Thanks for putting this up Alan.
It's at Lancer also.
Sometimes, we get so enamored with the details of the case, and with dead end disinfo, that we miss the big picture.
This is what I tried to do with this interview. Hard to believe no one else could do this in a half century.
But the people who could do it, like RFK, actually could not.
Neither could Edmund Gullion, who, for my money was the key figure in this whole story. If JFK had never met him, he probably would not have been assassinated. Gullion is disgracefully neglected by so many people its sickening. He was never even mentioned in a JFK book until Jim Douglass did so.
In my talk in Washington I said the cover up about JFK's death has long been exposed. The real cover up, and the deeper and more institutionalized one, is about who JFK was. In this talk I could only go so far. In Washington I talked about his Middle East Policy, especially concerning the Shah of Iran. JFK wanted to explore bringing back Mossadegh. The Shah knew how serious he was about this. He started some reforms in 1963 to dissuade JFK and RFK. But as James Bill writes in his book The Eagle and the Lion, LBJ reversed this policy due to his relationship with Nelson Rockefeller. It was further reversed by Nixon and Kissinger, and then Kissinger and Brezinski under Ford and Carter.
Carter did not want to let the Shah into the USA. So David Rockefeller hired John McCloy to reverse that policy. McCloy, one by one, picked off each of Carter's advisors, Vance, Warnke etc. Finally, when he was cornered, Carter looked at them and said, "OK you guys, just answer me one question: What are you going to tell me to do when they invade our embassy and take our employees hostage?"
In other words, McCloy not only covered up JFK's death. He not only was the point man on the Brazil coup in 1964. He later helped reverse Kennedy's Middle East policy. For this Iranian revolution provoked the currents of Moslem fundamentalism which Kennedy had warned about back in 1957. in his great Algeria speech. And then, LBJ, RMN and Ford all started to tilt toward Israel in the Palestinian conflict. And also toward Saudi Arabia. Two more reversals of JFK. We are so enamored with Vietnam and Cuba, most of us did not even know about Kennedy's visionary Middle East policy. Which began back in the fifties. He was that insightful.
When anyone asks, "Why should we study the JFK case, what does it have to do with today's world?" My answer is: Everything. But the media and hacks like Dallek and Reeves cover it up.
