Being (as you friends will know) a big armchair investigator of various mysteries, I finally broke down and spent some hard-earned Amazon credit on a big fat book, Files on JFK.Just like an "I love you" note from your kid that's all misspelled and smeared with dirt or peanut butter, the message is more important than the presentation.
THIS BOOK NEEDED A COPY EDITOR!
I mean, words are misspelled, the name of Russian premier Khrushchev is spelled "Kroetschov," big blocks of text within emails or letters are printed again after appearing once earlier in the book.
Nevertheless, I can believe that the story in this book MIGHT be the truth.
The big picture is that the JFK assassination originated in elements of CIA and organized crime. The familiar names are named -- David Atlee Philips, Rosetti, Nicoletti, Giancana, George HW Bush, etc the like -- but with insight from James Files aka James Sutton aka a lot more names.
You see, in November 1963 Files was a 21-year-old ex-military guy who had become not only the driver and go-to guy for a Mafia hit man, but also a CIA asset. When CIA and other US intelligence agency members began to percolate angrily over their being "choked off" during the Bay of Pigs aborted invasion, along with other perceived failings in JFK's behavior or character, they decided to do something about it.
So they got together with some of their hand-in-hand friends in the Mafia and did it. This was NOT an agency thing, this was a few guys using their connections. Probably some other acquaintances were drafted in after the fact, presented with the most drastic fait accompli that I, anyway, could imagine.
By this I mean that members of the FBI and the Secret Service also participated in the hiding of evidence, forgeries, and lies. It was the Secret Service that switched the windshields on the "Assassination Lincoln." It was J Edgar Hoover himself who stressed repeatedly on November 22nd (and forever after) how important it was that the country and the world believe that Oswald alone was the patsy -- oops, I mean believe that he was the assassin.
At any rate, this is a long and rambling lead-up to the especiality of THIS book.
And in this book, James Files tells a very credible story of being the (semi-reluctant) shooter on the grassy knoll, behind the picket fence.
In my opinion the single most convincing part of Files's tale refers to the cartridge from the bullet he fired into JFK's right temple. Files says that after firing the head shot, he removed the .222 cartridge and bit it.
Well, in 1987 a guy and his son found a .222 cartridge down a ways in front of the wooden stockade in Dealey Plaza. After Files's story was told in 2004 or 2005, investigators went back to look at that cartridge. After examination from at least one dentist, the indentations previously thought to be "just dents" were found, in fact, to be human teethmarks.
Sounds pretty authoritative to me.
Let me know what YOU think.
Hey Mark,
ReplyDeleteLet you know what I think? I think I like your review. And yes, it needed a copy editor, but english is not my native tongue. But who cares? It's the information that counts. Ask me anything you want.

Spooks, Hoods & The Hidden Elite
Who doesn't like a good conspiracy story? And are they not even better if they are educational and non fiction?
Hello, my name is Wim Dankbaar. I am 46 and from the Netherlands. I have been interested in the JFK assassination since 1988, and I have learned a lot since then. The last 6 years I have been actively involved in a quest to unearth the truth of the JFK assassination. I have spent lots of time, energy and money on what I believe is an intriguing and noble cause. I could not have achieved this without the help and sacrifices of hundreds of others, building on their work and knowledge. I have authored a book and produced films on people with inside knowledge on the coup d' état that changed history and America, and probably the world. I have found that the people and their heirs, who seized power by killing Kennedy and covering up the truth, are still in power today. I have found these forces control corporate mass media channels to a certain degree. I have found they have assets to discredit the truth or prevent it from being shown through our so called free media.
So what is in fact the big challenge to get the truth out? For me, it is no longer to learn the truth, but rather to present it to the public at large.

Here you have a video link to a brand new, full fledged documentary of 2 hours that presents the most powerful (yet unknown) evidence you have ever seen for the plot to kill John F. Kennedy. JFK was one of the most loved presidents in history, representing hope for freedom and democracy. The man telling the story, Chauncey Marvin Holt, is dead now and was a self admitted career criminal. But in some ways, at least in my view, he was also a good man. For having a conscience and for sharing his story. He knew he was going to die shortly. In fact he died 8 days after this recording. This was the last thing he wanted to do. For YOU and your children.
Just one of the startling revelations in this film, is that the cuban exile militants, Orlando Bosch and Luis Posada Carriles, who are now being protected by the Bush administration (just google their names), were on Dealey Plaza when Kennedy was killed. You will further learn how Government Agencies and Organized Crime worked together.
I have decided to make it available free of charge on Google video. If you value the information, you may spread it far and wide. Tell your friends and relatives. Or give them as your next present the DVD in broadcast image quality:
