You begin with the whole Oswald doppelganger thing via Armstrong. Which has no parallel at all in the RFK case. I did some work on that case, and I have never seen this device used to any degree at all there. SO I don' t know where it leads.
Are you sure it has no parallel? If Harvey & Lee is real, (and it looks like it is) this opens up a Pandora's Box of scary possibilities. If we establish the use of doubles in such a way then there's no reason to think they wouldn't employ something similar with the RFK Assassination. If you accept Douglass then RFK was killed for the exact same reasons as JFK. He threatened the Unspeakable in an identical manner with his anti-VietNam stance and threat to investigate the JFK Assassination. If anything these things begin to indicate a strong parallel.
Jim DiEugenio Wrote:You then shift to the alleged ID's of the three CIA officers. These have been discredited quite effectively, just look at the photo in Shane's book of Johannides. It is simply not them.
Bear with me here if I suggest it doesn't necessarily need to be them. But I would like to know if Campbell was actually Campbell.

This is where it gets tricky. While I endorse thorough scrutiny of facts it could lead to not imagining all possibilities or dismissing further possibilities too soon. It isn't beyond some of the crazier practices of covert ops to study the JFK Assassination and their investigator adversaries and deliberately plant look-alikes in order to discredit them. There would be a secondary sinister psy-ops pay-off to this. They could make fools out of their researcher enemies while leaving a diabolical ace of spades on their victim. There's nothing more evilly satisfying than making fools of your enemies while also leaving a deep psy-ops calling card in the images of the men who actually did it. Don't underestimate the evil potential of those people or what they do. They want people to know who's in charge and against whom they have no hope in fighting.

But this is the kind of silliness you get into when you entertain an outlandish notion.
Like I said, don't underestimate them. 'Get Smart' was clearly an allegory of CIA. Their adversary was a sinister group called "CHAOS". Hmmm, I wonder what they were (possibly) warning us about? Maybe just a coincidence. Maybe.
In my scant reading on this type of business even the most reckless guessing on some of the things they did would still underplay what they were actually doing.
