The Kennedy Assassination: New Details About the Transfer of Power

The Kennedy Assassination: New Details About the Transfer of Power

Commented Nov 03, 2009 at 14:24:51 in Books

“To be that certain about something seems strange to me. Oswald worked for the CIA, Ruby the Mafia. Oswald's diary as well as Sirhan Sirhan 's and Albert Bremner all had the similar writing style as E Howard Hunt- a friend of Nixons. Oswald was a lousy shot that was able to hit very accurately a moving target. Many eye witnesses at that time died violent deaths be they murdered or 'accidents' Ruby hated the Kennedys because they were investigating the Mafia. How can you be so certain-its like you do not want to believe the worst which is that it was a coup.”

“Posner's book has been widely criticzed for inaccuracies even by people who support his conclusion such as Vincent Bugliosi”

“I wrote a post above, don't know if it will go through, about Posner using extensive quotes from a Ruby acquaintance, Tony Zoppi, after Posner knew the guy lied to him.”

“To anyone that believes LHO did it alone please explain why Oswald, Sirhan, and Bremner all kept diaries-very unusual in itself and that the diaries all have the same writing style as E Howard Hunt with even some lines taken from his own novels word for word-See Gore Vidal-the novels of E Howard Hunt. Also explain the findings of the final congressional investigation into the assasination under Reagan where new ballistic testings proved that there were two different guns used and when that finding came out the investigation was stopped abruptly. Also Oswald had CIA connections and Ruby mafia and why would a mafiosa be upset about a Kennedy being killed when the mafia hated the Kennedys.”

“To the person who replied to this but it never got posted to call Hunt an educated man speaks volumes of where you are coming from and read Vidal's Novels of E Howrad Hunt and you may change your mind. Again main stream media has ignored this essay even though it originally appeared in the New York Review of Books as has mainstream media ignored the findings of the Congressional commission that said there were two guns involved”

sticksnstones replied on Oct 31, 2009 at 18:56:20

“I don't think E Howard Hunt, an educated man, could possibly have written the rambling, barely literate diary entries of LHO, a paranoid personality who was a ninth grade dropout and the son of a disturbed sociopathic mother. That LHO kept a diary, in and of itself, is nothing unusual and certainly not the smoking gun you cling to.”

“Then how do you explain the last investigation into the Kennedy assaination where new ballistic test proved that there were two guns used why did the Reagan admin shut the investigation down. Also how do you eexpalin as Gore Vidal has pointed out that Oswald Sirhan and Bremner all had diaries-unusual in itself and the diaries have the same writing style as E Howard Hunt. When theCIA was into assasinations their manual said to plant diaries on patsys so that the real assasins could get away. If you are using Posners book it is very inaccurate and even Bugliosi said it was a shoddy work”

“I had read a lot about the assaination before JFK came out and I thought Stone's m ovie was as close to the truth as anyone has gotten. I also found the media response to the movie bizarre, I even remember watching the news where a newscaster said 'Whatever you do do not believe this movie' and this was in the days before cable news. With all the lies that have been made about the Kennedy family over the years no newscaster ever spoke directly into the camera and said do not believe these lies but whena movie comes out that is very close to the truth then the news people tell us not to believe it. VERY BIZARRE.”

Robert hawk replied on Oct 30, 2009 at 20:01:32

“LOL

Sam Donaldson confronted Stone when the movie was released that the film was wrong when it said the phones went dead in DC. Sam said he was in DC at the time and the phones DID NOT go out.

Stone, red-faced, said he would check ino it but Sam pointed out the movie waas already out!

BTW, LHO was rated as a "Marksman"- he frequently got 49 out of 50 points in "rapid fire" moving targets.

Not quite "maggie's drwaers" as Stone had people believe.

And that's just the beginning!”

“And Robert you need to look at who financed those non-conspiracy books and then wonder about their findings. I do that all the time when Itry to find the truth. Vincent bugliosi is going to sayingOswald was alone because he is conservative. The book funded by Readers Digest before it came out I predicted they would claim it was Castro and lo and behold thats what they concluded.”

“There is a gut wrenching scene wriiten by Teddy White if I can recall with Jackie talking to JFK's body in the hospital where she let out all her grief telling a dead jack how much she loved him and kissing his feet-absoultely heart wrenching in the emotions that White evokes of that scene that he witnessed.”

“Richard Nixon when asked where he had been the day Kennndy was killed told a reporter that he could not remember. They had investigative reporters in those days and the reporter checked around and found out that Nixon had been in Dallas the same day.”

“The fact that you believe otherwise is a reflection of your own. Four of the people on the Warren Commission said that they were not given all the facts at that time. Gerald Ford admits that the CIA withheld a lot of info from the commission for''national security' reasonS and one of the seven on the commission was Allen Dulles A CIA man. A later government commission criticized the Warren Commisssion for not exploring if there were more people involved. That same commission then did new ballistic tests that seemed to prove there were two guns involved and that commsiion was then disbanded.

“Read Gore Vidal's essay The NOvels of E Howard Hunt. THe novels has the same writing style acoording to Vidal as to the diaries left behind by Oswald, Sirhan and the guy who shot Wallace. He then asked why would three supposed assasins have diaries in the first place and then refers to the CIA book on assainations where they would plant a diary on someone who would take the rap for the assasination while the real assasins got free. Also explain why would Ruby shoot Oswald when Ruby hated the Kennedys.”

“According to Gore Vidal- Oswald, Sirhan and the gentleman who shot George Wallace all had the same writing style and that style matched that of E Howard Hunt -one of the Watergate folk who wrote mystery novels-as Vidal points out in his essay what is the chance of all three asssins having a diary in the first place not to mention that all three lift sentencess directly out of E Howard Hunts novels. His essay then goes on to point out that a CIA manual on assainations recommends planting diaries on certain individuals to implicate them in the assaination.”

Michael Jackson's Disturbing Poem

Commented Mar 09, 2009 at 22:38:16 in Home

“I guess you define 'creepy' as someone who has spent millions of dollars helping sick children all over the world. The media has made him creepy in order to increase their coffers. Books have been wirtten for profit. Lawsuits have been thrown at him all in the name of people making money off him. He was found innocent and as far as I am concerned he is innocent. The real creepy is how many people want him to be guilty.”

“Because he said ON TV that he enjoys taking children that are not his own into his bed, all while holding he hand and cuddling with an 11 year-old boyt that also wasn't his. Trial or not, it's creepy. Very, very creepy.”

“He was not found "innocent". He was found not guilty. And he paid big bucks to other families to make things like this go away. Even if he didn't commit any crimes, you can't deny he's one creepy MF, inviting kids to sleep over, looking like some Lovecraftian creature. Oh, and OJ was found "innocent" too, but he still paid serious cash for wrongful death in a civil case.”
