Phil Dragoo Wrote:Placing the decision to murder the president in the hands of a Henry Kissinger-David Rockefeller determination on or about October 11, 1963, ignores the longer view of L. Fletcher Prouty in JFK as well as James Douglass, JFK and the Unthinkable: Why He Died and Why It Matters. The martyrdom of JFK rested on a vastly broader base than David & Henry's Excellent Adventure.The essay is simplified for an average reader. The longer view of Prouty and Douglass is accurate and perceptive. But my goal was to impart a general sense to the uninitiated. I agree with your criticism, and referenced Prouty and Douglass as sources for deeper understanding. Holding the essay to essay required sacrifices.
