And therein lies the problem.

This "trial" is nothing other than the latest in a seemingly unending series of theatrics designed to prolong the "debate" of an issue settled decades ago -- a debate that nourishes the uncertainty upon which the Sponsors and Facilitators of JFK's murder depend for hegemonic and personal survival.

Yet we eagerly choose a "side" and hang on every word.

Fifty years later, and we're still playing Perry Mason games.

I continue to extol the effectiveness of art -- including theater -- as a weapon in our war against John Kennedy's murderers. See JFK for a prime example. Weaponized art attacks the mind and the heart and ultimately bends the will. See Triumph of the Will for a prime example.

Understand then that this "trial" is propaganda-as-theater, pure and simple. And the only effective counter is to expose it as such while refusing to act like soap opera junkies hanging on every word.

Any other response to this filth amounts to aid and comfort to the enemy.

And don't think for a nanosecond that such a production helps to educate the masses and move them toward understanding of the truth of conspiracy. The only lesson being taught here is of the "we can never really know" variety.

Do not include me in the "our" of "our side." My only "side" is the truth.
I totally agree with you Charles about the power of art. A number of imaginative ways could be found to present the truth of this story. What about a movie about Lee Harvey Oswald that shows him in the light that most of us see him (I Lead Three Lives). If Kasantzakis could write a novel portraying Judas as a martyr why not a movie about Oswald? Just one idea. Of course the problem is getting the funding for any project that would reach a mass audience. that is in anyway controversial. It reminds me of the problem artists behind the iron curtain had getting their work past the Soviet censors. They had to rely on Deep Metaphor
