Vasilios,
Forgive my tardiness in responding to your thoughtful post. I'll do my best to address your points.
I beg to differ. Most of the Facilitators who were aware -- at least in general terms -- of what they were facilitating were heavily compartmentalized. None knew enough to blow the operation. Those who inevitably broke operational security could not expose enough of the plot to threaten it fatally. Even when, in the agregate, the security lapses gave away the general contours of the cover story -- a marginalized character with emotional difficulties, three names, and an incriminating past was working with a shooting team of "Cubans" to kill JFK -- there was the Chicago ruse available to expose as the plot to which the leaks referred.
Some of the Facilitators also were tainted as False Sponsors.
All provided invaluable service -- knowingly or otherwise.
Your assessment of Hunt is absolutely correct. His "confession" was designed and executed to sow further confusion and to prompt, among other reactions, your very own when you state, in essence, "If Hunt said it is so, it cannot be so."
You see, the classic disinformation agent mixes truth with fiction; one of his/her goals (if they are publicly tainted as was Hunt) is to deflect attention from guilty parties merely by attempting to implicate them.
Suspicions surrounding Morales are not part of any "latest trend." In point of fact they stretch back nearly 20 years.
I would not base any ID's solely on the basis of the "tramps" photos. I strongly suspect that Lansdale was a witting conspirator because of his unique mix of skills, experience, connections, fealities -- he all but uniquely had the means, motives, and opportunity to be in the mix.
Was Lansdale a Sponsor of the JFK hit? Not a chance in hell.
Was he a Facilitator? I would make a larger wager that he was.

Vasilios Vazakas Wrote:Dulles, General Cabell, Angleton, for sure, they were involved. Regarding Lansdale, beside the tramp photo, what other proof do we have that he was involved?

If an individual, through either his own volition or events over which he had no control, found himself taking up residence in a country undefined by flags or physical borders, he could be assured of one immediate and abiding consequence: He was on his own, and solitude and loneliness would probably be his companions unto the grave.

You can't blame the innocent, they are always guiltless. All you can do is control them or eliminate them. Innocence is a kind of insanity.
