Foreign Policy has posted a very interesting interview with Jefferson Morley, veteran journalist and author of "
The Ghost: The Secret Life of CIA Spymaster James Jesus Angleton."
Morley discusses how the CIA's then counter-intelligence czar closely followed Oswald, how the Kennedy assassination was, at the very least, a colossal blunder by the CIA and perhaps something much worse and why the CIA continues to resist the release of the entire assassination documents file.
Good background on Angleton and Allen Dulles, particularly regarding open questions on the assassination and investigation, in "The Devil's Chessboard", by David Talbot, HarperCollins (2015).
ReplyDeleteThe Foreign Police article reinforces my theory that most conspiracies are formed after an event to cover screw-ups.
ReplyDeleteForeign Policy is still perpetrating a myth that Oswald acted alone (or even that he fired killing shots). This obfuscation continues to this day to protect the real culprits. The people who ordered Jack Ruby to kill Oswald are the perpetrators behind JFK assassination.
ReplyDelete@Anon 321. Obviously you didn't bother listening to the interview. I have your opinion. What evidence do you have for your conclusion?
ReplyDeleteSurprise, surprise, Mound. Your assumption was wrong.
ReplyDelete(BTW, one of the best advice I ever got was: "Do not assume anything")
While Mr. Morley mentioned few times about a possibility of Oswald not acting alone, that notion was consistently discounted by the moderator. Also, whenever the conversation reached that juncture, there was always a diversion; Oswald and KGB, Oswald and Cuba, Oswald and CIA, etc. All those diversions are red herring.
I still think that most logical thing to do is to go after folks who ordered Ruby to pull the trigger. Unless you believe that Ruby acted alone :-))
