Jesse Curry Interviews Nov 1963

[Richard Smith]

What a pile of BS!......   Perhaps you should back up to page one .....  Lee Oswald was in the first floor lunchroom at 12:27.   He could not have been on the sixth floor at the time JFK was ambushed and murdered.   This very elementary FACT flushes al of your BS down the drain.

As usual, you are trying to change the subject after being confronted with the facts and logic.  We were discussing here why Oswald might try to assassinate both a right winger like Walker and a Democrat like JFK.  Haven't you yourself suggested that Oswald fired the shots at Walker and JFK (albeit in some delusion fantasy scenario that he intentionally missed as part of some conspiracy to get him to Cuba)?  If so, we are not in disagreement that Oswald pulled the trigger in both instances.

Let's see what we actually got here;

Political assassination involving a sniper are extremely rare events.  After the JFK assassination, it would be entirely reasonable to speculate that another such attempt in Dallas to assassinate another political figure via a sniper attack within just a few months of the JFK assassination was related.  It wouldn't take Sherlock Holmes to conclude that two such rare events occurring in proximity both in time and place might be committed by the same person.  And, of course, the evidence subsequently confirmed this was the case.  There is no doubt of the fact that Oswald committed both crimes.  In fact, Oswald confessed to his wife about the Walker attempt.  He left his rifle at the scene of the JFK assassination. 

Just because Walker and JFK were of different political backgrounds is not cause for doubt.  Both were targets of opportunity due to their presence in Dallas.  Oswald hated Walker because of his right wing beliefs.  He hated the US because of its opposition to Russia/Cuba and JFK was the symbolic representative of the US.  Killing him was a symbolic revolutionary act against the system that Oswald detested when the opportunity fell into his lap.  Seemingly, a quirk of fate that a homicidal political nut happened to work in a building overlooking the motorcade.  In retrospect, however, the obvious security flaws involved in driving the president around in an open car on a preannounced route are obvious.  Sooner or later someone was going to exploit that flaw.  Oswald happened to be first in line.

it would be entirely reasonable to speculate

might be committed by the same person

Facts and logic, you say? Not so much. More just pure speculation.

And, of course, the evidence subsequently confirmed this was the case. 

No it didn't, regardless of what Marina testified.

Thank you Gary,   for posting the article from the German News paper.  It seems rather brief for a sensational story. Do you suppose that the reporter didn't believe the tale that General Walker unloaded on him on Saturday morning 11/23/63?   

The story wasn't published until Nov. 29.   If the editor really believed Walker's tale he would have rushed the paper to publication, and it would have been picked up and published round the world by 11/24 /63. 

This wild tale from Walker reveals the panic he felt.....  He realized that his neck was in the noose if Lee Oswald  started talking about the plot.  He with out a doubt breathed a huge sigh of relief when Jack Ruby murdered Lee Oswald.

You are easily confused.  We are discussing two different points in time.  Right after the assassination, there could only be speculation that the two crimes were related due to their similarity, uniqueness, and proximity in time and place.  An investigation then occurred that confirmed the fact.  Oswald confessed to his own wife.  The fact that you don't like this is meaningless as to the facts.

Pay close attention dumbass......  I'm not changing the subject.  I'm merely relating the FACT  that Lee Oswald was in the 1st floor lunchroom at 12:27 and he was not on the sixth floor at 12:30.    THAT mr "Smith" is a FACT.   I'm not going to discuss nonsense with you.... Extract your head and then perhaps we can talk....

I pray that your post catches fire Gary.....  This brief story in the German weekly newspaper is dynamite.
