Yes, Phil Dragoo posts some very interesting and enlightening stuff doesn't he? I wish he had the platform to read that to people on national TV, beatnik poet style.

Yeah. A regular Maynard G. Krebs.

All he needs is a decent set of bongos.

Phil's style is, like, crazy, daddy-o.

And his substance, along with the thought it reflects, is in the pocket!

Thanks, Phil, for adding to the wisdom and sanity that -- with notable exceptions -- grace this website.

Like, gratitude, Mister D.

I'm beginning to think you and he are the same person.

Intereting post by Sterling Seagrave about Edward Lansdale over at Education Forum (I do think Lansdale organized the JFK assassination in Dallas for the CIA, perhaps folks like Allen Dulles and Nelson Rockefeller, Lyndon Johnson, GHW Bush, Hoover, HL Hunt, Clint Murchison, Sr):

About Lansdale -- but not about Dealey Paza -- I wanted to draw your attention to a new book largely about Lansdale that Peggy and I have recently published at Amazon.com using BookSurge/CreateSpace.

Title: RED SKY IN THE MORNING. This is set in Manila and Shanghai 1945-1952, when Lansdale first took up a post at G-2 in Manila. It is based on a huge pile of documents recently declassified that reveal the behavior of Lansdale, his legman Bohannen, and his top-gun Valeriano.

Essentially, Lansdale was eager to climb the ladder, and had already made himself known in Washington by taking all the credit for breaking General Yamashita's chauffeur who showed them 12 huge caches of buried war loot that Truman decided must be recovered secretly. This made Lansdale a pet of the Dulles Brothers inner circle of the Georgetown Set. But it was a hard act to follow. So Lansdale decided to transform the rural reform movement called the Huks into a Communist Rebellion trying to violently overthrow the "democratically elected" government in Manila, with money and weapons provided secretly by the Kremlin.

For this Lansdale needed some patsies, which he discovered in the form of two young American ex-GIs who were in Manila cleaning up surplus US military ships for sale to Chinese businessmen in Shanghai. Their third partner in this enterprise, which was entirely legal, was a White Russian emigre named Vladimir Chirskov, as young and wet behind the ears as the two ex-GIs. All Chirskov wanted was to get his wife and son out of Shanghai before Mao took over China, and he thought the Philippines would be the ideal solution.

Lansdale and Bohannen chose to demonize this trio of guys in their twenties as "Soviet secret agents". They turned the Philippine police, Constabulary, and G-2 loose on the trio and built a huge dossier of ambiguities that eventually led to their arrest and imprisonment in Bilibad Prison, from which they escaped. Lansdale, meanwhile, set Valariano's "death squads" loose on rural farmers, making a free-fire zone of the whole agricultural plain of Luzon where they were free to identify any villager as a "Communist Huk guerrilla". Eventually the innocent Chirskov was captured, tortured and thrown out of a helicopter over the South China Sea. In a recent War College study of Lansdale, his fraudulent massacre of the Huks was given the CIA label, "slow extermination".

This was Lansdale's first use of death squads and paid assassins, so it may have some value to theh discussion of Dealey Plaza.

I've been on the trail of Napoleon Valeriano for years, and I may have published a photo comparison here of him and one of the individuals photographed with LHO as he passed out leaflets in New Orleans.

If not, I'll do so now.
