I'm told by Peter that some people at DPF have some questions for me, or would like to hear my opinion on some subjects. I am delighted to try to help!

Welcome Doug.

I'm not one of those many who do have questions for you, but I am looking forward to reading everything that transpires.
The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.

i'm just learning how to use this blog, so if you can point me in the right direction, that would be very helpful, I think someone asked something at about the Wikileaks DEA stuff, but I don't see a forum page for that....

Welcome, Mr. Valentine.

I have a number of questions and topics for discussion to propose.

My work benefited greatly from your relatively brief yet important treatment of New England crime boss Raymond Patriarca in The Strength of the Pack. I'm wondering if your research into Patriarca's deep political connections in the '60s and '70s uncovered information related to the following:

-- Pre-1963 interactions between RP and Johnny Rosselli.

-- Utilization of "Pro Lerner and "Red" (or "Planner") Kelly in anti-Castro operations.

-- Deep political significance, if any, of the so-called "bonded vault" heist.

-- The RP-Irving "Ash" Resnick relationship, particularly as it might have applied to Las Vegas casino skimming and drug trafficking.

On behalf of all my co-owners of DPF, may I state publicly just how pleased we are that you've chosen to participate.

The search function is not working well at present due to this being the new version software and it came with lots of tweeks required.

There are two or three Wikileaks threads on the forum, tucked away in different folders. The largest one is HERE. It would probably be best to go to the last page and work back as it's into its 53rd page at present. The second largest is located in the Black Operations folder HERE. The same advice applies as this thread now runs to 36 pages. I think it is this thread with the drugs question.

Hi Charles,

Many thanks for the warm welcome. Alas, I can't help you with your specific questions. I didn't know that Patriarca knew Rosselli, though, if I remember, Rosselli's real name was F Sacco and he was from Boston. I know nothing about RP and Rosselli in 1963. I was told that Patriarca for a period of time played the official role of referee in Mafia disputes. That may be later. Patriarca figured in the Harrelson-Wood case, as did his butttonman Sal Caruana. Etc.

Don't know Red Kelly, and must admit up front, I don't know many details about the JFK case. I read I Was Castro's Prisoner by John M(something) which was very revealing and which I recommend. Who was Kelly?

I don't think I know of the "bonded vault" case either.

And I don't know about Resnick, though I'm pretty sure Jimmy Chagra laundered his drug money in vegas and Chagra moved drugs to Patriarca's clan in in Boston and worked with his people in Florida, maybe Tennessee too (I think) I guess Texas too.

Sorry

Welcome Douglas,

We also have a thread concerning the Phoenix program/My Lai.I have some inquiries that I would like to ask you about these subjects.I think it would be good to wait a bit for others to add their welcome.

Again thanks for your participation on DPF.

Keith, I think posing questions to Doug on Phoenix and My Lai would be a fascinating way to begin.

Others can queue their turn. Cool

Doug, this is the thread in question - 2 pages only. Phew!

Hi Keith,

Thanks for the welcome. I'm going to have some tea now, so I'll be here for a while, if you have a question.
