Oswald's strange behaviour and lies regarding the long brown paper rifle bag.

[John Corbett]

JM-

The HSCA was a group of smart and skeptical people, and they concluded LHO owned the M-C rife (technically a carbine) in question.

They were congressmen. Do you think we send our best and brightest people to Congress? As for skeptical, they weren't the least bit skeptical about the acoustic evidence on which they based their erroneous conclusion of a fourth shot and a second shooter.

It sure looks like LHO carried a suspicious bundle into the TSBD6 on 11.22, and then slender light-skinned male was seen (by Howard Brennan) firing three shots from the TSBD6 sniper window in the direction of the limo, while gunfire rang out.

I believe Brennan only located Oswald in time to see the final shot. He would have had no reason to be looking in that direction when the first shot was fired.

Three loud shots were heard inside the TSBD during the JFKA, three shells found in the TSBD6 sniper window.

Not one eyewitness said they saw LHO while shots rang out. LHO was invisible. The Prayer-woman image is risible.

Brennan is one eyewitness and he saw Oswald fire the third shot.

I would lay heavy odds LHO was the TSBD6 sniper.

I would put it at 100%

But, IMHO, LHO could not have perped the GK smoke-and-bang-show, nor fired rounds that struck Gov. JBC ~Z-295 and JFK at Z-313.

Nobody fired a shot from the GK. There's no forensic evidence. There is no eyewitness who saw a shooter.

US State Dep't employees, including the Ambassador to Mexico, lost their jobs for merely wanting to pursue LHO-Cuba leads.

Hadn't heard that one. Do you have a source for it.

LHO met with three KGB officers in MC. On a Saturday! LHO may have met G2 ops in New Orleans (says Gus Russo). Alpha 66 had a house on Harlandale in Dallas, where a lone eyewitness placed LHO. Alpha 66 was penetrated by G2.

Sounds a lot like they embellished stories I've read about for years.

LHO may have been induced by money, or promise of flight to Cuba, to participate in the JFKA.

How would anybody in MC have known at the time that Oswald would be working in a building overlooking a motorcade route that hadn't even been planned yet. Nobody even knew there was going to be a motorcade. Why would anybody in MC have any interest in working with Oswald?

Remember...why did President LBJ direct the WC to conclude with the LN narrative?

Why are you making things up?

 

LBJ, with a lot of good reasons, wanted to avoid a nuke war with Russia.

Also, there just was not much JFKAC there. A small plot, with no oversight or participation by institutions...left no trails to follow, once LHO was dead.

So would Oswald being a lone assassin.

JC-

The HSCA may have not been perfect, but they were staffed up, and Robert Blakey was reasonable and intelligent man (with whom I have traded e-mails).

The actual House Representatives on the HSCA did not seem to add much, although most had law degrees and what not, and were likely a relatively intelligent group. (I am the first to assent that public office-holder quality has declined in the last 40 years).

As for the acoustics evidence, I never could make head nor tails of any of it.

I can see the Z-film, frame by frame, and make my own layman's analysis.

The acoustics stuff----click sounds on a tape?

Some experts say they are important and others say they are not important.

I have no idea.

I'm sure Robert Blakey was intelligent and just as sure he got duped.

I don't know that it has ever been top drawer. I think ambition more than intelligence directs people to seek public office.

As for the acoustics evidence, I never could make head nor tails of any of it.

It was never scrutinized and didn't survive peer review. I think it was Steve Barber who noticed the crosstalk from the other channel and concluded the recording was made after the assassination.

I do. The supposed acoustics evidence is not a recording of the shooting. It has been dunked every which way. Dale Myers proved through film and still photos that the motorcycle that was believed to have had the stuck open transmitter was not where the acoustics team said it had to be for their findings to be valid. It was junk science dumped on the HSCA at the 11rh hour that was never given the scrutiny it should have been  given it was the primary basis for the HSCA's conclusion of a fourth shot, a second gunman, and a conspiracy.
