OK, I will say the HSCA said that JFK was "probably assassinated as a result of conspiracy." I used the word "likely."

JFK was probably assassinated as a result of the conspiracy, said the HSCA in 1979. The second official investigation into the JFKA.

AI Overview        

President Lyndon B. Johnson used the threat of a nuclear war that could "kill 40 million Americans in an hour" to pressure key leaders into joining the Warren Commission.

The Phone Calls and the "40 Million Dead" Threat

The Context: Immediately after the assassination of President John F. Kennedy in November 1963, LBJ feared that unverified public rumors and conspiracy theories blaming Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev or Cuban leader Fidel Castro could escalate into an international military conflict.

The Argument: To convince reluctant officials—including Senator Richard Russell and Chief Justice Earl Warren—to serve on the investigating panel, Johnson argued that a credible, unified national investigation was vital to prove Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone and to prevent public panic from sparking a catastrophic nuclear war.

Persuading Earl Warren: Chief Justice Earl Warren initially turned down requests to lead the commission, believing that a sitting Supreme Court justice should not take orders or lead an inquiry for the executive branch. According to recorded telephone transcripts and historical accounts, Johnson summoned Warren to the White House, pressed him on the grave national security risks, and reportedly invoked FBI intelligence regarding potential foreign involvement. Warren ultimately broke down in tears and agreed to serve "for the good of America".

Elsewhere I have posted on State Dept employees in Mexico getting canned for wanting to pursue Havana leads into the JFKA.

Hoover, tight with LBJ, was working the LHO-LNT within 48 hours.

You are correct, the HSCA concluded LHO was the sole gunman who struck the target, even if there was a diversion, or fourth shot at JFK, from GK.

I have reservations about that conclusion. But each to his own.

The standard CT dodge when asked to produce evidence that doesn't exist. In the last few days, MTG has resorted to this 3 times. Anthony Marsh was famous for this tactic on McAdams' forum. He would invariably follow it up with "Learn to google".

Tell us who those witnesses were and what they said they saw.

And the correct solution does not have to explain every aspect of the Tague wounding. One fact is crystal clear: the lone-gunman theory has no rational, credible way to explain the Tague incident. The least-absurd theory that you can offer is patently ridiculous and utterly unscientific.

This from a guy who has offered no alternative explanation for how the Tague injury occurred. Why don't you give us an alternative theory wo we can compare it to the possibilities that it was caused by one of Oswald's shots. As is the custom for most CTs, you set the bar very high for the LNs and very low for yourself. We are expected to prove every last detail with 100% certainty while you are allowed to speculate while providing no evidence.

In contrast, I can offer at least two plausible shooting locations from which a bullet could have barely missed JFK's head and then hit the Tague curb. Your only shooting location is the sixth-floor window, from which no bullet could have been fired that had even a remote chance of hitting the Tague curb and causing Tague's wound.

If you can, why don't you.

A number of plausible explanations have been offered for how a shot from Oswald's rifle could have continues down range and struck the curb near Tague. Posner has theorized the bullet hit a tree branch. I don't necessarily believe that but I can't logically refute it either. Others have suggested the bullet struck the traffic arm that the limo passed under. Again, not my theory but possible. I lean toward the first shot missing to the right of the limo, ricocheting off the pavement and continuing down range to toward Tague. I used a Google Earther view of Dealey Plaza and it shows a line from the sniper's nest to where Tague was standing passes through the right lane of Elm St. Still others believe that a lead fragment from the headshot passed over the windshield and continued down range toward Tague. Without knowing the exit velocity of those fragments, it's impossible to say whether or not that was possible.

Now let's see your explanations.

Yes, exactly.

Notice he still has not explained what else could have hit the grass in such a way as to make Officer Foster feel certain that a bullet had hit the grass.

I don't need to explain it. You do. You are the one who has postulated that the hole in the turf is a bullet hole. The burden is on you to provide the evidence to support that. You have failed miserably.

Of course, to believe his lme denial, we'd have to believe that Lt. Day merely repeated what he'd heard, that the police inspector who talked with Dudman merely repeated what he'd heard, and that Walters' wife was lying when she said her husband told her they found a bullet in the grass.

All hearsay. Not one of these people is on record as saying they saw a bullet. [/quote]

And I guess we're supposed to believe that it means nothing that photos show that the man in the suit leaned down, put his hand in the hole, brought his hand upward with the hand cupped, and then put his hand in his pocket.

Tell us who that man was and what he said he found? Cite a source for these alleged photos so we can judge for ourselves what they show.
