Motives for Killing Kennedy

I continue to look at what I preceive to be the obvious now.

Today, many people believe that the Warren Commission should have been named the McCloy Commission.

McCloy seems to have had extraordinary prescience about the creation of the CIA, since he masterminded the extraction and sub rosa preservation from the doomed OSS of the very units and personnel that would turn in their uniforms for suits and slink off into the world under, literally, the cloak and dagger that Truman passed to Admiral Souers on 24 January 1946 as the first Director of Central Intelligence—then heading the Central Intelligence Group (CIG), soon to be rechristened as CIA.

According to Mae Brussell, when the war ended, McCloy had helped hide and shield Klaus Barbie—"butcher of Lyons"—and other fun goosesteppers from the French, aided and abetted by one Private Henry Kissinger of the 370th Counter Intelligence Corps at Obergammergau.

McCloy's Georgetown Set cronies around 1947 of course included Frank Wisner, Richard Bissell, Desmond FitzGerald, Tracy Barnes, Clark Clifford, Walt Rostow, Eugene Rostow, Cord Meyer, James Angleton, Allen W. Dulles, and Paul Nitze. Not only do so many of these names swirl like tornado debris around the Kennedy assassination, but fling themselves forward into the CIA's "Pentagon Papers" op that set up the CIA's "Watergate" fraud.

Bissell in 1954 stepped away from the Ford Foundation to become "special assistant" to Allen Dulles, and McCloy stepped in, becoming its new president. Having been Assistant Secretary of War, president of the World Bank, High Commissioner of occupied Germany, chairman of Rockefeller's Chase Manhattan Bank, and Wall Street attorney for the "seven sisters" oil companies, McCloy knew where all the bodies were buried. He wasted no time dolling up the Ford Foundation to be CIA's mistress, setting up an administrative unit specifically to deal with CIA, and heading a three-man "consultation committee" with CIA that provided a conduit cover for funds.

Although there's much more that could be said about Mr. McCloy and his intimate relationship with CIA (hey, who's your daddy?), perhaps for now this is a windy enough way of saying: "You might be onto something."

The image below shows McCloy in the middle and on the far right is Henry Stimson. Anyone know who the other men are?

Of course General George Patton on the left.
