I'm somewhat confused by this strange thread. In order to see the matter in question for myself, I bought & looked at Spooks, Hoods & The Hidden Elite .
It seems to me that Chauncey Holt was simply telling the truth from memory. What he says does not contradict anything I've seen in the canon of JFK literature & analysis. It seems to me that Holt's recollections throw a very bright light into areas of JFK assassination research which have been hidden & obscure for a very long time.
This being said, I can't but wonder why Valenti & Weaver, who apparently have not seen Spooks, Hoods & The Hidden Elite , should be at pains to discredit Holt's interview. There seems to be personal animosity toward Dunkbaar for his sale of the Holt interview. Why? I paid a small fortune for a copy of Bloody Treason. By the time you've bought Ultimate Sacrifice & Someone Would Have Talked & a raft of other books, you're bankrupt. Still, there's value to be had for the money, no? IMO, Holt's interview, produced by Dunkbaar or by Mahatma Gandhi, stands independently as a tremendous source of otherwise unavailable information & insight.
Spooks, Hoods & The Hidden Elite is a well worth a look see!
Hi Miles,
I have no personal anymosity towards Wim Dankbaar, never had and most likely never will,
at least not in regard of anything said or done in connection with the JFK assassination in the broader sense.
He knows that for years, but he likes to make others believe that, when it's fitting him,me thinks.
My Life's going to be too short to waste my time creating artifical enemies for non important reasons (if at all).
I do indeed question his believe system in regard of what proof is meant to be and considering the lack of proof (in the
sense someone with a normal share of brains left would accept it) in his presentation of the James Files story,
the Judyth Baker story and now (this is not a new one) the Chauncey Holt story.
Lack of proof in regard of the center claims of each story I must add of course.
Because some of the claims are true and proven.
That is:
James Files was a criminal
Judyth Baker killed mice while in school and worked at Reily Coffee Company
Chauncey Holt was a good artist (both at the trapez and as painter)
I have yet to see proof for claims made by those three and repeated by Wim Dankbaar, for example:
James Files was in the military
James Files was in Dealey Plaza on 22/11/1963
James Files shot and killed JFK that day
amongst some other things.
Judyth Baker was Oswalds lover
Judyth Baker was working on a secret cancer project
Judyth Baker knew David Ferrie,Jack Ruby
amongst some other things
Chauncey Marvin Holt shot and killed Bugsy Siegel (claimed by Wim Dankbaar to me)
Chauncey Marvin Holt provided fake ID badges to persons in Dealey Plaza on 11/22/1963
Chauncey Marvin Holt was the old tramp
amongst some other things.
I am not talking about (circumstancial) evidence in the broadest imaginable way , I am talking about proof, like it is proven that
the earth isn't a flat disc, in that sense, if you can follow me.
So, unless Wim Dankbaar or anyone else can show me proof that those 3 persons did what they claim in connection with the
JFK assassination and or Lee Harvey Oswald or in connection with a secret cancer weapon,
I take my freedom of doubting both them and Wim's judgement.
I do that, because neither Wim nor anyone else was ever able to show me proof in the past, although promises were made more than once.
I do not doubt that Wim believes in his own words, but I have stopped believing in them.
I don't care who solves the JFK assassination, but if someone knocks on my door saying
he has done it, he better shows me proof for his claim or else I regard him as a weirdo
at best, when his evidence is of the Wim Dankbaar quality
Anything wrong with that approach ?
Hi Dave,
I can easily agree with you. I remain neutral myself. However, there are some recently published books & interviews which, taken in aggregate, begin to present a complex & intricate case. The case is extensive in detail & in self verifying elements. Have you examined these?

If you carefully examine these, for starters, I believe you will be in for a sea change in your views, regardless of your final conclisions. I even hazard that you will borrow some Dutch gulden for, to you, an admittedly distastful business contact with Dunkbaar! Even you will want to closely examine Spooks, Hoods & The Hidden Elite just out of curiousity if for no other reason.
Bon voyage!
