Is it possible that it was easier to know if someone was CIA back in the early 1960s than when you were working in army intel? Alot of people in ww2, such as being in the military and OSS, went on to join the CIA. Therefore, because of their shared history during ww2, people might be able to track one another's career path thereafter and deduce someone was now working for the CIA.

I guess the other possibility is that Nagell was a CIA officer working under military cover. A bit like David Morales. Had Nagell publicly stated that, maybe he would lose his pension. This might explain how he knew so many CIA officers.

Unless he's right that the Soviets really did want him to prevent Oswald from following through on his mission.

Tom, normally I'm in board with your positions in this case but I do not agree with you that Nagell had anything whatsoever to do with the assassination. I believe Fred Litwin has presented a very convincing case that Nagell was a pathological liar with brain damage from an earlier plane crash, and that there is nothing of substance to his claims and stories.

No way. I might be able to guess the names of one or two CIA officers from among the guys I worked with, but not six. (Obviously, this does not include the one or two guys who I later learned were CIA.)

As I think about it, I can only remember one instance where I later learned that someone who worked in my department was CIA, and that was at an NSA site in the 1990s.

For the full story on Richard Case Nagell, I recommend the second edition of Dick Russell's book The Man Who Knew Too Much.

Barring some future self-evident and undeniable disclosure on Nagell, WC apologists are never going to admit that Nagell was a high-level intel operative, much less that his story about Oswald and foreknowledge of the assassination is credible. They're just never gonna do it. They'll nit-pick and offer one lame excuse after another to reject Nagell and his account.

Here's a helpful article about Nagell:

Even if he was a high level intel operative, it means nothing. If he was unstable enough to fire a gun inside a bank he was unstable enough to spin a manufactured JFKA story.

Michael won't read any of my blog posts on Richard Case Nagell.

It is just so incredibly easy to debunk Dick Russell.

For instance, here is his big smoking gun:

https://www.onthetrailofdelusion.com/post/is-this-document-the-smoking-gun-on-the-richard-case-nagell-story

Richard Case Nagell's non-existent evidence:

https://www.onthetrailofdelusion.com/post/richard-case-nagell-s-nonexistent-evidence

And here is a favorite of mine:

https://www.onthetrailofdelusion.com/post/did-richard-case-nagell-warn-fidel-castro-about-the-assassination


But wait, there's more:

It's time for conspiracy theorists to jettison Richard Case Nagell.

Dear Fred,

Why did probable KGB mole Bruce Leonard Solie (look him up) illegally withhold Office of Security files on Nagell and Oswald from the HSCA?

Thanks.

I don't think he withheld anything about Nagell.
