the hip by increasing financial and military aid and becoming its ally during the Six Day War, an aggressive land-grab that was immediately labeled illegal by the United Nations per Resolutions 242 and later 338. Since then, one president after another has given Israel virtually everything it wants. During Kennedy's last year in office, in 1963, the United States provided a mere $40 million per year to Israel. Within only two years, President Johnson had increased that amount to $130 million per year, over three times Kennedy's allowance. Most of the Johnson money was for military buildup. Since Kennedy's death, the annual subsidy to Israel has grown into the billions (presently about $3 billion per year), but the Johnson administration marked a true turning point. In fact, American aid to Israel has far exceeded the total US payments to reconstruct postwar Europe under the Marshall Plan. A daring expose of secret Israeli involvment in the assassination of JFK and the consequences which followed later. 320 pages. A must read from everyone.

A very interesting fact on Edward Jay Epstein. This old Jew reporter met De Mohrenschildt. Epstein also interviewed James Jesus Angleton above on his career in murdering Goyim. The Jew Epstein likely tipped off the Jew Intelligence Mafia on De Mohrenschildt.  :!:

From Salvador Astucia's book: Opium Lords - Israel, the Golden Triangle and the Kennedy Assassination
----------------
On March 29, 1977, George de Mohrenschildt was found dead of a gunshot blast to
the head at his sister-in-law's fashionable home in Manalapan, Florida. De
Mohrenschildt had been Oswald's handler in Dallas (reference Chapter 6). His death
was ruled suicide.22 He died three hours after arranging to meet investigator, Gaeton
Fonzi,(Footnote 76) from the House Select Committee on Assassinations.23 Earlier that
day, de Mohrenschildt had met with writer Edward Jay Epstein.24
Epstein is a highly suspicious individual. In 1969, he wrote Counterplot which
attacked Garrison and his prosecution of Clay Shaw. Epstein wrote another
propagandistic book, Legend (1978), which pushed the cover story that the Soviet
KGB sponsored the Kennedy assassination, and that Oswald was working for them. In
1966, Epstein wrote Inquest, a mild critique of the Warren Report which was hailed
by the media—a telling indictment of his virtue.

An old but great article by Michael Collins Piper.  Piper asks the most import question first: "WHY?" rather than "How?".  This is true of 9/11 and the Liberty bombing, etc.  

----------
The Mossad Role in the JFK Assassination Conspiracy
by Michael Collins Piper

"A nation that is afraid to debate it's issues in a public forum, is a nation that is afraid of it's people." - JFK

French intelligence officer Herve Lemarr once wrote that:

"President Kennedy's assassination was the work of magicians. It was a stage trick, complete with accessories and false mirrors, and when the curtain fell the actors, and even the scenery, disappeared. But the magicians were not illusionists but professionals, artists in their way."

Since November 22, 1963 many have spent vast amounts of time researching the assassination, putting forth a wide variety of theories.

Most of the research has been devoted to what one more perceptive critic described as "a consuming preoccupation with the microanalytic searching for facts of how the assassination was accomplished," while at the same time, he points out "there has been almost no systematic thinking on why President Kennedy was killed."

So while people have focused on how many assassins were involved, and how many shots they fired at JFK and where the shots came from and where the bullets hit, the real question of who was ultimately responsible for the assassination—not who fired the bullets, but who sponsored the assassins who fired those bullets—has been ignored.

Thus, to find out who is responsible for JFK's murder, we have to find out WHY he was murdered—what motivated those who orchestrated his assassination.

Consider the wide-ranging array of suspects that have been put forth:

• Lee Harvey Oswald, acting alone;
• The Soviet KGB;
• Fidel Castro;
• Anti-Castro Cubans;
• The "Mafia";
• Rogue CIA operatives and anti-Castro Cubans in collaboration with elements of "the Mafia";
• J. Edgar Hoover and the FBI;
• Lyndon Baines Johnson;
• Former Nazi intelligence officers;
•†The Texas Oil Barons; and
• The Military-Industrial Complex.

Ten years ago, in 1992, a new suspect was added to the list. Former Rep. Paul Findley (R-Ill.) made the little-noticed but intriguing comment in the March 1992 issue of The Washington Report on Middle East Affairs that "it is interesting but not surprising to note that in all the words written about the assassination of John F. Kennedy, Israel's intelligence agency, the Mossad, has never been mentioned, despite the obvious fact Mossad complicity is as plausible as any of the other theories."

What Findley did not know was at that very time I was in the process of preparing a volume contending that the Mossad role alongside the CIA in the JFK assassination, was, in fact, the big secret—the "missing link"—that explained the entirety of the JFK conspiracy.

The Mossad role is what I have also called "the secret picture on the other side of the jigsaw puzzle" of the JFK assassination conspiracy. My book summarizing this theory is entitled Final Judgment.

What I find quite remarkable is that while many Israelis today believe that Israeli intelligence played a part in the assassination of Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin, many of Israel's friends in America have reacted quite hysterically to my contention that the Mossad played a role in the assassination of America's president.

In addition, although there are many who believe that the CIA had a hand in the JFK assassination, quite a few of those same people are fearful of mentioning the likelihood of a Mossad role. Yet, as journalist Andrew Cockburn has pointed out:

"There has been since almost the earliest days of the Israeli state and the earliest days of the CIA a secret bond, basically by which Israeli intelligence did jobs for the CIA and for the rest of American intelligence. You can't understand what's been going on with American covert operations and the Israeli covert operations until you understand this secret arrangement."

Cockburn's words are a rough overview of the thesis that I have presented in Final Judgment.

Although Final Judgment has never been in any major bookstore since it was first published nearly a decade ago, some 30,000 copies are in circulation—more copies than more widely-publicized books on the topic. It is truly an "underground best-seller." It is now in its 760-page fifth edition, documented with 1,114 footnotes. And on November 9, Dar El Ilm Lilmalayin, the oldest and largest privately-owned publishing house in the Middle East released the first-ever Arabic-language edition.

In many respects, Final Judgment is more than a book about the JFK assassination. It also reveals the hidden global power politics of the last half of the 20th century.

Final Judgment documents that in 1963 JFK was embroiled in a bitter secret conflict with Israeli leader David Ben-Gurion over Israel's drive to build the atomic bomb; that Ben-Gurion resigned in disgust, saying that because of JFK's policies, Israel's "existence was in danger." Then upon JFK's assassination, U.S. policy toward Israel began an immediate 180-degree turnaround.

Israeli historian Avner Cohen's new book, Israel and the Bomb, confirms the conflict between JFK and Israel so powerfully that, Israel's Ha'aretz, declared Cohen's revelations would "necessitate the rewriting of Israel's entire history."

In any case, Cohen pointed out, "the transition from Kennedy to Lyndon Johnson . . . benefited the Israeli nuclear program."

Ethan Bronner, in the New York Times, called Israel's drive to build a nuclear bomb "a fiercely hidden subject."

This explains why JFK researchers never considered an Israeli connection until Final Judgment supplied the missing pieces, assembling "the secret picture on the other side of the jigsaw puzzle."

While all of this presents a strong motive for Israel to strike against JFK, Final Judgment also documents what Israeli journalist Barry Chamish says is "a pretty cogent case" for Mossad collaboration with the CIA in the assassination conspiracy.

The fact is that when New Orleans District Attorney Jim Garrison prosecuted trade executive Clay Shaw with conspiracy in the assassination, Garrison had stumbled upon the Mossad link.

Although (after his acquittal) Shaw was revealed to have been a CIA asset, in 1963 Shaw served on the board of a Rome-based company, Permindex, which was actually a front for a Mossad-sponsored arms procurement operation.

A primary shareholder in Permindex, the Banque De Credit Internationale of Geneva, was not only the fiefdom of Tibor Rosenbaum, a high-level Mossad official, but also the chief money laundry for Meyer Lansky, "chairman" of the crime syndicate and long-time Israeli loyalist.

Chief executive of Permindex was Louis Bloomfield of Montreal, a top figure in the Israeli lobby and an operative of the Bronfman family, intimate Lansky associates and leading patrons of Israel.

Permindex was clearly the Israeli link to the JFK assassination, so much so that Jim Garrison himself later circulated the manuscript for a never-published novel in which he fingered the Mossad as prime mover behind the conspiracy although Garrison never otherwise mentioned a Mossad connection publicly.

You may ask why Hollywood's so-called "radical film-maker" Oliver Stone, whose film JFK was a virtual tribute to Garrison never mentioned any of this.

I would contend that Stone failed to mention these details in JFK because the film was financed by Arnon Milchan, an Israeli arms dealer linked to smuggling of materiel to Israel's nuclear program—the very point of contention between JFK and Israel.

Milchan's role in the production of JFK is no secret, by the way. He is listed in the credits as "executive producer," which, in Hollywood parlance, means that he was the "money man," so to speak, behind the film.

The Permindex link investigated by Mr. Garrison in New Orleans also explains the "French connection" to the assassination featured in the widely-seen documentary The Men Who Killed Kennedy, but which failed to tell the entire story told in Final Judgment. For example:

That the aforementioned Permindex operation (involving Clay Shaw and other CIA assets often publicly connected to the JFK assassination) was also involved in assassination attempts against French President Charles DeGaulle by the French "Secret Army Organization" (the OAS) which itself had close ties to the Mossad.

Like the OAS, the Israelis hated DeGaulle not only because he gave independence to Algeria, a major new Arab state, but also because DeGaulle, who had assisted Israel's nuclear development program, had withdrawn support, objecting (as did JFK) to Israel's drive for an atomic arsenal.

In the course of my writing of the book, a former French intelligence officer—Pierre Neuville, the son of the former French consul general in Jerusalem—revealed to me that he had learned that the Mossad contracted out one of JFK's assassins—probably a Corsican hitman—through a French intelligence official disloyal to DeGaulle and who hated JFK for supporting Algerian independence.

JFK was also planning a strike against Red China's nuclear bomb program—a plan scuttled by Lyndon Johnson within a month of JFK's assassination.

During this same period, in fact, Israel and Red China were involved in joint secret nuclear bomb research with a key player in the Permindex web, Shaul Eisenberg, serving as the Mossad's liaison with China.

Final Judgment was first to point out that James Angleton, the CIA liaison to the Mossad, was a devoted partisan of Israel who not only orchestrated the scenario linking accused assassin Lee Oswald to the Soviet KGB but who later circulated disinformation to confuse investigations into the assassination.

This is a brief overview of some of the more salient points made in Final Judgment—points that have otherwise been largely ignored in the massive amount of material that has been published on the topic of the assassination.

The response to my thesis has been predictable. Israeli diplomat Uri Palti, based at the Israeli consulate in Los Angeles, has described my thesis as "nonsense."

Pro-Zionist columnist George F. Will, in a column in Newsweek on Sept. 1, 1997, has referred to the thesis as being "vicious intellectual licentiousness."

The Anti-Defamation League of B'nai B'rith (the ADL) one of the foremost elements of the Israeli lobby, has repeatedly attacked me in a most malicious fashion. Most notably, the ADL called me a "Holocaust denier"—although my book mentions nothing about the Holocaust—this so as to distract attention from the very powerful thesis that my book does present.

However, one article about the controversy surrounding my thesis and one educator who has endorsed it, appearing in the Los Angeles Times on November 25, 1996 made the assertion that the thesis was "novel indeed" and that it managed "to weave together some of the key threads in a tapestry that many say is unique."

However, as we all know too well, the reason why the theory presented in Final Judgment is "controversial" is simply because it dares to say something less than flattering about a foreign nation—Israel.

The truth is that the single tie that binds all of the most commonly-believed theories about the JFK assassination is the little-known Mossad connection.

Israel, however, is the central player whose role has been consistently ignored.

The first big question is whether Israel's Mossad would actually consider assassinating an American president perceived hostile to Israel?

According to ex-Mossad man Victor Ostrovsky, the Israeli spy agency hatched a plan to kill President George Bush in 1991.

There is also evidence that the Jewish underground in Palestine in 1947 sent poisoned letters to President Harry Truman because he was dragging his feet as far as supporting the drive for a Jewish state was concerned. This information comes from Truman's daughter, Margaret Truman, writing in a biography of her father.

The point is this: if Israel did indeed consider assassinating Bush in 1991 and Truman in 1947, why should we not also consider the possibility that the Mossad was indeed involved in a plot against John F. Kennedy in 1963?

And in this context it should now be noted that researchers in the JFK controversy have repeatedly pointed out the false leads that continue to appear.

Most believe that Lee Harvey Oswald, the alleged assassin, was indeed what he claimed to be—the patsy—and that false clues had been laid by the real conspirators to make it appear as though Oswald was an agent of Fidel Castro or the Soviets or both.

A key chapter in Final Judgment points out that Israel has what I call "a bad habit"—that is, the use of what are known as "false flags" in pointing the finger of guilt elsewhere in the course of committing assassinations and acts of terrorism.

That chapter is a virtual catalogue of this little-known phenomenon, which is perhaps best exemplifed by Israel's notorious Lavon Affair of the 1950s in which Israel staged bombings on American and British installations in Egypt for the purpose of blaming them on Islamic fundamentalist groups and destabilizing the regime of President Nasser.

Although the American media today promotes the idea that somehow John F. Kennedy was a dedicated friend of Israel, nothing could be further from the truth.

There was a long history of bitter enmity between John F. Kennedy and his powerful father, Ambassador Joseph P. Kennedy and organized crime boss Meyer Lansky, stemming in part from the senior Kennedy's deals with the underworld. This, however, did not stop the Kennedy family from cutting deals with the crime syndicate when it came to winning elections.

The Kennedy family's own suspected anti-Semitism didn't do anything to improve JFK's relations with Israel and its American lobby either. As a U.S. Senator, Kennedy's intervention in the issue of Algerian independence from France also drew sharp criticism from the Israeli lobby as well.

Yet, when John F. Kennedy sought the presidency, he was willing to cut deals with the Israeli lobby—for a price.

By the end of his presidency, however, Kennedy had reneged on his deals, not only with Israel's Godfather, Meyer Lansky, and his henchmen in organized crime, but also with the Israeli lobby.

What about the so-called "Mafia" or organized crime connections to the assassination? In fact, those connections also point toward the Mossad.

If it had not been for international crime boss Meyer Lansky there might not be a state of Israel today. This is something that Israel would rather be forgotten.

The evidence firmly indicates that Israel was established as a state, in major part, through the political, financial and moral support of Meyer Lansky and his associates and henchmen in Organized Crime. Lansky's interests and Israel's interests were almost incestuous.

As I've already noted, Lansky's chief European money laundering bank was an operation directed by one of Israel's founding fathers, Tibor Rosenbaum, a high-ranking, longtime Mossad officer.

Lansky's intimate (and quite secret) ties with American intelligence (including both the CIA and the FBI) made the Russian-born Jewish mobster the "untouchable" leader of the global organized crime syndicate.

Meyer Lansky's Louisiana front man, Carlos Marcello, has become a favorite target for JFK assassination researchers who like to claim that "The Mafia--that is, Italian-American crime figures--Killed JFK."

Marcello was only one cog in the Lansky Syndicate. Marcello also had ties to Israel's allies in the CIA.

Two other top Italian-AMerican crime figures—Johnny Rosselli and Santo Trafficante, Jr. have often linked to the JFK assassination.

Although both Rosselli and Trafficante were major players in the criminal underworld, both were, in fact—like Carlos Marcello—subordinates of Meyer Lansky.

Rosselli and Trafficante were Lansky's point men in Lansky's dealings with Israel's allies in the CIA in assassination plots against Fidel Castro.

In truth, the Jewish presence in organized crime in America is a little-known phenomenon that the "Mafia"-obsessed media has kept under wraps.

What about Jack Ruby, the Jewish nightclub operator, who killed Lee Harvey Oswald, the president's accused assassin?

Ruby's connections to the criminal underworld are well-documented. However, what is ignored is Ruby's integral link to the Meyer Lansky Crime Syndicate—not "the Mafia"— and to Israel's allies in the CIA.

In Final Judgment I have documented additional connections between Jack Ruby and the state of Israel and its arms-smuggling and financial conduits in the United States.

FBI documents, long suppressed, reveal that Ruby himself traveled to Israel in 1955 and that while in San Francisco that year, Ruby told a friend, "After I leave here I'm going to Florida to buy a load of contraband to send to Israel."

In addition, note that Lawrence Meyers, Ruby's long-time friend with whom he met the night before the JFK assassination, was a salesman for Ero Manufacturing, a firm linked to a corporation investigated for illegal arms shipments to Israel.

In addition, we also now know that Jack Ruby was on the payroll of the Lansky Crime Syndicate-connected Bronfman family (now headed by Edgar Bronfman, leader of the World Jewish Congress).

Considering the Bronfman family's intimate ties to the Mossad-sponsored Permindex entity that played a central role in the JFK assassination conspiracy, the Ruby connection to the Bronfman family does point toward yet another Israeli connection to the JFK conspiracy.

The genesis of Israeli involvement in the JFK assassination was JFK's growing conflict with Israel over Israel's drive to build the nuclear bomb.

While the history books have told us of John F. Kennedy's epic struggles with Fidel Castro and with the Soviets in the Bay of Pigs debacle and the Cuban Missile Crisis only in recent years have we begun to learn of Kennedy's secret war with Israel.

By mid-1963 Israeli Prime Minister David Ben-Gurion hated Kennedy with a passion. In fact, he considered JFK a threat to the very survival of the Jewish State.

As far as writing specifically about what I have called "JFK's secret war with Israel," I primarily relied on three sources:

1) The Samson Option: Israel's Nuclear Arsenal and American Foreign Policy by Pulitizer Prize-winning veteran New York Times journalist Seymour Hersh.

2) Dangerous Liasion: The Inside Story of the U.S.-Israeli Covert Relationship by husband-and-wife team, Andrew and Leslie Cockburn, both respected liberal journalists; and

3) Taking Sides: America's Secret Relations With a Militant Israel by Stephen Green, who has been associated with the very "mainstream" Council on Foreign Relations and the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace.

Hersh and Green, by the way, are Jewish. All three books were published by respected "mainstream" publishing houses.

No honest JFK assassination researcher can claim to be fully versed in the dynamics of conspiracy until he or she has read these volumes, all of which make it very clear that JFK and Israeli Prime Minister David Ben-Gurion were at serious loggerheads, to the point that Ben-Gurion believed that JFK's policy was a threat to Israel's very survival--and said so.

Upon JFK's assassination, American policy toward the Middle East did an amazing 180 degree turn-about--the most immediate result of the American president's murder.

This is a cold, hard, indisputable fact not subject to debate. The evidence is all too clear.

In Final Judgment I pointed out, citing Hersh, that the Israeli press and the world press "told the world that Ben-Gurion's sudden resignation was a result of his dissatisfaction with domestic political scandals and turmoil that were rocking Israel."

However, Hersh went on to say, quite significantly, that there was "no way for the Israeli public" to know that there was "yet another factor" behind the resignation: specifically, in Hersh's words, Ben-Gurion's "increasingly bitter impasse with Kennedy over a nuclear-armed Israel."

The final showdown with JFK over the nuclear bomb was clearly, the "primary reason" behind Ben-Gurion's resignation.

The drive to build a nuclear bomb was not only a major aim of Israel's defense policy (its very foundation) and also a particular special interest of Ben-Gurion.

The fact is that Seymour Hersh's revelations about JFK and Ben-Gurion have been easily eclipsed by a more recent volume on the same subject—this one written by an Israeli scholar, Avner Cohen.

When Cohen released his 1999 book Israel and the Bomb (New York: Columbia University Press), the book created quite a sensation in Israel to the point that journalist Tom Segev writing in the Israeli newspaper Ha'aretz, declared that "Cohen's book will necessitate the rewriting of Israel's entire history."

In the opening pages of his book, Cohen writes at length about Ben-Gurion's special interest in the construction of an Israeli nuclear bomb and the reasoning behind it.

Cohen has written, in part:

Ben-Gurion was consumed by fears for Israel's security . . .

In his correspondence with President John F. Kennedy in 1963, he wrote:

"Mr. President, my people have the right to exist, both in Israel and wherever that may live, and this existence is in danger." . . .

Israeli military planners have always considered a scenario in which a united Arab military coalition launched a war against Israel with the aim of liberating Palestine and destroying the Jewish state. This was referred to in the early 1950s as mikre hkol, or the "everything scenario."

This kind of planning was unique to Israel, as few nations have military contingency plans aimed at preventing apocalypse.

Ben-Gurion had no qualms about Israel's need for weapons of mass destruction . . . Ben Gurion saw Arab hostility toward Israel as deep and long-lasting . . . Ben-Gurion's pessimism . . . influenced Israel's foreign and defense policy for years. Ben-Gurion's world view and his decisive governing style shaped his critical role in initiating Israel's nuclear program.

On 27 June 1963, eleven days after he announced his resignation, Ben-Gurion delivered a farewell address to the employees of the Armaments Development Authority in which . . . he provided the justification for the nuclear project:

"I do not know of any other nation whose neighbors declare that they wish to terminate it, and not only declare, but prepare for it by all means available to them. We must have no illusions that what is declared every day in Cairo, Damascus, Iraq are just words.

This is the thought that guides the Arab leaders . . . I am confident . . . that science is able to provide us with the weapon that will secure the peace, and deter our enemies."

To summarize:

The "nuclear option" was not only at the very core of Ben-Gurion's personal worldview, but the very foundation of Israel's national security policy.

The Israelis were essentially willing, if necessary, to "blow up the world"—including themselves—if they had to do so in order to defeat their Arab foes.

This is what Seymour Hersh notes Israeli nuclear planners considered "the Samson Option"—that, as Samson of the Bible, after being captured by the Philistines, brought down Dagon's Temple in Gaza and killed himself along with his enemies.

As Hersh put it, on page 137 in his book, "For Israel's nuclear advocates, the Samson Option became another way of saying 'Never again," (in reference to preventing another Holocaust).

All of the evidence, taken together in the big picture, clearly demonstrates that it was indeed "The Sampton Option" that was indeed the primary cause of Ben-Gurion's resignation.

The bottom line is that—in 1963—the issue of JFK's conflict with Ben-Gurion was a secret to both the Israeli public and the American public and remained so for more than 20 years at least and still remains so, despite the release of Hersh's book, followed by Final Judgment and then the book by Avner Cohen.

Avner Cohen's very powerful book essentially confirmed everything that Hersh had written but went even further.

Cohen describes how the conflict between JFK and Ben-Gurion was reaching its pinnacle in 1963 and how, on June 16 of that year, JFK sent a letter to the Israeli leader that Cohen says on page 134 of his book was "the toughest and most explicit message" yet. Cohen adds:

The purpose of the letter was to solidify the terms of the American visits to Israel's nuclear plant at Dimona in a way that would accord with these minimum conditions on which the intelligence community insisted.

To force Ben-Gurion to accept the conditions, Kennedy exerted the most useful leverage available to an American president in dealing with Israel: a threat that an unsatisfactory solution would jeopardize the U.S. government's commitment to, and support of, Israel . . . The showdown Ben-Gurion was trying to avoid now appeared imminent.

Ben-Gurion never read the letter. It was cabled to U.S. Ambassador to Israel Walworth Barbour on Saturday, 15 June, with instructions to deliver it by hand to Ben-Gurion the next day, but on that Sunday, Ben-Gurion announced his resignation.

Cohen says that Ben-Gurion never provided an explanation for his decision, except in reference to "personal reasons." To his cabinet colleagues Ben-Gurion said that he "must" resign and that "no state problem or event caused it."

Cohen adds on page 136 that Ben-Gurion had "concluded that he could not tell the truth about Dimona to American leaders, not even in private."

And this is saying a lot, considering the effort by critics of Final Judgment to say that Israel and the United States are such "close allies" that the Israelis would never ever think of doing something nasty to an American president—even one who was adamantly determined to stop Israel from establishing a nuclear defense system that the nation's leaders considered critical to the nation's survival.

I should add that French President DeGaulle's reversal on the issue of what was clearly critical French support for Israel's nuclear ambitions is quite significant indeed, particularly in light of what is documented in Final Judgment.

Without going into all of the details here (which can easily be found in Final Judgment in very much detail), the fact is that Permindex, the Mossad-sponsored money laundering and arms procurement operation that New Orleans District Attorney Jim Garrison unearthed during his JFK assassination inquiry had also been connected to assassination attempts on Charles DeGaulle prior to the assassination of President Kennedy.

It is no coincidence that Permindex should be connected to assassination conspiracies aimed against two foreign leaders who happened to be united in their opposition to Israel's nuclear ambitions.

In addition, as Final Judgment also documents, based on a variety of "responsible" sources, the Israelis had yet another reason to oppose DeGaulle:

The French president had granted independence to the French colony of Arab Algeria, an action that inflamed not only Israel, but certain elements in DeGaulle's own military and intelligence services and brought them into alliance with Israel against DeGaulle.

Those interested in the specifics of this matter may refer to Final Judgment, but suffice it to say, there is much more to the French connection.

In any case, what happened between JFK and the new Israeli prime minister, Levi Eshkol, who succeeded Ben-Gurion upon the latter's resignation is significant.

Immediately upon Eshkol's succession, JFK wrote a letter to the new prime minister that was evidently even more fierce than JFK's previous communications with Ben-Gurion. Avner Cohen writes:

Not since Eisenhower's message to Ben-Gurion in the midst of the Suez crisis in November 1956 had an American president been so blunt with an Israeli prime minister.

Kennedy told Eshkol that the U.S. commitment and support of Israel "could be seriously jeopardized" if Israel did not let the United States obtain "reliable information" about its efforts in the nuclear field.

Kennedy presented detailed technical instructions on how his requirements should be executed.

Kennedy's demands were unprecedented. They amounted, in effect, to an ultimatum.

Cohen notes on page 159 that: "From Eshkol's perspective, Kennedy's demands seemed diplomatically inappropriate; they were inconsistent with national sovereignty. There was no legal basis or political precedent for such demands," Cohen says "Kennedy's letter precipitated a near-crisis situation in the prime minister's office."

So Kennedy was as equally upsetting to the new prime minister as he had been to David Ben-Gurion!

Kennedy's pressure on Israel did not end with the resignation of Ben-Gurion. Instead, it clearly intensified.

Cohen then describes a "November secret meeting" held in Washington, D.C (November 13-14) between the Israelis and the Americans and says that Israel "had a broader agenda . . . than the United States was willing to discuss."

Yet, Cohen notes the nuclear issue was so sensitive that during face-to-face secret meetings between United States and Israeli officials when they were discussing other issues, the subject of Israel's nuclear bomb was not discussed.

The issue was that inflammatory. It was left for future discussion. But JFK was assassinated eight days later, and the dynamics of the U.S.-Israeli relationship changed dramatically as a consequence.

The Israeli newspaper, Ha'aretz, published a review of Cohen's book on February 5, 1999, calling it "a bombshell of a book." The Ha'aretz review, by Reuven Pedatzur, is quite interesting. It reads in part:

The murder of American President John F. Kennedy brought to an abrupt end the massive pressure being applied by the U.S. administration on the government of Israel to discontinue the nuclear program.

Cohen demonstrates at length the pressures applied by Kennedy on Ben-Gurion. He brings the fascinating exchange of letters between the two, in which Kennedy makes it quite clear to the Israeli prime minister that he will under no circumstances agree to Israel becoming a nuclear state.

The book implied that, had Kennedy remained alive, it is doubtful whether Israel would today have a nuclear option.

I couldn't put it better myself. If this were a court case, I could rightly say, at this juncture, "The defense rests."

According to historian Stephen Green: "Perhaps the most significant development of 1963 for the Israeli nuclear weapons program, however, occurred on November 22 on a plane flying from Dallas to Washington, D.C., Lyndon Baines Johnson was sworn in as the 36th President of the United States, following the assassination of John F. Kennedy.

Green writes: "In the early years of the Johnson administration the Israeli nuclear weapons program was referred to in Washington as 'the delicate topic.' Lyndon Johnson's White House saw no Dimona, heard no Dimona, and spoke no Dimona when the reactor went critical in early 1964."

Thus it was that the critical point of dispute between John F. Kennedy and the Mossad-dominated government of Israel was no longer an issue. The new American president—so long a partisan of Israel—allowed the nuclear development to continue. This was just the beginning.

There is an aside to all of this that should be noted: Final Judgment documents a Peking connection to the JFK assassination conspiracy, relating directly to Israel's secret nuclear allliance with China.

Not only U.S. policy toward Israel reversed upon JFK's assassination. Although it's virtually forgotten, John F. Kennedy was planning a military assault on Red China's nuclear weapons development facilities in the months prior to his assassination. However, one month after JFK's death, Lyndon Johnson canceled the project and allowed China to proceed with the assembly of its nuclear arsenal.

The big secret is that at the time of JFK's assassination, Israel's Mossad and Red China's intelligence service were working behind the scenes on joint nuclear weapons development.

The evidence suggests that "the China card" played a critical (secret) factor in Israel's participation in the JFK assassination conspiracy. This is documented in detail in Final Judgment.

I would be remiss in not addressing the question of CIA involvement alongside the Mossad in the JFK assassination.

By 1963 John F. Kennedy was not only at war with Israel and the Meyer Lansky Organized Crime Syndicate, but he was also at war with their close ally in the international intelligence underworld—the CIA.

Final Judgment shows that Israel's chief contact at the CIA, the Soviet-hating James Jesus Angleton, ultimately played a pivotal role in the JFK assassination conspiracy cover-up.

In light of the Angleton connection, I should note how the worldwide media has given great play to the release of a new book that purported to "prove" that it was the Soviet KGB that concocted the story that the CIA was behind the assassination of John F. Kennedy.

The book purported to be the inside history of the KGB's secret intelligence operations in the U.S. and Europe The Sword and the Shield by Professor Christopher Andrew of Cambridge—described as "one of the world's leading authorities on intelligence history,".

The book was said to be based on extensive notes and transcriptions (secretly compiled over a 12 year period) of vast numbers of files from the KGB archives. The notes themselves were supposedly smuggled out of KGB headquarters by former KGB archivist Vasili Mitrokhin who retired from the KGB in 1984 and who then defected to Britain in 1992 after the CIA had rejected Mitrokhin.

One major problem with the Andrew book is that while it is quite thoroughly footnoted, with hundreds of references to a wide-ranging amount of material, it is not always clear (actually, more often than not) whether Andrew is purporting to cite the Mitrokhin archives as his source or whether the information he is presenting is Andrew's own interpretation, based on the material of others.

In that sense, then, while the book is quite skilfully written in such a way that it appears to present the information presented as having come from the KGB's supposedly purloined file, that is not always necessarily the case.

It appears Andrew's book is presenting the Mitrokhin archives as some sort of effort to counter new official histories of the KGB that are being released by the KGB's post-Soviet era successor, the SVR.

For example, Andrew lashes out at Lolly Zamoysky, the SVR's literary editor of the new multi-volume official history, as having been "well known" in the KGB "for his belief in a global Masonic-Zionist plot."

Thus, Andrew's book is effectively an attempt to counter allegations of high-level Zionist intrigue that has been documented by the official post-KGB Russian intelligence services.

In that regard, it is quite remarkable to note that in the entirety of this extensively documented and indexed 700-page volume, there is only one indexed reference to Israel and not a single indexed reference to the Mossad, this despite the widely-known fact that the Mossad played a central role alongside the CIA in its operations in Western Europe throughout the period that Andrew has purported to describe.

Likewise, in the same vein, there are only two indexed references to the CIA's longtime counterintelligence chief, James Jesus Angleton, even though Angleton, who is best remembered for his strident anti-Soviet stance, having spent decades looking for a "KGB mole" in the upper echelons of the CIA and for KGB moles in allied Western intelligence agencies—was also a devoted Israeli loyalist who jealously guarded his role as the CIA's liaison to the Mossad.

Perhaps the most glaring evidence of outright fraud, per se, in the Andrew production is the flimsy and quite transparent attempt to absolve the CIA of any involvement in the assassination of John F. Kennedy and, at the same time, make it appear as though so-called "theories" linking the CIA to the crime were exclusively disinformation put forth by the KGB.

In fact, when the news of Andrew's book was first announced in the major media, most reports focused—sometimes exclusively—on the purported revelation that it was actually the KGB that was behind the theory that the CIA was involved in the president's murder. Most people who read news accounts of the release of the book would probably have gleaned little more than that.

Andrew's book claimed that KGB data purloined by Mitrokhin revealed that a letter—supposedly written prior to the assassination by JFK's accused assassin, Lee Harvey Oswald, and addressed to a "Mr. Hunt" (presumably the CIA's E. Howard Hunt)—was actually a KGB forgery. According to Andrew, the letter was fabricated in the mid-1970s after Hunt's name came to widespread public attention over his involvement in the Watergate scandal and then sent out to independent researchers who were looking into the JFK assassination.

As part of this effort to vindicate the CIA, hinging on the story of the purported KGB forgery, Andrew spends a great deal of energy spinning a literary web around the charge that pioneer JFK assassination investigator Mark Lane was either a witting or unwitting tool of the KGB in his writing of Rush to Judgment, Lane's ground-breaking critique of the Warren Commission Report on the assassination of President Kennedy.

Andrew connects Lane to the theory that "the CIA killed JFK" but fails to advise his readers that never once in Rush to Judgment did Lane ever allege that the CIA was involved in the president's assassination.

And Lane's book never once, in any way, shape or form, referred to the apparently forged "Dear Mr. Hunt" letter so widely heralded in the press coverage of Andrew's book..

While Lane's thesis about CIA involvement was outlined in his much later-written 1993 book, Plausible Denial, based in part on the information that came out during Lane's defense in 1985 of The Spotlight newspaper against a libel suit filed by E. Howard Hunt, the "Dear Mr. Hunt" letter played no part in the scenario outlined in Plausible Denial either.

In addition, in Plausible Denial, Lane develops solid evidence demonstrating that the CIA itself fabricated a scenario linking Oswald to a KGB officer in Mexico.

Since this CIA operation actually took place more than a month before President Kennedy was killed, this evidence—standing alone—demonstrates behind question that the CIA was involved not just in the post-assassination cover-up, but in the planning of the crime itself and in the framing of the patsy. Needless to say, Andrew addresses none of this.

In fact, the "Dear Mr. Hunt" letter was indeed most likely a forgery but the question remains as to "who" concocted the forgery, Christopher Andrew's claims notwithstanding.

Andrew, of course, contends that the KGB was responsible, but in Final Judgment I very clearly suggest that the letter was a forgery and that the evidence actually points to high-ranking CIA official James J. Angleton as having been the likely perpetrator.

All of this perhaps explains why Andrew is so determined to suppress the facts by targeting Mark Lane who singularly did so much to bring out the truth about the CIA's complicity.

Andrew actually makes the flat-out allegation that Lane received funding from the KGB at the time he was writing Rush to Judgment, thereby leaving readers to conclude that Lane's own work was essentially part of a KGB disinformation effort.

Yet, at the same time, buried in the massive footnote section of the book, Andrew himself acknowledges that when Lane supposedly received a paltry $1500 from the KGB's New York office that "there is no evidence that Lane did realize the source of the funding" although, in the text of the book itself, Andrew contends that the KGB "suspected that he might have guessed where it came from."

In fact, Lane never once received any substantial contribution of this size from anyone at any time in relation to his work on the JFK assassination.

In addition, Andrew claims that while in Europe Lane made an attempt to visit Moscow to discuss his JFK findings. Again, not true. During that trip Lane actually took an outspoken stand against Soviet censorship and human rights violations during a visit to Bulgaria, where he had been invited to speak at an international conference of attorneys. Lane so offended his hosts by his anti-Soviet remarks that they advised him that his best option was to get out of the country immediately—hardly advice reserved for someone favored by the KGB.

What is most telling about the obvious disinformation campaign against Lane by Andrew is the very fact that not a single one of Lane's books (on the JFK assassination or any other subject) was ever translated and published under Soviet sponsorship.

Yet Christopher Andrew has made patently false allegations about Lane's supposed "KGB connection." The allegations are a deliberate attempt to sully Lane's reputation and an attempt to refute evidence of CIA complicity in the assassination of President Kennedy.

As such, it is not unfair to note that Andrew's own teaching and lecturing has, in fact, been subsidized in part by the CIA, a fact that Andrew's biography on his book's dust jacket fails to note, but which is mentioned in glowing terms in promotional materials that have been distributed by his publisher. The motivations of Andrew (and his ties to the intelligence community) must certainly raise eyebrows considering just the items that we've considered here.

The CIA, of course, had its own problems with JFK. Just six weeks before John F. Kennedy was shot, a top administration official warned that a CIA-orchestrated coup in America was a fearful possibility. The CIA—like its allies in Israel—had good reason (in its own perception) to want to see JFK removed from the White House and replaced with Lyndon B. Johnson.

JFK's battle with the CIA over the Bay of Pigs debacle was just the beginning. JFK was—by the last days of his presidency—not only fighting the CIA's efforts to involve the United States ever more deeply in CIA but he was also moving toward dismantling the CIA entirely. The CIA's very existence was in danger.

This, of course, has brought focus to the CIA as a likely suspect in the JFK assassination and it was a course of investigation followed by New Orleans District Attorney Jim Garrison in the late 1960s, for which he received much abuse by the major media in America.

In fact, as I have pointed out earlier, Garrison had unwittingly stumbled on the Mossad connection while investigating CIA figures Clay Shaw, David Ferrie, Guy Banister and others whom Garrison had linked to the JFK assassination.

There are other often-mentioned CIA connections to the assassination that also point toward the Mossad although Final Judgment has been the only volume to explore those Mossad connections.

Note for example that a former mistress of Fidel Castro, CIA asset Marita Lorenz, testified that longtime CIA operative Frank Sturgis, famous as an anti-Castro activist, told her after the assssination that he had been involved in the JFK assassination.

Based on his own extensive study of the JFK assassination Cuba's former chief of counterintelligence, General Fabian Escalante Escalante, told journalist Claudia Furiati that Cuban intelligence had determined that, in fact, "Sturgis was in charge of communications—receiving and transmitting information on the movement at Dealey Plaza and the motorcade to the shooters and others."

If Sturgis was involved in the actual mechanics of the assassination, the historical evidence suggests that Sturgis could have been functioning as a knowing Mossad tool in the conspiracy.

The truth is that going back some fifteen years prior to the JFK assassination, Sturgis had worked for the Mossad.

Sturgis was a "Hagannah mercenary during the first (1948) Israeli-Arab war," and Sturgis also had a girlfriend in Europe in the 1950s who worked for Israeli intelligence and with whom he worked. Sturgis himself said that he assisted his girlfriend as a courier in Europe in a number of her endeavors on behalf of the Mossad.

It was also well known among anti-Castro Cuban exiles that Sturgis had also worked for the Mossad and had done so for a long period of time.

In addition, during the heyday of the CIA's anti-Castro operations in Miami in which Sturgis and E. Howard Hunt were key figures, some 12 to 16 Mossad agents worked out of Miami under the command of Mossad Deputy Director Yehuda S. Sipper, their influence reaching throughout Latin America and the Caribbean.

Citing a 1976 CIA memo, Professor John Newman who has investigated CIA knowledge of Lee Harvey Oswald's activities, says that Sturgis founded the International Anti-Communist Brigade and that "the backers of Sturgis' group have never been fully established."

Information outlined by a number of sources suggests that Sturgis' group could have been an off-shoot of the Mossad's Miami-based operations, intertwined with Sturgis' own CIA-sponsored intrigue in the same sphere of influence.

In fact, a unit of Sturgis' Brigade was CIA contract agent Gerry Patrick Hemming's so-called "Interpen" that operated outside New Orleans and Sturgis was connected with those Interpen operations.

Those activities around New Orleans are known to have involved two of the key players surrounding Lee Harvey Oswald prior to the JFK assassination: CIA contract agents Guy Banister and David Ferrie.

In fact, there is an Israeli connection to Interpen. According to Hemming himself, Interpen's "most important contact in the United States" was New York financier, Theodore Racoosin, whom Hemming described as "one of the key founders of the state of Israel."

After having read Final Judgment, Hemming frankly told the author that although he personally has seen no evidence that convinces him the Mossad participated directly in the JFK assassination, he did say that "I have known since the late 1960s that the Mossad was aware of the JFK murder even before it happened, and they later did a full investigation on the matter and have since retained all such files." Emphasis added.

In any case, we not only find CIA asset Clay Shaw of New Orleans tied to the Mossad through his association with the Permindex operation (as were Banister and Ferrie), but we also find two other CIA-connected players in the anti-Castro operations out of New Orleans (Sturgis and Hemming) were in the Mossad's sphere of influence. And Lee Harvey Oswald is tied to all of the key players involved.

In any event, there is no question that, based on the facts about Sturgis that we now do know that at least one person who has reportedly confessed to actual involvement in the JFK assassination—Frank Sturgis—did have multiple longtime links to the Mossad for many years prior to (and after) the time of the JFK assassination.

The influence of Israel and its lobby over the American media would have made it difficult for anyone who even suspected that Israel had a hand in the JFK assassination to get the word out. The media promoted the conclusions of the Warren Commission and savaged its critics. And when the media did place the blame it was on Fidel Castro and then, later, on "the Mafia."

In addition, the CIA played a major part in shaping media coverage of the JFK assassination—not to mention other major events of recent history.

Through a project initiated on April 1, 1967, the Central Intelligence Agency directed its "propaganda assets" in the field to take actions to discredit critics of the Warren Commission Report on the Kennedy assassination through books reviews and feature articles, not only attacking their conclusions but suggesting that they were subversively motivated.

What about the Warren Commission that investigated—most would say "covered up" the truth about the assassination?

Please note of the 22 Warren Commission staff attorneys, fully nine of them were Jewish. Another was married to a Jewish woman. Additionally, several others had known, intimate connections to the Israeli lobby in America.

One of the commission's most active members—Rep. Gerald R. Ford (R-Mich.)—was the protege of Max Fisher, a millionaire businessman with close ties to both the Mossad and the Lansky Crime Syndicate. Another, John McCloy, was connected to the Bronfman family, sponsors of the aforementioned Permindex entity, and to the international Jewish Warburg banking empire.

Of course, The Washington Post, The New York Times, and a host of other "responsible" newspapers have NOT reviewed Final Judgment, although I have sent them copies.

Yet, in this regard I cannot help but note that when on November 22, 1964 The Washington Post drafted someone to write what turned out to be a favorable review of The Warren Commission Report, accompanied by negative reviews of several books critical of the report, the Post chose Eugene Rostow, then dean of the Yale Law School. Here's what the prestigious Dean Rostow wrote of the Warren Report: Bear with me. This is "too much": Rostow wrote:

The Report is a masterly and convincing state paper. It has the high polish of legal writing at its best, carefully composed, terse, restrained and meticulous. It has a detached and judicious tone . . .

But here's the catch . . .

What neither The Washington Post nor Rostow revealed was that it was Rostow himself who was the first person to suggest to President Johnson that such a commission as the Warren Commission be established!

And by the way, just for the record, if the Mossad did have a hand in the JFK assassination, you can be certain Rostow would have never written about it. Here's why:

Rostow has been a board member of the Jewish Institute for National Security Affairs, which has been described as being "run by individuals closely identified with Israeli interests and may be regarded as a virtual lobbying organization for the state of Israel."

Of course, the murder in 1968 of Sen. Robert F. Kennedy, younger brother of the slain president, was vital to the continuing cover-up of the truth about the JFK assassination.

If RFK had made it to the White House he would finally have had the power to bring his brother's killers to justice.

The slaying of Robert F. Kennedy links not only Israel and its allies in the CIA but also SAVAK, the secret police of the Shah of Iran. SAVAK was a joint creation of the CIA and the Mossad, along with British intelligence, and cooperated closely with those agencies on many fronts—including the RFK assassination. This is explored in the pages of Final Judgment.

The connection between the Kennedy assassination and the Watergate affair that toppled Richard Nixon has been the basis for an incredible amount of misinformation and disinformation since the fall of President Nixon in 1974.

There is indeed a Watergate Connection to the JFK assassination but it's one that even the most intrepid JFK assassination researchers have somehow seemed to miss.

The true Dallas-Watergate Connection is the long-hidden role of Israel's CIA man, James Jesus Angleton—the prime CIA mover not only behind the JFK assassination but also the forced resignation of Richard M. Nixon. This is also explored in Final Judgment.

I was frankly astounded myself at the amount of material that emerged which did support my thesis. At the same time, though, there is absolutely no "evidence" of any kind to REFUTE my thesis. Only opinion, as in, "Oh, Israel would never do anything like that!"

Although I did keep thinking until almost the very end of the writing process that I would perhaps find some fact that would contradict my thesis, I never found any such information.

Instead, in the ten years that have passed since I was working on the first draft of the book, I have found a wealth of new information that solidifies and expands upon what had already been published.

The very strength of my book, according to many readers who are familiar with other data on the JFK assassination, is that it shows how all of the more familiar theories about the assassination are connected—and that connection is indeed the Israeli connection.

To this day, eight years after the release of the book:

• No one has been able to rebut the thesis, misquoted any of my sources or quoted any of my sources out of context.

• No one has been able to demonstrate where any of the key points in my thesis are refuted by other information.

• No one has has cited any specific errors (relevant to the thesis) that would contradict my thesis.

In the book I have pointed out the minor errors that have appeared in previous editions and challenged my readers: "Show Me Where I'm Wrong." But none have done so.

Considering the energetic and very public efforts of theJewish ADL to defame this book, one would think that the ADL would assemble a crack team of researchers to tear the book apart. And bear in mind that if the book were that insignificant, the ADL would not pay Final Judgment the attention that they do.

But the ADL refuses to debate me. People should ask "why?"

TO CONCLUDE:

A reader of Final Judgment met famed CBS Newsman Mr. Cronkite at Martha's Vineyard. He apprised Cronkite of the theory put forth in Final Judgment, and Cronkite listened carefully.

Looking out to sea, Cronkite remarked quite succinctly: "I can't think of any group—with the exception of Israeli intelligence—that would have been able to keep the JFK assassination conspiracy under wraps for so long."

This is our final judgment: Israel's Mossad was a primary (and critical) behind the scenes player in the conspiracy that ended the life of John F. Kennedy. Through its own vast resources and through its international contacts in the intelligence community and in organized crime, Israel had the means, it had the opportunity, and it had the motive to play a major frontline role in the crime of the century—and it did.

The evidence demonstrates that there is a very strong foundation for my thesis.

It is a scenario that does make sense, much to the dismay of my critics.

I believe this scenario comes closer than anything yet written in summarizing the entirety of the JFK assassination conspiracy.

Final Judgment takes a new look at a very big jigsaw puzzle that displays a remarkably complex and somewhat murky picture.

On the immensely confusing picture on the front of the puzzle are all of the various groups and individuals implicated in the JFK assassination conspiracy.

However, when you turn the puzzle over, you find one complete picture—and that's a big and very clear picture of the Israeli flag.

All the other flags on the front of the puzzle are, in intelligence jargon, "false flags," and Final Judgment proves just that.

Final Judgment encapsulates a thesis that they can't discredit. The genie is out of the bottle and neither Final Judgment nor its thesis are about to go away.

The above is the prepared text of a presentation by Michael Collins Piper discussing his 760-page book, Final Judgment: The Missing Link in the JFK Assassination Conspiracy, which charges that Israel's intelligence agency, the Mossad, collaborated alongside the CIA in the assassination of U.S. President John F. Kennedy.

James Jesus Angleton: The Kremlin's Favorite Spook

By Yuri Shvets
Former Major in the KGB who was in the same KGB class as Russian President Vladimir Putin. Shvets is the author of "Washington Station: My Life as a KGB Spy in America.

It was a cold winter day in 1981. I was a KGB rookie, sitting with my colleagues, future Soviet intelligence officers, in a lecture hall at the Yuri Andopov Institute--simply put, a spy school. The lecturer, a gray-haired KGB colonel, was telling us about the CIA and its chief of counterintelligence, James Jesus Angleton.

"He was our best asset," said the colonel.

We were stunned. The famous CIA mole-hunter was a KGB asset? Were we the best in the business or what?

"Take it easy, guys," smiled the colonel. Angleton wasn't really our agent. He was, the colonel explained, "our useful idiot." But given his position and his obsessive hunt for moles in the CIA, he was more valuable to us than a whole army of real agents.

The theory goes all the way back to V.I. Lenin. The founder of the Soviet Union believed that his enemies would always have in their midst certain high-ranking people fighting so hard to defeat Communism that they'd do more harm than good to their own cause. Lenin considered such individuals a vital part of the Communist "fifth column." The KGB liked that idea, since it cost nothing and sometimes paid huge dividends.

Angleton unwittingly provided the KGB with something it couldn't have possibly gotten through its own efforts. He demoralized the CIA beyond the wildest dreams of the party bosses back in Moscow. Best of all, from the KGB's point of view, was the fact that Angleton's mole-hunting discredited CIA counterintelligence efforts for years to come. The result was an atmosphere in which real Kremlin moles, like Aldrich Ames, could flourish.

The KGB never trusted anybody. A great deal of time and money was spent checking operatives for the slightest hint of treason. But nothing the KGB did minimized the temptation to defect to "the main adversary," as the CIA was called. Here again, it was Angleton to the rescue.

Always on the lookout for KGB dirty tricks, Angleton jailed Yuri Nosenko, a famous KGB defector in the early 1960s. Nosenko was more than willing to cooperate with the CIA, but Angleton put him through the wringer. Of course, KGB leadership was jubilant. Not about Nosenko's departure, but about the mortal blow his treatment dealt to the CIA.

Although the number-one job for any intelligence service is to recruit human assets, it would be hard to find a handful of KGB case officers who actually recruited American citizens as spies. I believe the same is true of CIA recruitment efforts in the Soviet Union. In reality, intelligence services depend on volunteers--people who make the decision, for whatever reason, to work for a foreign spy agency, contact it, and offer their services.

But before any such move, a volunteer should be absolutely sure his future masters can handle him safely for the rest of his life. If that's not the case, there's a good chance he might be caught and executed, which is the Soviet solution, or spend the rest of his life in jail, American-style.

By putting Nosenko behind bars, Angleton sent a crystal-clear message to other potential volunteers inside the KGB: The CIA cannot handle you safely, so you'd better give your loyalty to the USSR. One can only guess how many possible defectors were lost to the CIA due to Angleton's methods.

Nosenko was tortured and imprisoned because Angleton didn't believe he was the genuine article. But his treatment revealed to Moscow the CIA's most guarded secret: Langley had no real source of information in the KGB. No moles in Moscow meant the CIA was driving blind, and every top official in Soviet intelligence knew it. Even Ames could not have provided my former Soviet colleagues with such valuable information. Ames only gave his handlers names--useful for eliminating double agents but useless in any strategic sense.

After his lecture on the CIA, the KGB colonel told our group of spies-in-training that none of us would be able to provide better service than Angleton. In fact, "only one man can do a better job," he said, "and that's another Angleton."

We thought the colonel was kidding. We were young and inexperienced at that time. But I recalled his words years later, when Ames was caught.

In a flurry of media reports on Ames's case, one interesting episode was largely overlooked. Ames had been exposed before he could complete his most important mission. Close to the end of his spy career, when his loyalty to the KGB was checked, rechecked and confirmed many times, Ames received his ultimate assignment: to gather and transmit to Moscow all information pertaining to Angleton. The KGB wanted to know the most minute details of Angleton's career and his rise to power.

The mastermind of the Ames case in Moscow was none other than the gray-haired colonel who lectured me in 1981. In the final days of the Soviet Union, the KGB was looking for ways to raise Angleton from the dead, or at least to forecast the possibility of another individual like him rising to the top of the CIA.

Fortunately, the Soviet effort failed because the CIA had its own useful idiot in Moscow, Vladimir Kryuchkov, who headed the KGB intelligence service for 14 years and after that the KGB itself. Kryuchkov, you may recall, was a leader in the 1991 Kremlin coup plot. Like Angleton, he saw himself as a patriot, rooting out CIA double agents, and his activity, like Angleton's, did more harm than good.

Langley probably had a better chance of creating another Kryuchkov than Moscow had of making another Angleton. But with Kryuchkov in charge, the CIA could hardly have had a better man at the helm. In the space of three days, Kryuchkov not only destroyed the KGB but the entire Soviet Union. My ex-comrades in Moscow were always calling Kryuchkov "the CIA Man of the Century." As things turned out, it was a title he richly deserved.

More from the Jew Jay Edward Epstein:
------------

Was Angleton Right?

WALL STREET JOURNAL
December 30, 2004

by Edward Jay Epstein
Recently a number of former CIA officers received an invitation from the Spy Museum in Washington to attend a luncheon for former KGB Col. Victor Cherkashin. The event, as the invitation said, would afford "a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to dine and dish with an extraordinary spymaster." In the heyday of the Cold War, such an offer, delivered with slightly more discretion, might have been the prelude to a KGB recruitment operation. Now it's merely the notice for a book party celebrating yet another memoir by a former KGB officer recounting how the KGB duped the CIA.
In this case, there is a great deal to tell. Victor Cherkashin served in the KGB from 1952, when Stalin was still in power, until the Soviet Union disintegrated in 1991. During most of that time his mission was to organize KGB operations aimed at undermining the integrity, confidence and morale of the CIA. He seems to have been good at his job. His big opportunity came when he was the deputy KGB chief at the Soviet Embassy in Washington between 1979 and 1985.


Those years were the height of a ferocious spy war within the Cold War. In "Spy Handler" Mr. Cherkashin describes in detail how he helped convert two American counterintelligence officers -- one well-placed in the CIA's Soviet Russia Division, the other in the FBI -- into moles. Their names are notorious now, but over the course of a decade Aldrich Ames and Robert Hanssen operated with anonymous stealth, compromising most of the CIA's and FBI's espionage efforts in the Soviet Union.

But that wasn't the end of Mr. Cherkashin's glory. Returning to Moscow, he helped run "dangle" operations in which KGB-controlled diplomats feigned a willingness to be recruited by their American counterparts, only to hand over disinformation when they were finally "recruited." Thus when the CIA came around to investigating why its agents were being compromised in Russia, the KGB sent the CIA a disinformation agent, for example, to paint false tracks away from its moles. This agent -- "Mr. X" -- offered to betray the Soviet Union for $5,000. When the CIA snapped up the bait, Mr. X pointed it to its own secret communication center in Warrenton, Va., falsely claiming that the KGB was electronically intercepting data from its computers. The purpose, of course, was to divert the agency away from the mole, who continued betraying CIA secrets for eight more years.


Told from the KGB's vantage point, Mr. Cherkashin's story provides a gripping account of its successes in the spy war. He shows Mr. Hanssen to have been an easily managed and highly productive "penetration" who operated via the unusual tradecraft of dead drops, leaving material at designated locations where it could be transferred without spy and handler ever meeting. (Indeed, the KGB never knew Mr. Hanssen's identity.) Mr. Ames, for his part, was a more complex case, since he had come under suspicion and the KGB had to concern itself with throwing the CIA off his trail. That America's counterespionage apparatus allowed both men to operate as long as they did is a testament to its complacency as much as to the KGB's cleverness.
And indeed, Mr. Cherkashin skillfully torments his former adversary, the CIA, by attributing a large part of the KGB's success to the incompetence of the CIA leadership, or its madness. He asserts, in particular, that the CIA had been "all but paralyzed" by the "paranoia" of James Jesus Angleton, the CIA's longtime counterintelligence chief, who suspected that the KGB had planted a mole in the CIA's Soviet Russia division.


Mr. Cherkashin is right that Mr. Angleton's concern retarded, if not "paralyzed," CIA operations in Russia. After all, if the CIA was indeed vulnerable to KGB penetration, as Mr. Angleton believed, it had to assume that its agents in Russia would be compromised and used for disinformation. This suspicion would recommend a certain caution or tentativeness, to say the least. Mr. Cherkashin's taunt about Mr. Angleton's "paranoia" echoed what was said by Mr. Angleton's critics in the CIA, who resented his influence, believing that polygraph tests and other security measures immunized the CIA against such long-term penetration.


But of course Mr. Angleton was right, too. On Feb. 21, 1994, Mr. Ames, the CIA officer who had served in the Soviet Russia division, was arrested by the FBI. He confessed that he had been a KGB mole for almost a decade and had provided the KGB with secrets that compromised more than 100 CIA operations in Russia. Mr. Hanssen was caught seven years later.


Since Mr. Cherkashin had managed the recruitment of Mr. Ames and helped with that of Mr. Hanssen, his accusation that Mr. Angleton was paranoid for suspecting the possibility of a mole has the exquisite irony of a stalker following his victim in order to tell him that he is not being followed. Mr. Cherkashin adds a further twist by suggesting that Mr. Angleton's "paranoia" made it easier for the KGB to recruit demoralized CIA officers as moles. According to this tortured logic, if the CIA -- and its counterintelligence staff -- had acted more ostrich-like, by denying the existence of moles in its ranks, the KGB would never have found Aldrich Ames or penetrated the agency in other ways.

Mr. Cherkashin, who received the Order of Lenin for his work against the CIA, now runs a security company in Moscow. Because his side lost the Cold War, he is free to travel to Washington to toast his former adversaries (and present them with autographed copies of "Spy Handler"). The unauthorized revealing of KGB secrets is against the law in Vladimir Putin's Russia, and Mr. Cherkashin says that he does not plan to bring out an edition there. But why not? It's hard to imagine that the authorities would find much to object to.
Mr. Epstein's "The Big Picture: The New Logic of Money and Power in Hollywood" will be published in February.

An old story on R. Maxwell, Kyruchov and the Mossad. The Robert Maxwells, Ledeens, Jewish Mafia figures, and Marc Richs were the Israeli-Intelligence friendly middle men that could arrange important deals or set the stage for assassinations, coverups, drug runs or takovers.  They are the Jew players on all sides. Angleton used these types and then used the "paranoia" factor to distract focus on the collective service of the US/UK/Soviet Union's service to the ultimate middle men - the Jewish state of Israel.

British Publisher Robert Maxwell
Was Mossad Spy New Claim
On Tycoon's Mystery Death
By Gordon Thomas And Martin Dillon
The Mirror - UK
12-6-2


Eleven years after former Daily Mirror owner Robert Maxwell plunged from his luxury yacht to a watery grave, his death still arouses intense interest.
 
Many different theories have circulated about what really happened on board the Lady Ghislaine that night in May 1991. Some believe the
 
67-year-old tycoon simply slipped into the sea, perhaps after a few drinks.
 
Others think Maxwell took his own life amid increasing troubles in his business empire - after his death investigators discovered he had been secretly diverting millions of pounds from two of his companies and from employee pension funds in an effort to keep solvent.
 
But now, after two and a half years of investigative journalism, we believe we have unearthed the true story of Maxwell's death and can reveal how he was murdered by the Israeli secret service, Mossad.
 
Our work, supported by documents, including FBI reports and secret intelligence files from behind the Iron Curtain, shows Maxwell had
 
worked as a secret super spy for Mossad for six years.
 
The Jewish millionaire and former Labour MP [born Ludvik Hoch
 
in Czechoslovakia] died the way he had lived - threatening.
 
He had threatened his wife. Threatened his children. Threatened the staff of this newspaper.
 
But finally he issued one threat too many - he threatened Mossad.
 
He told them that unless they gave him £400million to save his crumbling empire, he would expose all he had done for them.
 
In that time, he had free access to Margaret Thatcher's Downing Street, to Ronald Reagan's White House, to the Kremlin and to the corridors of power throughout Europe.
 
On top of that he had built himself a position of power within the crime families of eastern Europe, teaching them how to funnel their vast wealth from drugs, arms smuggling and prostitution to banks in safe havens around the globe.
 
Maxwell passed on all the secrets he learned to Mossad in Tel Aviv. In turn, they tolerated his excesses, vanities and insatiable appetite for a luxurious lifestyle and women.
 
He told his controllers who they should target and how they should do it. He appointed himself as Israel's unofficial ambassador to the Soviet Bloc. Mossad saw the advantage in that.
 
Having learned many of the key secrets of the Soviet empire, Maxwell was given his greatest chance to be a super spy.
 
Mossad had stolen from America the most important piece of software in the US arsenal. Maxwell was given the job of marketing the stolen software, called Promis.
 
Mossad had reconstructed the software and inserted into it a device which enabled them to track the use any purchaser made of the it. Sitting in Israel, Mossad would know exactly what was going on inside all the intelligence services that bought it. In all, Maxwell sold it to 42 countries, including China and Soviet Bloc nations. But his greatest triumph was selling it to Los Alamos, the very heart of the US nuclear defence system.
 
The more successful Maxwell became the more risks he took and the more dangerous he was to Mossad. At the same time, the very public side of Maxwell, who then owned 400 companies, began to unwind.
 
He spent lavishly and lost money on deals. The more he lost, the more he tried to claw money from the banks. Then he saw a way out of his problems.
 
He was approached by Vladimir Kryuchkov, head of the KGB. Spymaster and tycoon met in the utmost secrecy in the Kremlin.
 
Kryuchkov had an extraordinary proposal. He wanted Maxwell to help orchestrate the overthrow of Mikhail Gorbachev, the reformist Soviet leader. That would bring to an end a fledgling democracy and a return to the Cold War days.
 
In return, Maxwell's massive debts would be wiped out by a grateful Kryuchkov, who planned to replace Gorbachev. The KGB chief wanted Maxwell to use the Lady Ghislaine, named after Maxwell's daughter, as a meeting place between the Russian plotters, Mossad chiefs and Israel's top politicians.
 
The plan was for the Israelis to go to Washington and say that democracy could not work in Russia and that it was better to allow the country to return to a modified form of communism, which America could help to control. In return, Kryuchkov would guarantee to free hundreds of thousands of Jews and dissidents in the Soviet republics.
 
Kryuchkov told Maxwell that he would be seen as a saviour of all those Jews. It was a proposal he could not refuse. But when he put it to his Mossad controllers they were horrified. They said Israel would have no part in such a madcap plan.
 
For the first time, Maxwell had failed to get his own way. He started to threaten and bluster. He then demanded that, for past services, he should receive immediately a quick fix of £400million to bale him out of his financial difficulties.
 
Instead of providing the money, a small group of Mossad officers set about planning his murder. They feared that he was going to publicly expose all Mossad had done in the time he worked for them. They knew that he was gradually becoming mentally unstable and paranoid. He was taking a cocktail of drugs - Halcion and Zanax - which had serious side effects.
 
The group of Mossad plotters sensed, like Solomon, he could bring their temple tumbling down and cause incalculable harm to Israel. The plan to kill him was prepared in the utmost secrecy. A four-man squad was briefed.
 
Then Maxwell was contacted. He was told to fly to Gibraltar, go aboard the Lady Ghislaine and sail to the Canary Islands. There at sea he would receive his £400million quick fix in the form of a banker's draft. Maxwell did as he was told.
 
On the night of November 4, 1991, the Lady Ghislaine, one of the world's biggest yachts, was at sea. Unknown to its crew, the death squad had cast an electronic net over the yacht to block all radio transmissions. The security cameras on board had been switched off.
 
After midnight there were only two men on the bridge. One hundred and twenty feet behind them, Maxwell appeared on deck.
 
He had been instructed to do so in a previous message from Mossad.
 
A small boat came alongside. On board were four black-suited men. Three scrambled on to the yacht. In a second it was all over.
 
Two held Maxwell. The third plunged a syringe into his neck behind his ear. A measured dose of nerve agent was injected. Robert Maxwell was immobilised. He was lowered off the deck into the water.
 
As Victor Ostrovsky, a former Mossad agent told us: "On that cold night Mossad's problems with Robert Maxwell were over."
 
The incontrovertible facts about his murder are contained in a previously-unseen autopsy report by Britain's then-leading forensic pathologist Dr Iain West and Israel State Pathologist Dr Yehuda Hiss. Of all the documents in our possession, these reports confirm the truth about Maxwell's death.

----
Robert Maxwell, Israel's Superspy: The Life and Murder of a Media Mogul"

 (2002; Carroll & Graf Publishers; ISBN 0-78677-1078-0)
by Gordon Thomas and Martin Dillon. (p.172)
On the Jewish New Year, Rosh Hashanah, Admoni had gathered his staff in the Mossad canteen
and said: 'I wish us all a year without mistakes. We need to all keep our eye on the ball.'

It was an injunction in the case of robert Maxwell that
Nahum Admoni should himself have heeded. The
criminals Maxwell was becoming involved with would
not only lead him into dangerous and uncharted waters,
but would eventually pose a threat to Israel and seal
Admoni's own fate. He would become the Mossad
director who did not hear the alarm bells ringing.

The danger surfaced in Moscow over another of
those dinners Kryuchkov gave Maxwell in the Lubyanka
late in 1988. Even more fearful at the pace at which
perestroika was accelerating, Kruychkov said that for
the KGB to remain a potent force he wanted to establish
'over six hundred commercial enterprises'. They would
all have links to the West. Just as Maxwell's companies
provided cover for Mossad's katsas, Kryuchkov
envisaged his companies would provide similar
protection for KGB operatives. The Russian companies
would operate on sound business principles, just like
any other corporation in the West. The profits from the
Russian concerns would go to the KGB and help fund
its foreign intelligence operations. Maxwell was assured
none of these would be against the State of Israel.

Kryuchkov had explained that behind his immediate
plan was a long-term one. The six hundred companies
would each employ a quota of senior party members
to provide them with an income during the difficult days
ahead in the transition from Communism to capitalism.
Through genuine trading links, the companies would
obtain access to the very heart of capitalism: Wall Street
and the City of London and the Bourses of Western Europe.
Its staffs would then learn the innermost secrets of the
West's banking system, the wellspring of all capitalism.
Eventually it might even be possible to destabilise
Western economies - and pave the way for the return
of Communism.

It was madcap scheming that Stalin would have been
proud of.

But there was more.

Before that meeting Maxwell met a man in the plan
Kryuchkov had created. His name was Simeon
Mogilevich. He was a Ukrainian-born Jew and head of
the Rising Sun [aka Solntsevo], one of Moscow's major
criminal families. And soon, thanks to Maxwell, he would
be able to travel on an Israeli passport.

Money laundering, weapons, contract hits and drug
trafficking were the staples of Mogilevich's work.

At their first meeting, again in Moscow, Mogilevich told
Maxwell he would be able to get Jews out of the Soviet
Union and had done so on many occasions. The truth
was that Mogilevich had repeatedly robbed Soviet
Jews of their last valuables in return for his promise to
smuggle them to Israel.

By the time he met Maxwell, Mogilevich had established
some fifty legitimate companies in Israel, Britain, the
United States, Austria and Germany. Through them
he laundered his criminal profits. These would grow to
some $40 billion a year after he met Maxwell.

A phone call to Tel Aviv, and Mogilevich had his
passport. Now he could go anywhere - and he did:
to Liechtenstein to set up a new money-laundering
operation; to Gibraltar, to Cyprus, the Channel Islands
and the Cayman Islands. In all these places money
and a no-questions policy were opposite sides of the
same coin, and Simeon Mogilevich, thanks to robert
Maxwell, availed himself of new opportunities.

The second man to cross Maxwell's path, this time
through an introduction by his old friend Andrei Lukanov,
was Ivo Janchev.

An officer in the Bulgarian secret service, he had
ambitions to be rich whatever it took. Using his
contacts in Moscow and Budapest, he would be the
link to organised crime figures like Mogilevich. He
would also be the front man to make contact with
several Russians with businesses in the West.

Within a few months of meeting Mogilevich and
Janchev, Robert Maxwell had gone into partnership
with them. He had now become a serious player in
the world of organised crime.

Even by Maxwell's standards of being willing to
enter into any arrangement that would ultimately
profit him, his decision to partner these two men
was extraordinary.

Maxwell was a corporate raider, a man who would
breeze into a boardroom and say he had come to
buy the company. His new partners' usual technique
was to storm into a company with their private
armies of former Soviet Spetznaz (special forces),
and threaten to take apart the building unless the
offer they made was accepted.

While Maxwell had a bevy of fawning secretaries to
slip him his deodorant or mop his brow, his partners
did not bother with such feminine niceties. They
depended on their armed bodyguards to make sure
no one passed comment on their body odour. At
play they could be rough, publicly manhandling their
women, stomping their way into a night spot and
terrorising the other clients.

Their business was prostitution, drug running, traffic
in humans. When MI5 discovered how Mogilevich
earned his money, they informed the Home Office
which expelled him from Britain and publicly branded
him as 'one of the most dangerous criminals in the
world'. It is hard to believe that Robert Maxwell did
not know that. Yet he continued to be drawn ever
deeper into the dark and evil empire Mogilevich
operated. A number of people who had crossed his
path had been disposed of into the Moscow River or
in one of the city's back streets. He had his own team
of killers never further away than a phone call.

These two were the men Maxwell had chosen as
his partners. The question that would be asked was:
why? Why did a tycoon still listed among the top ten
publishers in the world, among men like Murdoch,
not only rub shoulders with, but treat as equals,
Lukanov, Janchev and Mogilevich?

Maxwell's enjoyment came from being seen in public
with kings and queens, with Prince Charles and
Princess Diana, with Hollywood stars. Through them
he could continue to fill not only the pages of his own
newspapers, but those of his rivals. But with his three
new partners he dared not even be photographed by
a hostess in a Sofia nightclub. He could meet his
partners only in the shadows, in one of their fortified
palaces where even he had to undergo a body scan
before gaining access.

He could never invite them, even in the dead of night,
to visit him. He could never take them for a cruise on
the Lady Ghislaine. He could do almost nothing that
he normally liked to do to show his power. He was
just their business partner. No more. No less.

He knew their business was corruption and
pornography of every kind: fortunes were made from
prostitution and drug trafficking, from trading in men,
women and children for the sex industry, from the
mass marketing of obscene films, from contract
killings, blackmail, extortion.

What was Robert Maxwell doing in their world?
The answer would come within a few months of their
alliance. Maxwell, who was not averse to hiding behind
other respectable figures - the Rothschilds, the Lehman
Brothers and that epitome of respectability, the governor
of the Bank of England, Robin Leigh-Pemberton - would
now find himself fronting for three of the world's most
powerful godfathers. There is only one reason why he
would do so, feel he must do so: the attraction of making
still more money to satisfy his insatiable desire to be the
richest man in the world. The obsession may have gone
all the way back to that time when he walked barefoot
in the summer, shared his shoes with his siblings in the
winter, when he slept under a quilt smelling of sour straw
and when his mother had told him that to be an Englishman
was to be different. He had become an Englishman of sorts.
He was certainly different - if that meant being wealthy. But
he had not yet enough money. Lukanov, Mogilevich and
Janchev had offered him a means to come that much
closer to getting what he wanted.

Through his own connections to international finance,
where his very name could still open doors to the
bankers at Goldman Sachs and the House of Morgan,
he had paved the way for the godfathers to enter with
him. Israel's superspy had now become an associate of
criminals. Fraud by now was nothing new to Maxwell.
But to be a partner with criminals on every watch list of
police and intelligence services was something new.

It marked his fall, rise and fall again: he had fallen
after the damning report by the British government's
inspectors that he was not fit to be a director of any
company; he had risen again to own the Daily Mirror.
But now he had embarked on a journey that could only
lead to another fall.

Nevertheless, he must have believed he could still
count on the protection of Mossad. He could only have
believed that because he knew so much of their own
dark secrets that, if his own criminal connections had
surfaced, he could depend on Mossad to help him.

In New York, the FBI chief, John P O'Neill, later
identified the global threat posed by organised crime
and its links to Maxwell:

'Some of Maxwell's associates were involved in
narcotics, illegal weapons and contract killings, of
which there may be as many as five hundred a year.
They were also into smuggling precious metals and
counterfeiting. They had links with the Russian
military. Any Russian banker that didn't do their
bidding knew what to expect. He got a grenade tossed
into his car. A hit like that could be arranged for as
little as two hundred bucks. People who tried to cross
them had nowhere to run. They could hunt you down
anywhere.

'These people had sophisticated operations for
washing money in London and New York. It came
from drugs, financial fraud -just one step beyond
what Maxwell was doing - prostitution and extortion.

'Their operations looked something like this. In
Britain it was money laundering. Same in Switzerland.
Italy was drugs and traffic in people -mostly women
for prostitution. In Belgium and Germany, it was stolen
cars and more laundering of profits. Albania and
Poland was fraud, arms and drugs. Maxwell showed
how an intricate, complex web of shell companies
under a group umbrella could move money around
the globe. When New York became a target for
Eastern Bloc criminal syndicates and we looked at
how it operated, the Maxwell model was there for
all to see.'

(p.180)
[ . . . ]
At a meeting with Lukanov, Maxwell said he wanted
a new stake in BZK and for his Bishopsgate Investment
Trust to handle a substantial portion of Bulgaria's
current $10 billion foreign debt.

He also wanted something else: the pick of Todor
Zhivkov's palaces and villas, now all about to come
on the market. They were being offered at bargain-
basement prices. Maxwell would buy the choicest
for himself and acquire the others either for resale
or high rentals to the foreign investors he would
bring into Bulgaria.

Accompanied by Nick Davies and his photographer,
he travelled to Perla on the Black Sea. It was famous
for two reasons. It produced the best rikea drink in
all Bulgaria and was the site of the former president's
most luxurious holiday palace. It had its own harbour
and a cinema.

When Maxwell returned to Sofia, Doinov was
anxiously waiting.

'I told him I had decided I was at risk - that I knew
too much. Mr Maxwell told me to leave Bulgaria
right away without telling anyone and promised to
install me in Vienna as his consultant,' said Doinov.

Maxwell also promised Doinov a large salary and
an ongoing secret role in laundering money from
Bulgaria.

Lukanov, when he later faced scrutiny for his links
to Maxwell, turned the tables on Doinov with a letter
he published, within which he cited Doinov.

A Bulgarian federal prosecutor would later threaten,
'I will personally go to Vienna and bring Doinov back
to Sofia in a bag if I have to.'

With no extradition treaty, that had proved impossible.

Another man who crossed Maxwell's path was Michael
Chorney [Mikhail Chorny], a Russian Jew with an Israeli
passport. Young and flashy, he impressed Maxwell as
someone who would go a long way. Chorney had his own
eye on setting up banks, hi-tech businesses and buying
a football team in Bulgaria. In time he would learn a lot
from Maxwell's flamboyant style and hard-nosed strategy.
He would also subsequently become a controversial
figure.

With Doinov in Vienna and Andrei Lukanov running
the country, Maxwell had achieved his goal of making
Bulgaria his own.

But events at home, in Russia and in Israel were about
to threaten all that.

The Secret War Against the Jews
 By John Loftus, Mark Aarons
(These guys are apologist Zionists)
-----------------
See Chapter 9: Robert Maxwell's Czech Guns

Maxwell was a Czech Crypto Jew named Lev Hoch that supplied Czech weapons to Israel in 1947. Certainly he knew the US Gangsters like Meyer Lansky.
He was also a double agent for Israel as a British Spy.  Same story as Angleton. An insider intelligence officer that used Israeli intelligence and Jew gangsters to do dirty work while controlling reports and outcomes.  Robert Maxwell was always a traitor to Britian. He was an Israeli Firster as refugee that stole Nazi scientific documents in post WWII Germany.

"In Memory of Jim Angleton

a man of vision and courage, a man of vision and a comrade-in-arms,  who recognized the dangers of the Soviets new Challenge."

Looks like Angleton saw the Goyim where rebelling against the obvious Jew Lies known as Communism and he warned his Jewish henchmen in Russia about it.... Gorbachev and Boris Yeltsin were likely hand picked by Global Jewry to set the conditions for the total Jew fleecing of Russia after the fall of the Wall in 1989. It was likely orchestrated at the highest levels.

UPDATE 1-Watergate 'Deep Throat' Mark Felt dies at 95

(Recasts with details, background)

WASHINGTON, Dec 19 (Reuters) - Mark Felt, the mysterious "Deep Throat" source who helped Washington Post reporters Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein crack the Watergate scandal that brought down President Richard Nixon, has died at age 95.

Felt suffered from congestive heart failure but the exact cause of his death at home on Thursday was not immediately known, said the Press Democrat newspaper in Santa Rosa, California, 55 miles (90 km) north of San Francisco.

In its report on Felt's death, the New York Times called him "the most famous anonymous source in American history."

Felt, the No. 2 official at the FBI when the Watergate case broke, kept his role in the story a secret for 30 years. Only in 2005, at age 91, was his part made public in an article in Vanity Fair magazine written by Felt's family lawyer.

"I'm the guy they used to call Deep Throat," Felt told attorney John O'Connor.

For years, people had speculated and argued about the identity of "Deep Throat," whose name was derived from the title of a popular pornographic movie.

Vanity Fair scooped Woodward and Bernstein, who had promised not to reveal the name of the star source of their 1974 stories until after his death. But within a day of Felt's unveiling, Woodward wrote of his relationship with Felt.

Woodward said he turned to Felt after he and Bernstein wrote about the break-in at the offices of the Democratic National Committee at the Watergate complex in Washington.
 "This was the moment when a source or friend in the investigative agencies of government is invaluable," Woodward wrote in the Post. "I called Felt at the FBI ... It would be our first talk about Watergate."

Woodward said Felt told him the Watergate case was going to "heat up." He abruptly hung up but then started to provide guidance on the story, Woodward said.

Following a complicated routine, Felt and Woodward would arrange to meet in an underground garage, with "Deep Throat" corroborating information the Post reporters had gleaned from other sources and outlining a government conspiracy.

"Felt believed he was protecting the bureau by finding a way, clandestine as it was, to push some of the information from the FBI interviews and files out to the public, to help build public and political pressure to make Nixon and his people answerable," Woodward wrote.

"He had nothing but contempt for the Nixon White House and their efforts to manipulate the bureau for political reasons."

NIXON'S RESIGNATION

Reporting by the Post and other news organizations on the White House's involvement in the Watergate break-in and other political "dirty tricks" forced Nixon's resignation in 1974.

More than 30 officials would ultimately plead guilty or be convicted, including Attorney General John Mitchell, who served 19 months for conspiracy, obstruction of justice and perjury.

Felt repeatedly denied he was "Deep Throat," even though his position at the FBI made him an obvious candidate, and Nixon himself suspected Felt of leaking to the media.

A WHO'S WHO OF THE JFK ASSASSINATION CONSPIRACY AND COVER-UP

While the following selection of names in this special "who's who" is by no means complete, it does provide the reader of Final Judgment with a brief overview of the facts relating to the involvement of the individuals in question with the circumstances surrounding not only the JFK assassination itself, but also the efforts to not only uncover the truth about the assassination-and also to bury it.

Following each name and description are references to the particular chapters in Final Judgment where details about that individual appear in pertinent part. The inclusion of any name in particular is by no means intended to suggest that the individual-unless specifically stated-had foreknowledge that the murder of President Kennedy was being planned.

As we note in these pages, there were many people who were brought into the JFK assassination conspiracy and the subsequent cover-up who had no idea of the actual role that they were playing.
The following "who's who"-if read in this context-provides the reader a quick glance at the key individuals who ultimately prove central to a complete understanding of the entirety of the conspiracy that resulted in the assassination of President Kennedy.

AT PERMINDEX

Clay Shaw - If New Orleans District Attorney Jim Garrison had been permitted to carry out an unimpeded investigation and prosecution of Shaw, a CIA contract operative and a former director of the International Trade Mart in New Orleans implicated in involvement with Lee Harvey Oswald, David Ferrie, Guy Banister and other figures central to the JFK assassination conspiracy, Garrison would have divined Shaw's connections - through a shadowy corporation known as Permindex - to not only the Israeli Mossad, but also the international crime syndicate of Israeli loyalist Meyer Lansky.

Louis M. Bloomfield - Based in Montreal, Bloomfield was a long-time intelligence operative and a front man for the powerful Bronfman family interests. The Bronfmans were not only key international backers of Israel but also long-time figures in the Lansky crime syndicate. Bloomfield, one of the foremost figures in the Israeli lobby in Canada and one of Israel's leading international operatives, not only served as the chief shareholder in the Permindex Corporation on whose board of directors Clay Shaw served, but also had intimate ties to American intelligence.

Tibor Rosenbaum - One of the "godfathers" of the state of Israel and the first director for finance and supply for Israel's intelligence agency, the Mossad, Rosenbaum was a prime financial angel behind the Permindex corporation. His Swiss banking concern, the Banque De Credit International, also served as the chief European money laundry or the global crime syndicate of Miami-based crime chief Meyer Lansky.

John King - A close business associate of Tibor Rosenbaum's protégé and sometime front man, Bernard Cornfeld, King showed up in New Orleans in the early stages of Jim Garrison's investigation-before Clay Shaw's name had come up-and sought to persuade Garrison (through a bribery attempt) to give up the inquiry. Fortunately he failed in his scheme.

THE MOSSAD CONNECTION

David Ben-Gurion - Prime Minister of Israel; resigned his post in disgust with JFK's stance toward Israel. in April of 1963; Said JFK's position threatened Israel's very survival.

Yitzhak Shamir - A long-time Mossad officer (based largely at the Mossad's chief European office in Paris), Shamir headed the Mossad's assassination squad at the time of the JFK assassination. A former French intelligence officer has charged that Shamir himself arranged the hiring of JFK's actual assassins through a close ally in French intelligence.

Menachem Begin - In 1963, Begin (later prime minister of Israel) was a roving Israeli diplomat; prior to JFK's assassination he was overheard conspiring with

Meyer Lansky's California henchman, Mickey Cohen, in a conversation that suggested hostile intentions by Israel against the American president.
Luis Kutner - Although known largely as a "mob lawyer," (who was long and closely associated with Jack Ruby, a sometime-client) Kutner also doubled as an international intelligence operative and functioned as an advisor to an ad hoc pro-Israel lobby group in the United States.

A. L. Botnick - Head of the New Orleans office of the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) of B'nai B'rith, an intelligence and propaganda arm for Israel's Mossad; a close associate of New Orleans-based CIA contract operative Guy Banister who helped create Lee Harvey Oswald's preassassination profile as a "pro-Castro" agitator. Evidence suggests that Banister's manipulation of Oswald may have been carried out under the guise of an ADL "fact-finding" operation.

Arnon Milchan - Israel's biggest arms dealer, Milchan was "executive producer" (i.e. chief financial angel) of Oliver Stone's Hollywood fantasy about the JFK assassination-a fact which may explain Stone's aversion to exploring the Israeli connection to the affair.

Maurice Tempeisman - The international diamond merchant and Mossad operative who became the lover of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis and used his connections to double-perhaps triple-her substantial fortune, thereby co-opting the Kennedy family forever.

THE CIA CONNECTION

Rudolph Hecht - An owner of the CIA-linked Standard Fruit concern, Hecht was a prominent figure in the New Orleans Jewish community and as chairman of the board of directors of the International Trade Mart was Permindex board member Clay Shaw's primary sponsor.

James Jesus Angleton - Angleton, the CIA's long-time chief of counterintelligence, was the CIA's primary high-level conspirator in the murder of President Kennedy and the subsequent cover-up. Angleton, who had been co-opted by and was totally loyal to the Israeli Mossad, played a major role in the effort to frame Lee Harvey Oswald. Final Judgment is the first JFK assassination study to delve into Angleton's role in the conspiracy.

David Atlee Phillips - A long-time high-level CIA official, Phillips was the CIA station chief in Mexico City at the time a strange effort was underway to implicate Lee Harvey Oswald as a Soviet KGB collaborator. If anyone in the CIA knew the truth about Oswald, it was Phillips. He confessed publicly that the story about Oswald being in Mexico City was not precisely what the CIA had long claimed.

E. Howard Hunt - Long-time CIA officer and liaison to the anti-Castro Cuban exiles. Testimony by ex-CIA contract operative Marita Lorenz placed Hunt in Dallas, Texas the day before the president's assassination. The full truth about Hunt's actual involvement in the affair may never be known, but there is no question that Hunt was deeply involved in the intrigue surrounding the president's murder. Evidence does indeed indicate that there was a conscious effort to frame Hunt for involvement in the crime.

Guy Banister -The former FBI agent-turned-CIA contract operative whose New Orleans office was a central point for international intrigue involving the CIA, the anti-Castro Cuban exiles and the anti-DeGaulle forces in the French Secret Army Organization (OAS). Under Banister's direction, Lee Harvey Oswald established a public profile for himself as a "pro-Castro" agitator in the streets of New Orleans.

David Ferrie - An enigmatic adventurer and CIA contract operative, Ferrie was closely involved with Lee Harvey Oswald during Oswald's stay in New Orleans in the summer of 1963, working alongside Oswald out of Banister's headquarters. The investigation of Ferrie by New Orleans District Attorney Jim Garrison ultimately led to Garrison's discovery of Permindex board member Clay Shaw's ties to both Ferrie and Oswald.

Marita Lorenz - A former CIA contract operative, she testified under oath that one day prior to the assassination of President Kennedy she arrived in Dallas in an armed caravan of CIA-backed Cuban exiles who were met by not only Jack Ruby, who later killed Lee Harvey Oswald, but also CIA official E. Howard Hunt.

Guillermo & Ignacio Novo - Two brothers, veterans of the CIA-backed Cuban exile wars against Fidel Castro. According to Marita Lorenz, the Novo brothers were part of the armed caravan that arrived in Dallas one day before the assassination of President Kennedy. Many years after Dallas, the Novos were later convicted of participating in the murder of a Chilean dissident in collaboration with international adventurer Michael Townley who himself had ties to high-level figures implicated in the JFK conspiracy.

John Tower - In 1963 Tower was a newly-elected Republican U.S. Senator from Texas with close ties to the CIA. Shortly after the assassination he told associates of his own inside knowledge of the bizarre story of what really happened in Dealey Plaza. The story told by Tower suggests strongly that there were many unseen forces at work, manipulating many of the key players in the JFK assassination conspiracy. It was not until the release of Final Judgment that Tower's name was ever connected to the mystery surrounding the JFK assassination.

Victor Marchetti - A high-ranking CIA official who left the agency in disgust, Marchetti later made a career writing about the CIA. In a 1978 article he charged that the CIA was about to frame its long-time operative, E. Howard Hunt, with involvement in the JFK assassination. A libel suit resulting as a consequence of Marchetti's article resulted in a climactic finding by a jury that the CIA had been involved in the assassination of the president.

Robin Moore - A journalist with long-standing close ties to the CIA, Moore co-authored former CIA man Hugh McDonald's book, LBJ and the JFK Conspiracy which promoted James Jesus Angleton's false claim that the KGB was behind the president's murder-another of the disinformation stories that emerged following the assassination.

THE LANSKY SYNDICATE

Meyer Lansky - Chief executive officer and de facto "treasurer" of the international crime syndicate; active in gun-running on behalf of the Israeli underground; collaborated closely with American intelligence on a number of fronts; later settled in Israel. Researchers who have claimed that "the Mafia Killed JFK" have pointedly refused to acknowledge Lansky's preeminent positioning in the underworld.

Carlos Marcello - The head of the Mafia in New Orleans, Marcello owed his status to Meyer Lansky who was his chief sponsor in the crime syndicate. Marcello could not have orchestrated the JFK assassination-as some suggest-without Lansky's explicit approval.

Seymour Weiss - Meyer Lansky's chief bagman and liaison with the political establishment in Louisiana, he later served as a director of the CIA-linked Standard Fruit company and may actually have been a high-ranking CIA contract operative in New Orleans at the time of the JFK assassination.

Sam Giancana - The Mafia boss of Chicago, Giancana was a player in the CIA-Mafia plots against Castro; later murdered, probably at the behest of Santo Trafficante, Jr. His family says that Giancana admitted having been involved in the planning of the JFK assassination.

Santo Trafficante, Jr. - Although best known as the head of the Mafia in Tampa, Trafficante actually functioned as Meyer Lansky's chief lieutenant in the crime syndicate and as Lansky's liaison with the CIA in the Castro assassination plots.
Johnny Rosselli - A roving "ambassador" for the Mafia, Rosselli was the primary conduit between the CIA and the mob in the plots against Fidel Castro; may have arranged the murder of Sam Giancana for Trafficante and was later murdered himself.

Mickey Cohen - Meyer Lansky's West Coast henchman; Jack Ruby's role model and a gun-runner for the Israeli underground, Cohen collaborated closely with Israeli diplomat Menachem Begin prior to the JFK assassination;. Cohen arranged for John F. Kennedy to meet actress Marilyn Monroe who was assigned the task of finding out JFK's private views and intentions toward Israel.

Jack Ruby - A long-time functionary for the Lansky syndicate, Ruby was the Lansky connection man in Dallas and also engaged in CIA-linked gunrunning to the anti-Castro Cuban exiles. Evidence suggests there is more to Ruby's sudden "death" than meets the eye.

Jim Braden - A veteran personal courier for Meyer Lansky, Braden was almost assuredly in contact in Dallas with Jack Ruby prior to the JFK assassination. He was briefly detained in Dealey Plaza minutes after the president's murder, but those JFK assassination researchers who have mentioned Braden prefer to cast him as a "Mafia" figure rather than as Lansky's man on the scene in Dallas.

Al Gruber - A henchman of Meyer Lansky's West Coast operative, Mickey Cohen, Gruber and Ruby spoke by telephone just shortly before Ruby killed Lee Harvey Oswald. It is believed that Gruber gave Ruby the contract on Oswald on behalf of his superiors.

THE FRENCH CONNECTION

Charles DeGaulle - Repeatedly targeted for assassination by Israeli-allied forces in French intelligence and in the Secret Army Organization (OAS) who were angry that DeGaulle had granted independence to Arab Algeria. The Mossad-sponsored Permindex operation that also had a hand in the murder of JFK, laundered money used in the assassination attempts on DeGaulle.

Georges deLannurien - High ranking official in the SDECE, the French intelligence agency; pinpointed by a former French intelligence officer as the individual who (at the best of Mossad assassinations chief Yitzhak Shamir) contracted the hit team who killed JFK in Dallas.

Michael Mertz - A former French SDECE officer and the Paris connection for the Lansky-Trafficante heroin syndicate; alleged to have been one of the actual gunmen in Dallas on November 22, 1963. Said by some to be the legendary CIA contract killer, QJ/WIN.

Jean Soutre - A liaison for the French OAS with the CIA's E. Howard Hunt, Soutre maintained contact with Guy Banister's CIA- and mob-linked gun-running headquarters in New Orleans. Soutre may have been in Dallas at the time of the JFK assassination. There is evidence linking Soutre to James Jesus Angleton's intrigue inside the CIA that affected French intelligence in a dramatic way.

Thomas Eli Davis III - A world-traveling mercenary with apparent links to both Jack Ruby and Lee Harvey Oswald, Davis was taken into custody by the Algerian government for his subversive activities alongside Israeli agents in supplying weapons to the French OAS just prior to the JFK assassination. It is said that CIA operative QJJWIN (possibly Michael Mertz, one of the reputed assassins of President Kennedy) helped secure Davis's release from prison.

Geoffrey Bocca - A former propagandist for the OAS, Bocca later co-authored former CIA contract agent Hugh McDonald's book, Appointment in Dallas, which pointed the blame for the JFK assassination away from those who were actually responsible-the first of two suspect books put out by McDonald.

Christian David - A French Corsican criminal associated with reputed JFK assassin Michael Mertz, David has claimed knowledge of a French hit team involved in the JFK assassination. David himself was the chief suspect in the murder of a Moroccan dissident, Mehdi Ben-Barka, whose killing was orchestrated by the Israeli Mossad through anti-DeGaulle forces in French intelligence.

TRUTH SEEKERS
Mark Lane - Retained by Lee Harvey Oswald's mother to represent her son's interests before the Warren Commission, Lane's book Rush to Judgment was the first major critique of the Warren Commission Report. In a libel suit filed against The Spotlight newspaper by former CIA operative E. Howard Hunt, Lane proved to the satisfaction of a jury that the CIA had indeed been involved in the JFK assassination. His best-selling book Plausible Denial outlined the circumstances of that libel suit and its ultimate conclusion.

Gary Wean - A former detective on the Hollywood beat of the Los Angeles Police Department, Wean discovered how Meyer Lansky's West Coast henchman, Mickey Cohen, was conspiring against John F. Kennedy on behalf of the Israelis. In a meeting with the former sheriff of Dallas County, Bill Decker, Wean learned a portion of the truth about what really happened in Dallas.

NEWS TWISTERS

Edgar & Edith Stern - Close friends of Clay Shaw, major financial backers of the pro-Israel Anti-Defamation League (ADL) of B'nai B'rith, and owners of the WDSU media empire in New Orleans that not only played a major role in giving vast publicity to Lee Harvey Oswald's preassassination profile as a "pro-Castro agitator" but later sought to undermine Jim Garrison's investigation of Clay Shaw.
Johann Rush - As a young WDSU cameraman, Rush was on the scene to record Oswald's "pro-Castro" activities. He emerged-many years later-as the brains behind a "computer-enhanced" version of the famous Zapruder film of the JFK assassination that author Gerald Posner cited as "proof' that Oswald acted alone in the president's murder.

Drew Pearson - Accused by his own mother-in-law of being a "mouthpiece" for the pro-Israel ADL, Pearson had close ties to not only the Israeli lobby, but also the CIA and to President Lyndon Johnson and his cronies. It was Pearson who floated an unlikely story that Fidel Castro was behind the JFK assassination and who also played a major influence in shaping Earl Warren's perceptions of the tragedy.

Jack Anderson - As protégé of Drew Pearson, Jack Anderson likewise had strange connections that might have biased his own reportage on the JFK affair. Since 1963 Anderson has promoted a number of conflicting versions about "who really killed JFK" ranging from "the Mafia" to Fidel Castro or a combination of both.

Jack Newfield - A liberal columnist and some-time JFK assassination buff, Newfield has been a likewise long-standing devotee of Israel. He made a big splash with a highly fantastic story that missing Teamster boss Jimmy Hoffa had "ordered" two Mafia figures to arrange the killing of President Kennedy. Not surprisingly, Newfield's ridiculous story was given wide play in the Establishment media.

THEORISTS AND/OR PROPAGANDISTS?

Oliver Stone - His Hollywood extravaganza, JFK, gave the public a fullblown, full-color, gory-in-every-detail conspiracy theory on the JFK assassination. Yet, Stone's presentation of the conspiracy was far from complete and failed to reach any firm conclusions. He deliberately suppressed the "French connection" which, in turn, was the long-hidden Israeli connection. Not only was Stone's chief financial backer Israel's leading arms dealer but also his film distribution company had its origins in the Lansky crime syndicate. What's more, one of the chief shareholders in the film company was none other than Bernard Cornfeld, long-time associate of Permindex figure Tibor Rosenbaum

Frank Mankiewicz - This former publicist for the Israeli Mossad-linked Anti-Defamation League had a peculiar part in the events that took place prior to the murder of Robert F. Kennedy. Then when Oliver Stone began promoting his film JFK, Mankiewicz popped up as his key public relations man.
Anthony Summers - Author of one book hinting that the Kennedy family were responsible for the death-maybe the murder-of actress Marilyn Monroe, Summers wrote another book on the JFK conspiracy. In neither book did Summers reveal explosive information (of which he was aware) that could have helped point the direction of those same forces which played a part in both crimes.

Robert Morrow - A former CIA contract operative who played a major role in activities on the periphery of the JFK assassination conspiracy, Morrow's book on his experiences is rife with detail, yet suspect in the eyes of many who had looked into his claims. Morrow's book absolves the key CIA conspirator, James J. Angleton, of involvement in the JFK conspiracy and portrays him as being "out of the loop" when, in fact, precisely the opposite was true. Is it a coincidence that Morrow's book publisher is an American affiliate of an Israeli publishing company?

G. Robert Blakey - An unlikely choice to serve as director of the House Select Committee on Assassinations, Blakey had, just two years previously, served as a character witness for a long-time close associate of crime boss Meyer Lansky. When it came time to point the blame in the JFK assassination, Blakey targeted Lansky's protégé, New Orleans Mafia boss, Carlos Marcello, but looked no further. Blakey, likewise, found no role by the CIA-or any other intelligence agency-in the JFK assassination.

David Scheim - The author of a book that pins the murder of President Kennedy on "the Mafia," Scheim refuses to acknowledge Permindex board member Clay Shaw's intelligence connections and paints Israeli loyalist Meyer Lansky as a low-level syndicate figure with no influence of substance. Scheim's book was published by the American front for an Israeli publishing company.

Richard Billings - A journalist with close ties to the CIA, Billings played a major role in the media's campaign to undermine New Orleans District Attorney Jim Garrison's investigation of Clay Shaw. Billings emerged as the prime promoter of the outlandish theory that Garrison was a Mafia front man trying to take the focus off the Mafia and direct the attention toward the intelligence community.

James DiEugenio - Although a deep admirer of both John F. Kennedy and New Orleans District Attorney Jim Garrison, DiEugenio has tread lightly when inquiring into the ties between Clay Shaw and the Permindex operation with its multiple links to the Israeli Mossad and the crime syndicate.

Peter Dale Scott - His years of in-depth research on the JFK assassination have led him directly to the doorstep of the CIA, the Mossad and the Lansky Crime Syndicate, yet he has never been prepared to name names or point in the direction of those very forces, preferring to sidestep the issue.

ANOTHER VERY BIG piece of the puzzle falls into place here. I found it on DBS's Website - this puts Angleton with the CIA as key players in the False Flags and Coverups. Dr. Jones has it. It could not have been done without a large Zionist supporting cast. Jackie the Jewess was the trigger hand... :
---------


The murder of President John Fitzgerald Kennedy
researched by
Dr. Neville Thomas Jones, Ph.D.

 
Introduction

On the 22nd November, 1963, the United States President, John F. Kennedy, was murdered in Dallas, Texas. The method of assassination was a single gunshot to the head. Someone travelling in Vice President Lyndon B. Johnson's car, immediately behind the president's limousine, was filming the whole thing (as the following still demonstrates)!

 

Lyndon 'Lyin' Johnson was a Zionist Jew and became the unelected President of the United States at the instant of the real President's death.

Another Jew, Abraham Zapruder, was standing in exactly the right place to capture the murder of President Kennedy on cine film. The Zapruder family subsequently made a fortune selling the rights to this piece of film to the American government.

 
The Zapruder film

Using a Bell and Howell 414PD 8mm roll-film movie camera, Zapruder caught the assassination from the side of the limousine closest to the president. The owner's manual for this model of cine camera quoted the film speed as 16 frames per second (fps). However, the FBI claimed that Zapruder's camera was running at 18.3 fps in their tests, seemingly confirmed by the camera manufacturers, Bell and Howell (whose independent tests produced a speed of slightly over 18 fps). (Roland Zavada).

Several copies (at least 4) of the film were made by Zapruder, of which one was taken by the FBI.

The film was not seen by the public until twelve years after it was taken, when it was aired on a late-night talk show in America. Today it appears in many places and forms on the Internet (YouTube, for example), and is used here as the basis of the photographic evidence examined.

 
From which direction was JFK shot in the head?

Zapruder frame 313 captures the instant of JFK's assassination. Analysis of subsequent frames, such as 326 (below), show no sign of any blood, brain tissue or skull fragments on the back seat of the presidential limousine, nor on its boot. From this we deduce that JFK was not shot from the back. Also, if the bullet passed right through his head, as seems almost certain, then, by this lack of morbid debris, he could not have been shot from the front either.

 

This leaves only three possible directions: from the left side, the right side, or upwards through his head.

 
Exiting projectiles

Viewing Zapruder's film at normal speed, something flies out upwards and to the right from President Kennedy's head when he receives the fatal shot. In frames 313 and 314, two distinct projectiles, slightly separated but travelling in the same direction, can clearly be seen. Both of these ejections have flown out of the camera's field of view by the time that frame 315 is captured.

 

 

The leading projectile, number 1, has travelled (235 - 34) - (146 - 38) pixels in the +ve x-direction and (415 - 110) - (408 - 297) pixels in the +ve y-direction, in the time between these two frames being captured (0.0625s at 16 fps, or 0.0546s at 18.3 fps). I.e., its speed is between 3,442.24 and 3,940.29 pixels per second.

President Kennedy was 6'1" tall (Wallechinsky & Wallace). Using the full-length photo of JFK in Berlin (Freie Universitaet, 26th June, 1963), and having calculated the line AB in frame 313 to be 30.23 pixels, it can be shown that the projectile material was leaving the top of President Kennedy's head at a minimum* speed of between 31.6 and 36.2 metres per second (equivalent to between 104 and 119 ft/s).

* This is a minimum value because frames 313 and 314 are two-dimensional images providing no depth information.

 
Smoke

Frames 312 to 317, inclusive, of the Zapruder film are reproduced here, having been contrast-enhanced and converted to greyscale images, in order to highlight a definite puff of smoke right next to the left side of the President's head.

The smoke rapidly expands and dissipates in about 3 tenths of a second (0.2732s at 18.3 fps and 0.3125s at 16 fps), being just discernable in the last frame of this sequence.

Material from the head wound has exited at high speed, as we have observed, and would not wispily linger in the air as smoke does. Moreover, it is evident that this smoke has an initial component of velocity in the horizontal direction equal to that of the limousine and that this component is slowed by air resistance (compare the expanding smoke cloud with the white object on the lawn and with the fixed features of the president's car, such as the top of the rear seat). The separation between the smoke cloud and the white object on the grass decreases at a rate that is very slightly less than the rate at which the white object is perceived to travel with respect to the limousine.

Neither John nor Jackie Kennedy are smoking a cigarette. The smoke has been caused by some explosive reaction, such as the detonation of a firearm cartridge. Such smoke remains where the gun is; it does not travel with the bullet. The fact that this smoke appears in the sequence at the same time as the fatal injury, and that it emanates from the left-hand-side of JFK's head, where Jackie Kennedy has positioned herself, means that President Kennedy was killed by his wife.

I am not the first to reach this conclusion. This view is shared by someone calling themselves 'Nohup' who, in a public forum on 3rd April 2008, wrote "After studying the Zapruder film for nearly 20 years, I've come to the conclusion that the only person verified to have the access and angle to have delivered the fatal gunshot to JFK was Jackie Kennedy. The telltale sign is right before his head explodes, where she moves forward with something in her hand."

There is no doubt, if one studies the Zapruder film running at normal speed, that Mrs. Kennedy seems to whip something quickly down the rear seat after her husband is shot, before she clambers out onto the boot. (Johnson had the whole of the presidential limousine immediately ripped out and shredded, before having the car re-fitted and using it for himself.)

 

Furthermore, a lamp post has been superimposed onto a number of frames, so as to obstruct a good view of the president and his wife in frame 271 and/or 272:

 

This lamp post, together with a conveniently obscuring traffic sign, have apparently been removed by the Dallas authorities.

 
Jackie Kennedy

Mrs. Jacqueline Kennedy (nee Bouvier) was a Jewess, a fact well hidden, but revealed by her cousin/step-brother, Gore Vidal, in his autobiography:

"... the ethnic surprise buried deep inside Gore Vidal's much-hyped autobiography, ... 'Palimpsest: A Memoir,' ... [is that Jackie Kennedy's] mother, Janet, was Jewish. Janet, who had Jackie with her husband John 'Black Jack' Bouvier, eventually divorced him and married Hugh Auchincloss, who was also Vidal's stepfather.

"In the book, ... Vidal offhandedly writes on page 372, 'One should note that the first of Hughdie's (Hugh Dudley Auchincloss) three high-powered wives was Russian, the second my mother, the third Jackie's mother, Janet, born Lee or, as my mother used to observe thoughtfully, Levy.' Vidal continues, 'Apparently, Janet's father had changed his name in order to become the first Jew to be a vice president of the Morgan bank. My mother wondered how Hughdie, a quiet but sincere anti-Semite, would respond when he found out.' As for Janet Lee, he writes she used to say she was 'of the Virginia Lees'...until the real Lees ordered her to shut up.'..." (Ahmed Rami quoting from the New York Post of 9th November, 1995.)

Peter Kurth during his very brief review of Christopher Andersen's book, "Jackie After Jack," writes: "America's grieving first widow, during those terrible Four Days in November, was chain-smoking Salems and shot up on speed. She was also entertaining everyone in earshot with the grisly details of Kennedy's death, compelled ... to describe the way his head blew off in her lap, how she tried to stick the skull back on in the hope it would keep him alive, how Texas Gov. John Connally was 'squealing like a stuck pig,' etc. (For the record, she did not remember trying to crawl out of the car.)"

 
The weapon

According to his long-term mistress, who bore him a son, Johnson was sure the day before this atrocity took place that President J.F. Kennedy was going to be killed whilst being driven through Dallas. This implies that he knew there would be no untoward problem with the assassin, since she would be right next to her victim. However, a sophisticated weapon, such as a Smith & Wesson semi-automatic handgun, could quite possibly jam at the predetermined moment, spoiling Johnson's (and his backers) murderous plan. At such close range, however, a simple, crude pistol would be all that was required.

Something like this Deringer (more often spelt with a double 'r') would thus have been chosen; an extremely simple, easily concealed, one shot, miniture cannon.

 

"The .41 rimfire cartridge was created for use in small Derringer type pistols. The .41 rimfire round was very slow, 13 grains of black powder propelling a 130 grain lead bullet at 425 feet per second, yielding a muzzle energy of 52 ft lb." (Cushman).

If the leading projectile captured in frames 313 and 314 of Zapruder's cine film was indeed the bullet from a .41 calibre rimfire cartridge, then its analysed speed of at least 104-119 ft/s is commensurate with an accelerated lump of lead that has lost kinetic energy during its passage through human tissue, and in particular in breaking through the skull.

Just such a single shot, .41 calibre pistol was used to assassinate President Abraham Lincoln in 1865, again at point-blank range, again by his wife, and again with the blame attached to some patsie. How Talmudic Jews love this sort of repetition.

Look again at frame 326, above. Does this small-barrelled pistol not remarkably resemble what Jacqueline Kennedy seems to be holding in her right hand?

 
Conclusions

A little later that same day, 22nd November 1963, on board Air Force One, Johnson was sworn in as U.S. President in his home state of Texas, with a composed Jewess, Jacqueline Bouvier, faithfully by his left side and another Jewess (his wife, Ladybug) on his right side.

 

How do you ensure that 'Lyin' Jew Johnson is not shot? You do not shoot from the front, because Johnson was travelling in the car behind. How do you ensure that Jewess Jacqueline Kennedy is not shot? You do not fire from either side, nor from the front or back. How do you ensure that President Kennedy is killed? You have to shoot him in the head from very close range. When a shot is fired from a gun, where is the smoke from the gunpowder? At the place of firing.

Congress'man' Albert Thomas perhaps knows more than a little about this plan, as he winks at smilin' 'Lyin'. Mrs. Kennedy has maybe a twinge of remorse here, but Ladybug Johnson appears satisfied with the day's events (like her husband, Ladybug was a rabid Zionist).

 

"Congressman Johnson used legal and sometimes illegal methods to smuggle hundreds of Jews into Texas, using Galveston as the entry port. ... Johnson smuggled boatloads and planeloads of Jews into Texas." (Source.)

"It is interesting, but not surprising, to note that in all the words written and uttered about the Kennedy assassination, Israel's intelligence service agency, the Mossad, has never been mentioned. And yet a Mossad motive is obvious. On this question, as on almost all others, American reporters cannot bring themselves to cast Israel in an unfavorable light - despite the fact that Mossad complicity is as plausible as any of the other theories." - US Representative Paul Findley, March 1992.

Johnson was a Zionist Jew and hence favourable to Ezra-hell (nuclear weapons of mass destruction given to the enemies of humanity, prolonging and escalating the Vietnam war, allowing the Federal Reserve Bank scam to continue, etc.), whereas President John F. Kennedy saw the Jews for what they are and would have curbed their power and influence (no nuclear weapons allowed to the enemies of humanity, an end to the Vietnam war, abolition of the Federal Reserve Bank, dismantling of the CIA, etc.)

The evidence contained within Zapruder's movie points to the murderess being John Kennedy's own wife, Jacqueline, who placed a small handgun either under JFK's chin or just below his left ear and fired a single, low velocity bullet straight up through his brain.

Johnson & Co. made sure that they captured this moment, by having it filmed from three different perspectives. No doubt this assassination is gleefully watched by the offspring of the Devil, behind closed doors, to this day.

Angleton helped set up the "Rat lines" as an OSS agent:

---------

General Reinhard Gehlen and the OSS

by Craig Roberts

While the Operation Paperclip scientists were setting up shop in the U.S., General Reinhard Gehlen began re-establishing his presence in West Germany. His organization, the Gehlen Org, quickly regained control of the majority of his former agents inside the Iron Curtain, and with the help of many of his former staff, put them back to work. Though he agreed not to hire any former Gestapo, SS or SD members, he sought them out and put them on the payroll - the CIA's payroll - regardless of his promise. And the CIA did not stop him.

Among his recruits were Dr. Franz Six and Emil Augsburg. Six and Augsburg had been members of an SS mobile Death's Head killing squad that hunted down and killed Soviet Jews, intellectuals and partisans wherever they could be found. Six was known as a Streber, or Eager Beaver, for the enthusiastic manner in which he pursued his job. Gehlen also recruited the former Gestapo chiefs of Paris, France, and Kiel, Germany. Then, that not being enough, he hired Willi Krichbaum, the former senior Gestapo leader for southeastern Europe.

Gehlen was pleasantly surprised by what happened next. His new employer, the OSS, not only encouraged but financed an escape mechanism set up by Gehlen for former Nazis. The Gehlen Org established, with OSS help, "rat lines" to provide an underground escape network to be used by former war criminals to escape prosecution by German war crimes tribunals. By way of this organization, over 5,000 Nazis secretly made their way out of Europe to relocate around the globe.

Most went to South and Central America. The countries of choice were Argentina, Chile, Nicaragua and El Salvador. Within a few years after their arrival in these particular countries, the infamous right-wing government "death squads" made their first appearances. Of note in the expatriate community were such characters as Dr. Joseph Mengele, who specialized in crude genetic experiments on Jewish concentration camp inmates, and mass murderer Klaus Barbie, the infamous "Butcher of Lyons."

According to some sources, former OSS officer James Jesus Angleton, who later became CIA Chief of Intelligence, was the man responsible for providing the Nazis with new identities before their departure from the detainment camps. Angleton worked directly for Dulles.

To satisfy his new employers, Gehlen realized that he had to produce information that was of value to Washington. He also realized that for an intelligence organization to be of value, and to justify a large budget, it had to have an entity that was considered a deadly threat to spy on. He knew that the Americans had little knowledge concerning both the Russians as a military machine, and what activities were transpiring behind the Iron Curtain. The Red Menace would fit the requirement of the ominous threat nicely. All Gehlen had to do was paint as bleak a picture of the situation as he could, and continue creating reports that indicated that the scenario was continually deteriorating. The more bad news he gave Washington, the more money he would have to work with. He knew that in peacetime, the only way to justify a large intelligence organization was to make sure there was always "an enemy at the gates."

He began by feeding information to Dulles - and consequently to Truman - that appeared to show that the Russians were poised to attack the West. He reported that the Soviet forces in eastern Europe were comprised of 208 crack assault divisions, most of which were highspeed capable motorized rifle and tank divisions. Such figures showed that the Communists outnumbered the Western forces by a ratio of ten-to-one.

Then, in early 1947, he reported to the fledgling CIA that his agents had noted subtle changes in Soviet billeting and leave policies, and that troops were being recalled for some unspecified reason. He alluded that this could be the beginning of a preparation phase for the suspected invasion.

This was followed by Gehlen's prediction that the Russians would move quickly once all troops and equipment had been activated and put into position for attack. It wouldn't be long until there was a Soviet blitzkrieg.

In actual fact, Gehlen's information could not have been further from the truth. By 1946, the Red Army was an over-extended, underequipped, and exhausted force of combat-riddled units. Many of the battalions that had reached Berlin had done so on foot. There was not even sufficient motor transport to move one entire division without depriving another of its motorized assets. Almost half of the Red Army's transport was horse drawn. In addition to this, U.S. Army Intelligence had established that the majority of Soviet forces in Eastern Europe was bogged down in rebuilding the eastern zones, reorganizing security structures, and performing governmental administrative functions. According to the intelligence estimate, the Soviet ground and air forces would not be combat effective against the Western powers for at least the next decade.

The 10:1 Russian superiority figure that Gehlen referred to was unrealistic from the beginning. Gehlen well knew, as did Dulles and the other veteran OSS agents, that the Soviet divisional structure was far less in numerical manpower than its U.S. equivalent. A Soviet division was typically one third as strong as an American division. And its leadership was far less effective. Instead of being able to function in combat with flexibility by making on-the-spot field expedient decisions, the Soviet officers had to wait for orders from upper echelon before reacting to a change in the flow of battle. This fact in itself often caused the Soviets grievous losses, and even defeats, during land battles. The U.S. forces, on the other hand, encouraged battlefield decisions during the heat of conflict to be made at the lowest levels.

Still, the OSS - and the follow-on CIG (Central Intelligence Group which replaced the OSS) - chose to conveniently believe Gehlen. Over 70 % of the reports submitted to Washington on CIA stationary were simply Gehlen's words. According to a former CIA officer, "Gehlen's reports and analyses were sometimes simply retyped onto CIA stationary and presented to President Truman without further comment."

The results of such activities were exactly what the intelligence community - and the military - wanted. Truman ceased cutting the military budget; increased spending for weapons research, military equipment, aircraft and the space program; ordered an increase in the development and construction of nuclear weapons; and most importantly to the young CIA, began pumping millions of dollars into the "black" budget for covert operations. In the ten years that followed the war, the CIA consumed over $200 million dollars of funds that did not have to be accounted for.

According to Victor Marchetti, former chief analyst on Soviet military capabilities and author of The CIA and the Cult of Intelligence, "The agency loved Gehlen because he fed us what we wanted to hear. We used his stuff constantly, and we fed it to everybody else: the Pentagon; the White House; the newspapers. They loved it." Marchetti further explained, "Gehlen had to make his money by creating a threat that we were afraid of, so we would give him more money to tell us about it. In my opinion, the Gehlen organization provided nothing worthwhile for understanding or estimating Soviet military or political capabilities in Eastern Europe or anywhere else."

The final result of all these cloak-and-dagger exercises was a reputed Cold War that lasted for almost half a century, and cost American taxpayers alone over $8 trillion dollars.

Peacetime intelligence gathering had become big business - profitable to not only the growing intelligence organizations, but to the defense industry and the investors who financed both it and the government.

[Tomas O'Crohan]

This post reminds me of some of the 911 "Truth Movement" assertions of "no planes," "holodeck effect," "mini-nukes" and the like. In other words, disinformation, the point of which is to obscure the real culprits from the necessary culpability. I'm surprised that DBS would post such shiite on his website. Anyone who's familiar with the medical evidence and the unanimous testimony of the Parkland Hospital doctors knows that there were three wounds to JFK, entry wound to the throat, entry wound to the back between the shoulder blades and fatal head shot to the right temple above and in front of the right ear with a massive exit wound to the back of the head. Dr. Manik, in his extensive review of the x-rays (including the altered ones) believes that there were two head shots, one to the back of the head and then a fraction of a second later, the one from the front captured on the Zapruder film. It has also been thoroughly documented that there were at least three Corsican shooters in Dealey Plaza and that the so-called "Secret Service" driver, one William Greer, a County Tyrone born loyalist (i.e. killers of Irish Catholics wherever they may be found) brought the limousine to a complete stop in the pre-designated killing zone so that the shooters would have a stationary target. It was the elimination of this complete stop (testified to by many eye witnesses) behind the alteration of the Zapruder film. I know of NO researcher or medical professional at Parkland Hospital who claims that there were ANY wounds to the left side of JFK's head, the side that Jackie was sitting on. Could Jackie have inflicted the wounds to JFK's back, neck and right temple? This is impossible and absurd. Since there were no wounds to the left side of his head, how exactly did Jackie "shoot" him? If you watch the Zapruder film closely, it becomes clear that many frames were cut and otherwise altered in order to obfuscate the driver of the limousine having brought the vehicle to a full stop. This explains the "jerky" movements of all of the passengers, including Jackie. What is posited in this piece of propaganda as Jackie "hiding" something in the seat is no doubt an altered film collapsing in time her frantic attempt to get on the truck of the car to retrieve a part of his brain that was blown out the back of his head. She handed over what she retrieved from the trunk of the car to a Parkland doctor as has well been documented. I have no idea what her ethnicity is as I have never researched her geneology. However, I do know there is not a shred of evidence that there were any wounds to the left side of JFK's head and therefore, whatever her ethnicity may be, there is not a shred of evidence that she inflicted any wounds to JFK on that terrible day when history was altered for the benefit of mass murderers and to the detriment of all noble people of the earth. DBS's credibility must be in question to permit such shiit to be posted on his website. He is either completely ignorant of the facts of this horrible day or is intentionally spreading disinformation. Which is it?

[CrackSmokeRepublican]

Tomas good points.

1. In the earlier frames 226-232,  Kennedy is seen loosening his tie and covering his mouth. He has been shot at this point and looks like he's coughing up a bullet.  Jackie is far away from him in her seat. Obviously, there are at least two shooters at play here.

 In the meantime, before the head shot at 313, she reaches to him as he leans into her. Dr. Jones left this earlier bullet and chain of events out of his "head shot" with the derringer hypothesis.  If she had a small handheld, she could have definitely setup for the trigger pull.

2. At 313 is the head shot. Now if you believe Dr. Jones, you will agree with his bullet placement, smoke  and "spray". :

Neither John nor Jackie Kennedy are smoking a cigarette. The smoke has been caused by some explosive reaction, such as the detonation of a firearm cartridge. Such smoke remains where the gun is; it does not travel with the bullet. The fact that this smoke appears in the sequence at the same time as the fatal injury, and that it emanates from the left-hand-side of JFK's head, where Jackie Kennedy has positioned herself, means that President Kennedy was killed by his wife.

.

Now if all you need to believe is that Jackie had a small Derringer pointed from the back of JFK's neck to the right side of his head, you might go with this theory.  While her hand is at the back of his head at frames 315-326, you don't see any recoil from Jackie's shooting hand which kind of disproves this theory.   Never the less, there would have to be two or more shooters (Corsicans, Israelis, whatever).  She would be a backup shooter.  Now, I don't know about Jackie being Jewish. She raised the Kennedy kids as Catholic Irish but she does have a few skeletons in her family closet.  If she conspired with Johnson, then anything is possible.

3. Apparently, and most importantly, Dr. Jones appears to be really pissed off at the NeoCon Jews and the Criminal State of Israel. He blames all of them, especially Johnson, for compromising public trust, lying and allowing the Jew NeoCons of his day to launch wars of aggression.  Without Johnson in power, there would not have been the Arab-Israeli wars of the 1960s.  The loosening of US immigration laws in the USA in 1965 by Jewish Legislators was done to allow Jews to move en-masse from Palestine to the USA in case they lost their coming wars with Arabs-Eygpt. I doubt anyone in Israel in the 1960s would have trusted Kennedy's support of Israel in event of war with Syria-Egypt at that time. He championed the Algerian muslims in their civil war with the French - the Mossad Jews couldn't feel secure he wouldn't waver.  

4. The Zapruder Film was altered. It was likely altered by the Mossad-Jew Mole Angleton and his creeps. In fact, without the Jew Angleton and his ability to confiscate evidence and squelch investigations, the entire operatives behind the murder and coverup would have been tried in a court of law at this point. Moreover, they would have been executed by now for the crime.  Just as Criminal JEWS in the US Govt. and Intelligence agencies has squelched the investigation into 9/11, you see the same Jewish hands in the setup of Oswald and coverup of Kennedy.

5. Israel's fingerprints are all over the setup and murder of Kennedy.  How it was done is somewhat immaterial at this point with 100s of theories out there. How it was COVERED UP is material since it points to the same DUAL LOYALIST CROWD RUNNING THE US GOVERNMENT TODAY.

[Tomas O'Crohan]

The Zionists gained greatly as a result of the murder of the last real American president, JFK, of this there is no doubt. I'm sure that Piper has accurately shown the mossad connection to this great crime. The cia and the military industrial complex also gained greatly given that JFK had issued an executive order withdrawing troops from Vietnam and had an ongoing secret detente with the Soviets given the near catastrophic missle crisis in 1962. He had also started the process through his brother to dismantle the CIA. With his murder, the military industrial complex kept two profitable wars in play, Vietnam and the Cold War and the CIA was saved from their well deserved fate, oblivion. JFK had also taken on the criminal "Federal Reserve" by issuing an executive order authorizing the treasury department to issue United States Notes (Greenbacks) backed by the treasury's silver hoard. He was also bitterly opposed to "Israel's" nuclear program and there is ample correspondence to demonstrate this fact. Any one of these things alone could have got him killed given the fact that we haven't been a constitutional republic since the fraud of WW2.
     My only point is that we don't need Jackie's involvment to show a Zionist connection and more to the point, there's no evidence of her involvment, period. If the mossad arranged for trusted hit teams to be assembled for the murder, why would they need the wife or take the risk that she would blow the plot? Remember, we have three wounds, which one is she alleged to have caused and where is the evidence for it given her position in the limousine? The assertion of "smoke" when x is fiddled with on a computer screen which is then superimposed on y is what wankers assert, as did the author you quoted. We can make a computer screen show anything (just ask the global warming propagandists).
    DBS has a wonderful website filled with reliable, historical documents. I'm just puzzled that he would want all that valid information thrown into question by posting something as absurd as this "Dr. Johnson's" malarky. As I pointed out before, it's like having a truthful 911 site and then posting a "holodeck effect" article on it. It diminishes the value of the entire site.

[CrackSmokeRepublican]

I hear what you are saying about the "holodeck".  

I guess a lot of people are "p*ssed off" right now about the invasion of Palestine by Israel and this is just another jab at the bastards as stated above in point #3.

Bernie,

I've been studying JFK's murder recently. One of the private films was immediately taken by the FBI and never released. The famous one - Zapruder - has been seriously edited apparently.

Neville,  July 30, AD 2008

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Bernie,

I've watched the replay of JFK's murder several times now and the more I watch it, the more convinced I am that the Jewess Jacqueline Bouvier did it.

Neville,  July 31, AD 2008

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Neville,

Well, I just looked at this video on YouTube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9WCc_y5k0n8

At 29 seconds it looks like she is stashing a gun ( or something ) in a secret backseat compartment.

She also leans into him before that. Good eye Neville.

Bernie,  July 31, AD 2008  
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Bernie, Eric  

The fatal shot came from somewhere around the rear of his head, because the exit of the bullet, with brain tissue, etc., can be seen at his right temple.

Something happens to Kennedy just before this - he seems to be stunned by some sort of pain, yet the 'bodyguards' that are facing him in the car take no notice, rather the one nearest the camera can be seen exchanging looks at Jacqueline Kennedy, at which point she takes something in her right hand, moves toward JFK, takes him by the left wrist with her left hand and puts her right hand seemingly to somewhere around his left ear. Then the 'bodyguards' look the other way ( very strange behaviour if they were in the least bit genuine ), JFK's head explodes towards the side of the car nearest the camera, she whips something quickly back from his head with her right hand and tucks it into what I thought was her purse or handbag, before climbing onto the boot of the car.

The Zapruder film has been altered and frames removed, apparently. Another ( fourth ) film was confiscated by the FBI and never seen. Also, Zapruder was in the perfect position to capture JFK's death - a typical hallmark of such evil beings.

They had to make certain that JFK was dead. The only way to do that is a shot to the back of the head at very close range. Then blame someone else, who is disposed of before the truth surfaces. No one wants to believe that the wife of the victim could do such a thing. Thus the eye sees what it wants to see. This method was used with Lincoln and the Rothschilds knew that it would work. Doing it in public is a strange irony, inasmuch as this adds, rather than detracts, from their ability to get away with it.

Jacqueline Bouvier was matched up with Kennedy, deliberately should such a necessity as this later arise ( for he was destined to become President ). There was no love lost between them. Just as, IN MY OPINION, Robin Cook was lured by his secretary to leave his wife, and then led to his murder by her. ( See the Robin Cook's murder link on my site. )

Isn't it Jael who drives the tent peg into her drugged lover's temple and out the other side? ( Judges 4:21 ) She is then described as "most blessed of women" ( Judges 5:24 ). She decapitated him afterwards, by the way.

Getting back to the French Jewess, Jacqueline Bouvier, she claimed afterwards that she moved over towards John to "try and put the top of his head back on." Clearly this was a lie.

Neville,  Friday August 1, AD 2008  
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Neville,

No, she tucks/drops the gun ( you can see the silver barrel )

into a secret compartment in the back seat, her hand

and whole forearm goes right INTO the back seat.

 

Bernie,  August 1, AD 2008  
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Bernie,

I've just watched the video clip again, to see if she passes anything to the guy who comes to meet her on the boot, but I think you are right, Bernie, she has put it down the back of the seat somewhere. I notice that the security man nearest the camera dives away from the centre of the car as Kennedy is hit by whatever first stunned him.

Neville, August 1, AD 2008  
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Bernie,

We need the post mortem report, too. I'll do some searches this end. You are correct, she disposes of the object down the back of the seat somewhere.

Neville, August 1, AD 2008  

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Neville,

 

Unless they altered the film then you are correct

and she did it.

Bernie,  August 1, AD 2008  

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"The videos from 1963 are such low quality that it's hard to figure out what's going on, but it's obvious that a lot of people were assisting with the JFK assassination, including the driver and some of the Secret Service people.

Kay Griggs and other people have pointed out that the Jewish crime network uses women, such as Chandra Levy and Monica Lewinsky, as bait to lure men into blackmail traps or death, and they use homosexual men for the homosexuals. And some people wonder if John Lennon's wife was actually working for the Jewish crime network and trying to control him.

Now that the Internet is allowing people to discuss the tactics of the Jewish crime network, I've seen people wonder if Jackie was involved in the assassination of her husband, or at least knew that it was coming."

Eric,  August 1, AD 2008, 8:13 AM

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bernie,

JFK is certainly not shot from the front, but from the back. I would say, just below the left ear. Connelly states in an interview on YouTube that there was blood and brain tissue from the fatal wound in the back of the car when he surfaced, yet there is nothing on the back of the seats, nor on the boot ( check the videos ). The reports from the hospital 'doctors' are clearly lies, since the back of JFK's head is not blown off. The bullet exits from the front, right temple, taking large amounts of brain tissue and bone fragments with it.

Johnson had JFK's car gutted and cut up into pieces before being re-fitted. He then used it for his own car. ( Typical of these reptiles. )

Jacqueline Bouvier's testimony regarding JFK's head injuries has been destroyed.

Neville, August 5, AD 2008
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Onassis and LBJ are the keys to all of this, but one thing is very certain - this is something that they do not want exposed.

Be careful.

Neville, August 5, AD 2008

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Let's say everybody but me, myself, and I can see what you say is clear, which of these possibilities is the most likely:

a) Jackie is a Jewish plant from years past ( two children, etc. ) who gets a hidden gun from the seat and literally blows her husband's head off in full sight of a lot of people on the other side of the street, then, with split second timing replaces the gun and completes a scene which no academy award winning actress could pull off in a fictional setting in less than a dozen takes, and all this whilst timing the deed perfectly to be interrupted and confused by passing the street sign that would become the world's view of the event.

b) The other half-dozen major theories, backed by eye-witness testimonies in most cases ( as with the shooters on the grassy knoll, etc. ) are no longer possibilities because of this D-grade YouTube version.

c) Oswald did it all.

d) This YouTube lends itself to the adding of the gun and the arm movements and presenting a "dramatic" new theory, which, if this was the case ( and something that even an amateur could pull off with the jerky movements ), then all of letter (a) would, in fact, be a lying attempt to do what??? What could be the motivating force or reason behind such an alteration of the film???

I think letter (d) is far and away the most likely explanation of what this film really shows. Maybe--if this is accurate...and you agree it could be--then Who, What, Why, and maybe Where and When are the real questions those still seeking answers about the assassination need to ask.  Such seeking is a quasi-worthy pursuit, I agree, having spent no few hours at it myself before leaving it to others and moving on to matters not easily mingled with this one without dampening the larger effort, and help cause others to lose track of the ball, as it were, seeing so many on the field. Anyway, there are unarguable Jew-connected facts associated with the event ( covered pretty thoroughly by Michael Collins Piper in his book Final Judgment ). So, if there is proof that Jackie was a Jewish set-up from the start and the film is not altered, there is no doubt that it could fit in with those other reasons Piper noted, and the whole thing could obliquely be employed as still further evidence as to the lengths the Talmudist/Kabbalist liars will go to keep their train on the track . . . a train that JFK had clear plans on the table to wreck by refusing to give Israel's Ben Gurion the atomic secrets . . . putting into effect his father's plans to overturn the "Federal Reserve" and the IRS into action . . . making brother Bobby Attorney General to wipe out Meyer Lansky's controlling crime syndicate . . . pulling the U.S. "advisors" out of Viet Nam, etc.  Lyndon Johnson reversed all of this, most of it during the first week on the job. Talk about motive.

I don't think we have to be careful about exposing crime any longer. A few decades ago it would have been risky to stand up to any type of organized crime gang, but the Internet has changed the situation dramatically.

Fear will not protect us or make the world better.    

Just look at the latest problems that the FBI is having with the anthrax case. Everything the FBI says now is being questioned and investigated by people all over the world. The JFK assassination would not have been very successful today. And the 9/11 attack would have been successful if it had been done in 1963.

The Internet is removing the secrecy that has been protecting criminals, and it's getting worse for them every day. And there's nothing they can do to stop it.

The majority of people don't investigate anything, but they don't have any effect on the world. They just watch television.


Eric,   August 6, AD 2008
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Moves are well underway to curb and control the Internet. The god of this world uses these phoney bits of paper called 'money' to buy what cannot be controlled through the Zionist crime network.

My opinion is that only The Almighty will see us through this one. There is undoubtedly danger attached to ourselves in what we broadcast ( what has happened to Christopher Bollyn and his family, for example? ) and who will stand up and be counted if the 'authorities' silence any one of us?

When the going gets tough, the masses tune in to game shows and football matches!

11 September is obvious to a blind man, but people do not want to see it. Far from having to become more careful in this day and age, I see the children of the Devil as becoming more and more blatant.

If the Zapruder film really does show Jacqueline Kennedy murdering her husband, then what could be more blatant than allowing it to see the light of day?

People see what they want to see.

Without God, we are nothing. And we certainly cannot stand up to organized Jewry, which 'owns' most of the entire world now.

Neville,  August 6, AD 2008

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sounds good and contains some element of truth regarding conventional criminal operations.  The real battle, however,  is about the highest level of criminality possible, namely, the ongoing theft of God's Eternal Plan for mankind by the admittedly Satan empowered Pharisee Religionists. Their Big Bang Paradigm of 15 billion years of evolution is now textbook "science".  A two hour "science" program two nights ago closed with these words: "We are the children of comets . . . and we are inextricably linked to them."  The insanity of an explosion of an infinitesimal "substanceless substance" 15 billion years ago creating all that exists is now standard "wisdom and knowledge" for the Pharisee controlled universities, all print, audio, and visual media, and essentially all of the churches and religions.

But, not to worry; this is the precise Biblical scenario for the establishment of a Global Government that has its Satanic empowerment quickly exposed, and moves step by step through the events of two prescribed time frames ( 7 Trumpets & "little season" ) to the end, viz.,, an eternal New Earth for those who can see that the ultimate source of true wisdom is recognizing the obvious, i.e., the explanation by "science" for all that exists is crazy and leads nowhere, and if we can't trust a God who told us in writing over 1900 years ago of a Satan-empowered Global Government arising in a time when instant global TV, laser tattoos, slavery, etc. would be commonplace, then who does a wise person trust?

Marshall, August 6, AD 2008

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Internet has changed the situation dramatically. The 9/11 attack was exposed as a false flag operation by Israel because of the Internet. 9/11 would have been a very successful trick if it had occurred in 1963 because none of us would have had easy access to photos or video of what happened that day.

The Internet allowed ordinary people around the world to analyze photos, video, seismic data, news reports, etc, of 9/11. And the Internet allowed people to discuss 9/11 and spread information to other people.

And the Internet has allowed people to spread information that I and other people never even knew about, such as the bombing of the King David Hotel in 1946, and the attack on the USS liberty in 1967. The Internet is also allowing us to easily look through photos of the Nazi camps and noticed that there were no gas chambers.

The idea that a group of people can control the Internet is ridiculous. The people who would be most interested in controlling the Internet are the Zionist Jews because the Internet is allowing people all over the world to expose their criminal operations, and this is ruining Israel's reputation. If they could control the Internet, they would have done so by now.

Nobody can control the Internet. The Internet is just computers connected to the phone lines. Even if somebody could destroy the computers that make up the Internet backbone, we could switch to the old-fashioned bulletin board systems.

Since the Internet is getting more popular, it's going to become increasingly difficult for anybody to control the Internet. Too many businesses are depending on it now, and too many people are using it.

So don't worry. Don't assume that the future will be a continuation of the past. People tend to ignore the effect technology has on the future. Technology is bringing dramatic changes to human life. Even cell phone cameras are having a significant effect. Cell phone cameras helped expose the 7-7 bombing as another Zionist operation. Imagine if there were a cell phone cameras in 1963. They would have showed exactly what happened during the assassination of Kennedy.

The Internet, the cell phone cameras, and other technology is going to make it increasingly difficult for organized crime gangs. Even the FBI is having trouble committing crimes today.

Eric, August 6, AD 2008

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  It's certainly a compelling hypothesis and may very well be true.  Many wives have killed their husbands. I have no reason to doubt it, or to doubt Gore Vidal's assertions that Jackie was Jewish.  After the assassination, when Jackie lived in New York City, her companion was one Maurice Tempelsman.

My only question would be how does one explain all the witnesses who were convinced they heard shots coming from the stockade fence behind the grassy knoll?  Many of them ran in that direction after the limo drove away.  Were they part of the conspiracy simply to throw off suspicion from Jackie?

Anyway, it's a great argument that Dr. Jones has advanced.  After everyone else has been named as a suspect, it finally comes down to Jackie.   M.O.G.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

That's a well-reasoned response by M.O.G.

An awful lot of witnesses were murdered. As regards those that ran towards the grassy knoll, would you run directly towards where you thought a madman with a high-velocity hunter's rifle, who had just shot President Kennedy, was positioned? I don't think so, because I think that the initial reaction would be fear, not revenge. So I would suggest that those particular people were running AWAY from the direction in which they had heard the shot.

I do not know where those witnesses who said that the gunshot was from the repository building were themselves positioned, but sound would certainly reflect from the grass bank and off the wooden fence and buildings. And, with all that panic and confusion, memory and imagination often quickly become intertwined. NTJ

"In that clip, you can clearly see an orange mussel flash coming out of JFK's head followed by his brains. If a rifle-round had hit him, there wouldn't be an orange fire-flash would there? Not unless it was an 'exploding' bullet."  Moonrat, abovetopsecret.com

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is suspicious: For the whole three months just prior to the JFK Murder, she leaves her husband to go on a "vacation" with her sister.

Wikipedia: "Shortly after [ August 9, 1963 ], Mrs. Kennedy received an invitation from her sister Lee to go on a Mediterranean cruise aboard Aristotle Onassis's luxury yacht. Despite concerns of the President's entourage over possible bad publicity it might bring, Jacqueline and her sister went on the cruise along with Franklin D. Roosevelt, Jr. and his wife. Upon her return, feeling reinvigorated, she made her first public appearance at the White House in the middle of November 1963 and decided to accompany her husband on an official pre re-election campaign visit to Texas."

" . . . . . .  he claimed he worked for the CIA from 1960 to 1969 and as the night went on I brought up the 911 issue. I would say he was about 80ish. He was silent and almost sheepish as I brought up inconsistencies in the official 911 story, so I changed the conversation about what he was doing in London and advice on decent restaurants. He quickly changed the subject to the JFK assasination and stated Jackie shot him with a small weapon that was hidden up her sleeve. He said she was a victim of MK-ULTRA the CIA mind-control and chemical interrogation program, and also that the best way to take JFK out 'was in full, plain view to dazzle the spectators' . . . . . ."    Kilgour, abovetopsecret.com

Kennedy's Ghost
A review of Robert Stone's Oswald's Ghost
by Rex Bradford
1 Feb 2008


Q. What do Santo Trafficante, Carlos Marcello, George de Mohrenschildt, John Martino, Silvia Odio, Loran Hall, Larry Howard, the House Assassinations Committee, G. Robert Blakey, John Newman, Silvia Duran, Jimmy Hoffa, and Frank Ragano have in common?

A. None of them were mentioned in "Oswald's Ghost"?

- Question posed on an email list by David Kaiser; Paul Hoch supplied the correct answer.

The film Oswald's Ghost, shown recently on PBS, takes as its subject not the JFK assassination per se, but rather the effect that the assassination and its aftermath had on the American psyche. This is indeed a subject worthy of a film; unfortunately this film is not worthy of the subject. Early on, historian Robert Dallek gives us the standard canard we have long heard: "People are comforted by the idea, I think, that human affairs are not the product of random events - there's some larger force at work here." While there is some truth in this statement, there is at least as much truth in its converse: that many people, particularly those with a stake in the system, are comforted by the idea that there are no hidden forces operating beyond what is portrayed on the 7 o'clock news - they adamantly refuse to believe in conspiracies. The film of course never ventures such a viewpoint.

Oswald's Ghost is a well-produced piece with excellent footage of Oswald and some of the events of the weekend of the assassination. But for a film about that event's aftermath, it is curiously devoid of history. The skimpy chronology literally stops with the Church Committee in the mid-1970s. In the constricted world of this film, the House Select Committee on Assassinations, the second major federal investigation, apparently never occurred, and thus never issued its finding of a "probable" conspiracy in the case. Neither did the Assassination Records Review Board declassify millions of formerly-secret pages, including many shockers which never quite made the New York Times.

Of course, an 80 minute film about an event which has consumed America for more than four decades obviously must of necessity give short shrift to a great deal. Especially if it is filled with talking heads summarizing grand messages rather than dealing in the relevant facts and stories.

The choice of talking heads is itself problematic. Mark Lane's appearances are too often devoted to beaming about the success of his books and the ability of he and other authors to convince most Americans that there was a conspiracy. Josiah Thompson, the other "pro conspiracy" expert, comes off a bit better. But neither is portrayed explaining why someone should believe that the JFK assassination was bigger than just a loner named Lee Harvey Oswald. A young person with little background in the case, and this number grows with each passing day, could be forgiven for assuming that there were never any real reasons for disbelieving the Warren Commission, beyond an inability to face facts.

Spokespeople for the "other side" include Priscilla Johnson McMillan, author of Marina and Lee, and former newspaperman Hugh Aynesworth. It would be petty I suppose to mention that both of them had clandestine relationships with intelligence agencies in the past, CIA in McMillan's case [1] and FBI as well as CIA in Aynesworth's [2]. I do not mean to convey that this is sinister per se; simply that given the many documented failures of these agencies with respect to the JFK murder, it is not too much to expect an acknowledgment of these sources' potential biases. [3] Another of the talking heads, Edward Jay Epstein, has acknowledged that one of his books on the case was written in extensive consultation with James Angleton, former head of CIA CounterIntelligence and himself a "person of interest." [4] Perhaps this film is "art," not journalism, and thus exempt from such disclosures.

Except for a brief foray into government lying in the 1960s with relation particularly to Vietnam, the assumption permeating the film is that the government honestly investigated the assassination. But if all the research and the books and the forced document declassifications showed anything, it was that this assumption is meritless. Senator Richard Schweiker, giving the Warren Commission more of a pass than it deserved, said once that "the fatal mistake the Warren Commission made was not to use its own investigators, but instead to rely on the CIA and FBI personnel, which played directly into the hands of senior intelligence officials who directed the cover-up." [5]

There are occasional ventures into relevant facts of the assassination, and these are where Oswald's Ghost becomes most maddening. The film repeats Marina Oswald's allegation that her husband Lee once tried to shoot Richard Nixon, a story that the Warren Commission to its credit demolished. Due to its reliance on Marina for so much else, though, the Commission had dared not publicly call her a liar, preferring to write that the Nixon story was of "no probative value." [6]

The film spends an inordinate amount of time on the Garrison investigation, particularly two episodes: Garrison's idiotic foray into "coded numbers" tying Oswald to Ruby, and the more murky story of star witness Perry Russo's sodium pentathol session. These are fair game and might be expected in a longer documentary, but so much time is spent on them here that they are used merely to convey a larger message: the conspiracy people are crazy and have only zany theories and tainted witnesses. One would never know that Garrison was the one to make the connection between Oswald and the right-wing zealots like Guy Banister at 544 Camp Street, [7] or that Garrison had so many CIA assets on his radar that Agency officers began holding regular meetings to assess their risks and to discuss ways in which they could help Clay Shaw's defense team. [8]

The film only briefly mentions the single bullet theory, that implausible nigh impossible scenario required by the lone gunman solution, and that is probably for the best. But amidst such pronouncements as Edward Jay Epstein's that the "evidence was persuasive" there is nary a mention that the critics had within a few years demonstrated what the Commission's own experts had told it - that the "magic bullet" in evidence could not have done what the Commission said it did: causing seven wounds in two men, emerging with not even a nick and landing mysteriously on a hospital stretcher. [9]

This and other cogent analyses are what convinced so many Americans that the Warren Report was a fraud, not vague pronouncements that a little guy like Oswald couldn't have shot such a great man as Kennedy. Brilliant deconstruction and demolition of the Warren Report is what is in the best of the books which Stone shows in one graphic scene swirling down, down, down into a vortex - perhaps wishing that they could all just be flushed down the toilet, and we could then get off the can and get on with American optimism.

But instead of inconvenient facts and problems with the lone gunman scenario, of which there are too many to fit into a documentary ten times the length of Stone's, the film delivers homilies many of us have heard before. In the last thirty minutes, the gears shift into a decidedly anti-conspiracy diatribe. Aynesworth repeats the "Lassie defense," whereby Ruby, a man who even the Warren Commission acknowledged "frequently resorted to violence," [10] wouldn't have left his dog in the car if he had been planning to shoot Oswald. Priscilla Johnson McMillan reminds us that Oswald the loner "didn't do anything with anybody" and repeats the story of his leaving his wedding ring in a teacup for Marina the morning of the assassination. Epstein adds that "not a shred has come out that would indicate what this conspiracy was. After forty years, none of the theories pan out." Norman Mailer summarizes that "the internal evidence (of conspiracy) just wasn't there."

Given the other Stone's (Oliver) contention that plans to withdraw from Vietnam became a motive for JFK's murder, Robert Dallek's statement that "he (Lyndon Johnson) needs to show the Soviets, the Chinese Communists, the Cuban Communists, that he's tough - and one place where he sees he can do this...is Vietnam" caught my eye. But little more was said on Vietnam, definitely no acknowledgment that the declassifications following the first Stone's movie finally proved that Kennedy was indeed planning a full withdrawal from Vietnam, and added weight to the thesis that Kennedy was pursuing this objective despite being aware that the war was not going as rosy as military projections pretended it was. [11]

For once, I find myself in agreement with Max Holland, who writes: "Stone's premise [that the truth of the assassination is distinct from its effect on American society] is not a premise at all, but a contemporary conceit. The impact of the assassination cannot be discerned, much less presented, if one cannot tell the difference between the truth-seekers and the poseurs.....The story of the aftermath depends wholeheartedly on a correct reading of the assassination, which happened only one way, after all, regardless of the number of possible scenarios." [12]

Of course, Stone's film does have a point of view on the assassination, plainly obvious in the last third of the film. Stone was even less reticent in an interview where he made note of the "conspiratorialists" and then stated that the reason "I made this film is that I wanted to understand why so many people whom I love and respect, whom I have great admiration for, who are brilliant people, have come to a conclusion about the assassination that I find completely illogical and wrong." [13]

Fittingly, a film which pretends that conspiracy theories are just that - theories, devoid of substance - ends with Norman Mailer extensively theorizing about Oswald's motivation for killing Kennedy. Excerpts: "Oswald came to the conclusion that he could bring this off...if he assassinated Kennedy and got away with it, then he could have an inner power that no one could ever come near...he was quite articulate, he would have one of the greatest trials in American history...he would explain his political ideas, and he would become world famous...One could only imagine the terror, the excitement, and the inspiration...That there were conspiracies being contemplated, attempted, even attempted on that day, I'm perfectly willing to accept. But the conclusions I came to were for me rational ones, because he had a motive for doing it, because he was capable of doing it, because he wanted to do it."

Mailer was apparently willing to believe that conspiracies were being "attempted on that day," during which time Oswald the lone nut killed JFK. Perhaps the snipers on the Grassy Knoll, armed with Secret Service badges but having no knowledge of Oswald, missed due to insufficient "inspiration?"

For those who missed the first four decades of debate, it's worth pointing out:

    * "he had a motive for doing it" - Mailer's motive (i.e., a great trial to explain his political views) is singularly devoid of evidence. When actually put in front of the world's cameras, Oswald protested: "I'm a patsy." The Warren Commission, for what it's worth, was unable to "ascribe to him any one motive or group of motives." [14]
    * "he was capable of doing it" - Oswald was at best a mediocre marksman and badly out of practice; the rifle was lousy and had a mis-aligned scope. Top Army marksmen didn't duplicate his feat during tests. [15]
    * "he wanted to do it" - By all accounts Oswald liked Kennedy. [16]

Mailer was a gifted novelist, and perhaps far better than I at seeing into the hearts of men and determining their motives. But it remains true that the entire Mailer scenario is speculation devoid of evidence; i.e., a theory. As is so often true in this case, the pot calls the kettle black.

Which is why the evidence matters, and despite the hard work of the Warren Commissioners and staff, their efforts mainly succeeded in proving that Oswald could not have done it alone. And given that, the whole scenario of Oswald the malcontent unattached nobody falls to pieces. If Oswald was truly a loner, and two or more people fired at Kennedy that day, then logic indicates he didn't even participate in the crime at all.

The truth, of course, is far more complex and strange than the film or this essay can begin to convey. A fuller, more honest approach to the assassination would have to deal with the inconvenient facts and questions not even hinted at here. How did Oswald the loner so quickly teach himself Russian, one of the most difficult languages to learn? [17] Why did the Warren Commission treat the allegation that Oswald was an FBI informant as a "dirty rumor" which must be "wiped out insofar as it is possible to do so by this Commission"? [18] Why did the Commission fail to interview Jack Ruby until the Report was already being written, and then leave its own Ruby experts out of the interview? [19] Why did the woman who developed JFK's autopsy photographs disavow the official set in sworn testimony? [20] Why did those same photos fail a key authenticity test, which was then buried? [21] Why did Kennedy's brain disappear, along with tissue slides and apparently the original autopsy report? [22] Why was a Presidential phone recording from the morning after the assassination, in which Hoover and Johnson discussed an Oswald imposter in Mexico City who tied Oswald to a Soviet assassinations expert, purposefully erased? [23] Why do so many of those around Oswald - journalist Priscilla Johnson-McMillan, Oswald's "best friend" George DeMohrenschildt, Marina's host Ruth Paine - turn out to have personal or family relationships with the CIA? [24] Why does the former Chief Counsel of the HSCA now believe the CIA obstructed that investigation? [25] These questions and dozens more like them cannot be papered over by pronouncements that the "evidence was persuasive."

The answers to these and countless other questions are not in Stone's film. Some of the answers can be found in the books swirling down into the vortex of history. But many of them will remain unanswered forever. The JFK assassination has become too complex and storied for all but those who have been following it for years. It is all too likely to pass into history in just the manner Stone portrays - a big murder mystery that consumed America, but in reality had a simple explanation that the public didn't want to hear. And yet that easy-to-understand story has never rested easily, and perhaps it never will.

It is not Oswald's ghost that haunts us. It is Kennedy's. In the film, Priscilla Johnson-McMillan muses on what JFK would think about his own assassination: "Jack Kennedy would be curious who did it." I think he would be equally fascinated, and probably deeply saddened despite his great optimism, by the process by which America failed to solve the riddle of his death. For those who have looked, and there are many, the sorry story of the assassination's mis-investigation tells us more about our nation than the murder itself.

Kennedy's ghost hangs over us because his unsolved murder is a testament to the limits of democracy in our nation. An American leader is gunned down at the height of the Cold War in broad daylight, and men of "unimpeachable reputation" bless the answer handed to them by a few pieces of suspect evidence and by the almost immediate pronouncements of the feared FBI Director-for-life. A left-wing loner did the deed all by himself, in probably the most right-wing city in the nation. The Johnson presidency is legitimized. The Right is absolved of guilt. The Left is protected from recrimination via the "nut" part of "lone nut." Those who need to believe that this act tells them nothing about the darker aspects of their society can relax. Everybody wins.

Except those who desire truth. The process by which our society's finest arrived at this politically convenient solution to the Crime of the (Previous) Century is complex and not neatly summarized by the overused word "coverup." But the failure of the federal government to honestly investigate the assassination, and the failure of the media and historians to come to grips with it, leaves us with contradictory facts, unanswered questions, unproven theories, and films that pretend to be more intelligent than they are.

NOTES

[1] Soviet expert and former journalist Priscilla Johnson McMillan has admitted she applied to work for the CIA in 1952, though she later withdrew her application and was never hired. In her HSCA testimony, declassified in 1993 (see part 1 and part 2), she said that she had only two witting contacts with CIA officers, the latest in 1962. However, either her witting contacts were more extensive than admitted, or she was unwitting of the CIA status of some of those with whom she dealt (or perhaps "don't ask, don't tell" was the modus operandi). An 11 Dec 1962 CIA report of a meeting with Priscilla Johnson stated that she "had been an OO source" (OO: Office of Operations) and had been "selected as a likely candidate to write an article on Yevtushenko in a major U.S. magazine for our campaign." Another CIA document states that she was approved for debriefing under Project [**]DINOSAUR on 3 May 1963. Another contact report from among the many CIA files relating to Ms. Johnson dates from early 1964. See Peter Whitmey's Priscilla Johnson McMillan and the CIA for more information, though that was written in 1994 before many of the documents were available. Ms. Johnson was also involved with Marina Oswald in the unlikely finding of a bus ticket, months after Marina's possessions had been searched by the Dallas Police and the FBI, finally providing "proof" that Oswald had indeed traveled to Mexico City. Commissioner Russell found the story of the bus ticket discovery difficult to believe - see 5WH601-603.

[2] Declassified documents show that Dallas reporter Hugh Aynesworth was in contact with the Dallas CIA office and had on at least one occasion "offered his services to us." The files are chock full of Aynesworth informing to the FBI, particularly in regard to the Garrison investigation. See for example an account of lengthy FBI meeting with Aynesworth on 26 Apr 1967 re: Garrison and 5 May 1967 Domestic Intelligence Division note. See also a CIA 27 Dec 1967 account of a phone call in which Aynesworth is said to have offered to secure documents "extracted" from Garrison's files (by William Gurvich). Also of note is a message Aynesworth sent to George Christian at LBJ's White House, in which Aynesworth wrote that "My interest in informing government officials of each step along the way is because of my intimate knowledge of what Jim Garrison is planning." See Jim DiEugenio's Hugh Aynesworth: Refusing a Conspiracy is his Life's Work.

[3] Examples include CIA and FBI withholding of the anti-Castro murder plots, the FBI's destruction of a note from Oswald, leaving agent Hosty's name out of a retyped Oswald address book, misnaming Oswald's Minox "spy camera" in an inventory, CIA's determination to "wait out the Commission" on important matters, and much more, with some much more serious allegations left neither proven nor discredited. Both agencies were involved in burying knowledge of an Oswald imposter in Mexico City who tied Oswald in tapped calls to a Soviet assassinations expert. More generally, the FBI was quickly committed to the lone gunman scenario, as was the rest of government. A memo from Assistant Attorney General Nicholas Katzenbach sent to the White House on 25 Nov 1963 (largely drafted the day earlier, shortly after Oswald's murder) stated that "the public must be satisified that Oswald was the assassin; that he did not hhave confederates who are still at large; and that evidence was such that he would have been convicted at trial." Regardless of the ultimate truth of Dallas, the government could not have known these things to be true so early. See the Schweiker-Hart Report of the Church Committee, which "developed evidence which impeaches the process by which the intelligence agencies arrived at their own conclusions about the assassination, and by which they provided information to the Warren Commission."

[4] Epstein admitted in his book Deception that CounterIntelligence chief James Angleton and his associates were primary sources for his book Legend. Angleton's CI division had opened the 201 file on Oswald and kept it closely held in the Agency. For more on Angleton and the JFK assassination, see Lisa Pease's James Jesus Angleton and the Kennedy Assassination (Part 1 and Part 2).

[6] Marina first claimed that she had locked Oswald in the bathroom to keep him from going out to shoot Nixon, but the Warren Commission discovered that the bathroom door locked from the inside. A later variation had a pregnant Marina holding the door closed while Lee fought to get out, and in yet another version Marina and Lee struggled together in the bathroom. As if this wasn't enough, it turns out that Nixon wasn't even in Dallas on the day in question. The Warren Commission, which relied on Marina's accounts of other incidents, decided in this case that her story was of "no probative value." See WR189.

[8] In the April 1975 issue of True magazine, former CIA Executive Officer Victor Marchetti told of the CIA's intense interest in the Clay Shaw trial: "Marchetti was attending high-level staff conferences in early 1969 when Clay Shaw was being brought to trial by Jim Garrison. At these conferences, he said, it was determined to 'give help' in the trial. 'I sure as hell knew they didn't mean Garrison,' Marchetti said." A memo entitled Garrison Group Meeting No.1-20 of Sep 1967 states that "Rocca [head of Research and Analysis in CounterIntelligence] felt that Garrison would indeed obtain a conviction of Shaw for conspiring to assassinate President Kennedy." Various memos (see 104-10435-10034, 104-10435-10033, 104-10435-10030, 104-10412-10379, 104-10429-10069, and 104-10435-10001, among others) show a high level of interest and concern at the top levels of CIA in the Garrison investigation and the Shaw trial. The Justice Department took the extraordinary step of flying JFK autopsy doctor J. Thorton Boswell to New Orleans and having him read the day's testimony of Dr. Pierre Finck, who was "really lousing everything up," admitting among other things that he had been ordered not to dissect Kennedy's neck wound and trace the bullet path.

[9] The single bullet theory has been written about ad nauseum. Among many other problems with the single bullet theory, it remains true that CE 399, the "magic bullet", could not inflict the damage attributed to it and remain as unscathed as it is.

[11] With declassifications proving that Kennedy was implementing the first phase of a complete withdrawal from Vietnam at the time of his death, the historical debate has subtly shifted to a different question: Was Kennedy's withdrawal plan serious; i.e., would he have continued it in the face of deteriorating conditions in Vietnam, or changed course and done what Johnson did? The best short answer to this question is contained in James Galbraith's essay Exit Strategy. See the pages 1963 Vietnam Withdrawal Plans and Kennedy-Johnson Transition in Vietnam Policy for more information.

[17] Epstein describes Oswald's performance on a Russian language test on 25 Feb 1959 while in the Marines, and writes that "except under extraordinary circumstances, Oswald would have had to have begun his training while he was still in Japan.

[19] Jack Ruby's testimony to the Warren Commission is a chilling public record which has been available since late 1964, in volume 5 of the Warren Commission Hearings and Exhibits (5WH181). Ruby, arguably the most important witness the Commission had, was not interviewed until June 7, 1964, more than 6 months after the formation of the Commission and after it had already begun writing its Report. While the Commission delayed interviewing Ruby ostensibly to avoid interfering with his Texas murder trial, that trial ended on March 14. Warren himself told Ruby: "And I wish we had gotten here a little sooner after your trial was over, but I know you had other things on your mind, and we had other work, and it got to this late date." The Commission staff members who investigated Ruby, Leon Hubert and Burt Griffin, were incredibly not among those who interviewed Ruby in the Dallas County Jail: Earl Warren, Gerald Ford, J. Lee Rankin, Joseph Ball, and Arlen Specter (accompanied by Texas officials, Ruby's lawyer Joe Tonahill, and Elmer Moore of the Secret Service). Ruby begged to be taken back to Washington several times, but was rebuffed. Warren at one point replied to one of these requests: "No; it could not be done. It could not be done. There are a good many things involved in that, Mr. Ruby." Ruby told the Commission that "my life is in danger here," and expressed some reluctance to go on speaking, to which Warren responded: "I think I might have some reluctance if I was in your position, yes; I think I would. I think I would figure it out very carefully as to whether it would endanger me or not." Ruby exhibited some erratic behavior during the interview, particularly his belief that Jews were in the process of being exterminated due to his actions (though there was a campaign to assign blame for the assassination to the Jews going on in right-wing circles). But most of his rambling testimony can be attributed to the position he found himself in: being interviewed in a place where he didn't feel safe ("Gentlemen, my life is in danger here."), unable to speak freely due to the large group which included people he didn't trust (including his lawyer as Ruby himself stated), and trying to provide hints to the deaf Commission while avoiding saying things that would incriminate himself regarding premeditated murder of Oswald (Ruby did subsequently win an appeal of his case). "Boys, I am in a tough spot, I tell you that," he said. Ruby's testimony is tragic and extremely telling regarding the Commission's determination not to find a conspiracy. Near the end of his three-hour interview, Ruby remarked that "...a whole new form of government is going to take over our country, and I know I won't live to see you another time." The latter half of this statement is fact - Ruby died of lung cancer in January of 1967 before his retrial, during a time when the Warren Commission's findings were being questioned in many quarters. As to whether a "whole new form of government" took over the country, the reader will have to be the judge. Perhaps Ruby had it backwards, and it was a new form of government which was lost when Kennedy was murdered. (the text of this footnote is lifted from my 2004 COPA talk entitled Lessons Learned from 40 Years of Coverup).

[20] ARRB Testimony of Saundra Kay Spencer of 5 Jun 1997. See the page entitled Autopsy Photos and X-Rays for more discussion of the problems related to these materials.

[21] The HSCA Photograph Panel's report in volume 6 contains a footnote which says the following: "Because the Department of Defense was unable to locate the camera and lens that were used to take these photographs, the panel was unable to engage in an analysis similar to the one undertaken with the backyard Oswald pictures that was designed to determine whether a particular camera in issue had been used to take the photographs that were the subject of inquiry." (p.226). But the Navy had indeed located the camera and supplied it to the HSCA (after some stonewalling). The problem was, as Chief Counsel Blakey wrote back to the Defense Dept., "After examining the camera and comparing its features with characteristics noted on the autopsy photographs, our photographic experts have determined that this camera, or at least the particular lens and shutter attached to it, could not have been used to take the autopsy pictures." No further research on this issue appears possible, unfortunately, because the camera is now missing and no records of the photographic panels' tests have been found. For the full story, with supporting documents, see an ARRB staff memo by Douglas Horne, entitled Unanswered Questions Raised by the HSCA's Analysis and Conclusions Regarding the Camera Identified by the Navy and the Department of Defense as the Camera Used at President Kennedy's Autopsy.

[22] The brain and other "#9" autopsy materials were handed over to Robert Kennedy under a probably illegal "transfer" on 26 Apr 1965. On 29 Oct 1966, all but the #9 materials, which went missing, were returned to the government under a "deed of gift." The #9 materials included the brain, tissue slides, the original plus copies of the autopsy report, and several other items including a broken casket handle. The National Archives oddly contains a second "original" autopsy report - see ARRB staffer Doug Horne's memo entitled Chain-of-Custody Discrepancy Re: Original Copy of President John F. Kennedy's Autopsy Protocol as well as an update. While many believe the brain was buried during JFK's reinterment in 1967, another possibility exists. In 1999 the National Archives released a set of documents relating to an event in early 1966, when the autopsy materials were under Robert Kennedy's control. The documents describe how, under RFK's direction, the casket used to transport JFK's body from Dallas was drilled with holes, weighted down with sand bags, banded with metal, flown out over the Atlantic, and dropped into 9000 feet of water. Was this really done to dispose of an empty casket? See Documents Relating to the Disposition of the Kennedy Cermonial Casket.

[23] See The Fourteen Minute Gap for my essays on this matter, the erased audio and a transcript which survived the erasure, a letter and memo from the LBJ Library confirming the erasure, and a short documentary by Tyler Weaver.

George DeMohrenschildt: HSCA Volume XII, p.209. In the manuscript found in DeMohrenschildt's possession upon his death, entitled "I am a Patsy! I am a Patsy!", DeMohrenschildt wrote: "...I went to see Mr. J. Walton Moore [CIA officer in the Domestic Contacts Division] to his office, in the same building I used to have my own office, Reserve Loan Life Building on Ervay Street, and asked him point blank. 'I met this young ex-marine, Lee Harvey Oswald, is it safe to associate with him?'. And Mr. Moore's answer was: 'He is OK. He is just a harmless lunatic.'".
Ruth Paine: Sylvia Hyde Hoke, Ruth Paine's sister, apparently began work at the CIA in 1954 under Air Force cover, and had a CIA Security File. In 1971 the Falls Church Virginia phone directory contained the listing: "Hoke Sylvia, Mrs. emp CIA r h523 Monticello Drive, (Fax Co)." See A.J. Weberman's web site at http://ajweberman.com/nodules2/nodulec11.htm for more on Sylvia Hoke. In 1968, Marina Oswald was asked by a grand jury why she cut off contact with Ruth Paine. Her answer: "I was advised by Secret Service not to be connected with her.....she was sympathizing with the CIA. She wrote letters over there and they told me for my own protection to stay away." See Marina Oswald Porter's New Orleans grand jury testimony, p.69.

[25] Near the end of the Assassination Record Review Board's term in the late 1990s, it came to light that a man named George Joannides had been case officer for the Cuban exile group DRE in 1962 and 1963. The DRE's members included New Orleans delegate Carlos Bringuier, who was involved in a fracas with Oswald in August 1963. In the immediate aftermath of the assassination, the DRE quickly began supplying news sources with information about Oswald. Joannides' name was familiar to HSCA Chief Counsel Blakey, since Joannides had been brought out of retirement to serve as CIA liason to that investigation. His prior role was not disclosed. When HSCA Chief Counsel Robert Blakey learned of this, he wrote in 2003: "...the Agency set up a process that could only have been designed to frustrate the ability of the committee in 1976-79 to obtain any information that might adversely affect the Agency. Many have told me that the culture of the Agency is one of prevarication and dissimulation and that you cannot trust it or its people. Period. End of story. I am now in that camp." Journalist Jefferson Morley has pursued the Joannides story and is currently in court trying to obtain Joannides' CIA records, which the Agency refuses to supply. For more on Joannides, see Jefferson Morley's Revelation 19.63.

Besides enduring the weekly shock treatments, Frances Farmer, who had been consigned back to Steilacoom at a court hearing at which she was not even present, now became the victim of a new operation, the CIA LSD experiments. It was recently revealed that she was the first person chosen to receive the LSD dosages. A Bronx Jew, Dr. Sidney Gottlieb, joined the CIA to direct the LSD program, which he personally operated from 1951-1956. Through Teddy Kollek, a Jewish terrorist who was a close friend of Allen Dulles, Gottlieb obtained Dulles' direct approval of the entire scheme. Kollek, presently mayor of Jerusalem, was at that time in this country illegally to raise money for the Jewish terrorist organization, Haganah. He lived in Manhattan in a rent-free apartment, above the Copacabana night club, provided by its Jewish owners. Kollek was the only non-official person invited to Allen Dulles' home for parties, and at one of these gatherings, he was introduced to Jim Angleton, later director of Special Operations for the CIA, who became a "Zionist" director of the CIA. Through this alliance, CIA funds were used to pay the entire budget of the Israeli Intelligence Service, while CIA agents all over the world were instructed that Israeli interests came first. They were directed to turn over all information on Arab economic and military operations to the Jews. With this inside information, which the Arabs themselves furnished to the CIA under an agreement set up by Allen Dulles, the Israelis were able to win each confrontation with the Arabs. The CIA also paid King Hussein one million dollars a year for his private spending on blondes, airplanes and fast cars, as his country, Jordan, was penniless. In return, Hussein furnished the CIA complete information on all conferences of the Arab leaders. It was in retaliation for these CIA operations that the Arabs formed the OPEC alliance and raised the price of their oil. Had we not gone out of our way to make enemies of the Arabs, we would still enjoy low prices for oil. Every dollar we spend at the gas pumps is a fine which we pay for helping the Israelis, but your friendly local newspaper is not going to give you this information.

Jury: CIA Involved in JFK Assassination

Not a single major newspaper nor any national news broadcast has ever reported that on Feb. 6, 1985, a jury in Miami concluded that the CIA was involved in the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.

This is remarkable, if only because the verdict came in a court case featuring two international celebrities: Water gate burglar E. Howard Hunt -- perhaps the most infamous CIA operative in history -- and his courtroom nemesis -- attorney Mark Lane. Lane's ground-break ing best-seller, Rush to Judgment, had convinced millions of readers there had been a conspiracy in the JFK assassination, the Warren Commission's claims notwithstanding.

Scattered news reports did mention Hunt had lost a libel case against The SPOTLIGHT. However, no media reported what the jury forewoman had told the press:

Mr. Lane was asking us to do something very difficult. He was asking us to believe John Kennedy had been killed by our own government. Yet when we examined the evidence closely, we were compelled to conclude that the CIA had indeed killed President Kennedy.

Until 1992, when Lane recounted the trial in Plausible Denial and put forth additional compelling evidence of CIA complicity in the crime, the only substantive news reports about the trial appeared in The SPOTLIGHT. In issue No. 7 for 1985 (Feb. 18), The SPOTLIGHT announced its victory, detailing the remarkable events that led to the trial.

The affair was set in motion on Aug. 14, 1978, when The SPOTLIGHT published an article by former CIA official Victor Marchetti who revealed the CIA intended to publicly "admit" Hunt had been involved in the JFK assassination, acting as a "rogue" agent without CIA sanction.

A top CIA liaison to anti-Castro Cuban exiles in the early 1960s, Hunt was unknown to the public until the Watergate scandal that toppled President Nixon in 1974 brought Hunt ill fame. Then, after Watergate, when the Rockefeller Commission investigated CIA misdeeds, two eccentric writers alleged Hunt was one of three "tramps" photographed in Dallas minutes after the JFK assassination.

Subsequent investigation refuted the "Hunt as tramp" theory. However, scandal sheets had hyped the story and many came to believe Hunt had a hand in Dallas.

In 1976, growing skepticism about the Warren Commission's claim that a "lone assassin" had killed JFK forced the House of Representatives to convene a new assassination inquiry.

In the midst of the House investigation, an unusual development occurred:

As Marchetti's SPOTLIGHT article reported, an in-house CIA memo, ostensibly written in 1966 -- some 12 years previously -- was leaked to congressional investigators.

The memo stated Hunt had been in Dallas on the day of the JFK assassination, and that CIA officials were concerned the agency would one day have to explain Hunt's presence there.

The SPOTLIGHT subsequently learned CIA Director Richard Helms and the CIA's chief of counterintelligence, James Angleton, had signed off on the memo.

Marchetti suggested that because the CIA perceived Hunt to be a villain in the public's eye as a consequence of Watergate, the CIA had decided to sacrifice Hunt and "admit" he had been involved in the assassination.

The CIA would claim Hunt was acting on his own and that the CIA, as an institution, had no part in the president's murder. This would satisfy public demand for a resolution of the JFK controversy and the CIA itself would be absolved. Hunt would be left to fend for himself.

The SPOTLIGHT felt the article served as warning to Hunt about CIA intentions and Hunt himself admitted the story seemed plausible. Yet, Hunt still filed suit against The SPOTLIGHT.

When the case went to trial in federal court in Miami, the jury found in Hunt's favor, ordering The SPOTLIGHT to pay Hunt $650,000 in damages. However, an error in the jury instructions resulted in the verdict being overturned. After the case was ordered for retrial, Lane stepped in for The SPOTLIGHT's defense.

The highlight of the trial was when Lane presented the jury the testimony of Marita Lorenz, an ex-CIA operative who had worked with Hunt in plots against Fidel Castro.

Miss Lorenz testified that on Nov. 21, 1963 -- the day prior to the JFK assassination -- she arrived in Dallas in a two-car caravan from Miami. Accompanying her were several CIA operatives, armed with telescopic rifles, including Frank Sturgis who (years later) participated with Hunt in the Watergate burglary.

She didn't know the purpose of the mission, but upon arrival, the travelers met with Hunt, who acted as their paymaster, and also Jack Ruby who, days later, killed the accused assassin, Lee Harvey Oswald.

Uncomfortable, sensing something "big, very big," was impending, she left Dallas that same day. Later Sturgis told her how big the mission had been: the assassination of President Kennedy.

The jury listened carefully to her testimony, already suspicious of Hunt after his performance under Lane's cross-examination. Lane pointed out inconsistencies in conflicting stories by Hunt over the years about where he had been on Nov. 22, 1963. However, Hunt insisted to the jury that he was in Washington, D.C. with his wife and three children that day.

Hunt's case collapsed when he was unable to explain, when questioned by Lane, why his teenage children had asked him if the rumors he was involved in the events in Dallas were true.

Obviously, if Hunt were in Washington on Nov. 22 he couldn't have been in Dallas.

Not surprisingly, the jury found in favor of The SPOTLIGHT. Yet, the major media said nothing about the stunning, historic revelations of this trial.

It was clearly the CIA's counterintelligence chief, James Angleton, who leaked the CIA memo placing Hunt in Dallas. In fact, Angleton's confidant, reporter Joe Trento (deposed by Lane in the Hunt case) has said -- based upon what Angleton told him -- that Hunt had been in Dallas and that it was Angleton who sent him there (Angleton's own denials notwithstanding). Three conclusions can be reached:

• The CIA had planned to throw Hunt to the wolves but evidently he and the CIA reached an accord since Angleton's loyal, longtime deputy, Newton Miler, was dispatched by the CIA to testify against The SPOTLIGHT in Hunt's defense;

• Because The SPOTLIGHT ex posed the intended CIA scheme to "admit" Hunt's complicity in the assassination, the operation was shelved; and,

• If there's anybody who knows what really happened in Dallas, it's Hunt.

James Jesus Angleton and the Kennedy Assassination

"f intelligence-gathering agencies are as necessary as I believe them to be, then they must repay our blind trust and acknowledge that there may always be moments in all secret organizations when tyranny manages to slip its leash.

"This was one of those occasions."1
By Lisa Pease

August 12, 1990, was a very big day for Susan Hendrickson. While looking at a cliff in South Dakota, she saw something no one else had noticed before. Where others had seen only a sheer wall of rock, she thought she saw something more special. In the wall of a cliff, she found the outline of a skeleton that proved to be of enormous importance. The skeleton this amateur paleontologist discovered now bears her name, Sue, in Chicago's Field Museum, and is the largest and most complete skeleton of a Tyrannosaurus rex ever found. From an outline, Sue helped reconstruct the past.

After a succession of ever more interesting file releases from the National Archives regarding the Kennedy assassination, it's time we started recognizing the outline of one of the biggest skeletons in our national closet, the outline of the Kennedy assassination conspiracy. Each new release fits into one cohesive picture. And no single figure is more prominent in this outline than the man who headed the CIA's counterintelligence unit for 25 years, James Jesus Angleton. It was in his realm that a secret, restricted file on a man named Lee Oswald was opened, long before the assassination. History professor and former intelligence analyst John Newman has deemed this curious item "the smoking file" because the lies related to it are so serious as to suggest the CIA had much to do with Oswald's activities just prior to the assassination of President Kennedy, something the CIA has consistently denied. What was the nature of that involvement and how far did it reach? One cannot answer that without examining the near omnipresence of Angleton in all matters surrounding the assassination. Over this two-part series, we will explore how Angleton and his associates are present at every twist and turn in this case, both before the assassination and after.

Background

James Jesus Angleton was the son of James Hugh Angleton, an NCR executive who had once participated in General Pershing's pursuit in Mexico of Pancho Villa, and Carmen Moreno, a Mexican woman. He grew up in Boise, Idaho and later Dayton, Ohio, where NCR was headquartered. At the age of fourteen, his family moved to Milan, Italy (where NCR manufactured cash registers). Angleton spent summers at British prep schools and Malvern College. He participated in international Boy Scout Jamboree events in Scotland, Hungary and Holland. Angleton biographer Tom Mangold indicates that when the Nazis took over the Boy Scouts in Germany, Angleton made friends with some anti-Nazi leaders and carried their letters back to the founder of the international Boy Scout movement in England. Both father and son would serve the OSS. Angleton's father was described by Max Corvo, a top OSS officer in Italy, as "ultra-conservative, a sympathizer with Fascist officials. He certainly was not unfriendly with the Fascists."2

When he reached college age, Angleton attended Yale, where Angleton first showed a pension for staying up all night. Insomnia was to plague him most of his life. Although many who knew him described him as "brilliant," Angleton's record at Yale was undistinguished; during his junior and senior years he received two F's and four D's, and ended up withdrawing from another class relating to his major, English. But Angleton managed to impress teachers with his mysteriousness, his apparent maturity, and his self-assurance.

Angleton took a serious interest in poetry and, with Reed Whittemore, co-edited the poetry magazine Furiouso, which included poems by e e cummings and Ezra Pound, among other notables. Because of his interest in this area, he was to be called by some the "Poet-Spy."

After graduating in the lowest 25% of his class, Angleton enrolled at Harvard Law School. According to Mangold, "Angleton's move to Harvard was not the consequence of any strong ambition to study law. Rather, like many young men at the time, he was putting his future on hold." During his Harvard period, Angleton met and married his wife, Cicely D'Autremont. The marriage took place a few weeks after Angleton had been drafted into the Army. Shortly thereafter, through the combined efforts of his OSS father, and his former Yale English professor Norman Pearson, then heading up the OSS Counterintelligence effort in London, Angleton was transferred to London to study Italian matters for X-2, the OSS counterintelligence component.

It was during this period that Angleton met Kim Philby, the man who would become every counterintelligence officer's nightmare. Philby rose to a position of great influence in the British intelligence service, until he was finally exposed as a Soviet agent and fled behind the Iron Curtain. Angleton was devastated by this, despite having been warned by Bill Harvey at an early time that Philby looked like a mole.

In October of 1944, Angleton was transferred to Rome as commanding officer of Special Counterintelligence Unit Z, a joint American-British detachment. Less than half a year later, Angleton was made the Chief of X-2 in Italy. He was the youngest X-2 chief across OSS. His staff included Raymond G. Rocca, who would loyally serve by his side until Angleton's ouster from the CIA in 1974.

While he was clearly an accomplished counterintelligence expert by this time, there was another aspect which deserves mention. In his book The Real Spy World, longtime CIA officer Miles Copeland describes, through a slightly fictionalized veil in which he calls Angleton by the false nickname "Mother," a different story. For background, SI, referenced within, was, according to Copeland, an OSS division which X-2 officers held in contempt. According to Copeland:

    In 1946, an X-2 officer known within the organization as "Mother" took a lot of information on Palestine from The New York Times; spooked it up a bit with fabricated details, places, and claims of supersecret sources; and sent it to the head of SI, Stephen Penrose, for appraisal. After studying it carefully, Penrose and his assistants decided that the material was "genuine," that its source must be very deep inside secret Zionist and Arab terrorist groups, and that arrangements should be made for developing the sources into a regular espionage network. Mother then negotiated with Penrose for a budget, meanwhile leading the SI officers through a maze of fake names, fake background reports, and the like, and finally established that SI would be willing to pay as much as $100,000 a year out of what was left of OSS funds. Mother then confessed that the whole thing was a hoax and that the information could have been acquired for 25 cents through the purchase of five issues of The New York Times.3

In other words, Angleton's activities, however successful, were not limited to acts of loyalty to his fellow intelligence compatriots, but could occasionally be directed to more personal, vindictive measures. Copeland paints this as a jolly escapade. But in his footnotes, he admits that Penrose, against whom this operation was conducted, suffered a near-breakdown as a result, and was transferred to less stressful jobs. "[Penrose] and various other top people in SI (with a few conspicuous exceptions, such as Richard Helms, who defected to X-2 and went on to become the CIA's director) were generally thought to be 'too Christ-like for the spy business,' as Mother put it."4 Copeland, by the way, was one of twenty-five OSS officers Angleton wanted to remember in his 1949 will. Others included Allen Dulles, "the operator, the patriot;" Richard Helms; and Ray Rocca.5

After the war, Angleton did not wish to return to his new wife, nor his son, born in his absence, and chose instead to remain in action in Europe. X-2 was folded into the Strategic Services Unit (SSU), ostensibly a War Department unit and a temporary holding place for the then defunct OSS.

Two years after the war, Angleton would return stateside to his wife and son to work for the amalgam of temporary intelligence agencies that would eventually become the CIA. There, he would achieve notoriety for his late hours, and for being, as his secretary Gloria Loomis related, "a terrible taskmaster."6

The SSU and other remaining intelligence units evolved over time into two separate pieces – the Office of Special Operations (OSO), and the Office of Policy Coordination (OPC). Richard Helms served with Angleton and Rocca in the OSO. Stewart Alsop, in his book The Center, the "Prudent Professionals," labeled the OSO people the "Prudent Professionals." Alsop called the OPC crowd the "Bold Easterners." The OPC included Frank Wisner, Richard Bissell, Edward Lansdale, Desmond Fitzgerald and Tracy Barnes.

In Italy, 1947, Angleton participated in an OSO operation given to a group called SPG, or Special Procedures Group, in which propaganda and other means were used to keep the Italians from voting any Communists into office.7 Other means included the Mafia. "Wild Bill" Donovan, founder of the OSS, helped release "Lucky" Luciano and other Mafia criminals from jail in New York so they could return to Italy and provide not only contacts, but if necessary, the strong-arm tactics needed to win the war against incipient Communism in Italy. Angleton's later reported contacts with the Mob may well stem back to this period.

One of the groups most interested in defeating the communists in Italy was, not surprisingly, the Vatican. Angleton both gave and received intelligence to and from the Vatican. Among Angleton's most famous agents in Italy was Mons Giovanni Montini. Montini would become famous in 1963 when he became Pope Paul VI.8 Angleton has been named as a source for funds which were used to defeat the Communists. In return, evidently, Angleton obtained access to the Ratlines the Vatican was using to move people out of Europe to safety abroad. Angleton and others from the State Department used the Ratlines to ferry Nazis to South America.9

The OPC crowd held enormous sway in the early days of the CIA, but that changed in the wake of the spectacular failure at the Bay of Pigs. Curiously, Richard Helms and Angleton both saw their careers rise by standing on the sidelines and keeping free of all dealings related to the Bay of Pigs.

Angleton made an interesting comment about the Bay of Pigs episode. He told the HSCA that before the Bay of Pigs, he had asked Bissell, "Do you have an escape hatch?" He asked Bissell most plainly, "In case the thing falls flat on its face is there someone who goes to Castro and says, 'you have won the battle. What is your price?'" Angleton explained to the HSCA that he was trying to say, "have you planned for the failure as much as planned for the success?" The implication was that this was Angleton's own modus operandi in such matters.10 We would do well to remember that statement in the context of the Kennedy assassination and cover-up.

During the period between the end of the war and the formation of the CIA, William "Wild Bill" Donovan, the establishment lawyer who created the OSS, lobbied long and hard for a single intelligence agency to pick up where the OSS had left off, running secret operations and gathering human intelligence or "humint" in new and creative ways. In the end, although Donovan would not be a part of it, the Central Intelligence Agency or CIA was ultimately formed through the National Security Act of 1947.

Before the CIA was created, many in Congress feared that the creation of a new intelligence agency would lead to a police state similar to the one they had just defeated in Germany, and refused to back Donovan's efforts. But the loudest protest came from J. Edgar Hoover, who feared a direct encroachment upon the FBI's turf. One could argue that the OSS people won because they made the better case. But there is another possibility here.

Angleton, Hoover and Blackmail

In Tony Summers' book about J. Edgar Hoover, Official and Confidential, Summers showed that Meyer Lansky, a top Mob figure, had blackmail power over Hoover through possession of photos that showed Hoover and his lifelong friend and close associate Clyde Tolson together sexually. In the paperback edition of the same book, Summers introduced another figure who evidently had possession of such photos: James Angleton. If Angleton had such photos, imagine how he could have used them to force the FBI's hand during the investigation of the Kennedy assassination.

Summers names two sources for this allegation: former OSS officer John Weitz, and the curious Gordon Novel. Weitz claimed he had been showed the picture by the host of a dinner party in the fifties. "It was not a good picture and was clearly taken from some distance away, but it showed two men apparently engaged in homosexual activity. The host said the men were Hoover and Tolson...." Summers added in the 1994 version, "Since first publication of this book, Weitz has revealed that his host was James Angleton."11

Novel's account is even more interesting. Novel said that Angleton had shown him some photos of Hoover and Tolson in 1967, when Novel was involved in New Orleans District Attorney Jim Garrison's case against Clay Shaw. "I asked him if they were fakes, " Novel recounted, "but he said they were real, that they'd been taken with a special lens. They looked authentic to me...." Novel's explanation of why Angleton showed him the pictures is even more interesting:

    I was pursuing a lawsuit against Garrison, which Hoover wanted me to drop but which my contacts in the Johnson administration and at CIA wanted me to pursue. I'd been told I would incur Hoover's wrath if I went ahead, but Angleton was demonstrating that Hoover was not invulnerable, that the Agency had enough power to make him come to heel. I had the impression that this was not the first time the sex pictures had been used. Angleton told me to go see Hoover and tell him I'd seen the sex photographs. Later, I went to the Mayflower Hotel and spoke to Hoover. He was with Tolson, sitting in the Rib Room. When I mentioned that I had seen the sex photographs, and that Angleton had sent me, Tolson nearly choked on his food."12

Now, Novel has been known to fell a few tall tales in his day. But he has on other occasions been forthcoming with interesting and sometimes self-incriminating material (such as his own participation in the Houma raid and the association between David Phillips and Guy Banister).13 Given Weitz's corroboration, and given Angleton's enormous power over many in high places, Novel's account rings true. Novel added that Angleton claimed the photos had been taken around 1946.14 During the 1945-1947 timeframe, Hoover was battling hard to prevent the creation of any other intelligence organization separate from the FBI. And during this period, Angleton was involved with the Mafia in the Italian campaign. It's certainly possible under such circumstances that Lansky or one of his associates may have shared the photos with Angleton. And the reverse case can also be considered.

Miles Copeland adds additional credibility to this scenario in his account of this period. "Penetration begins at home," Copeland has Angleton/"Mother" saying, "and if we can't find out what's going on in the offices where our future is being planned, we don't deserve to be in business."15 Copeland presented this scenario:

    There are several stories in the CIA's secret annals to explain how the dispute was settled, but although they "make better history," as Allen Dulles used to say, they are only half-truths and much less consistent with the ways of government than the true ones. Old-timers at the Agency swear that the anti-espionage people would almost certainly have won out had it not been for the fact that an Army colonel who had been assigned to the new management group charged with the job of organizing the new Agency suborned secretaries in the FBI, the State Department, and the Defense Department and organized them into an espionage network which proved not only the superiority of espionage over other forms of acquiring "humint" (i.e. intelligence on what specific human beings think and do in privacy), but the necessity for its being systemized and tightly controlled. The colonel was fired, as were the secretaries, but by that time General John Magruder, then head of the group that was organizing the CIA, had in his hands a strong argument for creating a professional espionage service and putting it under a single organization. Also, thanks to the secretaries and their Army spymaster, he had enough material to silence enemies of the new Agency—including even J. Edgar Hoover, since Magruder was among the very few top bureaucrats in Washington on whom Mr. Hoover didn't have material for retaliation.16

Is he saying what he appears to be saying? Copeland added, cryptically, "The success of the old SSU cadre (former OSS and future CIA officers) in perpetuating itself has been due in part to an extraordinary capacity for Byzantine intrigue...." And in a footnote to this phrase, Copeland explains, still somewhat cryptically, "This intrigue was mainly to keep 'The Hill' off its back." Copeland seems to be insinuating that more people than Hoover were blackmailed to ensure the creation and perpetuation of the CIA.

David Wise also lends credence to such a scenario with this episode. Thomas Braden, a CIA media operative was confronted by Dulles over a remark Braden had about one of Dulles' professional relationships. Wise recounted what followed:

    "You'd better watch out," [Allen] Dulles warned him. "Jimmy's got his eye on you." Braden said he drew the obvious conclusion: James Angleton had bugged his bedroom and was picking up pillow talk between himself and his wife, Joan. But Braden said he was only mildly surprised at the incident, because Angleton was known to have bugs all over town.17

Braden described how Angleton would enter Dulles's office "first thing in the morning" to report the take from the overnight taps:

    "He used to delight Allen with stories of what happened at people's dinner parties ... Jim used to come into Allen's office and Allen would say, 'How's the fishing? And Jim would say, 'Well, I got a few nibbles last night.' It was all done in the guise of fishing talk."18

More to the point, Braden was upset because "some senator or representative might say something that might be of use to the Agency. I didn't think that was right. I think Jim was amoral."19 It would not be beyond belief that Angleton routinely used information gathered through clearly illegal taps to blackmail people into supporting his efforts. No wonder some of his Agency associates feared him.

Indeed, just about everyone in the Agency who knew Angleton came to fear him and to avoid crossing his path. This extended from subordinates to some of the highest officials to serve the agency, including Allen Dulles and Richard Helms. Angleton was called "no-knock" because he had unprecedented access to senior agency officials. Said Braden,

    "He always came alone and had this aura of secrecy about him, something that made him stand out—even among other secretive CIA officers. In those days, there was a general CIA camaraderie, but Jim made himself exempt from this. He was a loner who worked alone."20

Angleton knew that knowledge was power, so not only would he go to extraordinary lengths to obtain such, he would also lord his knowledge over others, especially incoming CIA directors. Said one Angleton contemporary,

    "He would put each new director through the embarrassment of having to beg him to indoctrinate them in important CIA matters. Jim was enormously clever, he relished his bureaucratic power and was expert at using it. He was utterly contemptuous of the chain of command. He had a keen sense of what the traffic would bear in relation to his own interests. It worked like this: when a new director came in, Jim would stay in his own office out of sight. If a top staff meeting were requested, he simply wouldn't attend and would offer endless delays. He was a master at waiting to see the new director alone—on his own terms and with his own agenda."21

Angleton's most powerful patrons were Allen Dulles and Richard Helms. As biographer Tom Mangold described it,

    He was extended such trust by his supervisors that there was often a significant failure of executive control over his activities. The result was that his subsequent actions were performed without bureaucratic interference. The simple fact is that if Angleton wanted something done, it was done. He had the experience, the patronage, and the clout.22

It wasn't until William Colby, a longtime nemesis of Angleton's, became the Director of Central Intelligence (DCI) that Angleton's power was dimmed, and eventually extinguished. But it was a long time coming.

Angleton and the CIA

Before examining Angleton's relationship with Oswald, it would be useful to understand Angleton's relationship with the CIA. Angleton ran the Counterintelligence unit. The primary role of Counterintelligence is to protect agents from a foreign intelligence organization from uncovering CIA assets and operations. Another important role is the ability to disseminate disinformation to foreign intelligence services in an effort to create for them a false picture of reality, causing them to act in ways that may be ultimately against their own interests. In other words, Counterintelligence was a unit that conducted operations, not just research. For that reason, the CI staff resided inside the Directorate of Plans (DDP) and not on the analytical side of the agency.

In addition to owning counterintelligence, Angleton also had control over the FBI's relationship with the Agency (he owned the liaison relationship between FBI and CIA), and sole control of the Israeli desk, which included liaison with their intelligence service, the Mossad.

In the early days of the agency, units were given single-letter identifiers of (at least) A-D instead of names. Staff A later became Foreign Intelligence; Staff B became Operations; Staff C became Counterintelligence ; and Staff D, which dealt with NSA intercept material, among other more notorious activities, apparently was never called anything other than Staff D.23

From the agency's inception until 1954, Staff C was run by William Harvey, a former FBI man who was to one day be introduced to President Kennedy as "America's James Bond." During this same period, Staff A was run by Angleton.

After the publication of the Doolittle Report in 195424, Staff C, which then became simply Counterintelligence, was handed to Angleton. Harvey was given the coveted Berlin station, a vortex point for operations against the USSR.

CI/SIG and Oswald

Angleton's complete counterintelligence empire employed over 200 people. Inside this large group was a small handful of Angleton's most trusted and closed-mouthed associates, called the Special Investigations Group (SIG). According to Ann Egerter, in 1959, when Oswald defected to the Soviet Union, only "about four or five" people were part of SIG, which was headed by Birch D. O'Neal. SIG members included Ann Egerter, Newton "Scotty" Miler, and very few others. Miler was, as of 1955, "either the Deputy or one of the principle officers with O'Neal," according to Angleton.25 O'Neal, Egerter and Miler all play interesting roles in this case.

SIG is all-important in the case of the Kennedy assassination because, for whatever reason, SIG held a 201 file on Lee Oswald prior to the assassination. Both the Church Committee and HSCA investigators fixated quickly on this point, because it made no sense under the CIA's scenario of their relationship (or, as they professed, non-relationship) with Oswald. What did SIG really do, and why would Oswald's file have been there? Why wasn't it opened when this ex-Marine (who had knowledge of the CIA's top secret U-2 program) defected in 1959, telling embassy personnel he might have something of special interest to share with the Soviets? Why didn't that set off alarm bells all over the place? Why was a 201 file on Oswald not opened for another year after that event? And why, when he returned to the States, did the CIA not debrief him? Or did they? These questions and more were adequately raised, to the HSCA's credit, but not adequately answered by CIA.

Let's start with the first issue. What did SIG do? Angleton described the primary task of SIG to the Church committee in this fashion:

    The primary task was the penetration of the Agency and the government and historical penetration cases are recruitment of U.S. officials in positions, code clerks. It had a very tight filing system of its own, and it was the only component in counterintelligence that had access to the security files and the personnel maintained by the Office of Security.26

The Office of Security's primary role was to protect the CIA from harm. This involves monitoring the CIA's own employees and assets to ensure that no one leaks data about the CIA, or betrays the CIA in any way. Because of the nature of what was done there, Office of Security files were the most closely guarded in the Agency. It is significant, therefore, that Angleton's CI/SIG group had access to these files. It is also significant that the Office of Security also had a file on Oswald, and was running an operation against the FPCC at the time Oswald was attaching himself visibly to that organization.

To the HSCA, Angleton gave a slightly enlarged definition:

    ...it had many duties that had to do with other categories of sensitive cases involving Americans and other things which were not being handled by anybody else or just falling between the stools and so on.27

Asked whether SIG's charter would elucidate its operational mandate, Angleton replied,

    It would probably be in fairly camoflauged terms, yes. It was not a unit, however, whose duties were in other words, explained to people. I mean, in training school and do on it was very much fuzzed over if anyone was laying out the CI staff.28

According to Angleton's close associate Raymond G. Rocca, SIG

    ...was set up to handle especially sensitive cases in the area of security or personnel and in particular, cases involving security of personnel who were also of operational interest, as operators.

    In other words, it was an interface with the Office of Security.29

When asked what would cause CI/SIG to open a 201 file on someone, Rocca gave this answer:

    I would imagine that they would have had that occasion whenever a question arose that concerned people that came within the purview of the mission that I have described, namely, the penetration of our operations or the advancement of our particular interests with respect to the security of those operations.... I mean, there were many sensitive areas that involved aspects, that involved sources and access to materials that were of higher classification than what you have shown me.30

When the conversation is brought around to Oswald in particular, Rocca's answer is even more interesting:

    Rocca: Let me go back and open a little parenthesis about this. What I regard now, in the light of what you said, is probably a too narrow view of what SIG was interested in.

    They were also concerned with Americans as a security threat in a community-wide sense, and they dealt with FBI cases, with the Office of Security cases, and with other cases on the same level, as they dealt with our own, basically....It would be with respect to where and what had happened to DDP materials with respect to a defection in any of these places.

    Goldsmith: Again, though, Oswald had nothing to do with the DDP at this time, at least apparently.

    Rocca: I'm not saying that. You said it. [Emphasis added.]31

Rocca's answer hangs out there, teasing us with ambiguity. Did Oswald have something to do with the Directorate of Plans, the DDP?

James Jesus Angleton and the Kennedy Assassination, Part II

    Bobby knows so little about us. One night he began to talk of muffled suspicions and stifled half-certainties, and said to me, "I had my doubts about a few fellows in your agency, but I don't anymore. I can trust John McCone and I asked him if they had killed my brother, and I asked him in a way that he couldn't lie to me, and he said he had looked into it and they hadn't.

    I told that story to Hugh. You know how rarely he laughs aloud. He actually struck his thigh. "Yes," he said, "McCone was just the man to ask."

    "What," I asked him, "would you have answered?"

    "I would have told Bobby that if the job was done properly, I would not be able to give a correct answer."

- From Norman Mailer's novel Harlot's Ghost.
The character of Hugh Montague (Harlot) is based on James Angleton
By Lisa Pease

The most consistently prominent players in the assassination saga continue to be James Jesus Angleton and his counterintelligence staff. They held a file on Oswald predating the assassination by at least three years. After the assassination, Angleton and his closest associate, Ray Rocca, served as the gateway between the Warren Commission and the CIA. If anyone was in a position to move Oswald around prior to the assassination and control the cover-up afterwards, it was Angleton.

The key associates of Angleton who show up frequently in the Oswald/JFK assassination story are Raymond G. "The Rock" Rocca, Ann Egerter, Scotty Miler, and Birch O'Neal. Rocca had been with Angleton since his OSS days in Italy, and would control the Warren Commission's relationship with the CIA. The latter three were members of the tiny CI/SIG unit. Egerter opened Oswald's 201 file under the name "Lee Henry Oswald." Scotty Miler controlled the watch list during the period when Oswald was placed on and taken off that list. Birch O'Neal controlled CI/SIG during the period of the building of Oswald's strange 201 file.

In Part I, we examined the likelihood that Oswald was directly involved with Angleton's counterintelligence unit in the CIA. When queried about this, Anne Goodpasture, who played a role in the Mexico City aspects of Oswald's story, did not deny a relationship between the two:

    Q: Have you had any reason to believe that...CI staff had any role in respect to Oswald prior to the assassination?

    A: I don't know.1

She was not asked if she had any knowledge, but if she had any "reason to believe." If she truly had no reason to believe this, her only possible response would have been "no." Her response indicates clearly that she does have some doubt about the matter, that she may indeed have had reason to believe this.

Another group that shows up in a few places in the assassination story is Army intelligence. It is worth noting that, during the interim between the ending of the OSS and the formation of the CIA, Angleton served as a major in the Army and helped organize Army Intelligence's efforts to track down German agents who were using false identity cards.2 Angleton was not one to lose a contact. Once made, he would continue to use contacts for life.

Other CIA people who show up often in this story include David Atlee Phillips of the Western Hemisphere division, who worked with Bill Harvey and later Des Fitzgerald on Cuban operations; Win Scott and his "right-hand man" Anne Goodpasture from the Mexico City station; John Whitten ("Scelso") of the Western Hemisphere, Division 3; Charlotte Bustos of the Mexico City desk at Headquarters; and Richard Helms and his deputy Thomas Karamessines, who play large roles in the pre- and post-assassination paper trail. We should also note that the entire Western Hemisphere was run by J. C. King, a man closely linked to Nelson Rockefeller. King himself had been involved in the CIA's assassination plots involving Castro and Trujillo.3

Interweaving Mexican Threads

There are strange connections that link these various players. Shortly before the assassination, Oswald's CI/SIG-held 201 file was transferred to the Mexico City Headquarters desk, responsible to John Whitten and supported by desk officer Charlotte Bustos. (Bustos is identified as Elsie Scaleti in the Lopez Report.4)

Bustos, Ann Egerter of Angleton's CI/SIG unit (the woman who opened the 201 file on "Lee Henry [sic] Oswald"), and Stephan Roll, Angleton's CI liaison to the SR (Soviet Russia) division, drafted the two now infamous communications that cause much suspicion of the CIA's involvement in the Kennedy assassination.5 Although the two communications were drafted at the same time, the cable to CIA in Mexico City describes Oswald as 5'10", 165 pounds, with light brown hair; whereas the teletype to the State Department, Navy and the FBI describes Oswald as being approximately 35 years old, 6' tall, with an athletic build and a receding hairline. Why would Angleton's people be collaborating with the Mexico City desk officer to mislead other agencies within the government unless they were in some measure trying to hide or protect Oswald's identity?

Immediately following the assassination, Bustos allegedly found a photo of Oswald from the CIA's Mexico City surveillance operations. Phil Agee, Joseph Burkholder Smith, Daniel Watson, and Joseph Piccolo, all CIA employees at some point, recalled hearing about—and in the latter two cases, actually viewing—such a photo. According to Agee, Bustos found the photo within an hour or two of the President's assassination. John Whitten said of Bustos that she had a "fantastic memory" and yet, like E. Howard Hunt, Bustos cannot recall what she was doing the day of the assassination.6 But Anne Goodpasture is the person who supplied the photo the CIA showed to the FBI as a possible picture of "Oswald". (Curiously, Goodpasture said in an unsworn ARRB interview that headquarters refused to send a photo of Oswald to Mexico City, and she was never sure why.7 Of course we know from Oswald's CIA file that indeed news clippings from his defection with his photo were present, so the CIA did have a photo of Oswald to share, and could also have easily obtained more had they asked the Navy or FBI.)

If Bustos had found a photo, another question is raised. Was Bustos' picture a true picture of Oswald? Or was it a picture of just another person who was not Oswald? If Bustos' picture was of Oswald, for the CIA to have supplied Goodpasture's "Mystery Man" photo in place of the real photo suggests a deliberate effort to deceive. In that case, Bustos' picture would have to have been "disappeared" by the agency, lest the evidence of their deception come to light. And if Bustos' picture was not Oswald but another man who looked like him, that also suggests a deliberate effort to deceive, as the picture was shown to at least two others within the CIA as evidence that Oswald had been in Mexico City, a point which has never been fully proven. To date, the CIA has taken the only safe road available, claiming (despite multiple accounts to the contrary) that no such picture was ever found.

Anne Goodpasture told Jeremy Gunn of the ARRB that she had worked at one point during her CIA career for James Angleton as a counterintelligence officer, and that it was the CI group that sent her to Mexico City in 1957.8 Asked to explain the difference between CE (counterespionage) and CI (counterintelligence), Goodpasture replied, "Counterespionage was the activity and Counterintelligence was the product."9

From Mexico, Goodpasture had worked on the case of Rudolph Abel,10 a Soviet agent working in New York City and curiously, living one apartment below famed author, FPCC activist and latter-day CIA apologist Norman Mailer.11 Angleton said of Goodpasture, "I personally have had very little dealings with her but my men had had a lot of dealings with her. She was always in on very sensitive cases."12 Goodpasture was also involved with Staff D, which was seriously involved with several coup attempts and assassination plots. To the ARRB, Goodpasture downplayed her involvement in Staff D, claiming that she was simply involved in duplicating and distributing materials.13 However, according to Angleton, Goodpasture was "very close" to Bill Harvey.14

Goodpasture maintained that in 1963 her sole duty was to the Mexico City station and Win Scott.15 Goodpasture tells us that Win Scott was "very, very conservative. He was from Alabama and I think he was a supporter of George Wallace."16

Goodpasture was later to receive a career achievement award on the recommendation of David Atlee Phillips, who cited her for having discovered Oswald at the Cuban embassy. Goodpasture was responsible for delivering the "deep snow"17 photo of the Mexico "Mystery Man". Significantly for our purposes, Goodpasture was also the liaison and in most cases, the sole point of contact, outside of Win Scott, David Phillips, and Scott's deputy, Alan White, to the other agencies of the U.S. government regarding the Mexico City station's CIA operations.18 And like too many others in this small cadre of CIA employees, Goodpasture has trouble remembering the moment of Kennedy's assassination:

    I think I heard about it from a phone call from our outside person on the phone tap operation, and I believe it was around lunchtime when there weren't too many people there and as they all filtered back in, there was office gossip, but I have tried to remember. I've heard so many people say I can remember, I was standing at the telephone or I was in the drugstore, or I was in church and I really don't remember who all were there at the time. Dave Phillips said that someone from the military attaché's office came up and told him about it and I don't remember that....I don't even remember him being in the station at that time.19

According to Eddie Lopez, Goodpasture, in addition to her duties for Scott, ran all of David Phillips' operations. When asked about Phillips' politics, Goodpasture tells a story that remains redacted, a fact especially disturbing when one considers the whole purpose of the ARRB was to release previously classified materials, not to add to the secrets. But from the nature of the testimony around the redacted portion, we can gather that she is giving us some indication that Phillips was not the liberal he painted himself to be. The redaction ends with Goodpasture saying,

    ...but there again, I hate for things like this to be published because there are 2,000 – over 2,000 books already been [sic] written. The thing that they are looking for is something of this type that they can put in the other book to come that will be just short of slander, and I feel that I shouldn't really comment on the personalities for that reason. I don't want my former co-workers or in Phillips' case, his family, to think that I'm trying to project him as a personality that was a show-off or something other than the very sincere wonderful man that they feel that he is....20

Phillips is the CIA man who most closely ties Angleton in the frequency of his appearance in the assassination story. Phillips appears to have been seen in the presence of Oswald by Antonio Veciana.21 And a "Mr. Phillips" who was running CIA operations against Cuba at a time when that was David Phillips' job was seen by Gordon Novel in the presence of Guy Banister and Sergio Arcacha Smith, who were themselves in turn seen with Oswald. Oswald even rented an office in Banister's building that had previously been rented by Sergio Arcacha Smith.22 When the HSCA investigators tracked down the many false "Castro did it" leads, they kept tracing back to assets run by Phillips.23 Dan Hardway, who had much documentation to support that allegation, told Gaeton Fonzi,

    I'm firmly convinced now that he ran the red herring, disinformation aspects of the plot. The thing that got him so nervous was when I started mentioning all the anti-Castro Cubans who were in reports filed with the FBI for the Warren Commission and every one of them had a tie I could trace back to him. That's what got him very upset. He knew the whole thing could unravel.24

Angleton was close friends with Win Scott and ran operations with him. Scott, in turn, was so close to Phillips that he recommended Phillips be his deputy in the Mexico City station while waiting for the next Deputy, Alan White, to arrive.25 Phillips, in turn, connects to JM/WAVE.26 JM/WAVE is another key component in the assassination story, because JM/WAVE trained assassins and participated in some of the plots against Castro. The line between Des FitzGerald's Special Affairs Staff (the replacement for Harvey's Task Force W) and the actions of JM/Wave is blurred. The weekend of the Kennedy assassination, John McCone's executive assistant Walt Elder saw Fitzgerald, and FitzGerald told Elder he had met with Rolando Cubela. He did not tell him that he had given him a poison pen to be used against Castro, nor that he had pretended to be an emissary of Bobby Kennedy's (Helms had told him not to worry, that he would approve that lie). No mention of assassination was made. But Elder had the distinct impression that FitzGerald was particularly upset that weekend. Evan Thomas, in his book The Very Best Men, painted the following scene:

    Elder was struck by FitzGerald's clear discomfort. "Des was normally imperturbable, but he was very disturbed about his involvement." The normally smooth operator was "shaking his head and wringing his hands. It was very uncharacteristic. That's why I remember it so clearly," Elder said in 1993. He thought FitzGerald was "distraught and overreacting."

Des Fitzgerald's wife told author Evan Thomas that the first and last time she ever saw her husband break down in tears was when Oswald was shot by Jack Ruby. Her husband had been upset from the moment of the assassination, and sat silently, watching the news along with millions of others around the globe. When Jack Ruby performed his deed, Fitzgerald began to cry, and said, somewhat cryptically, "Now we'll never know."27 Thomas evidently thinks this has something to do with Cubela. But does it? Cubela later turned out to be a double agent. But when was that known? Was the CIA trying to provoke Castro, knowing Cubela was his agent and planning a plot with him? Was the CIA engaging in a true assassination plot, or a deception they could later refer to in Castro-did-it scenarios?

Angleton's Back Channel?

If one was planning an assassination within CIA, wouldn't it make sense to take some precautions as to what was communicated, and through what channels? We saw in Part I of this article how Bill Harvey stressed, "never use the word 'assassination'" and that nothing should be put on paper. But some communications need to transpire nonetheless to pull an operation of that scale off. According to Anne Goodpasture, Angleton had a back channel to Mexico City, and possibly other stations as well:

    Q: Could you describe the different kinds of channels of communication that Mexico City had with CIA headquarters, and by that I mean cables, dispatches and that sort of thing, if you need—if Mexico City station needed to communicate with headquarters, what would be the different methods that could be done?

    A: Well, there would be cables, there would be dispatches, there would be intelligence reports, there would be attachments, I can't think of anything else.

    Q: For cable communications, was there more than one channel of cables used by CIA to go to headquarters?

    A: I can't really answer that but I think there was what they call back channel [sic], but I don't know the details of it. There again Mr. [Alan] White [, Scott's deputy in the Mexico City station] would be the more knowledgeable on that than I am or someone from communications.

    Q: Have you heard, for example, that CI may have had a back channel, not just in Mexico City but in other stations as well?

    A: Well, there's gossip that I think I have seen or have heard or I don't think I dreamed it, that they discussed things through the back channel, but I'm not sure what that was. You might check—Mr. Helms would be the person who would know.28

So Angleton appeared to have a private channel he could use with Scott and presumably other areas around the world to communicate traffic too sensitive to be seen even by other sworn CIA operatives. And Helms knew about these.

The Black Poper and "terrorism expert" on Agent Jones's show recently, a man named Levy, referred to Angelton in connection with the nefarious Vatican. He even called him "Jim Angelton," like they were best buddies (probably were). Had me jumping up and down, screaming "Angelton was Mossad, bitch!"

General Reinhard Gehlen and the OSS

by Craig Roberts

While the Operation Paperclip scientists were setting up shop in the U.S., General Reinhard Gehlen began re-establishing his presence in West Germany. His organization, the Gehlen Org, quickly regained control of the majority of his former agents inside the Iron Curtain, and with the help of many of his former staff, put them back to work. Though he agreed not to hire any former Gestapo, SS or SD members, he sought them out and put them on the payroll - the CIA's payroll - regardless of his promise. And the CIA did not stop him.

Among his recruits were Dr. Franz Six and Emil Augsburg. Six and Augsburg had been members of an SS mobile Death's Head killing squad that hunted down and killed Soviet Jews, intellectuals and partisans wherever they could be found. Six was known as a Streber, or Eager Beaver, for the enthusiastic manner in which he pursued his job. Gehlen also recruited the former Gestapo chiefs of Paris, France, and Kiel, Germany. Then, that not being enough, he hired Willi Krichbaum, the former senior Gestapo leader for southeastern Europe.

Gehlen was pleasantly surprised by what happened next. His new employer, the OSS, not only encouraged but financed an escape mechanism set up by Gehlen for former Nazis. The Gehlen Org established, with OSS help, "rat lines" to provide an underground escape network to be used by former war criminals to escape prosecution by German war crimes tribunals. By way of this organization, over 5,000 Nazis secretly made their way out of Europe to relocate around the globe.

Most went to South and Central America. The countries of choice were Argentina, Chile, Nicaragua and El Salvador. Within a few years after their arrival in these particular countries, the infamous right-wing government "death squads" made their first appearances. Of note in the expatriate community were such characters as Dr. Joseph Mengele, who specialized in crude genetic experiments on Jewish concentration camp inmates, and mass murderer Klaus Barbie, the infamous "Butcher of Lyons."

According to some sources, former OSS officer James Jesus Angleton, who later became CIA Chief of Intelligence, was the man responsible for providing the Nazis with new identities before their departure from the detainment camps. Angleton worked directly for Dulles.

To satisfy his new employers, Gehlen realized that he had to produce information that was of value to Washington. He also realized that for an intelligence organization to be of value, and to justify a large budget, it had to have an entity that was considered a deadly threat to spy on. He knew that the Americans had little knowledge concerning both the Russians as a military machine, and what activities were transpiring behind the Iron Curtain. The Red Menace would fit the requirement of the ominous threat nicely. All Gehlen had to do was paint as bleak a picture of the situation as he could, and continue creating reports that indicated that the scenario was continually deteriorating. The more bad news he gave Washington, the more money he would have to work with. He knew that in peacetime, the only way to justify a large intelligence organization was to make sure there was always "an enemy at the gates."

He began by feeding information to Dulles - and consequently to Truman - that appeared to show that the Russians were poised to attack the West. He reported that the Soviet forces in eastern Europe were comprised of 208 crack assault divisions, most of which were highspeed capable motorized rifle and tank divisions. Such figures showed that the Communists outnumbered the Western forces by a ratio of ten-to-one.

Then, in early 1947, he reported to the fledgling CIA that his agents had noted subtle changes in Soviet billeting and leave policies, and that troops were being recalled for some unspecified reason. He alluded that this could be the beginning of a preparation phase for the suspected invasion.

This was followed by Gehlen's prediction that the Russians would move quickly once all troops and equipment had been activated and put into position for attack. It wouldn't be long until there was a Soviet blitzkrieg.

In actual fact, Gehlen's information could not have been further from the truth. By 1946, the Red Army was an over-extended, underequipped, and exhausted force of combat-riddled units. Many of the battalions that had reached Berlin had done so on foot. There was not even sufficient motor transport to move one entire division without depriving another of its motorized assets. Almost half of the Red Army's transport was horse drawn. In addition to this, U.S. Army Intelligence had established that the majority of Soviet forces in Eastern Europe was bogged down in rebuilding the eastern zones, reorganizing security structures, and performing governmental administrative functions. According to the intelligence estimate, the Soviet ground and air forces would not be combat effective against the Western powers for at least the next decade.

The 10:1 Russian superiority figure that Gehlen referred to was unrealistic from the beginning. Gehlen well knew, as did Dulles and the other veteran OSS agents, that the Soviet divisional structure was far less in numerical manpower than its U.S. equivalent. A Soviet division was typically one third as strong as an American division. And its leadership was far less effective. Instead of being able to function in combat with flexibility by making on-the-spot field expedient decisions, the Soviet officers had to wait for orders from upper echelon before reacting to a change in the flow of battle. This fact in itself often caused the Soviets grievous losses, and even defeats, during land battles. The U.S. forces, on the other hand, encouraged battlefield decisions during the heat of conflict to be made at the lowest levels.

Still, the OSS - and the follow-on CIG (Central Intelligence Group which replaced the OSS) - chose to conveniently believe Gehlen. Over 70 % of the reports submitted to Washington on CIA stationary were simply Gehlen's words. According to a former CIA officer, "Gehlen's reports and analyses were sometimes simply retyped onto CIA stationary and presented to President Truman without further comment."

The results of such activities were exactly what the intelligence community - and the military - wanted. Truman ceased cutting the military budget; increased spending for weapons research, military equipment, aircraft and the space program; ordered an increase in the development and construction of nuclear weapons; and most importantly to the young CIA, began pumping millions of dollars into the "black" budget for covert operations. In the ten years that followed the war, the CIA consumed over $200 million dollars of funds that did not have to be accounted for.

According to Victor Marchetti, former chief analyst on Soviet military capabilities and author of The CIA and the Cult of Intelligence, "The agency loved Gehlen because he fed us what we wanted to hear. We used his stuff constantly, and we fed it to everybody else: the Pentagon; the White House; the newspapers. They loved it." Marchetti further explained, "Gehlen had to make his money by creating a threat that we were afraid of, so we would give him more money to tell us about it. In my opinion, the Gehlen organization provided nothing worthwhile for understanding or estimating Soviet military or political capabilities in Eastern Europe or anywhere else."

The final result of all these cloak-and-dagger exercises was a reputed Cold War that lasted for almost half a century, and cost American taxpayers alone over $8 trillion dollars.

Peacetime intelligence gathering had become big business - profitable to not only the growing intelligence organizations, but to the defense industry and the investors who financed both it and the government.
