If one finds BoP-related Cubans in the Lennon affair, it tends to uphold accusations that JL was eliminated in advance of his possible protest of the coming Contra war. Was the Cabal anticipating that Nicaragua, Honduras and El Salvador would become the Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia of our hemisphere, and that recent citizen Lennon would draw attention to that? If, I said. Tends, I qualified.

HOST: I'm Megan Chakravarty. Today marks the 60th anniversary of President John F. Kennedy's assassination in Dallas, Texas, and with every anniversary, we get further and further away from the need to say anything relevant, and, for God's sake, anything new. Today we will ignore new documentary films and TV series, emerging eyewitness testimony, and anything at all troublesome...

A Sorry "Nightmare" Of A Book
David Andrews replied to Bill Brown's topic in JFK Assassination Debate
And remember, consumers... "avoid the Internet forums at all costs. They are a colossal waste of time. "Those forums are entertainment websites, not serious vessels of education. They are largely populated by one of two groups – newbies who know nothing about the case, or Internet trolls feeding on the newbies." We're the Robert Booth Nichols of the Web. -
Is RFKjr Angling for a Cabinet Post in the 4th Reich?
David Andrews replied to Cliff Varnell's topic in Political Discussions
I'm reminded of the Stephen King movie The Dead Zone (1983), where only clairvoyant Christopher Walken can see that candidate Martin Sheen is unhinged and power hungry, and as future president will be willing to cut off the JCOS chief's hand to slap it on the palm reader that enables the missile launch. One of the better SK adaptations, if you're so inclined. "Do it, general, and go down in history with me. The people speak through me." -

Let General Zod chew on it in The Phantom Zone. -

A through-and-through hole with sunlight shining through? -
Keven, in your "stare of death" detail posted above, with yellow arrow, notice there is almost a straight line of black on the left border of the front wound. Looks very un-hairlike. If you look at a full, larger version of the photo, the black covers the parietal area and seems to proceed upward into JFK's crown hair. That's what I meant by "What's all that black?"

In this fine and valuable post, terms used are a bit fluid among interviewees and the author. The author makes distinction between use of an optical effect (an inserted traveling matte, not used) and aerial imaging (painting in the forward head wound, skull "flap," and skull explosion). Rutan, however, cites the forward wound as an "optical" effect. The forward skull "flap" is rather realistic looking in Zapruder. Is it possible that the forward wound is actually a filmed image of the rear wound transposed to the right front, through whatever means? Combination of traveling matte for the "flap" with aerial imaging used to create the skull explosion? Appearance of a manufactured right front "flap" in the autopsy photos would require taking the time to review the doctored Z-film and replicate the altered frames. Alternately, what's up with all the black over the parietal area in the "stare of death" photo? Check full size at link https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autopsy_of_John_F._Kennedy The frontal wound images and records need some further examination. Good one, Keven.

Thank you. I don't think it's a bad documentary, I just think it should have been sharper on the origin issues you cite. The doc puts forth that the Octopus was created by a set of named characters (Shackley, Cline, etc. ...but not Paul Helliwell), but not how these characters created Safari Club and the Octopus network. Along the way they busted out a number of criminally managed US savings and loan companies, causing a financial crisis. All this is more important to understand than that these characters were machinating before the creation of CIA, an assertion the narrative leans on heavily without saying why it's significant. We know what's going on, but the general audience might not. Better to discuss the deeds.

Here's a documentary on Mark Lombardi, a New York artist whose death in March 2000 was ruled a suicide. Lombardi was attracting attention through creating graphic representations of flow charts showing the movement of money and influence among politicians, intel ops, corporations and banks from the Safari Club/Contra war period forward. It was a truly modern art, and some critics may have taken up arms against it.

Probably no one else is so undignified as to bring this up, but what separates the Z-film that RB Nichols showed the reporter from the not-so-deepfake that Bill Cooper unwisely pedaled for years? Nichols' version was faked on film, not video? If a film fake was circulating as far downstream as Nichols, then someone at some intelligence-friendly film lab was proud enough of their 1963 work to create extreme fakes in order to show off their capabilities, and Nichols and other intel bottom feeders were using the fakes to awe, influence and mislead viewers. My note on The Octopus Murders: the credibility of Danny Casolaro's research would have been underscored by explaining the Ted Shackley-GHW Bush axis at CIA that created the private, international intelligence network known as the Safari Club to counteract the Jimmy Carter-Stansfield Turner budget and personnel cuts at CIA. That, and some exploration of how banks like BCCI and Nugan Hand operated as funders of illegal clandestine ops through investments made by several countries' intel services, not just CIA's. It was the background that enabled and informed the Reagan admin's Contra war in Central America and its flows of arms, supplies, capital and drugs.

You can see Danny Arce's long raincoat in your second pic above. If Oswald had worn such a thing that day...who would need a curtain rod story?
