    The Kennedy Assassination Cover-Up

    To get back to Don Gibson, who I would wager, few people on this forum have heard of and even less have read.

    Don Gibson, if you can believe it,  was the first person in the field who truly defined what the Power Elite was at the time of Kennedy's assassination.  But further, along with that, he also took pains to show Kennedy's differences with them.  In this, he was unique.  The problem up until that time was that if one went with people outside the field, like Domhoff, you learned little about Kennedy.  If you went with people inside the field, like Scott and Evica, you would have thought that a nebulous web of the CIA, the Mafia and drug dealers ruled the world.

    What Gibson did is he showed that there was a level above the CIA that no one had really examined. And it was this Ruling Class that had awesome power not just in America, but throughout the world. This figured in disputes with Kennedy in places like Congo and Indonesia.  Where there were not millions, or tens of millions, or hundreds of millions--- but billions on the table.  If Kennedy prevailed, that huge amount would be channeled to the people who lived there; if Kennedy was disposed of, the Power Elite  and their imperial dealings would prevail i.e. they would put in a strong man and rake in the cash from the extravagant wealth to be mined through the abused natives.

    No one before Don Gibson had ever come close to showing this the way he did. Because in Battling Wall Street, he was the first writer who ever really examined Kennedy's economic policies in detail.  The chapter in that book on the Steel Crisis is probably the best examination of that key event in the literature.  Gibson did for Kennedy's economic policies what authors like Mahoney, Muelhenbeck and Rakove did for his foreign policy.  He discovered and described aspects that had been ignored by others and needed to be reassessed in order to really understand what Kennedy was about.  Battling Wall Street is, I think, one of the single most important books about the Kennedy administration. I would recommend to anyone both of his books, which I think were both reissued a few years ago in trade paperback versions.  I  miss his contributions to the case.  A very valuable scholar who really exemplified what that word should mean.

     

     

    This is from George Bush: An Unauthorized Biography

    "MacArthur’s warned that the forces bent on destroying Kennedy were centered in the Wall Street financial community and its various tentacles in the intelligence community."

    This passage identified the Wall Street oligarchy as the main players and its ties to the intelligence community

     

     

     

    Mysterious tape of JFK speaking with Ambassador Henry Cabot Lodge, Jr. about Vietnam

    I'm not well versed on the on the Lodges.  But I thought the were East Coast Establishment Boston Brahmin from the early 1800's.  I thought Henry Cabot Lodge was the incumbent Senator who JFK defeated.  That JFK appointed Ambassador  to Vietnam as a conciliatory effort to him and the right.  A friend of the Dulles's?

    Then he refused to answer JFK's communiqués regarding the proceedings.  Thus ensuring the outcome.  Did JFK appease the military after badgering him to placate them.  Then back off? 

    The book George Bush: An unauthorized biography stated that Lodge was part of Bush's heavy Brown Brothers, Harriman/Skull and Bones Overtone.

    Calvin:

    it would be useful if you elaborated on your question a bit more. Why it is important to answer your question? Is there any lead relevant to the JFKA case that would become evident if your question is answered? 

    I am just asking this question because I notice there is no Asian Americans researchers for this case. I am aware that Kennedy was concerned about China's potential at the time of his death.

    Calvin,

         It's an interesting question, especially when we consider that the main victims of JFK's murder were the millions of people in Southeast Asia who were killed in Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, and Indonesia after 11/22/63-- not to mention the environmental devastation and refugee crises resulting from U.S. bombing campaigns and defoliants!

    I am a Chinese born in America.

    Dallas Mayor Earle Cabell: had to be one man, dismisses right wing as suspect 11/22/63

    Every possible precaution was taken. ??? 

    Every Dallas police officer was on duty ( really? What about Tom Tilson?), several hundred police reservists were on duty, every Sheriff's department officer ( hundreds ) were on duty.

    Sheriff Roger Craig stated that he and his fellow plain clothes, detective officers were told by his boss County Sheriff Bill Decker just two hours before the assassination that they were in no way to take part in the motorcade security.

    Craig also stated in Mark Lane's documentary that he was concerned by the lack of police presence in the motorcade crowd.

    Every possible precaution was taken?

    On their before hand security dry run drives over the motorcade route an untrained high school student probably would have noticed and mentioned all the hundreds of upper floor building windows and the roofs of these buildings as being possible threats in their sniper potential.

    I would have asked what the security protocol was for this real threat scenario.

    Would all these unprecedented police presence personnel include placing even one of them on the 30 or more roofs of these buildings as JFK was driven underneath?

    How about police on the ground being tasked with scanning all the higher floor windows above them ( open ones with red flag urgency ) with binoculars before and during JFK's drive underneath?

    Why not an order that all higher story buildings on the downtown route have no open windows just before and during the motorcade?

    High rise building drive through motorcade security common sense no?

    The crowd thinned out in Dealey Plaza so the lack of but a few DPD officers on the street there besides the motorcade cycle guard seems explanable. I think Arnold Rowland mentioned one? Maybe none?

    Yet, the long stretch of higher than street level tree canopy and picket fence area above the grassy knoll which even a child could see provided a perfect hidden cover shooting position and the parking lot behind this had not one police guard there while JFK passed by?  Police on the over-pass could not even see what was going on there.

    Cabell waxes enthusiastically about the huge loving feeling Dallas had for JFK while at the same time downplaying stark exibitions of anger, hate and violence toward JFK's close confidant Adlai Stevenson just months before in his city with spitting, cursing and protest sign hitting of Stevenson.

    Cabell downplays the extreme right JFK hating organization presence in the Dallas area with it's most powerful and wealthy core centered there.

    Heck, everyone then and now knows Dallas was the capital of the most wealthy, powerful and rabid JFK hating farthest right wing organizations in the country at that time.

    Home to the world's wealthiest JFK hating men like Hunt and Murchison who were also the principle financiers of the JBL, Minute Men and who knows what other JFK hating groups.

    Dallas was even home to JFK and RFK hating and mental institution commitment resentful General Ed Walker!

    Dallas was also widely known as one of the most rabid JFK hating KKK cities as well. Perhaps as many as half the city police force connected with this organization ideologically if not directly?

    JFK knew he was hated to such a vile and extreme way in this part of the country he himself referred to it as "nut country" to his wife Jackie.

    Did Cabell express any JFK respecting concern and reprimand when he saw the incredibly disparaging and threatening JFK ad in his own city's DMN newspaper? How about the hateful and highly enciting "JFK WANTED FOR TREASON" fliers that H.L. Hunt himself was placing under car windshield wiper blades before JFK's arrival in Dallas?

    Why didn't the DPD or FBI or SS immediately track down the creators and distributors of those JFK threatening and hate enciting fliers and newspaper ads?

    The interviewer commends Cabell and his city's police force for their efforts right after the most important security fail in their history. And Cabell promotes this perception shamelessly.

    Wonder if that same TV interviewer would have been so praising of the DPD after Oswald was blown away by an unchecked strip joint owner press crowd infiltrator right in their own DPD building basement while handcuffed to two police escorts just hours after this interview of Cabell? And what Cabell's defense of the DPD would have been?

     

     

     

     

    FBI's Hoover has documented ties to the creators and distributors of those JFK threatening and hate enciting files and newspaper ads.

    Generals / Military High Brass at the JFK autopsy

    Morning guys, 

    I saw a quip on a thread the other day suggesting Curtis Le May was at the Bethesda autopsy, is this just conjecture? Do we know which members of military high brass were in attendance directing or observing the proceedings? If so, what is the source material?

    Thanks

    Chris

    It is not conjecture. It is for real. Hard evidence of this is long lost Air Force tapes

    Dallas D.A. Henry Wade's controversial press conference 11/24/63

    Reading Wade's presentation to the press above one must ask, how in the heck did this guy ever ascend to the position of Dallas D.A.?

    That was embarrassingly inarticulate. 

    Constant "uh, uhs ... ", stammering, disjointed sentences, winging broad information answers with incredibly premature fact checking.

    This is no Clarence Darrow.

    New Orleans D.A. Jim Garrison on the other hand WAS impressively articulate.

    Even on a Clarence Darrow level imo. 

    Garrison was extremely well read, well versed and well spoken even when answering questions spontaneously.

     

     

     

    Wade was conservative

    Why were Wade as well as Earle Cabell and Sheriff Decker guests of the Zumora Club (formerly the Anonymous Club until the Appalachian raid) on July 7, 1962.  Joseph Civello and Joe Campisi were prominent members at the weekly Thursday evening meeting at a house north of Love Field for drinks, dinner, discussion and an illegal game of poker.   Per the Dallas Italian American weekly newspaper.

    They were there because they were on the take imo.  Decker was all the way back to the 30's and Benny Binion while he was Chief Deputy Sheriff.  They probably received their payments from a more upper level but were well aware of and familiar with Ruby, who likely paid off the vice squad guys (per one of his strippers).

    Rambling thoughts from what I've read that seemed credible to me.  Still part speculation I realize.

    The mafia has ties to the Dallas Police Department.

    Bill, I've thought of you as more of an expert than myself in many respects now for several years.   But regarding Tyree's statement I have to wonder why Future head of the CIA William Casey would be using this former Green Beret prisoners former Colonel to funnel money to Ruth Paine seven years before the JFK Assassination.  Or how it might relate.  Seems a little far fetched to me.  jmo 

    This is passage from Defrauding America by Rodney Stich: "Bowen said that he reported directly to William Casey in the CIA during the 1960s and 1970s. He indicated that Casey was with the CIA in a covert capacity after World War II and long before becoming its director in 1981."

    "Casey was part of the OSS during World War II until it was disbanded by President Truman in 1947. He then became a covert operative for the CIA with no publicized connection to the Agency until 1981, when President Reagan appointed him Director of the CIA."

    Secret Service agents told me that JFK did NOT order them off his limo!!

    Dillon, a former OSS man, does make one wonder.

    This is an passage from the book  George Bush: The Unauthorized Biography: "MacArthur warned that the forces bent on destroying Kennedy were centered in the Wall Street financial community and its various tentacles in the intelligence community." Dillon's family was involved in Wall Street themselves.
