November 21, 2013 - Interview with James Tague, Witness to President John F. Kennedy's assassination

[@ironbuddha108]

I bought his book about 15 years ago. The paperwork that came with it also included an autographed picture of him on the day of the shooting. It also had his home phone number. I called him up on a quiet Sunday afternoon. I had no idea he would just pick up the phone! I had one of the most amazing chats with the 3rd wounded man! Too much to write about here, but I did ask him "Why were you down in DP that day?" He said that he had met some good looking red head and brought her down to check out the President being in town. I think she later became his wife. Such an awesome guy. He didn't know it, but he changed my life just talking to such an eye witness to one the worst days in this country's history.

I too was there on that terrible day. I was standing on the corner of main and Houston streets. Prior to the arrival of the limousine I saw Oswald and his rifle in the 6th floor. I advised a policeman in an existing picture that includes me, however his response was “ it’s probably a secret service agent”. As I began to walk away, I heard the first shot, then two quickly consecutive shots, then a fourth shot. The head shot came from the grassy knoll where police and bystanders were running toward the area because of the shot. Oswald may have shot Kennedy, but the kill shot came from the grassy knoll. I wrote to the Warren Commission who never responded to my letter. Guess they didn’t want a 4th shot or a second assassin. I’m 78 now but I’ll never forget that day.

[@wemustconfrontrealitynow3205]

(2) Ed Clark headed a law firm in Austin. He and Johnson had been close friends since the 1930's. Clark was the go-to man for anyone who needed anything done in the state of Texas. As soon as someone went to Clark with a problem he needed solved, the Senate Majority leader was on side, and then it was unlikely there was anything which could not be done. The people whose co-operation was needed would be approached and paid off from Johnson's slush fund, and they would never have breathed a word of anything they knew, if they knew what was good for them. If anyone was in the way or presented a problem which could not be solved any other way, Mac Wallace would attend to it. President Kennedy was in the way. Johnson needed to seize the Presidency without delay, because this was the only way he could get the Senate investigations stopped. Kennedy could not be removed any other way but by being killed. If Johnson had waited, it is likely Kennedy would have been forced from office because of a scandal surrounding his philandering with an East German woman believed to be a spy. But the Senate investigations might have uncovered enough to cause Johnson to be forced out of the Vice-Presidency and indicted before that could happen. What did happen, and would not have happened if Lee Oswald had been the assassin and acted alone, is the clear pointer to the fact that Johnson was behind it. The murder happened in Dallas County, in the state of Texas, so the laws of the state of Texas applied, and conferred jurisdiction on the authorities of Dallas County. That meant no one but the Dallas County Medical Examiner could perform the autopsy, or there would be no autopsy report which would be admissible in court. No one but the Dallas County District Attorney could lay charges, and any murder trial could be held nowhere else but the Dallas County Courthouse. If Lee Oswald, acting alone, had been guilty, the Dallas County Medical Examiner would have taken posession of Kennedy's body and would have performed the autopsy. His report would have given an accurate account of Kennedy's wounds, and would have been used, as the law required, to establish in law that Kennedy's suspicious death was a homicide. Oswald would have been transferred, under tight security, to the Dallas County jail, and few outside Dallas would ever have heard of Jack Ruby. A grand jury would have convened, and considered the evidence against Oswald. If there was sufficient evidence against him, it would have handed down true bills of indictment, and he would have stood trial, at tghe Dallas County Courthouse, and, if convicted, would have received an appropriate sentence. (Continued in another comment).

David S. Loftin pointed that out in his great book " Best Evidence " and the movie " Parkland " verified it ! Johnson was a rat %$#& ! Kennedy should have dropped him as V.P. when he was still alive.

Tell him not to pick LBJ as Vice Pres. .

[@freeguy77]

Mac Wallace was on the 6th floor, fired a shot but it missed the limo. A tough shot to make with him on the SW corner of the building. Oswald was never on the SE side, as he exclaimed that evening to reporters: "I'm just a patsy!" And then when asked by a reporter if he shot JFK, he replied negatively, thereby refuting the nonsense of the WCR of him "seeking publicity" when he wanted none as a double agent for the U.S. "I didn't shoot anybody, no sir!" As to the Dallas M.E., Dr. Earl Rose, the Secret Service forcibly broke the law by manhandling him and anyone else who got in their way (showing their guns), stealing the coffin and on orders from LBJ, taking it aboard the aircraft to Bethesda Naval Hospital, where the two novice M.E.'s (both never treated gunshot wounds) were under orders from superiors to NOT track the bullet(s) through the head and other restrictions. A scam of an autopsy resulted, with phony pics of the rear of Kennedy's head that were partially blasted away, but showing a full skull, trying to pin the blame on the innocent Oswald!

[@freeguy77]

Kennedy was vulnerable, not only for his numerous affairs with questionable women (ex, Ellen Rometsch, still alive today at 85, the East German spy--who RFK as Atty Gen., got her kicked out and back to E. Ger.), but also Judith Campbell Exner, the paramour of Chicago mobster Sam Giancana (murdered in 1975, to silence him). Also, Kennedy was taking a number of drugs (steroids and amphetamines, by a quack doctor Max Jacobsen--nicknamed "Dr. Feelgood") to relieve his back pain, and his Addison's disease that was hidden from the public during the '60 campaign and his prior Congress elections. These negatives could have finally been exposed by a more aggressive press in 1964, or before his end date of Jan. 20, 1969 if re-elected as was most likely under the press then believing a president's private life was not their business to inquire or reveal.

[@wemustconfrontrealitynow3205]

@@freeguy77Your mention of the scam autopsy photos touches on one of the most mysterious aspects of the assassination: the murder of J.D. Tippit. A witness stated that the killer definitely was not Oswald. It was said he bore such a remarkable resemblance to President Kennedy that his nickname amongst his work colleagues was 'Jack'. It has been suggested that the conspirators needed a body double for President Kennedy. Using it for scam autopsy photos makes this suggestion credible, and provides a clear reason for Tippit's murder.

[@predragpetrovic3561]

Bystander, James Tague, was standing by the underpass on Commerce St. during the shooting. Toward the end of the shooting sequence, he was struck on the cheek by either a fragment of bullet or a concrete fragment of the curb. This was a separate shot from any other in the Plaza and because of this additional shot, The Warren Commission was forced to create the absurd single-bullet theory because there was not enough time in the shooting sequence for this extra shot from that particular rifle.

Can't you people see how easy it is to frame someone. You set up a snipers nest, leave the rifle, left some bullets on the floor.. and then you point your fingers blaming someone. You should be ashamed of yourself if you don't see this was a conspiracy.

[@peterfraser9070]

"You set up a snipers nest, leave the rifle, left some bullets on the floor.": People saw a shooter in that window and saw the rifle being fired. Non-government investigations test fired rifles and found that the 3 casings always landed in the same way as found after Oswald shot Kennedy from that window; one casing over more by itself after the first missed shot and then 2 casings close together after the 2nd and 3rd shots.

[@peterfraser9070]

No, it's not so simple to frame someone at all. The evidence wouldn't bear it out. And besides, just think, Oswald was just sitting downstairs while someone else is using the rifle Oswald smuggled in that morning? Why wouldn't Oswald have gone outside to see the President? The real assassins didn't care that their "patsy" could easily be seen by anyone downstairs or outside and it would destroy their plot to frame him? Come on.

[@wemustconfrontrealitynow3205]

He is right. Johnson was behind it. He thought he was entitled to the Democratic Nomination in 1960. As the Senate Majority Leader, he was the senior Democrat, and this young upstart, the junior Senator from Massachusetts, sidestepped the usual process for selecting the nominee by winning the primaries and won on the first ballot. Johnson asked Sam Rayburn to swing his support behind him for the second ballot, and Rayburn said, 'Lyndon, there ain't gonna be no second ballot'. Kennedy had trodden on Johnson, a very dangerous thing to do. Kennedy had chosen Senator Stuart Symington as his Vice-Presidential nominee, but Jonhson went to see him that night, and demanded the Vice-Presidential slot be given to him, blackmailing him by threatening to use information given him by J. Edgar Hoover, a close friend of his, of Kennedy's playing up with other women. Kennedy gave in, and as a result, he was a dead man walking. The only thing which would have saved his life would have been if he was defeated by Dick Nixon. At first, Johnson was thinking, 'He's got Addison's Disease; he'll die in office, but Kennedy was receiving new treatments for his condition, and his health seemed to be holding. Meanwhile, Johnson was in big trouble as a result of two scandals, the cotton allotments scandal and the Bobby Baker scandal. The first resulted from the activities of Billie Sol Estes, who had set up a scheme to divert subsidies for cotton growing, which had defrauded the Federal Government of $21 million. Henry Marshall (1909-1961), a US Department of Agriculture investgator, was looking into this matter and had to be stopped, because simply following the money trail would have led to Johnson. Most of the money had gone into Johnson's slush fund. Marshall was offered a promotion to Washington, but saw this as an attempt to buy him off, and refused. He was then found dead, shot five times in the abdomen with his own rifle, on June 3, 1961. His death was described in the autopsy report as a suicide, despite investigating police saying it wasn't like any suicide they had ever seen. What really happened was that after Marshall refused the promotion and was intent on continuing his investigation, Johnson said to his personal assassin, Mac Wallace, 'Get rid of him'. Wallace went to Marshall's farm intending to knock him out with a blow to the head and sit him in his vehicle with a hose running from the exhaust pipe and through a nearly closed window, with the engine running, the usual method of disposing of someone who was in Johnson's way, so his death would be ruled a suicide. But, according to Billie Sol Estes' later recounting of the murder of Marshall, he fought back and Wallace was forced to shoot him with his own rifle. The murder ensured the main focus stayed on Billie Sol Estes, who wisely said nothing about Johnson, but Robert Kennedy was soon leaking information about the case from the Justice Department, in the hope of getting rid of Johnson. This, plus the effect of the Bobby Baker scandal, and impending Senate investigations into both, ensured the pressure on Johnson was unrelenting. (Continued in new comment)

Johnson could have seized the Presidency without having Kennedy killed. He would not have lived to advanced age, because of his health problems, but could have lived a longer life, until one of his health problems claimed him.

Is this still saved..? and can we get DNA off them..? After all, Oswald still has living daughters. (Oswald was drinking Coke Cola on the 2nd floor) Also to note, Wesley Buell Frazier drove Oswald to work that day and he stated, Oswald had no lunch. 1927 the FBI, U.S. Government poison drinking alcohol during Prohibition. it took 75 years to know that "Truth' 1963 JFK was killed..

Jim Bishop, in his book “The Day Kennedy Was Shot” (1968), speculated that Oswald was facing marksmen SS agents as the motorcade approached the TSBD from Houston Street and that maybe he was afraid of retaliatory fire. Could be, I don’t know.

[@WINGGULLSEAGULL]

Good question & good point ! I ask that question & so have others. Houston is the easiest shot for a lone shooter. Target straight ahead moving closer & closer. Elm St. is a much harder shot with the target getting further away & trees blocking it. Only explanation is the conspirators waited for the motorcade to turn on Elm into the crossfire trajectory of a 2nd & even a 3rd shooter. Sgt. Nelson Delgado served in the marines & said Lee Oswald was a lousy shot a joke. Regards to the chicken bones & Dr. Pepper in the snipers den ? Bonnie Ray Williams ate his lunch there before the motorcade arrived. Deputy Sheriff Rodger Craig saw the chicken bones & Dr. Pepper while he & Eugene Boone searched for a rifle on the 6th floor TSBD after the shooting......& they found a 7.65 German Mauser.

Because as a now-revealed conspiracy (on LBJ, by 6 different authors), it would have violated the tried-and-true idea of three teams of shooters (triangulation) to make sure at least one fired a fatal bullet. Besides that, Oswald was never on the 6th floor, as documented by Barry Ernest in his eye-opening revealing 2013 hardcover book, "The Girl on the Stairs" [*] about Victoria Adams and her 3 co-workers (plus a photographer), who were on the 4th floor stairway in the TSBD, and they saw NOBODY come down those stairs from the 6th floor! That clears Oswald, as he also exclaimed later that night, "I'm just a patsy" and when asked if he shot the president, denied it--and therefore not wanting publicity as the purposely misleading Warren Commission Report decided he did, "I didn't shoot anyone, no sir!"

The scene of the shooting was not a good position for a target for a rifleman on the sixth floor of the Book Depository, but the car was perfectly positioned for the riflemen behind the paling fence at the upper end of the grassy knoll. It was coming towards their position, not moving away from it, and afforded a near zero-deflection shot. The riflemen firing from behind, such as anyone (not Oswald) firing from the sixth floor of the book depository or adjacent buildings, had no vital need for accuracy. All that was needed was to ensure that there would be witnesses who heard shots coming from that direction.

And the ID card in Oswald's wallet gives the name Alex Hiddell. This is the same name given on the phony Post Office papers used to buy a rifle by mail order. But the CIA also used that name for agents in undercover operations to identify each other. Oswald tried to call someone in North Carolina to verify he was an under cover CIA agent. The Dallas Police operators lied when the phone call did not go through. But in fact the call never was even made. They just lied when they said no one answered. No one answered because the call was never made. Oswald was also an FBI informant. He spoke of the Cosa Nostra. This was a fictitious name from the Joe Valdacci flipping against the mafia.

Do not forget Robert was the Attorney General. He had to be made ineffective by Johnson being President. If John remained alive, Johnson would not be the Vice President after 1964 election because Good old Lyndon would be in jail. We see here why Johnson was out to get Kennedy. The mafia must have had a desire to know Robert out of power because of the huge number of mafia convictions he obtained as well.

True. In 2005, E. Howard Hunt, a CIA guy for 20 years, was dying and was convinced by his son to tell what he knew about the JFK murder. Hunt was in the CIA in 1963. He did some writing, made audio tapes and a videotape about it (videotape available on youtube). He said the CIA was behind the murder and named some of the CIA guys involved. He tried to interest major media outlets in it, but none wanted it. A guy at 60 Minutes considered it, then told Hunt someone above him had turned it down. Pretty amazing, given the continuing public interest in it. He finally published it in Rolling Stone.

[@vincenzodangelo127]

This is what happened that morning of November 22, 1963 in Dallas and the Zapruder video speaks very clearly. The presidential limousine takes Elm Street and after a few meters the first shot fired by Nicoletti starts who, together with Rosselli, was hidden in the Dal Tex Building. The first bullet misses its target and hits the sidewalk of the triple railroad crossing at the end of the square and a splinter ends up in the face of James Tague, a passerby who was standing there. The second bullet hits Kennedy in the throat, and as you can see in the footage, the president puts his hands around his neck and Governor Connally turns back to understand what happened. The third bullet misses and ends up on the lawn where it is later found by an FBI man and Deputy Buddy Walthers. The fourth bullet hits Connally who emits a grimace of pain as seen in the video and brings his right hand to his stomach because he accuses an immediate pain and then the bullet pierces his right wrist and plants itself in the thigh of his left leg. The fifth bullet hits Kennedy in the back of the head and the sixth bullet, fired by James Files hiding on the grassy knoll half a second after the fifth shot, shoots both Kennedy's blood and head back, and the brain leaking was due to pressure. of the sixth bullet that had left an apple-sized hole behind Kennedy's head, as evidenced by photos of 14 people bringing their hands to the same spot on their heads. I say with certainty that the bullets were 6 because it seems that a shot was fired about every three seconds, that is the time to reload the rifle. Returning to Connally, which is the key to clarifying the mystery well, there is a lot to say. 1) First of all, from the angle in which Oswald would have found himself firing, which was about 45 degrees, only Kennedy would have been hit and no one else, the bullet could not in any way make a deviation and then hit the governor. 2) When Kennedy is shot Connally turns around to see what happens and stays there for about three seconds, the time to reload the shot in the rifle; if the governor had been hit by the magic bullet, at the same time as the president, he would have had the same reaction as Kennedy and would have neither the way nor the strength to look back. 3) The governor Connally when he is wounded is still turned and you see a grimace of pain as I mentioned before him and then turn forward again and collapse on his wife's legs. 4) In the video you can see how Connally bumps his head in front of the glass that separates him from the driver's and assistant's seats. 5) Do you know why Connally was hit? Both because Kennedy threw himself on his wife's right shoulder, because bending over did not hinder the trajectory of the fourth bullet that almost grazed him hitting the governor, and because the shot was fired by Nicoletti from the window of the Dal Tex Building and reached the governor, because Kennedy was leaning towards his wife. So, not only does the first missile reveal where the shot really came from, but also what hit Connally. Indisputable and real evidence, but unfortunately denied by many, including the Warren commission which veiled so much evidence.

@@peterk8909 and of course, ya present no evidence. - - - Mr. Hoover entered on duty with the Department of Justice on July 26, 1917, and rose quickly in government service. In November 1918, he was named assistant to the attorney general, and the following year, he led the Department's General Intelligence Division (GID). When the GID was moved in the Bureau of Investigation in 1921, he was named assistant director of the BOI. On May 10, 1924, Attorney General Harlan Fiske Stone appointed the 29-year-old Hoover acting director of the Bureau, and by the end of the year Mr. Hoover was named Director. As Director, Mr. Hoover put into effect a number of institutional changes to correct criticisms made of his predecessor’s administration. Director Hoover fired a number of agents whom he considered to be political appointees and/or unqualified to be special agents. He ordered background checks, interviews, and physical testing for new agent applicants and he revived the earlier Bureau policies of requiring legal or accounting training. Under Director Hoover, the Bureau grew in responsibility and importance, becoming an integral part of the national government and an icon in American popular culture. In the 1930s, the FBI attacked the violent crime by gangsters and implemented programs to professionalize U.S. law enforcement through training and forensic assistance. For example, the Bureau opened its Technical Laboratory to provide forensic analysis on Bureau investigations as well as services to other federal, state, and local law enforcement officials. During the 1940s and 1950s, the Bureau garnered headlines for its staunch efforts against Nazi and Communist espionage. During World War II, the Bureau took the lead in domestic counterintelligence, counterespionage, and countersabotage investigations. President Roosevelt also tasked the Bureau with running a foreign intelligence service in the Western Hemisphere. This operation was called the Special Intelligence Service, or SIS. In the early years of the Cold War, the Bureau took on the added responsibility of investigating the backgrounds of government employees to ensure that foreign agents did not infiltrate the government. More traditional criminal investigations including car thefts, bank robberies, and kidnappings also remained important. In the 1960s and early 1970s, the Bureau took on investigations in the field of civil rights and organized crime. The threat of political violence occupied many of the Bureau’s resources as did the threat of foreign espionage. In spite of Mr. Hoover’s age and length of service, presidents of both parties made the decision to keep him at the helm of the Bureau. When Mr. Hoover died in his sleep on May 2, 1972, he had led the FBI for 48 years.

There was three bullets JFK was shot twice and the guy in front of him was shot once. JFK had two entrance wounds people heard three shots, which would actually go more with his theory that proves there was a second shooter.

I was on the top of the grassy knoll the day Kennedy was shot with my girlfriend. We were standing behind the fence and I was so interested in her I didn't see a thing! I thought I heard firecrackers but can''t remember how many popped off. The girl, now my wife of 56 years, didn't hear or see anything either. However, both of us smelled a really strong gunpowder smell! I have always wondered why we smelled that?

[@marksmale827]

Would you smell gunpowder coming from inside the distant TSBD? I think not. Which does not disprove that a person or persons were firing from elsewhere around Dealey Plaza, but does indicate that a firearm was discharged near where you were standing.

[@sjg3890]

Smokeless gun powder was the standard then and I imagine a sniper with a silencer attached to his weapon. It sounds more like a decoy.

[@sonofadoy]

I put a 6in diameter mirror, on the concrete beside the manhole, located near the south curb of Elm, located in the plaza. I then went to the location described by James Tague, located under the overpass. Then, using a green laser, I "reversed" the bullet trajectory. The laser went to the third floor fire escape of the DalTex - or rather, where the fire escape had been, as it has since been removed! - dm

[@AndyHutton1969]

Why assume the bullet followed a normal ballistic path? That bullet may have been a ricochet (that first shot, remember, missed the car *entirely*), or may have been deflected by an impact with JFK.

[@scrabbleking1965]

Last year I stood where James Tague was standing under the triple underpass, a bullet just passing over the car would indict a shot fired very window of the DalTex building. James Files says Charles Nicoletti was firing from the 2nd floor. I direct line from the 6th floor TSBD to where Tague was standing passes AT LEAST 20 feet above the limousine. So Warren Commission basically says Oswald fired 3 shots two hit the president and one passed over his head by 20 feet.

[@AndyHutton1969]

@@scrabbleking1965 If the bullet was deflected, it could've come from a lot of places. And if it wasn't deflected, how could the person who fired it have missed not just Kennedy but the entire car? There's evidence that Oswald fired three shots (ear-witnesses in the TSBD, on the floor below; the majority of earwitnesses on the scene; eyewitnesses on the ground; three empty cartridge cases with the rifle; two visible and one strongly indicated on the Zapruder film). The first of these shots missed the car, which strongly suggests it was deflected. And if it was deflected, projecting a line from its impact point back through the cars location doesn't reveal its origin. Is there any credible evidence for a shot from the Dal-Tex building? Particularly one from so near the street as the second floor? I don't think so. It's clear one shot missed, and missed by a lot. What's more believable: that Oswald's shot was deflected by an intervening tree branch, or that a would-be Presidential assassin somehow missed the entire car with a clear shot?

[@scrabbleking1965]

@@AndyHutton1969 If you draw a straight line, from the curb at Tague's feet to the 2nd floor of the DalTex building you can see that Charles Nicoletti missed JFK by inches, to more than a foot at most. If you believe one bullet missed JFK and the car completely due to a deflection by a tree that wasn't there in 1963. (If it went in straight line from sniper's nest in TSBD it went over the car by about 25 feet!) Another magic bullet made 7 wounds in ABSURDLY PREPOSTEROUS angles and the final bullet sprayed brain matter out the back of JFKs head....well all I can say is you are selectively looking at evidence, evidence the Warren Commission wants public. Sounds like you want to believe Oswald acted alone, not like you want to explore the evidence and go where it leads. kzbin.info/www/bejne/n4CcgaKbhNOXnrc

[@AndyHutton1969]

@@scrabbleking1965 Oswald did act alone. There are way too many facts that can't be dismissed to reasonably claim otherwise. You not only propose a gunman in the Dal-Tex building, you place him somewhat preposterously on the second floor (where he would be visible in photographs), and even give him a name. What you don't offer are facts, because you don't have any. People reported seeing someone shooting from the sixth floor of the TSBD; did anyone report something similar about the Dal-Tex building? Not even the people standing on the street right below where the supposed gunman was firing? BTW, the shooting happened in 1963, not 1962. And the tree was indeed there then. It's visible in photographs and movie footage. There's nothing preposterous about the single bullet theory: it's backed by both the film evidence and the locations of the wounds in both men. Think a 6.5x52mm Carcano round won't go through two people? Alec Baldwin just shot through one person into another with a much less powerful handgun round. And the head motion has been explained endlessly. Real life isn't like Hollywood movies where people are flung around by bullet impacts. Watch the film; JFK's movement doesn't start (in seeming violation of movie physics) until a frame or two after the impact, consistent with a neuro-muscular spasm associated with a massive brain injury.

[@carljensen5730]

"Poor Oswald" obviously didn't fire a single shot that day. The parafin test proved that. However, there is a ton of evidence that he was involved in something. There is evidence that his CIA handler was David Phillips, that he spent time in the days prior to the assassination with known CIA/mafia hitman James Files whose handler was also David Phillips, that he had specific instructions to go certain places and meet certain people after the assassination. I think the one thing that he didn't know was that he was going to be framed as the lone gunman. Clearly that was a shock to him. I wonder, at what point did Oswald know that he was not going to be allowed to live?

[@jb-vb8un]

@@joannewilson6577 her ya go, lefty - - - The film was used as evidence in the case against Lee Harvey Oswald, who shot Kennedy from a sixth-floor window at the Texas School Book Depository. When the Warren Commission issued its report on the assassination in 1964, it concluded that Oswald had shot the president from behind. A study published in the journal Helios corroborates that conclusion. Nicholas Nalli, senior research scientist at IMSG, Inc., created a model of the mechanics of the gunshot wound itself to explain where the bullet may have come from. When Nalli studied the Zapruder film, he noticed that the president’s head snapped forward at the moment the bullet hit his skull. This, he hypothesized, meant the president had been shot from behind. Plenty of information about the crime has been public for years, and Nalli drew from that well of data to create a model of the physical processes of the gunshot wound. Nalli’s model took things like the mass and speed of the bullet and measurements into account. He combined that information with the shutter speed of the film that documented the shooting. The model then calculated how the bullet would have acted when it entered President Kennedy’s skull if it came from behind. It confirmed Nalli’s theory-and shows that it’s unlikely that the president was shot from the “grassy knoll” in front of him. “The President’s reactions just after the projectile impact were physically consistent with a gunshot wound caused by a high-energy Carcano military rifle bullet fired from the vicinity of the Texas School Book Depository,” Nalli writes. When the president was shot, he says, Kennedy’s head exploded, as the film so graphically shows. Nalli’s model shows that the wound wasn’t where the bullet exited, but where it entered. It demonstrates that a temporary cavity formed inside the president’s soft tissue as the momentum and kinetic energy of the bullet smashed into his skull, causing his head to snap forward.

There's a thousand theories on what happened that November day in 1963.

[@wemustconfrontrealitynow3205]

People ask the wrong question if they ask 'Who was involved?' The right question would be 'Who wasn't involved?' LBJ was behind it, but he needed conspirators to carry it out. The CIA, the FBI, the oil industry, Cuban exiles, defense industries and many other groups had interests at stake which, as they saw it, would best be served by having President Kennedy killed. These groups would have provided the manpower necessary.

[@vernonfrance2974]

With all due respect, because Tague does call it what it was "a coup," there was more evidence than from inside the Limo. A young man named Harper found a skull fragment from the back of JFK's head called the Harper Fragment. Blood and brain matter also sprayed out the back hitting the nearest motorcycle cop. Also, although LBJ was involved, the whole group involved also included J Edgar Hoover, Nixon, Texas oil men including G. H. W. Bush. Tague mentions LBJ's mistress Madeleine Brown. Hoover had a memo of a meeting the day after the murder, in his office and he named George Bush of the CIA. It is known that George Bush the Elder was doing operations leading up to the Bay of Pigs and that his father, Prescott, was instrumental in the founding of the CIA. The clincher - there is a photo of Prescott with Nixon and between them Jack Rubinstein AKA Jack Ruby way back in the late '40's. There is also a memo in the early fifties where Nixon requested in writing that Rubinstein not have to testify at some hearing. www.amazon.com/Man-Who-Killed-Kennedy-Against/dp/1629144894 9THE TITLE should be The MEN who killed Kennedy," but like many of the books out there it is trying to redirect the killing to just one of the men involved. Madeleine Brown's interview can be seen here: rare.us/rare-news/history/madeleine-duncan-brown/ I believe LBJ was forced to turn down a chance to run again because he was threatened with being outed if he did. Later Nixon was trying to keep the part he played in the assassination secret by resigning as well. His top aide, Haldeman wrote in his memoirs that Nixon called the killing "That Bay of Pigs Thing," which was their code. Just before the 18 minute gap in the White House tapes he had to turn over he mentioned the Bay of Pigs thing. Prescott Bush was no novice to such skullduggery. He had been in on trying to kill FDR in the 30's and the Mayor of Chicago was killed instead. Anton Cermak told FDR, "better me than you." "Anton Cermak was the mayor of Chicago in the 1930s. He was injured by an assassin's bullet intended for the president-elect, Franklin Delano Roosevelt. Cermak was taken to a local hospital, treated nonoperatively for his injuries, and initially improved." The Assassination of Anton Cermak, Mayor of Chicago - NCBIwww.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov › articles › PMC7297642 It was no coincidence that liberals were mowed down in the 60's and even later just as it was no coincidence that the only politicians to get the Anthrax Letters were Democrats. Both Clinton and Obama were selected to carry on with the Military Industrial Complex' Agenda. Clinton had worked with Bush the First on the importation of cocaine to Mena AR. This cocaine sales helped finance the illegal gun running to the Nicaraguans trying to overthrow Daniel Ortega. Trumps' attorney general, Barr was in on the Mena Coverup. Obama was plucked from obscurity to be groomed in the Ivy League. The MIC likes to maintain the illusion of choice but regardless as to who's president, their agenda remains the same and they call the shots.

[@Mountain_Sage]

Vernon France, your comments are the most comprehensive summary I have heard in the 58 years plus regarding this incident. I believe one must include the contribution of the syndicate (our government's term for the mob/mafia) and the role of financially altering local policing and judicial decisions. Operation Mongoose was a CIA mission to remove Castro, utilizing members of the syndicate. This operation was cancelled as a result of negotiations with the Soviet Union during the 1962 Cuban Missle crisis. Is there a chance that the players hired to take out Castro redirected their target to the President that shut down their original mission?

[@vernonfrance2974]

@@Mountain_Sage Thank you for your comment. I agree that you have a good point about the Mafia. The DA of New Orleans, Jim Garrison, also felt that the Mafia there was involved. Robert Kennedy had had New Orleans Mafia boss Carlos Marcello deported. Oliver Stone directed "JFK" which centered around Garrison's investigation. Garrison was invited to be on the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson and he showed a large glossy photo of "The Three Tramps" and pointed out that the lead Tramp appeared to be E. Howard Hunt who would later become known as the "Watergate Burglar," after he got caught/😃🙂apprehended. This was before the landslide election of Nixon for his second term, but as usual the public did not pay attention. Of course, back then most people only read small town newspapers and had no internet. Later in that term Nixon had to resign. Hunt's wife was killed in a mysterious air crash just before the plane was to land at Midway Airport in Chicago. Bystanders said the place was smarmed by men in suits before the emergency personnel arrived. The men made away with paperwork presumed to be evidence and "hush money" paid to Hunt. Hunt admitted to his involvement in Dallas the day of the murder, even boasting of it, to his son Saint John Hunt, just before his death. allthatsinteresting.com/e-howard-hunt Again the public does not seem to have cared. I am curious about your study of this topic. Maybe we could write a book and see if it would be published. (Not likely!) Dallas Mayor Ben E. Cabell was the brother of Charles Cabell, who was deputy director of the Central Intelligence Agency until Charles was fired in the wake of the Bay of Pigs invasion. I doubt if either one was too happy with JFK.

Given that any supposed conspirators couldn't know in advance (1) exactly what the wounds to JFK were or (2) what was recorded by spectators--and could not have had this information before the flight back to Washington was complete--it would have been a real challenge not just to "switch" the bodies, but to provide a body with wounds that matched the photographic evidence. Also, there was no hole in the windshield. The windshield was cracked by a bullet fragment, but there was no hole. For an assassin, shooting through a windshield would be a very dubious tactic as it could deflect the bullet substantially from its intended target; that's why police sharpshooters usually don't shoot through glass.
