  1. MLK's prophecy was in 1955, Emmitt Till was murdered in 1955. Here is a song written about Emmett Till by Dylan. It was down in Mississippi not so long ago When a young boy from Chicago town stepped through a Southern door This boy's dreadful tragedy I can still remember well The color of his skin was black, and his name was Emmett Till Some men they dragged him to a barn and there they beat him up They said they had a reason, but I can't remember what They tortured him and did some things, too evil to repeat There were screaming sounds inside the barn There was laughing sounds out on the street Then they rolled his body down a gulf, amidst a bloody red rain And they threw him in the waters wide to cease his screaming pain The reason that they killed him there, and I'm sure it ain't no lie Was just for the fun of killing him and to watch him slowly die And then to stop, the United States of yelling for a trial Two brothers they confessed that they had killed poor Emmett Till But on the jury, there were men who helped the brothers commit this awful crime And so this trial was a mockery, but nobody there seemed to mind I saw the morning papers, but I could not bear To see the smiling brothers walkin' down the courthouse stairs For the jury found them innocent, and the brothers they went free While Emmett's body floats the foam of a Jim Crow southern sea If you can't speak out against this kind of thing, a crime that's so unjust Your eyes are filled with dead men's dirt, your mind is filled with dust Your arms and legs they must be in shackles and chains, and your blood it must refuse to flow For you to let this human race fall down so God-awful low! This song's just a reminder to remind your fellow man That this kind of thing still lives today in that ghost-robed Ku Klux Klan But if all of us folks that thinks alike, if we give all we could give We'd make this great land of ours a greater place to live Songwriters: Bob Dylan.

  2. After reading "Oswald and the CIA" by John Newman, I became convinced that LHO was handled by the CIA. John Newman specializes in History, whereas Norman Mailer is a writer of fiction and a very good one at that. This book you refer to is an exception for Norman Mailer.
  3. Besides firing Dulles, JFK also fired Charles Cabell, who worked directly for Dulles. Charles Cabell's brother, Earle Cabell, was the mayor of Dallas at the time of the JFKA. That is why , I believe, JFK was doomed as soon as he arrived in Dallas.
  4. Steve, this was in the article I referenced above; " His close friend, Deputy Police Chief George L. Lumpkin, and a fellow member of the the 488th Military Intelligence Detachment, drove the pilot car of Kennedy's motorcade. Also in the car was Lieutenant Colonel George Whitmeyer, commander of all Army Reserve units in East Texas. The pilot car stopped briefly in front of the Texas School Book Depository, where Lumpkin spoke to a policeman controlling traffic at the corner of Houston and Elm."
  5. I agree with Steve. FYI, Jack Crichton founded the 488th (https://spartacus-educational.com/JFK488mid.htm). Crichton and the 488th are covered in the " Coup in Dallas" , which I read and recommend. Members of the 488th were in the JFK motorcade in Dallas and may have slowed the motorcade down right in front of the TSBD.
  6. Leslie, how do A. Dulles, Charles Cabell, Earle Cabell and David Atlee Phillips fit into the JFKA? Or, do they?
  7. I believe Ted Schackley ran JMWAVE and Schackley, I believe, reported to Tracy Barnes.
  8. Paul B., this document mentions JM WAVE and Madrid in the same sentence (not sure if this helps). https://www.maryferrell.org/php/cryptdb.php?id=AMCRASH-1
  9. The Wagner group has taken control of the Russian Control Center in charge of the war on Ukraine.
  10. I agree - William King Harvey was critical to the murder of JFK.
  11. The titlw of the Dylan song is Motorpsycho Nightmare (from the Another Side of Bob Dylan album ) Here are the lyrics: " I pounded on a farmhouse, lookin' for a place to stay I was mighty, mighty tired, I had come a long, long way I said, "Hey, hey, in there, is there anybody home?" I was standin' on the steps, feelin' most alone When out comes a farmer, he must have thought that I was nuts He immediately looked at me and stuck a gun into my guts I fell down to my bended knees Sayin', "I dig farmers, don't shoot me, please" He cocked his rifle and began to shout "Are you that travelin' salesman that I have heard about?" I said, "No, no, no, I'm a doctor and it's true I'm a clean-cut kid and I been to college, too" Then in comes his daughter whose name was Rita She looked like she stepped out of La Dolce Vita I immediately tried to cool it with her dad And told him what a nice, pretty farm he had He said, "What do doctors know about farms, pray tell?" I said, "I's born at the bottom of a wishing well" Well, by the dirt 'neath my nails I guess he knew I wouldn't lie He said, "I guess you're tired," he said it kinda sly I said, "Yes, ten thousand miles today I drove" He said, "I got a bed for you underneath the stove Just one condition an' you can go to sleep right now That you don't touch my daughter And in the morning, milk the cows" I was sleepin' like a rat when I heard something jerkin' There stood Rita, lookin' just like Tony Perkins She said, "Would you like to take a shower? I'll show you up to the door" I said, "Oh, no, no, I've been through this before" I knew I had to split, but I did not know how When she said, "Would you like to take that shower now?" Well, I couldn't leave unless the old man chased me out 'Cause I'd already promised that I'd milk his cows I had to say something to strike him very weird So I yelled, "I like Fidel Castro and his beard" Rita looked offended, but she got out of the way As he came chargin' down the stairs Sayin', "What's that I heard you say?" I said, "I like Fidel Castro, I think you heard me right" And I ducked as he swung at me with all his might Rita mumbled somethin' 'bout her mother on the hill As his fist had hit the icebox, he said he's gonna kill me If I don't get out the door in two seconds flat "You unpatriotic, rotten doctor, commie rat" Well, he threw a Reader's Digest at my head and I did run I did a somersault as I seen him get his gun And crashed through the window at a hundred miles an hour And landed fully blast in his garden flowers Rita said, "Come back" and he started to load The sun was comin' up and I was runnin' down the road Well, I don't figure I'll be back there for a spell Even though Rita moved away and got a job at a motel He still waits for me, constant, on the sly He wants to turn me in to the F.B.I. Me, I romp and stomp, thankful as I romp Without freedom of speech I might be in the swamp Songwriters: Bob Dylan. For non-commercial use only. " Feedback
  12. Per Michael Crane's post above, "Didn't the Dallas police dispatcher say get someone on that overpass & see what happened?"
  13. why wasn't there someone on the overpass to begin with?
  14. Michael, the Dallas police were under the jurisdiction of the Mayor of Dallas, who , at the time of the Dealey Plaza Operation, was Earle Cabell, who was a CIA asset and whose brother , Charles Cabell worked for the CIA (A. Dulles). Both A. Dulles and Charles Cabell were fired by JFK for the BOP fiasco.
  15. And, on pages 268-269 of " Coup in Dallas", reference is made to Escalante/ Lafitte/ T. Barnes / Frank Bender.
  16. Paul, I don't know if this helps, but John Newman, on pages 289- 292 of " Into the Storm", wrote about Fabian Escalante .
  17. Fabian Escalante wrote of Frank Bender and Tracy Barnes.. " (2) Fabian Escalante, The Secret War: CIA Covert Operations Against Cuba, 1959-62 (1995) What could go wrong? S. Popular Pages Web Developer: Peter McMillan Contact
  18. After reading " Coup in Dallas" , I do believe in a link to Madrid. But, I have not found anything beyond that very good book.
  19. This document may be relevant to the question that Robert M. poses...https://history.state.gov/historicaldocuments/frus1961-63v10/d291
  20. I agree, also, Paul. Very interesting post.
  21. Here is an interesting artiicle that includes information on Sergio Aracho Smith..https://www.crimemagazine.com/rose-cherami-and-jfk-assassination
  22. Dulles and LeMay were close friends. Burkley was important, I agree. Who was top dog? It does not matter- they were both trying to ensure a certain narrative.
