Leslie - where did the document in question originate? This thread starts with an Albarelli email to you and Alan kent about this document in which he writes in parentheses “this from you (sic) the Angleton family member’ as if to identify the origin of the document. Who is ‘you’ referring to? What does ‘sic’ mean here? Did Hank write that? Who is the Angleton family member? Why is the document no longer available? I’m sure this all brings back sad memories for you, occurring as it did right before Hank fell ill.

Rob Reiner talks about two Oswalds
Paul Brancato replied to Jim Hargrove's topic in JFK Assassination Debate
Surely you are not suggesting that Oswald knew he was the designated patsy beforehand? Who do you suppose ordered him to stay inside? -
Let’s solve this LeMay question now.
Paul Brancato replied to Cory Santos's topic in JFK Assassination Debate
I thought that Lemnitzer stood as a character witness in the Senate hearings on Walker, whether he was required at the hearings or not. But of course I may not be correct. -
Oswald: a possible love story (not Marina)
Paul Brancato replied to Greg Doudna's topic in JFK Assassination Debate
I like the theory too. Gotta wonder if someone somewhere has those dick Clark show tickets -
I read quite a bit of this way too long article, and then got curious and followed some links on the right side of the page. I was unfortunately introduced to some horribly anti-semitic crap, which likewise took some deep reading but is undeniably true, and I’m not confused between anti-Semitism and criticism of Israel. I know from first hand accounts of survivors what happened. Perhaps you were not so privileged.

I like the spelling LaFitte

It’s interesting to me that 60 years later we still don’t know some crucial and important info that should not have been a mystery. -

Gerry - why would Jackie care if Addison’s disease was revealed? While he was alive maybe. Don’t you think she cared who done it, that her husband was gone, that LBJ was calling the shots? -

Hi Gene - thanks for the post. I read through the link you quote from which Larry posted. Plus you added a few more points from Jim D. I do wonder what Burkley kept to himself about the number of bullets etc. He must have been under enormous pressure that day, and surely saddened by the death of JFK. Do you know if his private papers are in a collection somewhere? -

But surely it was not Burkley’s decision to make. H wasn’t calling the shots. Is that, in your view, a farfetched statement? -

Burkley: ‘The coroner attempted to have the body retained there for a postmortem and investigation of the assassination. That was perfectly understandable, in that this condition existed. However, the people involved were not just anyone, it was the President of the United States. Mrs. Kennedy was going to just stay where she was and travel with the President at any time. It was felt advisable to return the President to the Washington area as soon as possible because of the uncertainty as to what else was happening in Dallas’. This interview from 1967, done for the historical record and donated to the JFK library, does not mention the struggle at gunpoint to take the body from Parkland onto AF 1. It does not appear to be under oath, is not questioning by an investigatory committee. And it doesn’t say what you originally suggested it did. Burkley’s exact language here appears very carefully constructed, does it not? -

Did any secret service agents testify to removing JFK from Parkland at gunpoint? -

Larry - thanks for straightening me out about JFK’s doctor being behind the forceful removal of JFK’s body from Parkland. -

I really appreciate you posting this. Sheehan gets little love from the assassination community at large, which has always puzzled me. In your synopsis you state that Nixon sent the CIA chief of security to meet with Trafficante. Is he identified? -

Paul Brancato replied to Vince Palamara's topic in JFK Assassination Debate
It seems to me that we are missing the implications of Vince’s post here. First of all, why the back and forth about agents vs assets? Clearly the secret service officer identified him as an agent with ID. So why was he there? Then there is the FBI agent who is identified in the YouTube video as trying to get into the operating theater. Did I get that right Vince? You speculate he may have planted 399. here is the question I have for you Vince - who drew the guns that forced the Parkland doctors to give up the body of JFK? Was it Secret Service? If so who, and under whose orders? We know the story of LBJ ordering this by telephone, but If LBJ did order it, who carried it out? And isn’t it possible that LBJ was ordered by parties unknown to do so? -
NBC New Story on Remaining Documents
Paul Brancato replied to James DiEugenio's topic in JFK Assassination Debate
Republican congressman from AZ - last summer. We haven’t heard much about it since. -
Jim - my post about Nazis in King Farouk’s government was not meant to derail your thread, but rather hopefully to deepen it. Alongside everything you mention about Nasser there is this history, and the successful operation to destroy Egypt’s nuclear ambitions by Mossad, using the very Nazi that set up Egypt’s post war program in the first place. In your reading did Nasser ever address any of this?
