Was Oswald a "dangle" in a planned-to-fail mole hunt run by a mole?

"Not if Solie did the arranging with the OML and the RID, himself."---TG

Yes, but Bruce Solie had to talk to someone in OML and RID to arrange this, or possibly send a memo.

Who ever was that CIA employee in OML-RID, they would have known that well before the JFKA, that Bruce Solie had manipulating information flows, paper traffic regarding LHO.

Evidently, that OML-RID person never came forward, after the JFKA, to reveal that Solie (at a minimum) had an intense interest in LHO preceding the JFKA, and organized flow of information to himself, and away from anyone else in the CIA.

Was it the job of people in the OML and RID to speculate on why they'd been requested to do something by a person in authority, and to wonder whether or not that person might have had a sinister motive in doing so?

I don't know how important the role, and supervisorial responsibilities, were of the actual employees in OML-RID, or the actual supervisor in the OML-RID.

If a particular CIA'er made unusual demands upon OML-RID...should the OML-RID guys report it somewhere?

If a particular CIA'er was essentially censoring information by routing traffic...maybe that was a red flag they were responsible for reporting.

The point remains, Solie told someone, I assume a supervisor, in OML-RID to route LHO paper traffic to him (Solie). That supervisor never said anything, even after the JFKA.

Like Snyder, and Angleton, they knew something was up after the JFKA...but kept mum.

Maybe. Maybe not. Maybe. Maybe not. Maybe . . .

You seem to love to speculate from a contrarian point of view, you're looking at it with the information I've given you which OML and RID didn't have (i.e., that Solie was probably a KGB mole), and you're judgmentally proclaiming what they should have done.
