No can do.
At least you've tried.

I imagine the Forum software would need to be replaced or at the least upgraded somehow to allow for better searches. The moderators are here to ensure that members post according to the Forum's rules. Administrators are the "owners" of the Forum. They may have better abilities to change the Forum's software.

GERMAN CONNECTIONS TO THE ASSASSINATION OF JFK
- The US Joint Chiefs of Staff and top military generals were at a meeting at the Pentagon with visiting German military staff at the time of the assassination of President Kennedy. The meeting was interrupted by the announcemet about the assassination and then resumed.
- President Kennedy repeatedly questioned, at the time of the Cuban Missile Crisis, what the Russians in Berlin would be if we invaded Cuba.
- William Harvey, Shackley, Morales and other CIA officers in the Cuban program came fresh from cold war operations against the Russians in Berlin.
- Frank Bender, of Bay of Pigs fame, was previously assigned to German operations, and may have been German.
- Some of those who assisted LHO and family when they first arrived from USSR were associated with Project Paperclip or the Gehlen organization, former Nazi operations and networks revived by the CIA.
- The assassination rifle was first, and apparently mistakenly identified as a German Mauser.
- Bradley E. Ayers claims that a CIA officer named "Karl," of German extraction, and assistant to Gordon Campbell, died in a strange helicopter accident in Florida.
- According to Evan Thomas (Washington Monthly – Dec. 95), Castro's DGI were trained by East German intelligence agency.
- Gen. Walker, who was shot at on April 10, 1963, was stationed in Germany when he distributed right-wing propaganda to his troops, which led to his dismissal.
- Wim., who bought into the stories of James Files and Judith Baker, is from Germany.
- The co-producers, with Gus Russo, of a German documentary film on the assassination, supports the cover-story that Castro was behind the assassination.
- Marita Lorenz, Castro/Sturgis mistress, daughter of captain of German tourist cruise ship that put into Havana.
- Other 1,2,3
Wim (Willem) Dankbaar is from the Netherlands.

Last night I saw a documentary on the Discovery (Science?) Channel. This documentary made me think of the issues at hand in this topic, as it seems to be spot on with what Tony Frank has been saying.
This documentary dealt with "mole hunter" James J. Angleton (and his failure to expose any large scale KGB infiltraion of the CIA). Also this documentary dealt largely with the fact that there were, in fact, infiltrators in the CIA (mainly one was covered) and on the other hand there were several moles working for the US in Russia. Many (or all) of those working for the US were eventually exposed and killed/deported due to the actions of Aldrich Ames.
He is imprisoned for the rest of his life for selling top secret information to the Soviet's and to Russia.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aldrich_Ames
I wonder if Tony Frank is covering this issue in his book?

Dear Mr. Plumlee,
Thank you for your reply and clarification.
This Forum (JFK section alone) contains over 80,000 individual posts. Most of these (I guess about 60,000) were posted before moderators were appointed to the Forum. Moderators were appointed roughly one year ago.
It would be a huge undertaking to review all old posts on this Forum. This is why posts, such as the one you posted today (from the year 2005), have not been edited.
Sincerely,
Antti Hynonen

Dawn Meredith posted: Tosh re-posted an old post by Hemming where he called Tosh names and used the A word. Tosh was edited. I understand the rules and abide by them. His point is that people here are calling him a xxxx, by implication and the mods say nothing, but if he posts the A word he is put on moderation. Perhaps he is being overly sensitive about this point (the A word stuff). But he has taken a lot of time this last week to try to respond with real and useful information. He's answered questions. Specific questions with specific answers. But the continual nitpitcking has gotten old for me. And I see that it has for him as well. Seems he can't win.
Dawn
Tosh is not on permanent moderation. I have not threatened to request that he be placed under moderation. As far as I know this is not the issue. As moderators, we have to edit posts which contain bad language, ok, at times we miss a few posts and would appreciate members pointing those posst out to us, via reporting them.
On a different note. If there are posts which a memebr deems hurtful, mean or otherwise inappropriate, please report such posts. I have had two reports from Tosh. Both for the same post - and yes, they were reports for his own post. I pointed out earlier, that he may edit his own posts. Members are under control (normally) of what is posted under their individual membership accounts. I.e. no need to report ones' own posts.
Kathy Beckett posted: This is quite OK by me, however, I am unclear at this point where the real problem lies. And because of the above, I am answering on the board, which I don't care to do, but someone needs to say something.Me too.

Dear Mr. Plumlee,
For some reason you can not receive personal messages. So here is my reply to you.
Thank you for your reports. I have now edited the not permitted curse words from the post you reported. Unfortunately we can not allow cursing on the Forum as this is an educational forum for students and teachers.
See rule:
http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/index.ph...amp;hl=Swearing
You reported a post of your own. You can of course edit your own posts yourself, and therefore reporting your own posts is unnecessary. In my posting from earlier, (replying to the double standards, you raised), I mentioned that members ought to report posts which are offensive or otherwise in violation of Forum rules, by this I of course meant that members ought to report posts by other members, but I guess this works as well though.
As a reply to your question:"If you want me to get off this forum and not "breath your air" or help in any way..., then just tell me. And I am gone."
Please don't get me (or other moderators) wrong, we are not trying to chase you off the Forum in any way, we have been given this moderation task with a goal to keep members adhering to Forum rules, that's all we're trying to do.
Kind regards,
Antti Hynonen

No double standards here.
Report the post(s) with the offensive langauge and one of the moderators will edit it. You may use the "Report" function, visible on the left hand side of each post.

This thread has resulted in numerous reports. It is apparent that many of the members participating in this thread have a hard time focusing on discussing the issue at hand, and resort in personal insults instead.
If this continues it is likely that this thread will be locked. If the problem persists after that on other threads, other, more direct moderation measures will be taken.

I have been a bit confused by the known David Sanchez Moralez photos. Some show a man of average (or below) in height, average build, some seem to show a different man. Also his description was something like 6'5", muscular dark skinned, indian looking.
Now, the man filmed at the Ambassador hotel (RFK) is clearly taller than 6' (judging from the folks around him) somewhat indian looking, dark complected, muscular or "big". He is identified as David Sanchez Morales by two people he used to work with. The only logical reasoning can be that these two descriptions of David Sanchez Morales are those of 2 different people.
I wonder why the people interviewed in Shane's film were not shown and asked to comment on the other photos of David Sanchez Morales (showing a shorter, older man).
Did both work for the CIA?
In Shane's film the other CIA suspects are examined as well. An explanation is given that there was a convention of sales people at the Hotel (for the Bulova watch company). Some of these persons are named and their photos are shown. Their known photos do not match at all (IMO) those of the suspicious men filmed at the Ambassador.

Philip,
I believe this was looked into by someone from the Dealey Plaza UK group (his name escapes me). He concluded (as I recall) that the timing of the release of the information in New Zealand did not differ from the US timing.

Who was in the follow-up car (QM) in the back seats? Was Dave Powers there?

James Files drawing is not correct in the least Antti....
The detail has been copied from a photo
that has been taken some years since.....
That is not how the view appeared that day from behind the fence......
on Nov.22.63.......not at all.......
There was no separate pole with the parking sign, the sign was attached to the light post.
The light post was on the outside of the sidewalk, next to the street, not on the grass......
Compare for yourselves..
Many things have changed
again and again, since that day within Dealey.....
Thanks....
B......
Bernice,
Quite so. You said what I meant, and with more detail.
Thanks for adding that.

What are you trying to say?
If you have a question regarding this why don't you PM me?
-
Just to add something that may be obvious, but I want to say it.
That James Files drawing (the one with some of the fence showing, the tree, roadsign etc.) is drawn from a photograph. It just has too much accurate detail to be drawn from memory. No doubt about it.

Terry Adams Posted Today, 12:43 PM
"in Marina's recent interview with Vincent Bugliosi she made it clear that she does not believe that Lee shot Kennedy but is still convinced that LHO shot at Walker because, "he (LHO) told me so."
I always felt that Marina was pressured into saying that LHO shot at Walker, but this recent statement by her seems to nullify that. Has anyone (besides Bugliosi), that we know of, spoken to her recently about how she came to justify her change of heart about Oswald's guilt.
Terry
The Walker incident is an interesting case. Mainly because Lee Oswalds name has been brought up as the possible assailant. Personally, I think it is possible that Lee did the shooting.
If this is true, most interesting would be to find out who the others were, that were spotted at the scene, fleeing (with Lee Oswald?) in the two cars leaving the site.
I am willing to bet that their names have already been discussed in this case.

Recently some members have engaged in posting excessive amounts of off-topic posts. The Forum rules (rule (vi)) indicate that posts should be on topic.
Rule quoted below for reference.
(vi) Make sure your postings are relevant to the thread. Please start another thread if your comments do not belong to any existing threads.
I recommend that members who fail to follow this rule repeatedly will be issued a 10% increase in their warning level.

Peter,
You need a multiregion DVD player to play e.g. US DVD's (region 1) on a european DVD player (region 2 encoding). Multiregion "hacks" are readily available for some/many DVD players, usually available on the internet via a google search. The "hack" encompasses usually one of the following procedures:
* A series of codes to be pressed via the remote control the unit. Tried this, ok.
* the downloading of a software and the "burning" of it onto a CD-rom or DVD-R. Then reading the disc in the player of course. Tried this, ok.
* a more complex hack is where you are actually required to perform some welding and removing/adding of circuits from inside the player (too complicated for me).
I hacked all my players to play all area codes.
In fact I recently ordered this dvd from the US through amazon.com and should receive the DVD within a week or so.

On another thread I recently made a post asking members not to threaten other members on this Forum. I particularly mentioned the types of threats that were recently visible on this thread.
The consequence I said, would be that I'd send a request to John Simkin to have any such members placed on permanent moderation.
This request, I have now put forward.
I repeat, do not threaten fellow members or anyone else on this Forum.
THIS IN TOTALLY INSANE. NOW THE MODERATORS ARE DISRUPTING THE THREAD. I ASKED TIM TO STOP DIVERTING THE THREAD AND TRYING TO DERAIL IT BY ENDLESSLY POSTING ON SEVERAL WITH OFF-TOPIC AND NAGGING REMARKS. I HAVE TRIED SENDING SUCH 'REPORTS' TO THE MODERATORS, BUT 99% OF THE TIME NOTHING IS DONE. THEN HE STARTS WITH THE UNTRUE, ALREADY DISCUSSED NEGATIVE INFORMATION ON ME - WHICH IS NOT RELEVANT TO THE TREAD; NOT TRUE; DISCUSSED BY HIM, ME AND OTHERS ON ANOTHER THREAD AND ONLY HIS WAY TO INTIMIDATE AND HURL VENOM AT ME. SO HE GETS SOME 'BREAK' BECAUSE HE DIDN'T SAY HE'D DO IT...HE JUST DOES IT?! AND BECAUSE I DIDN'T GO THROUGH THE 'REPORT' PROCESS - I THINK I MIGHT EVEN HAVE - DON'T REMEMBER TO TELL THE TRUTH. HE AND OTHERS HAVE EVEN THREATENED TO SUE PEOPLE ON THE FORUM IN COURT...AND NONE WERE BANNED. I THINK THE IMMODERATORS SHOULD LOOK AT ALL THE FACTS, MAYBE ASK WHAT IS GOI
G ON - MAYBE READ THE POSTS BEFORE THE ONE THEY FOCUS UPON, AND ONE ABOVE HAS AN AXE T
GRIND WITH ME ANYWAY, AND WOULD TAKE DELIGHT IN NEGATIVE THINGS HAPPENING TO ME
SO VERY GOOD GANG - GRATZ AND THE IMMODERATORS HAVE DERAILED THE THREAD ON PLUMLEE.
I'D ALSO ADD THAT ANY IMMODERATOR WHO PROPOSES PERMANANT BANNING BEFORE TEMPORARY BANNING OR BANNING WITHOUT CAUSE SHOULD THEMSELVES BE BANNED. [POWER SEEMS TO CORRUPT]. AND HOW ABOUT LOOKING AT A PERSONS GENERAL DEPORT ON THE FORUM. I DON'T KNOW IF SOME OF THE IMMODERATORS ARE MYOPTIC AND ONLY LOOK AT THE REPORT BEFORE THEM [iT SEEMS OFTEN SO] WITHOUT TAKING INTO ACCOUNT THE GREATER PICTURE. I SEE SOME ON THE FORUM WHO ONLY HURL NEGATIVE, DISRUPTIVE AND INVECTIVE AND THEY SEEM TO REMAIN. WHEN A NORMAL POSTER RESPONDS TO THEIR ACTIVITIES THEY OFTEN GET THREATENED BY THE IMMODERATORS.
SO GROUP YOU GO FIND OUT ABOUT PLUMLEE YOURSELVES.
Apparently your message above is primarily about your concern that the previous posts were on the Plumlee thread and that it was being disrupted due to this. Fair enough. I have moved them to the moderation section of the Forum.
With regards to nothing being done, I respectfully disagree. I tried sending you some PM's as a response to the action I have taken based on your numerous reports, however, your inbox was too full. Sorry.
I don't need to analyze any groups of threads or dozens of posts to see what moderation action I ought to undertake, typically I look at one post at a time to determine if it is ok, or if it is in violation of Forum rules.

Steve, who wrote that handwritten memo? Do we know?
No, with no From and no To, it's impossible to know.
I ran the RIF number through NARA and just this one record shows up.
It's signed, "S", but that could be anybody.
I thought of something last night. Is there any indication that George de Mohrenshildt knew Russian?
Why would somebody write a note to someone in a language they didn't know?
Steve Thomas
Steve,
DeMohrenschildt most certainly spoke Russian, it was his "mother tongue", or native language. In fact he spoke several langauges.
http://jfkassassination.net/russ/testimony/demohr_g.htm
Mr. De MOHRENSCHILDT. My mother was Russian, of Polish and Hungarian descent.
Mr. JENNER. And the nationality of your father?
Mr. De MOHRENSCHILDT. He was also of Russian, Swedish, German descent.
-------
Mr. JENNER. You, yourself, have the command of at least four, maybe five languages. May I see if I can recall them. English?
Mr. De MOHRENSCHILDT. Yes; if you consider it a command.
Mr. JENNER. Yes; I do. German?
Mr. De MOHRENSCHILDT. German, not too well.
Mr. JENNER. Spanish?
Mr. De MOHRENSCHILDT. Spanish.
Mr. JENNER. French?
Mr. De MOHRENSCHILDT. Yes.
Mr. JENNER. Russian?
Mr. De MOHRENSCHILDT. Russian; yes.
Mr. JENNER. And I suppose a smattering of a number of other languages.
Mr. De MOHRENSCHILDT. Yes.

I think this is a very important question.
Besides the Man in the Brown Sportscoat, witnesses saw a man with a white shirt who was holding a rifle, and when he bent down had a bald spot on the top of his head.
Oswald had on a dark shirt and doesn't have a bald spot, so who was that guy?

Isn't this the really interesting part we should focus on though?
"The surveillance was mishandled and the Cubans diappeared" "The case was lost and that was the end of it,"
Or was it the end of it? Did the same "Cubans" show up in Dallas for 11/22/63? For Watergate?
Tim Gratz Posted Yesterday, 07:00 AM"News of the Cuban nationals triggered an investigation but, Bolden charges, the surveillance was mishandled and the Cuban suspects disappeared and were never identified.
"No one was sent to the room to fingerprint it or get an ID. The case was lost and that was the end of it," he said. "

Bill,
Do not take snippets out of my personal message to you out of context here. I made a general statement regarding debating and expressing personal views to you, and this comment of mine had nothing to do with David Healy in particular.
