JFK's Tie Knot

[Thomas Neal]

Hi Neal, it might be of interest to others though. And just to have it on the record to refer to.

Hi Hassan,

I'm trying to get Bob to answer my original question first - that is, what does *he* believe caused the necktie's "missing cloth" - which is the crux of my question AND the theme of the thread. I haven't responded to his request, because...

The info Bob is requesting was posted by me at a different site, and he has read that document. I have also mentioned the FBI's "lead smear" (from said document) to him numerous times in our recent dialog regarding his belief that the throat wound was an exit wound. e.g. Only a bullet fragment could leave lead on the tie. How could the tie have a lead deposit, yet no "wipe" is present on the slit(s) in the shirt? They had decades of experience falsifying evidence so *IF* the FBI "planted" the lead on the neck tie, why didn't they also plant it on the shirt?

Why he now claims the "lead smear" and the document is new to him, I can only guess...

From long experience I know not to ask Bob more than one question at a time, or let him sidetrack me with *new* questions in order to avoid answering the questions I've already asked. It's a simple question, and he surely must know the answer, yet he has chosen to ignore it. I choose to wait until he answers my question before I continue.

I do believe it's common knowledge, but since you've asked, when I have the time to find the document I will post it.

Tom
