Tink's performance in The New York Times
Bernice Moore replied to a topic in JFK Assassination Debate
I think you vastly underestimate the amount of hatred towards JFK--whether because of his Catholicism or his father's politics--in the Dallas area, and with the Dallas Morning News repeatedly running stories with a spin that made it sound like the federal government was the enemy, and that the Civil War had ended just weeks before. It does not surprise me in the least that there could be "trickle down" in such an environment, and that the symbolism of the umbrella (and equating that with appeasement) would reach Steven Witt--who would then be naive enough (and foolish enough) to do what he did. If there had been no assassination, and Dealey Plaza was not ground zero in this affair, Witt would be an unnoticed and unreported footnote to history. Instead, and because of what he did and where he did it, his presence and his behavior is being invested with unnecessary mystery, and his every action put under a microscope. That's my opinion. IMHO: It seems obvious to me that there are so many other more important issues to focus upon. HOWEVER, had I been the HSCA investigator, I would probably have sought corroborating affidavits from at least one third party (e.g., his wife, or a close friend). If Witt spoke of what he did to his dentist (and that's how I heard of it, back in the 1970s), I'm would assume his family (and perhaps some close friends) knew about it, too. I continue to be baffled why anyone who has given serious thought to how this conspiracy functioned--and here I am referring to the "shooting conspiracy" (and not any other aspect of this case)--would continue to entertain the notion that stationing a man with an umbrella at curbside could possibly serve a legitimate function in this murder plot. But apparently some do. So now certain folks are off and running looking for photos of someone with an umbrella, in Arizona, seeking to verify Witt's story. But what about something that is far more relevant and seems far more significant: that visible in certain frames of the Zapruder film, on the south side of Elm Street and situated at about the location where the car dramatically slowed (if not halted, as I believe to have been the case)--there were one or two yellow stripes painted on the curb. Such stripes, located on the south curb (and easily visible to the driver of the vehicle) could easily have functioned as a "fail safe" signal of some sort. Certainly, these yellow stripes ought to be the central focus of any investigation seeking evidence of a "signal" being transmitted to the driver of the car. And not Steven Witt and his umbrella. But no doubt the colorful image of Steven Witt, waving his umbrella, and supposedly "calling in more fire" (as if this were an artillery strike) will live on in the world of urban legend, while the two yellow stripes on the south curb will continue to be ignored. DSL David these are Jacks work; the yellow stripes; take care..b anyone can go to the thread if interested, sorry no intention of breaking thread,..b http://educationforu...=1 -

Hi Pat; FWIW...Here is a photo of Witts umbrella taken by the commission....b ps and here is the umbrella in Dealey Plaza..i am thinking the Dealey umbrella shows 8...imo.b he was 53 years old when he testified,at the HSCA ,, that means he was 38 at Dealey......in Dallas that day, if as i believe Jim d posted the Chamberlain incident was 30 years or so previously, that would mean he was only 8 when that occurred with Joe Kennedy, so imo I still cannot see anyone expecting any others to know what holding up an umbrella would mean, in 1963 to a motorcade for jfk, never mind that he expected that jfk would instantly know, i think probably jfk had many other things on his mind than something that took place 30 years ago......that he was not involved in, true his Dad was but, i think that might have had to have been pointed out to him.....imo...as far as Penn goes yes he could have been duped in fact if he was that somehow would be no surprise...is there any documentation by the dentist who gave the info out that um was Witt, something positive, or just say so...thanks all.....b -

I would love to see a program based on restoring the reputation of witnesses who have been unduly smeared. Start one then. <B>[Cue the Dennis Hopper character in "Apocalypse Now"] "Who's gonna tell 'em?...Me?? WRONG!!" Such a program would require a more presentable front man, someone the MSM couldn't impeach on character issues -- not that I think being a punk rock gambling house Folsom St. degenerate is any kind of actual character issue. </B> And we get it. Yeah? JFK was shot in the back at T3 and the round did not exit; he was shot in the throat from the front and the round did not exit. Once you get that you're on your way, in my book, at any rate. You believe Witt. I believe Rosemary Willis, and her descriptions of Witt's action match Witt's. I believe Rosemary Willis and her family have been trying to tell the world that they saw guys dressed as cops shoot at Kennedy, but they wanted to lead normal lives in Texas and decided to tell the world in a round about way: From the HSCA summary of the Rosemary Willis testimony: http://www.history-m...Vol12_0006a.htm And JFK wore tailored shirts and was hit with a blood soluble round. <B> The former is historical fact, the latter was the informed speculation of the autopsists the night of the autopsy. From autopsy-attendee FBI SA Francis O'Neill's 1978 HSCA sworn affidavit: (quote on) Some discussion did occur concerning the disintegration of the bullet. A general feeling existed that a soft-nosed bullet struck JFK. There was discussion concerning the back wound that the bullet could have been a "plastic" type or an "Ice" [sic] bullet, one which dissolves after contact. (quote off) From autopsy-attendee FBI SA James Sibert's 1978 HSCA sworn affidavit: (quote on) The doctors also discussed a possible deflection of the bullet in the body caused by striking bone. Consideration was also given to a type of bullet which fragments completely....Following discussion among the doctors relating to the back injury, I left the autopsy room to call the FBI Laboratory and spoke with Agent Chuch [sic] Killion. I asked if he could furnish any information regarding a type of bullet that would almost completely fragmentize (sic). (quote off) [Cue Hannibal Lechter in "Silence of the Lambs"] "It's all there in those papers, Clarisse. Everything you need to catch them, (these men) you seek." </B> Just not from an umbrella. This is a good place to start a study of the subject. http://karws.gso.uri...s/flechette.txt It's all there in the case-file/historical record, Lee, everything we need to catch those men we seek. For the historical record, if not for actual justice. LINDA MADE AN INTERESTING POST, OBSERVATION RE WITT'S TESTIMONY, IN ANOTHER THREAD BACK IN MARCH........http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/index.php?showtopic=2783&view=findpost&p=239198 sorry caps, might be interested in...thanks .titled umbrellaman...... http://educationforu...?showtopic=2783.b page 4 post number 53.. i am copying and pasting it, linda, so it does not get lost, ok..i hope, thanks........'' Either the transcription of the HSCA testimony was wrong, or else the witness' memory was bad. The Rio Grande National Life Insurance Co. building was at the northwest corner of the intersection of Elm Street and N. Field, not Beal. The insurance company (Witt's employer in 1963) was owned and operated by the Baxter family, who moved to Dallas "in 1939, [when] the Rio Grande Building in Harlingen was traded for the old Linz Building on Main and Martin streets [1608 Main] in Dallas to become the company's new home office building." They built a new building in Dallas in about 1950 in the 1200 block of Elm; it was torn down for the Renaissance Tower. It would have been about half a mile from Dealey Plaza. '' -

Martin, I think you are confusing the manner in which Jim Fetzer presents his ideas with the ideas themselves. Any rational person has to admit there is very strong witness testimony to the limo stop, for example. The manner in which Jim Fetzer presents this information may grate, but he has sufficient witness testimony on his side that argument in and of itself cannot be ignored. There is also the observations at Parkland of an avulsive wound in the back of the head, but according to ITEK, the extant film shows no debris exiting the back of the head. In fact such material exiting the rear of Kennedy's head should have been one of the predominant features of the film, were it genuine. I do not agree with all of Dr. Fetzer's ideas, nor the manner in which he speaks to those with whom he disagrees. But separate the man from his claims, and give thought only to the claims. OK, not all the claims, but ones which have obvious corroboration -- the limo stop for one. Sometimes confusion and conflict within the community are not caused by the works of Jim Fetzer, but by the extraordinary way evidence was falsified in this case, enough to make the collective research community's heads spin in collective confusion. Having said that, I do wish Dr.Fetzer would tone it down, if only to gain a more sympathetic hearing on points where I believe he is on solid ground. Regards, Daniel By the same token, Daniel, surely any rational person has to admit that there is very strong witness testimony to the limo slowing down? And if a rational person then compares the two sets of witness testimony to each other (one being the limo stopped versus the other being the limo slowed down, almost to a halt) which would the rational person conclude was more likely if he was basing it upon the said evidence? And the Nix film also shows blood and brain matter being expelled forward so that film too has to be altered which then begins to take us into "Chris Matthews is going to have a field day" type territory. Fetzer believes it is this type of evidence that can be used to buy the American Public into easily understanding the nature of the conspiracy. He says this and then instructs you to read 15 books and go view John Costella's numerous internet videos. I say anyone who thinks these items can be used to buy large groups of people into beliveing there was a conspiracy is as mad as a hatter. Even if they're true... Regards Lee Researchers bashing other researchers is a lose-lose proposition, irrespective of the validity of the reasoning processes which "rationalize" it. I have books by James Fetzer and Josiah Thompson.... and both have made significant contributions......we [the Forum] have a large audience, and when this stuff goes on it hurts all of us, because we are recognized as a community, however fragmented it is. I have yet to see an example of this sort of stuff going on, in which the phrase "check your ego at the door," wouldn't have solved the issue before it was started. :DThanks Robert, in fact, i have been waiting for a word from you, you make sense..imo..just a memory, when Rich had his forum going, he use to have that motto, on the front page, or pages, to leave your ego at the door.......the other i recall was do not p/ in his potted plant on the way out.....just a bit of a grin for a wee break...thanks... :blink: :blink: -

DR.Salerian's REPORT; Alan Salerian believes that "President Kennedy's throat wound was caused by a flechette-transported poison," which paralyzed the President and rendered him "immobilized and speechless for several seconds before a frontal entry bullet shattered his skull." http://www.historica...dence.net/?p=60 He also posits that it was a smiling Lucien Conein in Dealey Plaza, captured in a photograph. A.J. Weberman has offered evidence that it was not Conein. Also: "On November 22, the first exhibition of Dr. Alen Salerian's paintings will happen in a private venue in honor and remembrance of President John F. Kennedy and his ideals. His assassination on the date in 1963, has been the backdrop and catalyst to this emotionally sweeping visual homage the painter calls JFK: Symbols on Canvas. Copyright © 2008 Elsevier Ltd All rights reserved. The postmortem examination of President Kennedy is invalid: The evidence Alen J. Salerian Washington Center for Psychiatry, 5225 Wisconsin Avenue # 104, Washington, District of columbia 20015, USA Received 29 May 2008; accepted 1 June 2008. Available online 20 August 2008. Summary This paper proves that President Kennedy’s postmortem examination is a sham. The sham nature of the presidential autopsy is based upon several findings incompatible with human anatomy, practice of medicine and Newton’s second law “an object acted upon by a constant force will move with constant acceleration in the direction of the force”. We review the autopsy report and other assassination evidence and demonstrate that the postmortem examination is invalid. http://www.historicalevidence.net/?f San Diego, CA, March 21, 2009 – Noted Washington psychiatrist Dr. Alen J. Salerian presented a lecture titled “The Double Murders of President Kennedy and Lee Harvey Oswald Are Not Good for America: The Evidence” at the 27th Annual Symposium of the American College of Forensic Psychiatry in San Diego. Dr. Salerian’s presentation included a review and analysis of documents from President Kennedy’s medical records from Parkland Hospital in Dallas, ballistic evidence, witness reports, photographic and film images from the scene of the assassination and Newton’s Second Law of Motion. The evidence Dr. Salerian presented included the following: 1. President Kennedy suffered three wounds, none of which was inflicted by Oswald. 2. President Kennedy’s throat wound was caused by a flechette-transported poison, probably with a main chemical or chemicals that are d-tubocurarine, or a d-tubocurarine-like substance with rapid paralyzing action. In 1975, CIA Director William Colby’s testimony at a U.S. Senate hearing before the Senate’s Special Intelligence Committee described such a neurotoxin. 3. Because of the paralysis caused by the poison, President Kennedy was immobilized and speechless for several seconds before a frontal entry bullet shattered his skull. 4. A second bullet struck President Kennedy with posterior entry 6.5 inches below his neckline and was lodged in his chest. Contact: Alan Hermesch, 202-210-6262, 301-365-4762, http://educationforu...showtopic=15058 Dr.Salerian's Video Report...

Regards Lee It is difficult to sift through the "slowed down" witnessess to "almost stopped" witnesses, to "stopped" witnesses. But the sifting has to be done, and I fear there is a great hesitancy to do this. By the way, I subjectively would link the "almost stopped" witnesses with the "stopped" witnesses as being more corroborative of each other than the "slowed down" witnesses, but that's just an opinion. Based upon Toni Foster, Hargis,Chaney, the Newmans, and a few others, I believe the limo stopped momentarily, for such a short time that others might have said it "almost stopped." But that is again my opinion. I also feel insufficient reflection/study on the matter has hurt the research community and progress on the case. Best, Daniel Dr.JIM fwiw...here is a photo of the RUSSIAN UMBRELLA WEAPON, they used.....take care b.. P.S also a gif showing, the movement of DCM's hand he clutches and then reclutches, similar to a fist with his hand in the air..he does not wave..pps I think this one shows perhaps more as the the limo is just approaching them, then his hand is raised and clutched.the one marked frame 212.thanks..b -

I Have not found the page re the Secret Service rules in motorcades, i have gone through every folder of ss info now, sorry bout that as i do know it did exist, but i have found that apparently Clint Hill was observed by another agent, as eyeing the umbrella man, that is the only mention found, that any of the ss agents regarded the man with an umbrella as being needed to be watched closely during a motorcade, as were men with an over coat, rain coat over their arm, or a cane, which says to me, that the SS were aware that the flechette weapons were available during that time, as they were fired from a gun,umbrella or cane, which were what they were to look out for, so Hill ignored the actions of the umbrella man in raising pumping the umbrella up and down, he was somewhat interested but did not act or move till after he thought he saw jfk slump somewhat and heard a richochet, the lastest ss rule book available on the web is 2002, which is of no use to us now.... Message body OVERPASSES (AND THE UMBRELLA MAN)-DISTRACTIONS?: From Vince Palamara's the W/C gems.... 21 H 564: DPD Asst. Chief Charles Batchelor---"He [Lawson of the SECRET SERVICE] also stated that we should have men on each railroad and traffic overpass that the presidential party would go under, and that these people should be instructed NOT TO LET ANYONE STAND OVER THE IMMEDIATE PATH OF THE PRESIDENTIAL PARTY." [emphasisi added---not adhered to in Dealey Plaza!]; 4 H 327: Secret Service agent Winston G. Lawson himself testifies that "any citizen", no exceptions, were to be kept off overpasses. In fact, 4 H 351: Lawson testified: "I recall thinking we were coming to an overpass now, so I glanced up to see if it was clear, the way most of them had been, THE WAY ALL OF THEM HAD BEEN UP UNTIL THAT TIME ON THE WAY DOWNTOWN, AND IT WAS NOT...And I was looking for the officer WHO SHOULD HAVE BEEN THERE, HAD BEEN REQUESTED TO BE THERE...and I made a kind of motion through the windshield trying to get his attention to move the people from over our path THE WAY IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN...we were just approaching this overpass when I heard a shot." [emphasis added---was this a visual distraction, as the umbrella man was? In the new Z-film video---the sprocket area---Secret Service agent Clint Hill, in particular, is seemingly transfixed on the umbrella man DURING the initial shooting!]; 2 H 119: In regards to the video, imo fwiw, i do think Dr.Thompson has done the community a diservice in joining in the latest New York Times continuing effort to smear, guffaw whatever word you want to choose, the CT Community,of which they are well known through the years in doing so at any given opportunity, of which up until now, i believe though there may have been some with previous doubts perhaps of his alliance, it was almost without question, i do think he has hurt his own reputation within said community, more by his actions and comments on the video, than he has hurt the Community, though he has been represented by his book SSID in the past as being a positive CTr , he is after all only one.and will remain so, and the community is a village and not just represented by any one person and has never been, i do not believe that those within that have studied the assassination and have to some degree a knowledge on the subject will be fooled or not for long, by any as they have not been by such as Gary Mack who has tried, playing both sides against the middle, and been tripped up repeatedly during his involvements in L/N documentarys of the past..I personally think that any researcher who would join in with the said NYT would be regarded also in similar fashion, the only time such as the NYT will welcome any well known CTr, or otherwise, is to at least trip him up if possible, and heap some type of scorn on all within, such as the ''wing nut accusation''....but it happened, and with the Drs participation, i was and am very surprised at his unsettling appearance.......imo just one of the community..b....it is like the old saying if you lay down with fleas.......they get you... -

John, somewhere, though i have not been able to bring it forth as yet, there is a Secret Service actions report, that if such any umbrella's were opened along a Presidential parade route or similar or other suspicious actions, the SS would be all over the whomever, so that brings up the question, of the why again, the ss did not move to grab said umbrellaman on elm street........i am still searching, i may contact Vince as he would know, i'm sure it probably is on a report he may have found and issued for us.....thanks..b John; this is all i have found so far, there is i am quite sure a much clearer report on this from Vince, but...will keep looking.......thanks..b http://vincepalamara.blogspot.com/2011/03/chapter-6-security-stripping-further.html Agent Rufus Youngblood revealed that the Secret Service was trained to prevent anyone from holding items in their hands that were suspicious in nature, and that, as an example, if during a bright, sun-shiny day, a man is observed wearing a raincoat, the agents are to react promptly. Former Agent George J. McNally specifically mentioned, “an umbrella carried on a sunny day” as something to be suspicious of in his book. However, during the same weather conditions in Dealey Plaza on 11/22/63, a man is allowed to hold up high an open umbrella---and the agents do nothing...not one agent even mentioned this strange episode. Again, no action was taken against this man, nor was any mention made of him, either written or oral. Ironically, at the James Rowley Beltsville Maryland Secret Service Training Facility, people with umbrellas pop up in mock motorcades to this day! -

Josiah Thompson & the Umbrella man
Bernice Moore replied to J. Raymond Carroll's topic in JFK Assassination Debate
Pat; finally found it...... http://www.jfk-assas...es/umbrella.php Most of the assassination researchers prefer this first theory. But there is another one that cannot be dismissed. Researcher Robert Cutler claimed that the umbrella may have been a dart-firing weapon. This is supported by the testimony of a CIA weapons developer in 1975 (1). He told the Senate's Intelligence Committee that such an umbrella was in use in 1963. He described the weapon as looking like an umbrella. He explained the dart gun was silently operating and fired through the webbing when the umbrella was opened. He also said that the CIA ordered about 50 of such guns and that they were operational in 1963. Furthermore, Cutler theorized that Kennedy's throat wound could have been a wound caused by such a dart, but that it was altered during the Bethesda autopsy. This would also explain Kennedy's lack of motion during the shooting sequence. Many researchers think that since such a weapon existed and its operation is consistent with the actions of Umbrella man, this theory can not be ignored completely. about 50 of them....b -

hi pat; i did reply but it is not showing now.......??.....no you are correct he did not happen to mention the research done in the past, tons of it, nor the study by the gov. committee nor any reference to it's finding, i believe in the link above post, they the cia had 60 of those weapons available at that time, in umbrellas as well as canes, there also within somewhere, the info that the weapon had been used in europe to assassinate, a man, name gone sorry, i find his deliberate ommission and imo it is to be so apparent seeing it was his discovery all those years ago, therefore he certainly would have been more than aware of the findings released many years ago....to me this is like some who only produce the doc that agrees with their theory or finding, i was and am not impressed by such omission by dr.thompson....nor a guffaw attitude towards it..as it certainly was possible not, saying, halo !!!!!that it happened, but the gov proved for us, it was a possible through the use of a cia umbrella weapon system....thanks b http://www.ratical.o...lle/JFK/TUM.txt The following article appeared in the June 1978 issue of "Gallery Magazine," and is reprinted here with permission of Mr. Sprague. The possibility that a very rare and special secret weapon system, developed by the CIA at Fort Detrick, Maryland, was used to immobilize JFK, and thus ensure the success of "the turkey shoot" carried out in Dealey Plaza is explored in great detail below. Consider also that until the day of the JFK assassination in 1963, there was *no place* that *anybody* outside of the very small CIA and Special Forces group (perhaps as many as twenty people) could get access to that flechette-launching weapon system or anything like it. To arrive at a solution to a murder as enigmatic and convoluted as that of JFK, we must confront the existence of the netherworld of secret operations carried out by covert agencies within our own government: "We have to start thinking like the CIA, people. . . . Black is white, and white is black." --ratitor _____________________________________________________________________________ November 22, 1963, the day President Kennedy was slain, was bright and sunny in Dallas. Why, then, was there a young man with an open umbrella on Elm Street, less than 30 feet from the President's car as it slowly passed by?
