Steve Morgan wrote on Facebook (Sept. 18 or 19, 2016): I used to work for Halliburton; it was an open secret and much discussed at the time. Some of the men I worked with were among the original employees of Halliburton and even had known and worked for Roy and Earl Halliburton. This included the man who originally hired me shortly after I separated from the Marines. He told me that Roy and Earl Halliburton wee the "laughingstocks" of the oil patch when they first began to discuss their theories of "cementing" , i.e. bonding the casing to the walls of the drilled well bore by the use of displacement until they proved their theory was functionally sound; which made them instant millionaires. Later when I went into the exploration phase of the petroleum industry, I worked with men who had been on the "Mo-Hole", later designated the "Deep Sea Drilling Project". a plan to drill into the earths crust which was thankfully unsuccessful and the blowout would have been a live and active volcano. The fact that Lady Bird was 51% owner of the stock in Brown and Root had been an open secret. All of the contracts for the Mo Hole Project circa 1966, had been farmed out to Halliburton and it's associate companies. Of Course: this was part of the Democratic Johnson Administration apparatus. A Young Republican attorney from Illinois at the time named Donald Rumsfeld, discovered that LBJ and his wifes company and those connected with it had a monopoly for services to be provided with the lucrative Mo-Hole project. This was at the beginning of the height of the anti war movement and the 1968 election was coming up. LBJ ordered the original contracts for the Mo-Hole project scrapped immediately, the project to be renamed "The Deep Sea Drilling Project" and bids sent to competitors before Rumsfeld, known to be ruthless, could embarrass Lady Bird and the Johnson Administration. That Lady Bird Johnson owned 51 per cent or controlling interest in the stock of Brown and Root is a fact.

Len Colodny today posted this announcement on Facebook: At 12 pm on October 15th I will be speaking at the Oswald Conference in New Orleans. http://oswaldconference.com/speakers/ed-colodny/ The Conference runs from October 14th-October 16th. There will be wide spectrum of best selling authors, and other experts who will cover this subject from a number of different perspectives. My talk will be titled:"Mystery Solved: How Investigating the Kennedy Assassination led to the solution of Nixon's "Silent Coup", and the Watergate Break-in." Whether it is by an "Assassination" or a "Coup" two Presidents were gone from office in little over a decade. Were the same forces (CIA et al) in play with both Kennedy and Nixon's forced removal from the Presidency ?? "Journalism's Dirty BIG Secret." I will be talking about and demonstrating how I exposed the two big lies that covered up the Nixon Coup: First and foremost is the so called "Hero" of the "Coup" Washington Post reporter Robert Woodward AKA "Robert Redford". Interviewing Woodward in his DC home in Georgetown,in his kitchen with three tape recorders rolling, Bob Gettlin and I would press Woodward on the subject of his briefing General Alexander Haig in the White House in 1969-70. When asked Woodward answered with a challenge: "I defy you to produce somebody who says I did the briefing. It's just, it's not true." Bob and I set out meet that demand by going to Woodward's boss,Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Admiral Thomas Moorer. Moorer confirmed that Woodward did brief Haig. That interview was "secretly taped". As was our next interview with Moorer's boss Secretary of Defense Melvin Laird who confirmed that he knew Woodward had briefed Haig. Woodward has lied about who he really was and the sensitive job he had in the Nixon White House, nothing Woodward said or wrote could be believed, no "Deep Throat",no "All The President Men", all made up "fairy tales" to cover his inside role as the"cats paw" in the removal of President Richard Nixon. http://watergate.com/Woodward/Woodward-Haig-Connection.aspx Now for you the the jury gathering at the Oswald Conference,in New Orleans,the evidence below and much more will be discussed and you can render your own verdict there during my presentation. The Woodward "lied" evidence link for you to study beforehand: http://watergate.com/Woodward/Woodward-Haig-Connection.aspx I will also be talking about my second book "Forty Years War" "The Rise and Fall of the Neocons from Nixon to Obama" just republished by Trine Day with an update on October 1st.

Summary of program from coasttocoastam website of Sept. 15, 2016: Date: Wednesday - September 14, 2016 Host: George Noory Guests: Ed Haslam, Open Lines Former advertising executive Ed Haslam discussed the complicated story of Lee Harvey Oswald before the JFK assassination and his summer of secrets - the five months he spent in New Orleans in 1963 as an agent of both the CIA and the Mob, while getting money from the FBI. He also detailed how this relates to the 1964 murder of a cancer researcher, Dr. Mary Sherman, the contamination of the polio vaccine, and our current cancer epidemic. Sherman's work mutating monkey viruses for a cancer vaccine may have been co-opted into a secret bioweapons project, and it appears that Oswald worked on this mission, and may have been tasked with unleashing this kind of weapon on Fidel Castro, Haslam reported. There is clear evidence that Oswald was an intelligence operative not the "lone nut" portrayed by accusers in the JFK case, he continued, outlining some of the intertwined players on the New Orleans scene: In his first week in New Orleans, Oswald intercepted science student Judith Vary Baker at the post office and spoke in Russian to her. The following day he introduced her to David Ferrie (implicated by Jim Garrison in the JFK assassination) and they discussed Mary Sherman, who then showed up at a party at Ferrie's house, a few days later. Oswald was killed in front of a police station after the JFK assassination in order to silence him, as he could have revealed many secrets as to who was behind the conspiracy, as well as details about the bioweapon project, Haslam argued. He further conjectured that Oswald was initially brought back into the US by Bobby Kennedy, the Attorney General at the time, so that he could spy on the Mafia for him. Haslam, along with George Noory, and other guests including Jim Marrs, and Judith Vary Baker will be appearing at the upcoming Lee Harvey Oswald Conference in October in New Orleans.

Joe: I was too late in getting back to the local ACLU to get a ticket to tonight's premier. Could you post tomorrow your assessment of the Snowden film and the presentation that followed it? I am certain the forum would find it of great interest.

Report to the Presidential Commission on CIA Activities Within the United States By James J. Angleton https://archive.org/details/CIA-Report-Angleton-1975

Here is the link to the Black Op radio interview of Joan Mellen on Sept. 8th about her new book: http://blackopradio.com/archives2016.html

Comments on Facebook about this article on Sept. 12, 2016: Tom Huston: “All of the CIA assistance of Hunt and the White House came during the second half of 1971, when President Richard Nixon was exerting pressure on the agency to turn over its records on the failed Bay of Pigs invasion of Cuba in 1961. The meeting between Karamessines and Hunt came a week after Helms met Nixon at the White House. Nixon intended to fire Helms for his lack of cooperation on the Bay of Pigs file, but, as I wrote in Nixon’s Gamble, Nixon caved in and vowed to protect the CIA.” This is not the sort of reasoning that is likely to lead to a big breakthrough in our understanding of Watergate. First, there is no evidence that the CIA assistance had anything to do with the President’s obsession with the Bay of Pigs. The evidence points to three reasons why assistance was limited to the second half of 1971: (1) the Pentagon Papers release in June triggered the formation of the Plumbers and the subsequent perceived need for CIA assistance; (2) Hunt the CIA operative was hired by Chuck Colson to work at the White House in July and assigned to work with the Plumbers unit; and (3) by December the Plumbers had been demobilized as a result of the blundered break-in of Dr. Fielding’s office. Second, it takes far more than correlation of timing to link the Karamessines-Hunt and Nixon-Helms meetings. Unless you have evidence that the purposes of the meetings or, more significantly, the subjects discussed at the meetings bear on one another, all you really have are two meetings which involved CIA. On the basis of what is apparently known, there is no evidentiary support for a conclusion that the Karamessines-Hunt meeting involved Hunt’s work at the White House or was tied to the President’s interest in the Bay of Pigs. Perhaps more digging will turn up some credible evidence on this matter. Even journalists ought to be held to a higher evidentiary standard than surmise. Third, tying Nixon’s obsessive desire to have access to the CIA files on the Bay of Pigs operation to the role of CIA personnel in events leading up to Watergate break-in is more likely to obscure than illuminate the institutional incentives for CIA to use Hunt and his people as assets in the advancement of its bureaucratic interests. Nixon had been after the CIA files on the Bay of Pigs and the Diem coup since at least September of 1969 when I was asked to look into both matters. Nixon thought both events were foreign policy disasters that, having occurred on John Kennedy’s watch, had not received the public scrutiny they deserved (that is, had not diminished JFK’s reputation). A review of the WH tape transcripts for the period following the publication of the Pentagon Papers demonstrates his frustration at the inability to get his hands on these records. While this is an interesting subject, I believe it has little to do with what was driving Helms and the CIA in that period. In my view, Colson’s hiring of Hunt was an unexpected windfall for CIA and one Helms was too experienced an operative not to exploit. It is easy to let the conventional anti-Nixon narrative influence the pursuit and weighing of evidence. CIA consciously set out after the break-in to conceal its involvement in the events leading up to it, and the only way to break through that concealment is to look at the evidence with fresh eyes and an open mind. Like · Reply · 17 hrs .. Ray Locker Ray Locker I agree. I only meant in this section to reflect that the president was pressuring the CIA at this time, and Helms didn't like it. I think Hunt was informing the agency of what he was doing and it coincided with a period when the president was trying to get them to give him more information they didn't want to give up.

Chris: I must defer to more knowledgeable members of the forum for the answer to your question about Oswald being seen in the company of a CIA supervisor in Dallas a few days prior to JFK's assassination.

Chris: This description is published under the YouTube video: Published on May 18, 2016 Richard A. Sprague was the first chief counsel of the House Select Committee on Assassinations. He discusses the Yablonsky murder case and some others, but this is the full extent of his remarks on the JFK case. Uploaded on Nov 10, 2010 It was a tour de force. Richard A. Sprague, L'53, grand inquisitor, fierce competitor and Philadelphia's preeminent trial lawyer, gave a lecture at Penn Law in March 2009 that seemed more like a clinic on how to prosecute a murder case. Making the classroom his courtroom, he recounted the hard investigative work, the skillful presentation of witnesses and the courtroom choreography that leads to conviction. In short, he killed. Speaking to a capacity crowd attending an installment in the Dean's Speakers Series, Sprague ranged over his 50-year career, recalling his lead role in everything from a test of the insanity defense to a congressional investigation of the Kennedy assassination to the murder of Joseph "Jock" Yablonski by United Mine Workers president Tony Boyle.

Joseph McBride wrote on Facebook today (Sunday): I will be talking about the murder of Dallas Police Officer J. D. Tippit (the "Rosetta Stone" of the events of November 22, 1963) this evening (Sunday) with host Bob Wilson on his Antennae Radio show on Debbie Scott's Radio Network. My segment of the show begins about 8 p.m., Eastern time, with a song or two before we talk. We will discuss my research into the Tippit murder for my book INTO THE NIGHTMARE: MY SEARCH FOR THE KILLERS OF PRESIDENT JOHN F. KENNEDY AND OFFICER J. D. TIPPIT (2013), including my finding that Tippit and another officer were assigned by the DPD to hunt down Lee Harvey Oswald before Oswald's identity was officially known to the police, how Tippit drove into a police ambush, and why Oswald was not guilty of killing him. We will also discuss the continuing controversies surrounding the case and recent developments in it. https://www.spreaker.com/sh/bob-wilsons-antennae-radio-show

Michael, with all due respect, Thomas Graves over the years has provided an incredible amount of information and knowledge about Kennedy's assassination in his over 5000 posts in our forum. He is neither naïve nor gullible. You, he and I, along with the other members of the forum, are trying our best to construct the definitive account of what happened in 1963 in Dallas and in the orchestrated cover-up that followed. Each of us has something to contribute in this endeavor. We are doing this because JFK's assassination was a major turning point in American and world history and affects everyone to this day.
