Paul, It's been quite awhile since I've looked at it, so I'd have to read it again to refresh specific info. For that time period, when most journalists and all media toed the WC line, for these researchers to bring up the questions they did, really bucked the trend. What I found interesting in just taking a quick glance without reading, are how the researchers such as Penn Jones and others, noticed the multiple mysterious deaths of persons who all had some kind of knowledge related to the assassination. Such as the meeting in Ruby's appt. on 11/24/63 when 3 at the meeting, Jim Koethe, Bill Hunter, and Tom Howard, all died mysterious deaths. Whenever any of these people investigated, such as when amateur researcher Shirley Martin, a housewife from Oklahoma, made trips to Dalls to interview witnesses, the police would tail her, openly following her around, and stick to her until she left Dallas. The same happened with others investigating in the area. The Dallas police would constantly surveil anyone coming in to investigate. Someone clearly didn't want anybody poking around.

Did the Dallas Radical Right kill JFK?
Roger DeLaria replied to Paul Trejo's topic in JFK Assassination Debate
I believe that Hunt stopped publicly supporting Walker, as did many others, after the riots, although I could be mistaken. Did he still support Walker privately? I don't know. It seemed many people walked away from Walker.- 1,044 replies

Did the Dallas Radical Right kill JFK?

Yeah, I just noticed that. I think I conflated the 2. I meant the Air Force Colonel as Lansdale. Ooops! Lansdale was definitely Dulles' go-to guy.- 1,044 replies

I wonder if "the best man we have", according to Dulles, was Lansdale. He wore an Air Force uniform, at least at that point I think he did.- 1,044 replies

Did the Dallas Radical Right kill JFK?
Roger DeLaria replied to Paul Trejo's topic in JFK Assassination Debate
Speaking of right wing characters, I recently picked up a copy of Ted Dealey's "Diaper Days Of Dallas". Should be an interesting read. Dealey certainly didn't care for Kennedy. His paper was a major source of much anti-JFK press at the time. He had some strong words for JFK at a White House luncheon in front of many other area leaders, which I think lost Ted some support.- 1,044 replies

Did the Dallas Radical Right kill JFK?
Roger DeLaria replied to Paul Trejo's topic in JFK Assassination Debate
I agree with you about an Oswald/Ruby relationship. I believe they knew each other but didn't have to be friendly, it doesn't really matter for the killing. I feel the same way about the Oswald sightings before the assassination. Too many to be mistaken, one maybe I could buy. The knoxville visit is intriguing, I've never seen that before. I think the USSR bit might have been to draw attention, it looks almost to be an afterthought, like its out of place in a way. I wonder if this was an attempt to be a tie to his time in the Soviet Union where he was to give secrets to the USSR. Sheepdipping, part of an operation?- 1,044 replies

I also just picked up a copy of Dr. Walt Brown's "Trachery In Dallas" that Paul T. spoke well of. Eventually I'll get to that. Too many things to do.- 1,044 replies

Did the Dallas Radical Right kill JFK?
Roger DeLaria replied to Paul Trejo's topic in JFK Assassination Debate
I remember reading but can't remember where, someone referring to LBJ as a "nazi of the worst order". There was his public self, and then the way he really was, apparently. Ties between LBJ and Walker would be real interesting.- 1,044 replies

Did the Dallas Radical Right kill JFK?

Thomas Masen involved with Cuban gun-running. I understood Jack Ruby was involved with Cuban gun operations. against Batista, then Castro. Did Jack Ruby and Masen cross paths? Ruby and Oswald apparently know each other. Oswald gets impersonated here and there. Masen, part of Walker's entourage, looks like Oswald. A few degrees of separation? Hmmm.... Masen seems like he knows something. Maybe, maybe not?- 1,044 replies

Jason, I'm just starting Walt Brown's "The People vs. Lee Harvey Oswald." Looks to be an interesting read. -

Did the Dallas Radical Right kill JFK?

I just got back to Dallas 1963 a few days ago, and am getting close to the end. It's a good snapshot of the ugly environment in Dallas at the time.- 1,044 replies

This is in my view the most important tip received from a member of the general public. This letter from Dr Martin Miller has it all spelled out 5 months after the assassination: Jason, This is very interesting indeed. Thanks for posting it, and for going through all the documents.- 1,044 replies

Number of shots in Dealy Plaza?

I like what Fletcher Prouty said in regard to the number of shots in Dealey Plaza: "As many as it took." -

Did the Dallas Radical Right kill JFK?
Roger DeLaria replied to Paul Trejo's topic in JFK Assassination Debate
No, I haven't finished it yet. It is a good snapshot of the climate in Dallas during that time. I temporarily put it aside because I'm going through the masters thesis by Chris Cravens that Paul T. mentioned some pages back, "Edwin A. Walker and the Right Wing in Dallas, 1960-1966. I got it through interlibrary loan via my local library.- 1,044 replies

Did the Dallas Radical Right kill JFK?
Roger DeLaria replied to Paul Trejo's topic in JFK Assassination Debate
Paul, You make some very good points. The radical right, most certainly thought JFK was an appeaser and had sold out the US to the "reds". To them, Kennedy was a traitor. They wanted to set the clock back. Granted many others outside of the radical right also thought JFK was an appeaser. Interesting tidbits about Hargis. That gives a good example to the motto: "Do as I say, not as I do."- 1,044 replies

Did the Dallas Radical Right kill JFK?
Roger DeLaria replied to Paul Trejo's topic in JFK Assassination Debate
During this 1960s time period, the radical right movement most certainly had a lot in common with protestant fundamentalism, and their common battle against communist atheism. I think the most outward symbols of this are persons like Billy James hargis, Gerald L.K. Smith, Kent & Phoebe Courtney, others. Cerainly less visible person could be John Foster & Allen Dulles, many of the Georgetown set with their wasp background. JFK being Catholic was a huge thing. All these groups/individuals whether east coast protestant or deep south/southwest protestant all had a common thought that liberals, catholics, democrats, etc. were all "communist", and it was like a dominoe theory.- 1,044 replies
