The Sixth Floor Museum and the Promotion of the Big Lie about JFK Assassination

[Phil Dragoo]

"Unimpeded by any law enforcement agency and animated by possibly nothing more than resentment against a symbol of the authority, success, and fame he craved and could never hope to achieve, Oswald fired three shots from the sixth-floor window of the Depository building at the president riding directly below in an open car. The second bullet struck Kennedy in the back of the neck. Were it not for a back brace, which held him erect, a third and fatal shot to the back of the head would not have found its mark. At 1:00 P.M. central time, half an hour after the attack, doctors at Dallas's Parkland Hospital told Mrs. Kennedy that the president was dead." --Robert Dallek, AN UNFINISHED LIFE--JOHN F. KENNEDY 1917-1963 (New York: Little, Brown and Company, 2003), p. 694.

Robert Dallek reveals himself a dangerous fool—or a tool.

The lone man without motive was not in the position alleged to fire the weapon he never owned with the marksmanship skills he never possessed to effect the shots which did not occur and could therefore not violate physics in the manner alleged.

"Back of the neck"--Gerry Ford, Arlen Specter, and the Posner-Bugliosi School of Anatomy where a shallow wound at C3/C4 (5-3/8 down from the jacket collar; 5-3/4 down from the shirt collar) becomes a Magic Transiting Pristine CE399.

The track-back from Tague is to the Dal-Tex, not the Depository.

But all is plastic in the land of Dulles' lone nut and Specter's Magic Bullet.

The end of the 35th president's life was achieved by the interests he threatened. One might begin to examine these by reading James Douglass, JFK and the Unspeakable: Why he died and why it matters.

Robert, you offer many books, any one of which would be superior to the Warren Report, Case Closed, or Reclaiming History. James, you note a great failing of higher education, that it is to produce Eric Hoffer's True Believer, Stalin's New Soviet Man, Orwell's Inner Party Member.

There is no doubt a third-rail in teaching American history of which failure to kowtow to the Warren Commission and its subsequent flunkies is an integral part.

Laurence Leamer, acknowledged expert on the Kennedy family, called me in re his prospective work on Edmond Safra, and in conversation I mentioned the rumors of eight billion in money laundering concerning Russian mafia and the imminent sale of Safra's Republic Bank to HSBC for ten billion, Safra's appearance before the Senate Banking Committee concerning Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) and the billionaire's convenient death in his Monaco penthouse December 3, 1999.

Leamer scoffed at anything but the lone nut Ted Maher (released in 2007) as the cause. At which point I mentioned Robert Kennedy, that no doubt Leamer would also scoff at the Second Gun, in the manner of Dan Moldea.

Leamer replied that Dan Moldea is “my very good friend” and of course there's nothing very complicated or sinister in Robert Kennedy's murder.

No mind that coroner Thomas Noguchi stipulated the four shots to the person and clothing of the late Senator and candidate were back-to-front, right-to-left, down-to-up and point-blank, within one and a half inches, not three feet as was the distance separating Sirhan and the victim.

Do we only honor great men in lip service as we slip the Senate daggers into their person--asked and answered.

Did the U.S. Government hang one man for the assassination of Abraham Lincoln. Would Oswald have been convicted at trial—or would it be established that most of the so-called evidence was laughably disqualified, the chains of custody and the integrity of the photographs, x-rays, FBI reports horribly corrupted.

There is an example of the corrupting influence in Dartmouth's Hani FBI Farid and his so-glorious proof that the Backyard Photos are Something—he would say authentic—I would say, agitprop, he and the security establishment, amigos.

Elements in the demonization of a long-term project of the intelligence agencies manipulated into position by forces who gained by removing the sitting president.

So many willing handmaiden's riding in the funeral procession on their venality.

A disciplined mind and a cultivated heart are elements of power.

But teaching Oswald as assassin is to set fire to the university rather than light the way to the truth.
