Audio of HSCA’s Interviews with Fidel Castro

[Denis Morissette]

Anyone knows the name of that 1967? Maybe Clear the Air in which a British journalist claims that Fidel Castro told him that Castro would have said that Kennedy should be killed. Anyone knows about this? Also, Robert Blakey addresses the Mysterious Deaths Project. Sylvia Duran is discussed as well. Click on CC on the video. and request Translation in English. I suggest you use Speed 1.7X.

The journalist was Comer Clark, a British writer. According to his account, Castro said:

      I [Castro] was told he [Oswald] wanted to work for us. He was asked to explain, but he wouldn’t. The second time [Oswald came to the embassy], he said he wanted to “free Cuba from American imperialism.” Then he said something like, “Somebody ought to shoot that President Kennedy. Maybe I’ll try to do it.”

And Castro added: "Yes, I heard of Lee Harvey Oswald’s plan to kill President Kennedy. It’s possible that I could have saved him, but I didn’t."

According to Jack Childs, an FBI double agent ("Operation Solo") who was working for the Communist Party of the United States, Castro told him a similar story.

"Oswald was involved," Castro insisted. "Our people in Mexico gave us the details in a full report of how he acted when he came to our embassy. He stormed into the embassy, demanded a visa, and when it was refused him, he headed out saying ‘I’m going to kill Kennedy for this.’ What is your government doing to catch the other assassins? Yes, it took about three people.”

Castro denied the allegation.

Thank you so much, Steve! Castro said that the writer claimed he interviewed him in a pizzeria. It would have been reckless to reveal that around customers.

From Vince Bugliosi's book.....

"British tabloid journalist Comer Clark...in an October 1967 edition of the National Enquirer...wrote that on July 15, 1967, he had an exclusive interview with [Fidel] Castro late one night in a Havana pizzeria. He quotes Castro as saying, "Lee Oswald came to the Cuban Embassy in Mexico City twice. The first time, I was told, he wanted to work for us. He was asked to explain, but he wouldn't. He wouldn't go into details. The second time he said something like: 'Someone ought to shoot that President Kennedy.' Then Oswald said--and this was exactly how it was reported to me--'Maybe I'll try to do it.' This was less than two months before the U.S. President was assassinated...Yes, I heard of Lee Harvey Oswald's plan to kill President Kennedy. It's possible I could have saved him. I might have been able to, but I didn't. I never believed the plan would be put into effect."

The HSCA learned that Clark, who died in 1972, "wrote extensively for the sensationalist press in England. His articles include such items as 'British Girls as Nazi Sex Slaves' [and] 'I Was Hitler's Secret Love'."

When the HSCA asked Castro on April 3, 1978, about Clark's allegation, he responded in a blizzard of denunciatory words. Among them: "This is absurd. I didn't say that. It has been invented from the beginning until the end. It's a lie from head to toe. If this man [Oswald] would have done something like that, it would have been our moral duty to inform the United States."

Denying that he had ever met Clark or been interviewed by him, [Castro] said, "How could [this man] interview me in a pizzeria? I never go to public restaurants...I would never have given a journalist an interview in a pizzeria...What is the job of that journalist? What is he engaged in? ... You should...find [out] who he is and why he wrote it." "

Thanks, David. Castro says all the above in the videos I posted.

President Johnson was deeply concerned with information regarding alarming and threatening remarks made by Fidel Castro against JFK; and the mounting evidence of Cuba’s Minint officers’ connection in the assassination. The profound dislike between Castro and the Kennedys was mutual. On September 8, 1963, ten weeks before Lee Harvey Oswald murdered President Kennedy in Dallas, Fidel Castro spoke at a reception in the Brazilian Embassy in Havana. He raised his voice and said: “The United States’ leaders must realize that if they assist in the terrorist plans to eliminate Cuban leaders, they themselves will be in danger.”  [Haynes Johnson, “The Bay of Pigs” New York: Norton Company, 1964] p. 354

There are various accounts of Castro threatening, on Sept. 8 1963, retaliation for the many times the Kennedys tried to have him assassinated.
