Oswald could not have shot JFK · UK Column Radio

0:23
None. James Fitzer, thank you for
0:43
joining me in the trenches. My.
0:45
Great pleasure Jeremy, love your shows.
0:48
With regards James to JFK, it happened so long ago, why does
0:53
it matter? What was a pivotal turning point
0:56
in American history? Every president thereafter, and
0:59
we had a series, would not have occupied that office but for his
1:03
death. We had Lyndon Johnson, who was
1:07
the plot master behind the assassination, to accede to the
1:12
presidency. We had Richard Nixon who'd
1:16
actually been a participant in the ratification.
1:19
Meeting at the home of Clinton Murchison Senior the night
1:23
before. We had Gerald Ford, who was J
1:27
Edgar's man on the Warren Commission, keeping them
1:29
informed of exactly how developments were going.
1:33
Jimmy Carter's kind of a blip. We had George Herbert Walker
1:38
Bush sending a message to Ronald Reagan to let George do it.
1:42
With the attempted assassination and thereafter, American history
1:47
would have been substantially different but for the death of
1:52
JFK. It's such a big topic, I don't
1:55
even know where to start. So, James, you drive it.
1:58
Well, the day of the assassination, Jeremy, the
2:01
secret servants in the NBA conclude there have been three
2:04
shots fired from above and behind.
2:07
One, it hit JFK in the back about 5 1/2 inches below the
2:11
collar, just to the right of the spinal column.
2:14
The second, it hit John Connelly in the back.
2:17
And the third, it hit JFK in the back of the head, killing him.
2:22
They were accurate regarding those three shots.
2:26
However, none of them were fired by the alleged assassin, Lee
2:30
Oswald. In fact, that's remarkable how
2:33
easy it is to disprove the Warren Commission report built
2:37
on the three shot scenario. Here's acting Press Secretary
2:41
Malcolm Kildoff explained the president was dead.
2:45
It was a simple matter of a bullet right through the head
2:48
while pointing to his right forehead.
2:52
Obviously not a shot fired from above and behind.
2:57
Indeed, the very afternoon of the assassination, it was
3:01
massive live coverage by the networks, including some famous
3:06
newsmen of their time. For example, on the left here
3:09
you see Chip Huntley. Who are reporting two different
3:14
wounds. The one to the right tempo,
3:18
which was attributed to Admiral George Berkeley, the president's
3:21
personal physician. A second, A small.
3:27
Clean puncture wound to the throat, which Malcolm Perry, MD
3:32
during a press conference following Malcolm Kildef's
3:35
announcement of the president death had identified 3 times as
3:39
a wound of. Entry that the bullet was coming
3:42
at him, so that in the. Evening, when the story started
3:48
to trickle in that the Secret Service and the FBI had
3:51
identified the shots from above and behind Frank McGee, who has
3:56
nobody's. Fool said This is incongruous.
4:02
How can the man have been shot from in front, from behind, and
4:07
indeed. When we.
4:08
Analyze the source and the trajectories.
4:11
It turns out we already have here four shots to JFK.
4:16
The shot to the back, which was actually fired from the top of
4:19
the county records building. The shot to the back of the head
4:24
that would be fired from the Dow techs.
4:27
The shot to the throat that was fired from inside the Trimble
4:30
underpass and the shot to the right forehead fired from the
4:34
intersection of the Trimble underpass and the picket fence
4:38
to which. We shall return.
4:41
Indeed, a new book has now nailed a third shot to the head,
4:45
fired from the side. David W Mantic, MDPHD, who's the
4:52
world's leading expert on the medical evidence, has
4:56
identified, based upon the most meticulous, objective scientific
5:01
research, that Jack was actually hit three different times in the
5:06
head, in the back of the head, after the limousine had been
5:10
brought to a halt. Most Americans have no idea that
5:16
William Grier, the driver, pulled the limousine to the left
5:20
into a halt after Jack had been hit twice, once in the back.
5:26
That shot fired from the top of the county records building and
5:30
the shot to the throat fired from inside the Trimble
5:33
underpass. The drip because he was still
5:36
alive, the driver bought the limousine to the left and to a
5:39
halt. And he was hit three times in
5:43
the back of the head by that shot from the Dow tax.
5:47
And then Jackie, he slumped forward.
5:50
Jackie eased him back up, was looking him right in the face
5:53
when he was hit. That shot with the right temple
5:55
and near simultaneously a shot from the side of the head that
6:01
blew his brains out with such force that Officer Bobby Hargis
6:06
riding to the rear. There you can see him in the
6:11
photograph in the background, hit so hard with the debris he
6:14
initially thought he himself had been shot.
6:19
Meanwhile, they went out of the way to frame the Patsy Lee,
6:23
Harvey Oswalt. Lee was actually in the doorway
6:28
of the Book Depository when the JFK motorcade passed by.
6:32
They even made him remove his overshirt before doing mugshot
6:36
because of his semblance to the figure in the famous photograph.
6:40
The most important photograph taken during the assassination
6:45
by AP photographer James Idolson made it rather conspicuous.
6:51
It was the same person he had told Will Fritz, the homicide
6:56
detective investigating the case.
6:58
He'd been out front with Bill Shelley, one of his supervisors
7:01
in the Book Depository, which was not only correct, but
7:06
everything Lee told Fritz has turned out to be true.
7:10
So here's this most famous photograph, the shot that JFK's
7:14
throat actually passed through the windshield.
7:17
And if you look right here, whereas left ear would be
7:20
visible if his left ear were visible, you can see a small
7:24
wide spiral nebula with a dark hole in the center.
7:28
Which turns out to be the effect of firing of high velocity
7:32
weapon through a windshield. Which also interestingly makes
7:36
the sound of a firecracker as it passes through because many of
7:41
the witnesses said what they took to be the first shot
7:46
actually sounded like a firecracker.
7:49
Here you have the figure in the doorway turns out to be Lee
7:53
Oswald and will discover they did a fair amount of alteration
7:57
but couldn't conceal the fact. Here's a window in the Dow tech
8:02
streamed by the fire escape from which the anti Castro Cuban
8:06
fired three shots with the Manlicher Carcano, which was so
8:11
unreliable weapon known as the humanitarian rifle in World War
8:15
2 for never harming anyone on purpose.
8:18
He had two misses, one injuring a distant bystander by the name
8:23
of James Tank when it hit the curbing and a chunk of concrete
8:27
cut his cheek and the other the grown strip over the limousine.
8:32
But after the vehicle was brought to a halt, he managed to
8:35
hit Jack in the back of the head.
8:37
And notice Linden's Security Service is already reacting,
8:42
even though Jax is acting as though they have no idea what's
8:48
going on. Here then is the close up area
8:53
for the figure known as Doorman that turns out to be Lee Oswald.
8:58
Now, there are any number of peculiarities.
9:01
You can see here. For example, whereas Doorman's
9:06
left shoulder, it's missing. Why?
9:10
Because a figure known as Black Tie Man has been introduced and
9:14
is both in front of him and behind him at the same time,
9:17
which obviously is an optical impossibility.
9:21
Proof of alteration. We have a black man's head
9:25
introduced here, it will turn out to obscure the features of
9:29
the shirt that Norman was wearing.
9:32
Here we have a figure holding his hands up to protect his eyes
9:35
from the sun, but his face has been blacked out, referred to as
9:39
Black Hole Man Notice his shirt has been completely obfuscated
9:45
for reasons that will become a parahunt.
9:48
Indeed there, when Lee was arrested, he was wearing this
9:53
long sleeve, richly textured shirt, rather tattered and torn
9:57
he'd brought back from Russia. Marina has acknowledged that she
10:02
remembers laundering that shirt and of course it was so similar
10:08
to the shirt being worn by doorman.
10:11
In fact, we have the height, the weight, the bill, the shirt, the
10:15
T-shirt. So similar.
10:17
Richard Hook did brilliant work comparing the two figures.
10:21
He began with 7 or 8 similarities but wound up with
10:25
over 50 because of course, it actually is the same person.
10:29
The Dallas PD were so aware that this was Lee Oswald, in order to
10:35
obfuscate the resemblance to doorman, they had him remove his
10:40
outer shirt before they took his mug shot.
10:44
Meanwhile, Larry Revere has done a superposition on the faces
10:49
with another figure that the Warren Commission claimed was a
10:52
doorman, A fellow named Billy Lovelady, who was two or three
10:57
inches shorter than Lee and 15 to 20 lbs heavier, who himself
11:02
said he he couldn't imagine how they could be confused.
11:06
But it was a deliberate occupation on the part of the
11:09
Warren Commission staff because he was in the doorway.
11:13
As I'm going to explain, when you do a superposition you find
11:18
if you put the pupils of the eyes equal distant on an imposed
11:22
photograph taken from a similar dimensions.
11:25
That it's the same person. All the features will align.
11:29
That's Lee on the left. All the features align Billy on
11:34
the right. They do not.
11:36
The nose is wrong, the cheeks are wrong, the jaw is wrong
11:41
because it's not Billy Lovelady. Here's another where you can see
11:46
rather clearly it was Lee Oswald in the.
11:50
Doorway, which means he. Not only cannot have been the
11:54
lone demanded gunman, but he cannot have fired any of the
11:58
shots, whether it turned out to have been 10 or 12 all together.
12:03
Meanwhile, the other figure with his hands raised turns out to be
12:09
Billy Lovelady. Amazing.
12:13
And here you. Have Larry doing a
12:15
reconstruction. Billy was actually asked to come
12:18
in by the FBI on the 29th of February 1964, wearing the same
12:24
clothing he wore at the time of the assassination.
12:28
And he came in wearing a short sleeve red and white vertically
12:32
striped shirt and blue jeans, which of course is why they had
12:37
to black white it out so it wouldn't be obvious.
12:41
And there you have Lee similarly in the reddish brown shirt he
12:45
was wearing at the time. The government was so insistent
12:49
to prove that the Alton photograph had not been altered
12:54
when it obviously had been, that they went to some obscure
12:59
newspapers and created fake versions of their editions for
13:04
the assassination on Friday. Here you have the news
13:08
Palladium. Here's the outstanding extra
13:12
issue that day. Here, however, is the CI created
13:16
fake so that individuals like Robert Groton and Josiah
13:22
Thompson, who had infiltrated the JFK research movement in
13:27
order to mislead it, have insisted proved the photograph
13:33
could not have been altered. But clearly we've seen the
13:37
impossibilities that prove it was.
13:41
Meanwhile, in addition the frame Lee they created a series of
13:46
backyard photographs. Fritz showed Lee one of the
13:51
stage backyard photographs. Lee explained it was his face
13:56
pasted on someone else's body. And that he'd be able to prove
14:00
that he knew something about photography.
14:03
He had it exactly right, but didn't live long enough to
14:08
establish the fact. Jim Marrs and I did research on
14:13
the figure in the background. It turns out to have been Roscoe
14:17
White, who was ACIA guy who had joined the Dallas Police
14:22
Department. And was on the grassy Knoll at
14:25
the time of the assassination. A very bad dude.
14:30
So here's a famous photograph published on the cover of Life
14:34
magazine intended implicate Lee holding the man.
14:38
Like Caricano, he's alleged to abuse to shoot a president with
14:43
a revolver and a holster. He allegedly used to shoot
14:48
Officer JD Tippett and only two communist newspapers.
14:53
The worker in the Militant. Very interesting indeed because
14:57
a worker in the militant had an ethical communist philosophies.
15:02
And if they? Members of each were to
15:05
encounter one another. They'd break out in in fights,
15:08
fisticuffs, or even try to kill one another.
15:12
The fact that he had a revolver. Moreover, is very telling
15:17
because as Robert Grodin in his book The Search for Lee Harvey
15:20
Oswald explains, the first officer on the scene found 4
15:25
shell casings where Officer Tippett had been shot three
15:29
times in the chest and once in the in the head.
15:33
The right temple, coincidentally that had been ejected from
15:37
automatics. Two different manufacturers,
15:40
Western and Remington ran. He initialed the cartridges.
15:44
Subsequently, however, they had to make a replacement of the
15:50
cartridges ejected from automatic since Lee only had a
15:53
revolver with revolver cartridges, and now there were
15:57
three of one make and one of the other, none of which bore the
16:01
initials of the first officer on the scene and of course,
16:06
advancing the attempt to frame him.
16:09
Now Jack White was a legendary student of JFK and eventually
16:15
would become a masterful student not only of 911 but of the moon.
16:19
Landings realized that since the newspapers had known dimensions,
16:25
they functioned as an internal ruler.
16:28
To ascertain the height of the individual, which turned out to
16:31
be only about 5 foot 6 inches tall, too short to be leak, who
16:36
is around 5 foot 10, which. Occurred because either they use
16:41
a body double who is too short to be leak, or more likely in
16:46
fact I would assert certainly they introduced the newspapers a
16:51
bit too large when they fabricated the photographs.
16:56
There are actually four of them all together.
16:59
No2 handheld snapshots should match, but Oswald's face is an
17:04
exact match. They use the same face in the
17:08
four different poses which would have been an optical
17:12
impossibility. Now here we have the head of the
17:16
medical panel. Actually if talking for the HSCA
17:21
when they reinvestigated the assassination in 197778 and
17:27
actually tried to do the cover up better than Warren had done.
17:31
Quite embarrassing observing if the backyard photographs are
17:36
invalid, how they were produced? Was it far reaching questions in
17:40
the area of conspiracy for the events, a degree of technical
17:45
sophistication that it would almost necessarily raise a
17:49
possibility that someone conspired not only to kill a
17:52
president, but to make Oswald A passy, just as he declared?
17:59
And indeed, you can see when you study the photographs, they have
18:03
different chins even. And there's an insert line here
18:07
you can see between the chin, which is kind of a blocked chin,
18:11
unlike Lee's more tapered chin, and his lower lip, clearly
18:17
fabricated. Jim Marrs and I noticed the
18:21
backyard guy had a very odd lump on his wrist from a bone that
18:25
never healed properly. It's the same in both turns out
18:29
to we agreed have been Roscoe White and indeed it turns out
18:35
that a ghost image, this is a kind of silhouette that would be
18:39
used if you're going to frame the photographs was found at the
18:43
desk of a Dallas detective now. The Dallas PD appear to have
18:47
been given the assignment of framing Lee and they did not do
18:52
a very professional job of it. Meanwhile, Larry Rivera found a
18:57
photograph of Roscoe. Why?
19:00
And it superimposed it over the backyard photographs.
19:04
Roscoe had a far heftier build. He was thicker in the chest.
19:08
He was more muscular than Lee. So notice how Roscoe fills out
19:15
the image of the backyard man, the body double.
19:19
Lee does not, in fact. Look here, this shows how
19:24
slightly is and that it could not possibly have been Lee's
19:27
body in the backyard photographs, even though it was.
19:33
Lee's face. Meanwhile, the Secret Service
19:38
set up JFK for the hit. We actually have more than 15
19:42
indications agents were left behind at Love Field.
19:46
The limousines. Were in the wrong order.
19:49
Manhole covers were not welded, windows were left open, crowds
19:54
spilling into the street. The route was changed four days
19:58
earlier to bring the target into the kill zone and they were out
20:03
already cleaning up evidence at Parkland Hospital.
20:08
Stunning stuff. Thus, 2 Asians who would have in
20:12
the limousine were left behind in Love Field by Emery Rod
20:16
Birds. The agent in charge of
20:18
Presidential protection detail. Here's 1 Henry Rimka expressing
20:23
dismay at being called off. The motorcycle escort was
20:27
reduced to four, who instructed not to write forward to the rear
20:31
wheels of the presidential limousine.
20:34
One of them observed it was the damnedest formation he'd ever
20:38
seen. JF, KS Military aid.
20:41
Who? Normally sat between the driver
20:43
and the agent in charge was moved to the last vehicle along
20:48
with the present personal physician notice.
20:51
Had he been sitting between the driver, William Greer, and Roy
20:55
Kellerman, the agent in charge, he would have blocked the shot
20:59
that passed through the windshield and hit JFK in the
21:03
throat. There were more than 15
21:05
indications of Secret Service complacency and setting him up.
21:09
In addition to the agents we left behind at Love Field.
21:13
The manhole covers were not welded shot open, windows were
21:17
not covered. The crowd was allowed to spill
21:20
into the street. Look at this absolutely stunning
21:26
110 Military Intelligence unit was sort of stand down.
21:31
They would have been present for crowd control over the adamant
21:35
opposition of the commanding officer.
21:38
They wanted chaos of this car. Notice how easy it would have
21:44
been for an assassin with a handgun in the bus to have taken
21:49
out a president. A simple shot.
21:53
A total lack of security. Meanwhile, Governor Conley was
21:59
instrumental in making a change to the motorcade route on
22:02
November 18th, 4 days before the event.
22:06
Normally a motorcade route, once fixed, is never changed so a
22:11
Secret Service can check every building and screen its
22:14
occupants. This change of course brought
22:18
the President past the school Book Depository.
22:21
Building and into the kill zone, where Dealey Plaza was ideal for
22:26
an ambush. Most tellingly, the vehicles
22:31
were in an improper sequence. The presidential limousine was
22:35
placed first. Lower ranking dignitaries such
22:39
as the mayor and the vice president should have preceded
22:43
him. After all the gravel cheer for
22:46
the mayor and the vice president, but they really came
22:49
to see Jack and Jackie. If he's there right off the bat,
22:53
who's going to bother to stick around for these lower ranking
22:57
dignitaries? Reporters were moved to the.
23:00
Rear. And the present personal
23:03
position to the last car which would have been the worst
23:07
location just patient require emergency medical treatment and.
23:11
Let me add, the vehicles were all different makes and models
23:17
and collars, which enabled the permit traders to identify where
23:22
everyone was located in the motorcade at any time at
23:27
Parkland. For the more of the president
23:30
was taken, a Secret Service agent put a bucket and sponge
23:34
and became clean up the blood and brains from the limousine
23:37
notice that's already the destruction of evidence.
23:41
When onlookers noticed that through and through a hole in
23:44
the windshield, the vehicle was moved.
23:47
Now the agent assigned was a driver, the Secret Service
23:50
Cadillac, who confirmed to his neighbor that during the process
23:54
he found a hole bullet, evidently a shot to the back,
24:00
which only entered about as far as a second knuckle on your
24:03
little finger and worked its way out, took it inside and left it
24:07
on a stretcher at the hospital. Would it would later be used to
24:12
play the role of the magic bullet, but there was nothing
24:17
magic about it. Meanwhile, there's a Pruder
24:21
film. The whole movie was extensively
24:23
edited. Now charlatans like Josiah
24:27
Thompson and Robert Grodnik says that the Zebruner film is a
24:32
closest thing we have to absolute truth about the
24:35
assassination of John F Kennedy. But that's utter nonsense.
24:41
They've been extensive alterations.
24:43
Wounds have been covered up. They removed more frames from
24:47
the film that remain in the accident version of 487.
24:52
There ought to have been around 1000 they hit the JFK back of
24:57
the head was merged with a hit to the right temple.
25:01
I discovered it was visible in later frames such as 374 and
25:07
375. In other words, they had spent
25:10
so much time concealing the blowout of the back of the head
25:14
in early frames I suspected they might have overlooked.
25:18
You could see it in later with a blowout.
25:21
As you can see correspond to mantics area P from the altered
25:27
JMK X-rays, area P for patching. He detailed through the most
25:34
minute studies using optical densitometry and technique from
25:38
physics to identify an area that was created by exposure of
25:43
something far too dense to be human bone, which he identified
25:47
as area. P thus.
25:49
Superposition of frame 312. The white outline in 313 black
25:55
show a sharp forward move on in an 18th of a second before the
25:59
left and backward snap we see in the accident version of the
26:03
film. That's when the shot fired from
26:05
the back of the head where Jack slumped forward.
26:10
Jack eased him back up and then he was in the right temple when
26:14
frames 313 black outline and 316 white outline.
26:19
It's good that President was forced left and backward under
26:22
the impact of the fatal shot, but no one there actually
26:27
observed the Violet back into the left motion, which was
26:30
reduced by excising, removing an excessive number of frames.
26:36
Thus, and this is the most important scientific part of
26:40
Josiah Thompson's book 6 Seconds in Dallas, where in the
26:43
conclusion he disavows any proof of conspiracy.
26:47
And yet the evidence there is extensive and compelling, where
26:52
there's a normal motion of the president's head up until 312
26:56
when it was violently forward, and then, because they've merged
27:01
the two back and to the left in a dramatic fashion, conclusive
27:07
proof of conspiracy. Here we have then the exit
27:11
version of the subpootor. This was done using the
27:15
techniques of optical printing and special effects, which
27:19
allowed them to combine any foreground with any background.
27:22
You'll notice there's a break when the limousine is coming up.
27:26
Houston turning onto him all of a sudden, boom.
27:30
There you'll see the limousine notice the spectators in the
27:33
foreground are not reacting the way they have everywhere else on
27:37
the motorcade. And that's because that footage
27:41
was taken from earlier filming when the pilot car passed, not
27:45
when the presidential limousine was present.
27:48
Further proof of the fabrication of what we have today.
27:53
Watch. So here you have these are lead
27:57
motorcycle. This is not a motorcycle escort.
28:00
Then boom. There you have the motorcade.
28:03
They cut the turn from Houston onto M, it appears because the
28:06
driver swung out too widely. Now boom, we've got that back
28:12
into the left, which no one observed in Dealey Plaza that
28:16
day, none of the witnesses. I'll repeat again, look how
28:22
we're watching. And all of a sudden, boom, the
28:25
limousine is present from skipping the turn from Houston,
28:30
Ontario. They even took out this damn it
28:33
freeway sign which apparently had a bullet hole in it, and
28:37
they made it appear as though the limousine moved
28:39
continuously, when in fact it came to a dramatic halt which
28:45
endeared by my count at least 20 seconds.
28:49
So here you have it 312. Now, this is from the shot from
28:54
behind 313 where where it's supposed to have been hit.
28:59
You already have a blowout at the back of the head that we can
29:02
get sealed. They moved around this feature,
29:05
which is known as the BLOB to try to create the impression as
29:10
although a blowout in the front of the head.
29:13
But even Jackie during her testimony said, you know, from
29:17
the front he looked just fine, but she had a terrible time
29:21
holding his skull and brains together at the back of his
29:24
head. So we have ample proof of the
29:27
Pluter film fabrication, but Josiah Thompson and Robert
29:32
Grodin want to deny the evidence.
29:36
Clearly they have a role. Well, as mentioned, I thought it
29:40
might be visible later, and indeed at frame 370-4375 when
29:45
Jackie is climbing out on the back of the trunk for a chunk of
29:49
Jack's skull and. Brains.
29:51
That she held in her hand all the way to Parkland.
29:54
You can actually see the blowout.
29:56
You can actually see it here. You have it now.
30:00
This pink flap, that's like a skull extension that's still
30:05
connected to the skull. That's not the blowout.
30:07
It is here. Notice it's sort of bluish Gray.
30:11
Remember how often they refer to brain matter as Gray matter?
30:15
There you have it. It was my suspicion those who
30:20
were involved in reconstructing the whole movies of the
30:23
assassination, including the subruder, might have overlooked
30:26
frame class 313 through 316 that display the wound to the back of
30:31
the head. I've had this image of the
30:34
blowout in frame 374. So here you have 312 and later
30:41
frames and now you have the comparison to the blowout with
30:45
that pinky flap extension. Here you see Mantic who looking
30:50
at the autopsy X-ray thought it was too much contrast between
30:54
dark and right. I mean between, you know, 100 to
30:57
1000 times greater contrast. He performed these very minute
31:03
measurements using the technique of optical densitometry, which
31:07
were benefited by his myopia at the time, which enabled him make
31:12
these hundreds of measurements in a fine area.
31:15
P for patch and then when you compare here, you pee with a
31:19
blowout very similar except because some of JFK's hair
31:24
overlaps. Meanwhile, the wounds were
31:28
altered and covered on. Many witnesses observed the
31:31
blowout to the back of the head. 2 Parkland physician drew
31:36
diagrams of what it looked like. The mortician who prepared the
31:40
body described it and more. DHS CA absurdly attempted to
31:49
reconstitute the back of the head.
31:51
I'll explain what a monstrosity it was for them to do this.
31:58
Here you have witnesses Beverly Oliver, Phil Willis, Marilyn
32:02
Willis and Hoffman all in Dealey Plaza talking about the blood at
32:07
the back of the head. Then you have the doctors at
32:10
Parkland, McClellan, Peterson, Sal, your Carrico, Delaney,
32:16
Crenshaw, Jones, nurse Aubrey Bell describing the blood in the
32:20
back of the head, even Taryn Ward, the justice of the Peace.
32:25
And then we have Aubrey Wright, who is the ambulance driver.
32:29
He helped to wrap the body in sheets and place it into the
32:33
bronze ceremonial casket. And then from Bethesda, Frank
32:38
O'Neill, an MBA agent who is wrestling during the autopsy,
32:41
Gerald Custer, Paul O'Connor, Floyd Reamy.
32:45
I've spoken with these gentlemen about to blow it to the back of
32:48
the head. Here's a diagram approved by
32:51
Doctor McClellan. As you can see, it was a messy
32:55
wound. Doctor Charles Crenshaw drove
32:59
for me these two diagrams, one from the back and one from the
33:03
side. They indicate the enormity of
33:06
the wound. Here you have multiple doctors
33:10
at Parkland describing the extrusion of cerebellar as well
33:14
as cerebral brain tissue where the cerebellum is a compact part
33:19
of the brain above the brain stem.
33:21
They look very different. For example, cerebellar would be
33:26
sort of more like a granular tiny wormy like, where this
33:33
cerebellum would it be more hamburger like.
33:37
Thus, the partitioner prepared the body for burial.
33:40
Told investigators In addition to a large gaping hole in the
33:44
back of the head, there was a small wound in the right hand
33:48
pull and a wound to the back 5 to 6 inches below the shoulder
33:53
to the right of the spinal column.
33:55
Notice he believes it was patched, that they filled the
33:59
skull with plaster of Paris. That was a smaller wound in the
34:03
right temple. This was Crescent shaped,
34:05
clamped down. That's the the bone extension I
34:08
described still attached. There were small shrapnel wounds
34:12
in the face, back with wax. He discovered this when
34:15
embalming fluid flattened through.
34:17
David Mantic brilliantly inferred those little tiny
34:22
wounds were called by shards of glass when the bullet passed
34:25
through the windshield that impacted Jack in the face.
34:29
Wound in the back 5 to 6 inches, actually 5 1/2 inch, and below
34:33
the shoulder just to the right of the backbone.
34:36
Adrenaline gland and brain removed.
34:39
Other ruins removed and put back.
34:41
No swelling or discoloration to the face.
34:44
That means he died instantly. He was dead in Dealey Plaza.
34:50
Meanwhile, Get this When the House Select Committee on
34:55
Assassination reinvestigated the case in 7778, its medical panel
35:01
conclude the entry wound was actually 4 inches above the
35:05
entry wound previously specified at Bethesda.
35:10
It was depicted in diagrams, right, but not visible in
35:14
photographs. And it was a made-up, a wound to
35:17
the top of the head. They ignored the fact the actual
35:21
impact was more in the vicinity where I have the cursor.
35:25
Here they moved it up 4 inches. There's that skull flap I was
35:30
talking about, very clearly visible pink in three 74375.
35:36
Notice no hole in the top of the head in a photograph, only in
35:42
the diagrams. As we have the complete
35:45
absurdity, we have the bonafide wound that was seen in Parkland
35:50
and described by multiple physicians at Bethesda.
35:55
It was enlarged. Commander Humes, in charge of
35:59
the autopsy, took a cranial sod of the skull of JFK and enlarged
36:04
the wound to make it look as though something that could have
36:07
been caused by a shot from behind had the President been
36:10
leaning. Far forward over.
36:13
It is described in mathematical detail in the Bethesda autopsy
36:19
report. Unmistakable.
36:22
And nevertheless the medical panel for the HFCA sought to
36:27
reconstitute the back of the hand as though they could get
36:31
away with redoing the cover up. Outrageous.
36:37
Anyone with any doubts about conspiracy here?
36:40
And cover up this is. Cast iron proof Meanwhile, they
36:47
even used a body double in some of the autopsy photographs.
36:51
Dennis David There was the NCO responsible for logging parties
36:55
in and out of the morgue was ordered not to log in the body
36:59
of the major. His body was then used for some
37:03
of the autopsy photographs. The.
37:05
Throat. Wound was also documented as a
37:08
wound of entry. The Warren Report, of course,
37:13
covered it up via the magic bullet.
37:17
Meanwhile, here you have some autopsy photographs on the left
37:21
of the major not of JFK. Robert Grodin has promoted these
37:27
as though they were authentic. They.
37:30
Are not here you have again from the side the major.
37:35
Now, if you got millions of armed forces to choose between,
37:39
you're going to be able to find some figures who resemble almost
37:42
anyone. In this case, they found a major
37:45
who resembled JFK. But look here in this gift.
37:49
You can see it's not the same shape and size of cranium.
37:54
It's not JFK. In fact, Bobby.
37:59
And Jackie, talking about an open casket, said.
38:04
It. Didn't even look like Jack.
38:07
And that appears to have been because it made the substitution
38:11
and it was not. Meanwhile, here you have Malcolm
38:15
Perry on the right, was reporting during the Parkland
38:19
press conference about the shot to the throat and Kim Clark, the
38:23
director of neurosurgery at Parkland, who explained it.
38:27
You know the bullet through the head.
38:30
Meanwhile, Charles Crenshaw drew for me the wound to the throat
38:35
before a simple tracheostomy incision was made by Malcolm
38:39
Perry and after small clean puncture.
38:42
Wound Clearly a wound of antry. Now in some of the autopsy
38:47
photographs they enlarged the wound.
38:50
This was done by calling Bob Livingston, MD.
38:55
By Commander Humes asked what the throat wound would have
38:58
looked like had it been an accent wound instead of an
39:01
entry. This is the major.
39:04
In fact, Charles Crenshaw explained to me how he was the
39:07
last physician to observe the body when it was wrapped in
39:10
jeans and placed in the bronze ceremonial casket and he had
39:13
closed JF KS eyes. The 1970s.
39:19
Lifton argued the bright rayish white wound just seemed to pure
39:22
snake up the side of the president's head, which he
39:25
called the BLOB that was moving around.
39:28
Completely disagreed with the description of the head wound
39:31
given by the doctors and nurses in Parkland where the president
39:34
was taken. David is proven by the way that
39:38
the alleged magic bullet where when they discovered that one
39:42
shot had missed and injured a distant bystander.
39:45
Since they committed themselves to three and only three shots
39:48
having been fired, they had to account now for all the wounds
39:52
with only two bullets. They had Gerald Ford redescribe
39:55
the wound to the back initially in the report is uppermost back,
39:59
which was already an exaggeration to the base of the
40:03
back of the neck. To turn the throat wound from an
40:06
entry wound to an accident by claiming it entered the base of
40:09
the back of the neck and trajectory passed through the
40:12
body without hitting any Bony structures and exited the
40:15
throat. But it turns out to be
40:17
anatomically impossible. David W Mahantic, MDPHD was born
40:24
certified in radiation oncology. Took a CAT scan of a patient
40:28
with chest neck dimension similar to those at JFK
40:32
trajectory. It turned out to be anatomically
40:35
impossible because cervical vertebrae intervene.
40:40
Meanwhile, the limo. Stop.
40:41
Was edited out during the limo stop.
40:45
He was hit at least twice in the head.
40:48
Actually, it turns out three times.
40:51
Officer Baker has mounted his bike and ran to the grassy
40:54
Knoll. Officer Jackson rode up the
40:57
grassy Knoll until his bike fell over and proceeded on foot. 5
41:01
Secret Service agents surrounded the limo and one even climbed
41:06
in. Here you have Zapruder up on his
41:09
pedestal with his secretary, where Jack White observed that
41:13
the secretary seemed to be blocking the filming by
41:16
Zapruder, which may have been done by a camera on a tripod in
41:22
the pergola, which would explain why the limousine disappears.
41:26
If you're following it with a handheld camera, you'll keep it
41:29
centered, but notice how it virtually disappears at the
41:32
bottom. Here you have right?
41:35
About the time of the limo stop, Clint I'll is rushing forward.
41:39
Multiple events take place. Here's a comparison between the
41:43
Knicks and the Zapruder. Rather, here you have Clint
41:47
going. Up Jackie's climbing out.
41:50
This is where you can actually see the wound.
41:52
Jackie goes back in. In the Knicks, however, Jackie
41:57
and Glenn actually make physical contacts, not in the Zapruder.
42:02
So they're at the top of the Zapruder.
42:05
Contrast with the Knicks. This was a failure when the CIA
42:09
edited the film to coordinate them properly.
42:13
Meanwhile, during the limo stop, as I say, Officer Hargis
42:18
dismounted. His bike ran between the
42:20
limousines. Impossible.
42:21
Had they been in motion up to the grassy?
42:24
No, Officer Jackson. Motored his bike up the Knoll
42:27
until it fell over and proceeded on foot 5.
42:31
Surrounded the limousine and believe it or not, one of them
42:34
by the name of Glenn Bennett actually climbed into the
42:38
limousine. Here you can see some of the
42:41
marks on the grassy Knoll from Officer Jackson motoring up the
42:46
embankment. And here you have Officer Hargis
42:49
returning to his bike after everyone else had proceeded.
42:54
This is Gene Hill and Mary Mormon, And that's Beverly
42:57
Oliver. After the limousine is rushed
42:59
off to Parkland, even the Oklahoma City time picked up on
43:03
it. A motorcycle patrolman rode Bell
43:06
Mail up a railroad embankment, apparently in pursuit of the
43:10
assassin. But of course, there were
43:12
multiple. Larry Rivera has done brilliant
43:15
work on the JFK Horseman, the Motorcycle Patrolman, and how
43:20
all of this was faked and how it was removed from the Zabruder
43:24
film. Meanwhile, those are who have
43:27
best fingered LBJ. Marilyn Duncan Brown began an
43:31
affair with him in 48, boring his son Steven in 1950.
43:35
Billy Soestus and Barb McClellan also knew parties involved.
43:40
Roger Stone is laid out the case for LBJ having killed JFK and E
43:46
Howard Hunt explained the chain of command to his son Saint John
43:51
when he believed he was on his deathbed.
43:55
Here's Madeleine, Texas in the morning because her affair with
43:59
Lyndon. Was well known.
44:00
She was invited to many social occasions, including what turned
44:05
out to be the ratification meeting at the home of Glenn
44:07
Murchison Senior the night before.
44:11
J Edgar was there, Richard Nixon were there, HL Hunt was there.
44:17
When Lyndon showed up unexpectedly late in the
44:19
evening. They disappeared into a
44:21
boardroom for 15 or 20 minutes, and when it broke up he strode
44:26
over toward her, and she has told me she expected he was
44:31
going to whisper and sweep nothing in her ear.
44:33
Instead, he said in a hateful tone of voice, After tomorrow,
44:38
those Kennedy boys will never embarrass me again.
44:41
That's not a threat, that's a promise.
44:44
Even called her the following morning to repeat six weeks.
44:48
Later, during the rendezvous at the Driscoll Hotel on New Year's
44:53
Eve, Madeline. Confronted.
44:55
Linden with rumors. Rampant in Dallas at the time
44:59
that he'd been involved since no one stood the game.
45:02
More personally, Linden blew up at.
45:05
Her and told. Her The Oil Boys in the sea.
45:07
I had decided the Jack had to be taken out, but the plot
45:12
originated with him. The title.
45:15
Comes from the fact that when they'd awakened in the morning,
45:18
he'd open the windows and bellow out God I love Texas in the
45:23
morning. Meanwhile, Billy saw less as it
45:27
was a crony of Conley and Linton had conversation with Malcolm
45:32
Mac Wallace who was Linden's personal hit man who murdered a
45:37
dozen people for Linden, including one of his own
45:40
sisters, and Cliff Carter who is his chief administrative aide
45:45
and became convinced that they had been involved in the
45:48
assassination. Martin McClellan worked at home
45:53
of a very powerful attorney in Texas, where much of the
45:58
plotting for the assassination took place, and reported in his
46:02
book Blood, Money and Power, How LBJ killed JFK.
46:07
Roger Stone, of course, political gadfly, very
46:11
knowledgeable, published a book, The Man Who Killed Kennedy, The
46:15
Case. Against LBJ noting.
46:18
That Malcolm Mac Wallace fingerprints had been found in
46:22
the Book Depository on one of the boxes Use a set up the
46:26
Assassin's lair Rolling Stone bubbies the last convention of E
46:30
Howard Hahn, who was deeply involved with CIA, who has
46:35
admitted to having been in Dallas at the time, but said he
46:38
was not actively involved in the event.
46:41
Nevertheless, he knew a great deal about it.
46:44
He confided in his son Saint John.
46:47
A narrative that. Chained a command when he
46:50
believed he was on his deathbed, he said.
46:54
The order went from LBJ to Cord Meyer in charge of covert OPS
47:01
for CIA to. David Atlee Phillips, CIA
47:05
Western Hemisphere To William Harvey, who was in charge of CIA
47:11
assassination worldwide to David Sanchez Morales for Dallas.
47:17
It turns out that Mexico City trip was a fabrication.
47:21
Lee was alleged to have gone there to obtain a visa that
47:25
traveled to Cuba. He wasn't there, and photos and
47:29
audio recordings have proven it wasn't his voice, it wasn't his
47:33
image. 3 of the CIA assets involved in this were presidents
47:38
of Mexico. Lee's passport it.
47:40
Turns out was even stamped invalid for travel to Cuba.
47:46
Thus, Larry Rivera has done impeccable work on the Mexico
47:52
City state. And now the whole thing was
47:54
fabricated it. It's fascinating.
47:58
You can find it on his blog. The real Lee Oswald never set
48:03
foot in Mexico City in the fall of 1963.
48:07
Recent discoveries locating a passport he renewed on 24 June
48:11
1963, which was quietly suppressed by the FBI, have been
48:16
located and reported in both here.
48:19
This is the actual clean version of his passport, which was done
48:24
by the Dallas Police Department when they took all his personal
48:27
belongings from Beckley, where he had a rooming house.
48:31
And here. Cuba not valid for travel to
48:35
Cuba. Whole thing a total fraud.
48:38
Meanwhile, here's a figure that was supposed to be Lee Oswald in
48:43
Mexico City. Obviously not as though the
48:47
Commission couldn't get even the simplest facts straight.
48:52
Meanwhile, putting. The pieces together George HW
48:56
Bush and Edward Lansdale, were on the ground in Dealey Plaza
49:00
exposing the cover up. There's a range of possible
49:04
suspects. Noel Weinman was the first to
49:08
lay out the dimensions of the plot.
49:11
It was hatched in Los Angeles in 1960 at the DNC convention.
49:19
I may have been the first to identify George Herbert Walker
49:22
Bush standing here. This is from a series of
49:25
photographs published by Jesse Curry, Chief of Police of Dallas
49:29
at the time when he after he retired and became head of
49:33
security for 7-11 stores. They published Jesse Curry's JFK
49:37
assassination files in paperbacks only available at 711
49:42
stores here. A group of CIA agents, officials
49:47
at the corner of Houston and out paying their last respacs
49:51
included Grayson Lynch, Eddie Bale, not David Morales,
49:56
although he looks like him. This is a fellow named Bush
49:59
Panty, Ted Shackley, RIP Robertson, Tracy Barnes, Pain,
50:04
their last respects and backup Patsy's.
50:08
I'm convinced we had the three trams.
50:10
The first actual Charles Rogers, known as Franchi.
50:14
The second, Charles Harrelson, the father of the actor Woody
50:18
Harrelson. And the third Chauncey, Marvin
50:21
Holt, whom I met personally sometime mistaken for E Howard
50:26
Hunt, where Chauncey was instructed he was a forger, A
50:31
counterfeiter, an assassin, very talented guy who is instructed
50:37
by his handler, Philip Twombly, to prepare 15 sets of Secret
50:42
Service credentials for use in around Dealey Plaza.
50:46
He was directed to leave them in a red pickup truck that would be
50:50
found in the parking lot behind the grassy Knoll, which most
50:54
American do not know to this day was used by the Dallas Police
50:58
Department. When he arrived, the pickup
51:01
truck wasn't there. He wandered around Dealey Plaza
51:04
and told me he saw more hit men in Assassins and you'd find it a
51:08
soldiers a fortune convention when he returned the pickup
51:12
truck. Was there, so he left.
51:15
The documents in the appointed place he had been directed but
51:19
proceed with Harrelson and the man, Rogers, he knew as Richard
51:23
Montoya, to a boxcar at the railroad yard behind the parking
51:29
lot. That there'd be a boxcar that
51:31
would appear to be locked but would not be.
51:34
They got in and found it was loaded with explosives,
51:37
ammunition and weapons. They thought they were secure
51:41
when the train started to pull out, but the supervisor thought
51:45
something was wrong, directed the police who found them,
51:48
arrested them and walked them through Dealey Plaza.
51:51
Here you have a man with a very distinctive gait, distinctive
51:56
hand and ring. That is Edward Lansdale walking
52:00
past the three tramps. Had this been a proper
52:03
conducted, they would not have allowed civilians in the
52:06
vicinity. Meanwhile, we don't have Bush
52:09
there in front of the Book Depository, but Lansdale waiting
52:13
to report to Bush. Meanwhile, although you've heard
52:18
many stories about had there been a large scale conspiracy,
52:23
people would have talked and nobody talked.
52:26
It's absolutely false. This is from a single paragraph
52:30
in Noel Twyman's Bloody Trees and published in 1997.
52:35
Cars. Marcello bragged about it.
52:37
Jack would be killed, Santo Travagani the same.
52:40
Joseph Milltier explained how it would be done.
52:44
Johnny Rosselli told Jack Anderson Ruby was their man,
52:47
David Atlee Phillips said. Before he died, fringe elements
52:52
of USML might have been involved.
52:54
He knew better nothing fringe about it.
52:57
Madeleine Brown explained how Lyndon said he would be killed
53:01
before it happened. Marita Lorenz who'd actually
53:04
been a Paramora Fidel stated in deputation of Frank Sturgis told
53:10
him he and some anti Castro Cubans were going to be
53:13
involved. Chuck Hinsana in the book Double
53:17
Cross that his brother Sam Giancana had explained the mob
53:20
would be involved. Chauncey even did a radio
53:23
interview about it. Charles Harrelson explained he
53:26
had been involved. Jim Hicks said he was a
53:29
communication coordinator. Jack Ruby said this would never
53:33
have had and someone else such as Adlai Stevenson been the vice
53:38
president of the United States. Now when you consider the
53:43
alteration of the X-rays that there was a substitution of
53:47
another brain that is approved of him was massively edited.
53:51
The list of potential suspects has narrowed dramatically.
53:55
The KGB, for example. Could not have extended its
53:59
reach into Bethesda Naval Hospital to alter X-rays under
54:03
control of medical officers of the US Navy and Secret Service
54:07
anti Castro Cubans. Could not have substituted
54:11
another brain for the brain of JFK, the mob, the Mafia.
54:15
Could not have got a hold of the Zapruder film to undertake
54:19
alterations. Which means we're really reduced
54:22
rapidly to two alternatives. That was the ultimate black op.
54:27
The CI did it. Or that it was a covert coup
54:31
d'etat with Lyndon Johnson, the Joint Chiefs, the Intel
54:37
community, the military industrial complex all involved.
54:41
Which turns out to be the case if you can ever find a copy of
54:46
Bloody Trees and pick it up. The old Wyman next to David
54:51
Lifton's book. Best Evidence published
54:54
originally in 1980 about the medical evidence.
54:58
This book is the best on the politics of the early works he
55:03
wrote. I saw the most perfect
55:05
combination with the greatest probability of success, which
55:09
combines CIA military with Secret Service with Mafia with
55:13
LBJ, with J Edgar with LBJ and the conspiratorial group.
55:18
Hoover could have been relied upon to fall into line because
55:22
the mafia had compromised him. Crap.
55:26
That risk would seem acceptable to the plotters once they had
55:30
LBJ in their circle, but it actually worked.
55:33
The other way around. Thus when he talks about the
55:37
plotters, all the mafia had to do is get CIA involved, have the
55:42
CIA recruit Secret Service and LBJ.
55:44
It would have had a perfect conspiracy.
55:47
All LBJ had to do was recruit the CIA who would use the mafia
55:53
as needed and the Secret Service and he had a perfect conspiracy.
55:59
Hoover would fall in line after the fact when confirmed by LBJ
56:03
and the mafia with blackmail material they had on him.
56:06
No, he was in on it from the beginning.
56:09
In this scenario, right wing extremists, if involved at all,
56:14
would have provided money. That's a big picture, involves
56:18
distinguishing between the sponsors, the facilitators and
56:22
the mechanics or the shooters or supervisors and coordinators,
56:27
including George Herbert Walker Bush, who appears to have
56:31
overall command and Edward Lansdale, who appears to have
56:35
positioned the shooters and determine the sequence of shots.
56:39
As the sponsors included the CIA, Jack was threatening to
56:45
shatter the agency into 1000 pieces.
56:48
They had a hit man, the Joint Chiefs.
56:51
Jack had refused to invade Cuba contrary to the unanimous
56:56
recommendation, signed an above grand test ban treaty with the
56:59
Soviets contrary to the unanimous opposition, and that
57:04
was pulling American forces. Out of Vietnam.
57:08
Where they believed the war had to be taken a stand against the
57:11
expansion of international communists, they had a shooter,
57:17
the anti Castro Cubans falsely believed Jack had betrayed them
57:21
at the Bay of Pigs, which the CIA knew better.
57:24
But. Allowed them to entertain for
57:27
their own benefit. They had a shooter.
57:29
The Mafia was upset because they thought they had an agreement
57:33
with Joe Kennedy that if they helped Jack to become elected,
57:37
they didn't. Sure, Chicago went for Jack and
57:39
therefore Illinois to guarantee he become president, but when
57:45
Bobby became. Attorney General, he began.
57:47
Cracking down on organized crime with more indictments and
57:50
convictions than ever before in history.
57:52
They had a shooter these establishment surrounding the
57:56
Fed were upset because Jack. Believed it was absurd.
58:01
For the United. States to be.
58:03
Paying interest to a consortium of private banks for publishing
58:08
the currency of the United States, which it could be done
58:10
equally well by the Department of the Treasury for no interest
58:14
at all, he'd already done. That.
58:17
By publishing United States notes.
58:20
I remember as a young Marine Corps officer holding one in my
58:23
hand, it said United States note with a red embossed imprint
58:27
instead of Federal Reserve note green.
58:30
They had a shooter, the Texas oil.
58:33
Ban as Jack was contemplating cutting their oil depletion
58:37
allowance, a massive tax write off close at 25% on the ground
58:43
that oil was a finite resource and by publishing oil on the
58:47
ground they were putting themselves out of business.
58:50
They had a shooter. Israel was at loggerheads with
58:54
JFK because David Ben Gurion, the first Prime Minister and the
58:59
founder of Israel, wanted to develop nuclear weapons, which
59:04
Jack opposed in the belief. That it would.
59:06
Set off a nuclear arms race in the Middle East.
59:10
They had a shooter. And of course, Lyndon Johnson,
59:14
who wanted to become president of all the people, had his own.
59:17
So we actually had eight different sponsors, each of whom
59:22
had their own shooter, the facilitators, Linden of the
59:27
assassination, Edgar, the cover up where they appear to have
59:31
enlisted as project manager Allen Dulles, the former
59:36
director of the CIA, to put all the pieces together for the big
59:41
event that would take place in Dallas.
59:44
Here we have a book about it by David Talbot.
59:47
Some have thought all it should therefore be described as a
59:51
mastermind behind the assassination.
59:54
My own belief is that designation belongs to Linton.
59:59
The most important book published about his role by Phil
1:00:03
Nelson, LBJ, mastermind of the JFK assassination, where you
1:00:10
only have to read a few chapters.
1:00:13
And you'll understand how ruthless Linden was, but how
1:00:18
many strings he had both for good and for evil.
1:00:22
During a conversation with Madeline, she said to me how.
1:00:27
John Connolly. Couldn't even.
1:00:28
Describe Linden would take all the adjectives, and I said,
1:00:31
well, no Madeline. What he meant was Linden had no
1:00:34
many strengths for good but also for evil.
1:00:37
It would take every adjective in the dictionary.
1:00:41
Meanwhile the shooting looked more like this, the yellow, the
1:00:45
three shots from the Dow Tex that was fired by the anti
1:00:48
Castro Cuban shooter from the top of the county records
1:00:52
building. This was a shot to the back, a
1:00:55
second shot that would know where that was by the Texas
1:01:00
oilman shooter. We had shots to Connolly,
1:01:04
followed from the opposite side of the Book Depository by Lyndon
1:01:09
Johnson's Hitman. We had the.
1:01:12
Shot to the right temple that was fired by the mafia Hit man.
1:01:17
We had the shot to the throat from inside the triple underpass
1:01:21
by the Joint Chief. Hit man.
1:01:23
We had a shot fired by the CIA guy from the grassy Knoll where
1:01:28
he would have hit Jackie. They were under explicit
1:01:30
obstruction not to harm her. He pulled her shot at one up in
1:01:34
the grass and now we have the third shot to the head.
1:01:39
From the grassy Knoll. By hitman for Israel, David
1:01:43
Manik has identified So how did it all begin in Los Angeles in
1:01:49
1960 when JFK beat LBJ for the nomination, invited Stuart
1:01:57
Symington, Senator of Missouri, to be his running mate?
1:02:01
We gave him overnight to think about it.
1:02:04
Meanwhile, Bobby went by the LBJ suite, not believing Linden
1:02:10
would have the least interest, but to extend that pro forma
1:02:14
symbolic gesture of inviting him to run with Jack, and was
1:02:19
dumbfounded when he jumped on it.
1:02:22
He threatened to expose that Jack and Addison's disease
1:02:26
wasn't expected to live a long, healthy life.
1:02:29
That among his dalliances was one with a beautiful woman who
1:02:33
was a spy for East Germany, of which he had been informed by
1:02:38
Edgar. And that if he were not on the
1:02:40
ticket, that any legislative proposal sent down by the White
1:02:45
House would be dead on arrival because in his position as a
1:02:49
powerful Majority Leader, he'd bottle them hot.
1:02:52
Jack and Bobby were baffled. But when it had them boxed in
1:02:57
and they were forced to accede to his demand, the only case in
1:03:02
which Jack ever had to rescind a political decision.
1:03:06
When one of Linden's wealthy backers learned about this
1:03:10
development, he burst into the Johnson suite, cursing and
1:03:14
swearing because now LBJ would help JFK become president.
1:03:20
Bobby Baker took him into a bedroom and explained what they
1:03:24
had in mind. He came out all smiles, saying
1:03:29
he thought that was an excellent plan.
1:03:32
Bobby Baker would later declare it probably that JFK would not
1:03:37
live out his first term and that he would die of violent death.
1:03:42
Lyndon would send Cliff Carter, his chief administrative aide,
1:03:47
down to Dallas to make sure all the arrangements were in place
1:03:52
for the assassination. For those who want more, check
1:03:57
out JFK, Who, How and Why Solving the world's Greatest
1:04:03
Murder mystery. James there.
1:04:07
Is so much to think about here. You've covered a lot of ground.
1:04:12
I suppose a question I have for you is what is the moral of the
1:04:16
story that if the powerful. Enough forces are aligned
1:04:19
against you, your life can be terminated at any point.
1:04:25
Among the concerns that the right wing at the time had was
1:04:30
that Jack would serve. Eight years, then Bobby would
1:04:33
succeed him to serve eight years and then Teddy would arrive to
1:04:37
have a Kennedy dynasty. They felt they had a nip it in
1:04:41
the bud and alas it was all for policy reasons except in the
1:04:47
case of the anti Castro Cubans who wanted revenge for what they
1:04:50
believed to be his betrayal but which was not because he made it
1:04:54
clear from. The beginning There should be no
1:04:57
overt US involvement in this effort.
1:05:01
It turns out in retrospect, as Bobby and Maxwell Taylor would
1:05:05
discover it when they reviewed the Bay of Pigs fiasco on behalf
1:05:08
of the president, that the Soviets had learned the date of
1:05:13
the invasion, that they'd shared it with Fidel Castro, and that
1:05:18
the agency itself knew Castro knew we were coming.
1:05:23
So all the key players were aware of the basic facts like
1:05:27
is, except for the commander in chief who was deliberately kept
1:05:31
in the dark. It was a gross betrayal.
1:05:34
And frankly, Jeremy, we have yet to overcome the consequences of
1:05:40
that tragic day in Dallas in 1963.
1:05:44
OK, so James. If I want to follow more of your
1:05:48
work, where can I go? Well, my blog.
1:05:51
James H. Fetzer.org I'm doing a lot of
1:05:54
radio shows. I have on Revolution Radio, The

1:06:12
Jeremy and I have lots of blogs out there, any of these sites,
1:06:17
but especially my blog. Just do a search on JFK or 911
1:06:23
or Sandy Hook. You're going to find a veritable
1:06:26
bonanza of information, a whole lot of which I think may come as
1:06:30
a surprise. All right, all on that note.
