David Lifton claims a lot of things:
1. Assassins were hiding in the trees in Dealey Plaza
2. Jim Garrison was a complete and utter fraud
3. Kerry Thornley had absolutely nothing to do with Oswald or the assassination
4. FBI asset, and habitual liar, James Phelan was a good journalist (He actually spoke at Phelan's funeral).
5. Edward Epstein is pretty cool also (Lifton helped him on his book Counterplot)
6. All the shots in Dealey Plaza came from the front (incredible)
7. The WC really wasn't that bad, it was just fooled by the autopsy (No one can believe this who has read Specter's cross examination of the doctors)
8. Jim Humes admitted to him that there was something to his ideas about alteration (This was discredited when Lifton played his tape of Humes in Chicago)
9. JFK's body was hijacked and went to some other location where something called trajectory reversal took place (That is holes were punched in his corpse etc.)
10. The photos of the back of the head are real
I understand his new book, if its ever published (let us hope its not) will somehow blame the cover up on RFK
All of the above is, in my view, complete and utter BS
There are some good things in Horne's book, but it is hard to escape the implication that he served as an appendage of Lifton on the ARRB.
