Anyone but Tom understand what the "KGB stuff" is all about?

[Tom Graves]

[LP] may have overstated the case against Bagley/Angleton. There were (and are?) plenty of people in the CIA skeptical about Nosenko.

FPR doesn't want to learn about mole-protecting putative KGB staff officer / false defector-in-place in Geneva in June 1962 / false (or perhaps rogue) physical defector to the U.S. in February 1964 Yuri Nosenko because Nosenko isn't a "hoot" and because he intuits that if he did learn about him, he'd have to consider the possibility that the KGB* really DID install The Traitorous Orange Bird (rhymes with "Xxxx") as our "president."

John Newman is a serious researcher, and he has posited Bruce Solie was a KGB mole and running LHO.

Dear "BC,"

Please remember to say, "Probable KGB mole Bruce Leonard Solie (look him up) in the mole-hunting Office of Security was father-figure-requiring James Angleton's confidant, mentor, and mole hunting superior."

LHO spoke of assassinating JFK while in MC.

Correction:

The allegation that Oswald spoke in Mexico City of killing JFK comes from Fidel Castro and his interviewer(s), Kremlin-loyal quadruple-agent(s) Morris and /or Jack Childs (aka the gumshoe-FBI's "SOLO").

Tom is roughly right that the KGB, or other Soviet assets, have been running disinformation campaigns in the US during the entire postwar era, and surely they often manipulated left-wing assets in doing so.

"Roughly right"?

"Surely"?

Tom now contends Moscow is manipulating right-wing assets also. Tucker Carlson anyone?

The KGB* has been manipulating everyone for several decades, e.g., Oliver Stone AND us through his self-described mythological ("to counter for the myth of the Warren Report") movie (sic), "JFK."

I rather suspect John Simkin is deep into his dotage.

I rather suspect John Simkin is an aging Trotskyite.

TG--Good points.
