From the article: Facing fears of a broad energy shortage, in the shadow of an embargo by Arab oil producers, the Nixon administration and Congress laid the foundation of an industrial policy that over the span of four decades developed the technologies needed to unleash American shale oil and natural gas onto world markets. http://www.nytimes.com/2015/01/21/business/economy/washingtons-role-in-oil-prices-recent-fall.html

David: Does "Constitutional crisis" mean more than "Kennedy would have gotten a new V-P who wouldn't play ball with Defense/Intelligence interests"? Does it also mean that "LBJ's downfall would have produced a countercoup of revelations that would have threatened the Kennedy presidency"? Your questions are excellent and provocative and can only be answered in hindsight using speculation. My guess is that the answer to both is “yes.” LBJ would not have gone quietly into the night. The bloodletting would have been brutal. The Intelligence Community would have fought behind the scenes to make certain that if LBJ were forced out of office, the new Vice President would not be hostile to it. There would have been chaos. I recently saw the superb new movie, “The Imitation Game,” which has been nominated for eight academy awards. Without give away a key element of the film, there is assertion in it that MI6 made a paramount decision to keep Churchill out of the loop on a key matter while the work was being done to crack the “Enigma” Code. Such was also the nature of Intelligence Agencies, including the CIA and Military, that JFK had to wrestle with. They could not control him and could not control what he might disclose publicly because of certain knowledge he had gained. He was taking steps that indicated he was moving towards such disclosure. He had to be terminated. All presidents since JFK have been vetted by the Intelligence Community, which knows compromising information about them. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2084970/

http://www.amazon.com/review/R2HFUHNCS0JVPQ My review of Donald Jeffries' "Hidden History."

http://io9.com/a-mitochondrial-dna-transplant-could-help-treat-hundred-1678014687 I erred in my prior posting in implying that Joseph Farrell was endorsing all claims made by Judyth Vary Baker. If you read his commentary it dealt with the link above. Dr. Farrell's opinion piece was about a scientific discovery that could have a relationship to cancer. I think a strong case can be made that CIA uses cancer as a weapon to eliminate targets, a charge that some national leaders in South America have made. Dr. Farrell's commentary did not mention anything about Judyth's claims of her relationship with Oswald. I have never met Judyth or read her books. My interest lies in promoting freedom of speech and the marketplace of ideas. Judyth has a right to speak and be heard like others in the JFK community, even if what she espouses offends others for a variety of reasons. Judyth's critics have a similar right to speak and be heard on their views of her. There are a lot of books I would like to read, including Judyth's, but like everyone else I am constrained by time. Right now I am reading Donald Jeffries, "Hidden History: An Expose of Modern Crimes, Conspiracies, and Cover-up in American Politics." I am glad that I have taken the time to do so because I find it so outstanding and rewarding that I plan to review it on Amazon and recommend it highly,

https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=YwR7sgn_wMM I read Joseph Farrell's daily postings on Facebook and never miss watching his weekly YouTube analysis of events. I find him highly credible, which I why I posted his commentary on the new scientific discovery and the claims of Judyth Barker and Edward Haslam. My guess is that most nations' intelligence agencies follow his analyses without fail. But judge for yourself by viewing his video for this week found in the link above.

It is wise always want to talk to a person who was there. Investigative files are just what the investigator wants them to be. Deceit and deception are the norm in these matters. Files and documents are created to lure the naïve into believing something is true and can be cited as being official and accurate when in reality it is purposeful misinformation.

http://gizadeathstar.com/2015/01/mdna-intercellular-transfer-demonstrated-new-zealand-really-high-octane-speculation/ Dr. Joseph Farrell asserts a new scientific breakthrough may show support for the claims of Judyth Vary Baker and of Edward Haslam's book, "Dr. Mary's Monkey."

Mark, Paul and Al and others who may be interested as to the rest of the story: I am under contract with TrineDay to write my autobiography, which in general terms covers the rise of the modern Conservative Movement, its subsequent hijacking by sociopaths and opportunists, the chain of events that link Vice President Nixon’s decision in 1960 to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy three years later, Watergate and the burglars’ three goals, Billie Sol Estes and LBJ, and the Moody Foundation scandal. Jon G. Tidd has observed in the forum: “"The continuing cover-up is the most significant fact of the assassination today. It goes to who killed him and why. What reason does the U.S. Government have today to deprive the American people of the truth of his killing?" I shall attempt to answer this question based on the limited knowledge I have. In my opinion there does exist a valid reason why the U.S. Government has not revealed the reason for JFK’s assassination. It is as valid today as it was in 1963. Further, JFK had to be killed when he was by the Conspirators because Vice President Lyndon Johnson was just days away of facing criminal charges, which would have caused a Constitutional crisis that would have played havoc in the efforts of those who perceive their paramount purpose to be our national security. Presidents come and go but Intelligence Agencies persevere and continue on. Jon G. Tidd has also written that “In my view, the downfall of Western Civilization began on November 22, 1963”, a thesis in which I am in total agreement. Twenty years ago at its request I donated my professional files to the Archives Library at the University of Oregon in Eugene. Later this year I plan to visit the library to secure copies of documents I need to complete my book, which will provide the rest of the story.

CIA Director William Casey on the CIA Disinformation http://truthstreammedia.com/cia-flashback-well-know-our-disinformation-program-is-complete-when-everything-the-american-public-believes-is-false/ This article contains interesting documentation, including an important newspaper column on the CIA written by Jack Anderson in 1981.

Paul: For the past year or so Great Britain has been rocked by allegations of horrendous criminal activity by the well-connect involving children. Same cases extend back decades but in some of these cases the accused are still alive and being prosecuted. It is obvious that U.S. prosecution authorities attempted to cover-up the Epstein case that involves VIPs but the recent civil suit by one of the victims has revived it. The story could become a major factor in the U.S. presidential campaign if Hillary Clinton seeks the Democratic nomination due to Bill C's alleged involvement. It brings back to mind The Franklin Chronicles saga. Peter Levenda is correct on this and on a lot of other things. Paul, what you post constantly always amazes me. Your knowledge runs deep and covers a large number of subjects. Members like you make the Forum highly credible.

From the article: All stories like this have a butler. In this case Epstein’s Butler Alfredo Rodriguez, who was arrested and did time for his role of paymaster to Epstein, marked up a copy of Epstein’s little black book for Palm Beach Police showing who Epstein had pandered pre-teen girls to. The list, which I have seen, is mind blowing. It includes a former governor, a billionaire Republican donor, a Prime Minister, a former Senate Majority Leader, a well known lawyer, royalty, socialites and scientists.

http://www.activistpost.com/2015/01/paris-attackers-funded-by-pentagon.html Interesting commentary on the Paris event and what preceded it.

Jon: Again I want to associate myself with your remarks. JFK assassination was a super mega event in world history. Thoughtful people realize this.

http://www.paulcraigroberts.org/2015/01/11/suspicions-growing-french-shootings-false-flag-operation/ Paul Craig Roberts analysis of the event in France.

Jon: I wish to associate myself with your comments. You frame the issue succinctly. "The continuing cover-up is the most significant fact of the assassination today. It goes to who killed him and why. What reason does the U.S. Government have today to deprive the American people of the truth of his killing?"

This past Friday Gorbachev raised the alarm of nuclear war further in a released excerpt from the German magazine Der Spiegel (The Mirror) that the Ukrainian crisis could escalate into a conventional and even nuclear war, explaining that "a war... of this kind would unavoidably lead to a nuclear war." Question: Is it possible to use a nuclear bomb to stage a False Flag event? Could a nation possessing a nuclear bomb explode it somewhere (such as on the oil distribution facilities in Saudi Arabia) in an operation in which it could not be determined immediately which nation was behind the attack or in a way that an innocent nation was blamed? Could a nation do this without leaving its fingerprints as a means of sending a message or warning that further intensification of the new Cold War will lead to a world wide nuclear war or that a specific nation had better bow to the demands being made on it by its enemy? I live in Houston, the Energy Capital of the world. The greater Houston area, including the Houston ship channel, is home to numerous oil refineries and chemical plants. If a nuclear bomb were exploded here, almost immediately there would be no gasoline available in the U.S. Commerce and transportation would come to a halt. If such a bomb exploded, could it be determined immediately whether Russia, China or some terrorist organization was behind it? If it could not be determined who did it, would the U.S. be paralyzed from reacting with its own nuclear weapons for fear of starting a worldwide conflagration?

Paul, you are correct. I got KPFA confused with KPFK, the Pacifica station in Los Angeles on which I have appeared and which frequently has the authors of TrineDay books as guests. Hopefully, forum members will come up with some additional ideas for promotion of books.

Jon: "JFK was killed for a specific reason. That reason still prevails." Are you saying we still do not know the specific reason he was killed?

Promoting books by Forum members I would like to start a topic on the forum of devising a formula for promoting the sale of published books written by forum members. There are a number of members who have published books on the JFK assassination and on other timely subjects. Perhaps we can use our collective heads to develop a formula for promoting these books. Such a formula could be used to promote books already published and those in the future. Donald Jeffries’s book, “Hidden History: An Expose of Modern Crimes, Conspiracies and Cover-ups in American Politics”, has just been published. Let’s use his book as an example of devising a means of promoting it. Once a formula is devised for it, the same can be use for promoting any member’s book in the future. To start off, this is what I would suggest: 1) Create a page on Facebook devoted solely to the book. Ask Facebook members to “like” it. 2) Create four two-minute videos to be placed on YouTube. Each would focus on a different aspect of the book’s contents. 3) Inquire of radio programs if they would be interested in interviewing Donald, the author --programs such as coastocoastam (with 10 million listeners) and Pacifica radio station KPFA that reaches the greater Los Angeles area. 4) Write objective reviews that would be posted on Amazon. Please add any ideas you have for promoting members’ books. This presents an opportunity for broadcasting to a larger audience the views of forum members.

Paul: Two of Judyth's books, "David Ferrie" and "Me and Lee", are on Amazon's top 20 JFK conspiracy books as is "Dr. Mary's Monkey", which is aligned with Judyth's claims. Actually these three books are in the top 7 sellers. They are published by TrineDay, which has a good relationship with Los Angeles Pacifica radio station KPFA. When "Watergate Exposed" was published by TrineDay, I appeared several times on KPFA to talk about the book and Watergate. If you and I were in charge of finding persons to interview on KPFA, we might invite Judyth as her books sell well and she presents controversial viewpoints. In the past I have listened to KPFA programs and many dealt with controversial subjects. This engenders a larger listening audience and is part of the presenting a market place of ideas with the listener making the final determination what to believe or not. France at the present time is caught up with the idea of preserving "freedom of speech" in light of recent events there. Judyth has a right to "freedom of speech" here even though much of the JFK assassination community reject her claims. http://www.trineday.com/
