The LBJ-Did-It Operation Continues to Unfold

[James Lewis]

After reading Mr. Douglass's statement about "systemic evil", I had a thought, albeit a bit off-topic. Here lately, when I think of "evil", my thoughts seem to snap to the banks...the bailouts, the CEOs of their institutions being hailed as "heroes", and it made me think of something. Would you think that this "systemic evil" could be traced back to the formation of the Federal Reserve in 1913?

On the very last page (it's unnumbered, and in the Reading Group Guide section of the Simon and Schuster/Touchstone 2008 edition of JFK and the Unspeakable) (my copy is inscribed and signed by the author), Douglass answers this question:

"Is there anything else you uncovered about the JFK assassination conspiracy that you wish had been included in [the book], or were you able to fit all of your findings in the book?"

He answered:

"I included only what I could back up with solid sources that the reader could check out. Hence all the endnotes. There is far more than this beneath the surface. Yet we know enough, and have known enough for a long time, to see the truth. I believe that what is written here is only a tiny, visible piece of a systemic evil that continues to reach into the depths of our world. But grace also abounds. Peace is possible."

Color emphasis is mine.
