James H. Fetzer Wrote:It's really not all that difficult to understand. A guy who looks like Lucien Conein did in those years was caught by accident in a famous photograph taken in Dealey Plaza. He, like other CIA assets, knew JFK was going to be bumped off and wanted to be there. It's a bit sick, but assassination was their specialization.
To create a distraction, they introduced a guy who looked somewhat like Conein and fabricated a "plaque" to commemorate his having been included in a photo taken during the assassination. The "plaque" even describes his being there on the wrong day (Thursday) and the wrong date (23 November). Absurd!
As though this were not transparently ridiculous enough, then induce one Allen Eaglesham to splash the notice that "The man identified as Conein is not Conein", for which he has no justification. Jack has confirmed the resemblance is far greater to Conein than it is to Adams, who is simply cast as the stooge.
Ad hominems involved discrediting a message by attacking the messenger. In my opinion, this is a transparent rear-guard action to try to conceal the presence of a big-time CIA assassin in Dealey Plaza. Morgan can believe anything he likes, but it disappoints me that he would fall for this incredible drivel.
It's not I who is indulging in them anyway. How does Morgan propose to explain this phony "plaque"? What does it mean to him that SOMEONE was going to the time and trouble to fabricate a fake plaque? And if Conein wanted to change his appearance to be less like it was in 1963, would that be difficult to do?
Allan Eaglesham Wrote:Let me see if I can get a handle on this deception per Professor Fetzer. The CIA found a Dallas man, Robert Adams, who resembled Lucien Conein, and to provide plausible deniability for Conein being "captured" in Altgens's famous photograph they put together a picture frame with newspaper cuttings and erroneous information about the day and date of the assassination. This was given to Mrs. Adams to hang in the hallway of the Adams residence so that if any visitor familiar with Allan Eaglesham's website, "Familiar Faces in Dealey Plaza," brought up the subject of Conein's role in the conspiracy -- perhaps over afternoon tea -- Mrs. Adams could direct the visitor to the picture frame with words such as, "Lucien Conein? Ole three-fingered Lou? Oh no! That was my husband Robert. He worked at the post office."
Jack's comparison reveals only that the peak of Mr. Adams's widow's peak was blown slightly to one side.
According to the professor, I have been induced by someone. By whom, may I ask?
The drivel here issues from Fetzer who appears to have an emotional need for CIA-inspired machinations here, when, in fact, all we have is a newspaper clipping in a frame on a wall. He continues to clutch at the "plaque" -- the red herring unwittingly introduced by Frank Caplett -- like a drowning man.
