JFK Assassination Discussion & Debate / Re: Andrew Iler Cannot Clean Up Education Forum
« Last post by Benjamin Cole on Today at 03:03:13 AM »
SMG--

Verily, JFK was an ardent and active global anti-communist. That JFK might make adjustments in his Vietnam anti-communist policies and strategies is hardly a reason for anyone to assassinate JFK.

JFK's acceding to a plot to stage a US-financed coup against the Diems remains a blot on his record, especially as he was warned the coup would likely be lethal, and could destabilize SV, which it did.

Nevertheless, read JFK statements why he created (or revivified) the Green Beret and USAID. All about fighting global communism. Why did JFK risk a nuke war over Cuba? To keep communism out of the New World.

The leftists have tried to re-frame JFK as singing kumbaya with Castro and Khrushchev, and holding hands with Muslim dictatorships and despots, but it is all demented hagiography.

RFK was assassinated for being an Israel-backer.

Quote from: Michael T. Griffith on Yesterday at 03:24:30 PM

-- This same WC apologist has just argued that the Connally wrist fragments and thigh fragment could have come from CE 399 because they supposedly had a combined weight of only 2.3 grains, citing Robert Frazier's suspiciously light weight of 0.5 grains for the four wrist fragments, which would mean they were nothing but flakes. 0.5 grains is the weight of two particles of dust, a human eyelash, or a pinch of powder. 

So, Robert Frazier lied, eh?   ::)

Dr Gregory said that the largest fragment was approximately 2mm in diameter and that none of the fragments had a greater thickness than 0.5mm.

Looking at the fragments that he removed, the only one that stands out at all is the 2mm one. The other three were too insignificant in size to even be included in the description of CE-842. Specter referred to them in the singular, as did Frazier as well. Audrey Bell did as well on the transfer receipt. Agent J. Doyle William also referred to them in the singular.



We'll assume that the 2mm fragment was 0.5mm thick. At 2mm x 0.5mm, the fragment weighed 17.8 milligrams , which is one quarter of a grain. Frazier obviously rounded up to one half of a grain.

SMG--

Thanks for your reply.

I have little confidence that either Havana or Moscow (Minsk) would ever release any documents that would reveal LHO as an asset, or that he was working for Bruce Solie, who was a KGB asset.

I have no idea if such documents exist, ever existed, or have been destroyed. Sadly enough, both Moscow and Havana remain brutal dictatorships. Whatever comes out of those capitals in the last 63 years has been to besmirch the US image and sanitize theirs.

What I am saying is that serious people, such as former CIA Director James Woolsey, concluded LHO was a KGB asset, but also that President LBJ on 11/24 put the kibosh on following up that narrative.

I am sure you know the backstory of LHO visiting three KGB officers in Mexico City in September-October 1963. LHO  ties to G2 or DGI assets. Castro's public warning in September that assassinations can go both ways (this after the Kennedy Administration tried to assassinate Castro a few times).

The HSCA concluded there had been a gunshot at the GK when the JFK limo passed, and that there was a probability of a JFKAC.

Caveat emptor, and draw your own conclusions. They will be as good as anyone else's.

Hi Alex, to be honest, I'm coming up with an even quicker time for the beginning of the Darnell footage that begins with this frame:



It's something closer to 19 seconds as I believe Weigman is in position filming the Hesters during this frame.
Whatever the case, a big thanks to yourself for providing some excellent quality footage to work with.

   It has always been a mystery to me why the Hesters would move from the Bench Area back to roughly the middle of the Pergola and THEN believe they needed to get down on the ground. Same goes for Mumford moving from the curb to up on the Knoll and THEN getting down on the ground. And the Chism Family moving from the curb/street, going well UP the knoll and THEN literally sprinting across it to the other side of Officer Haygood's motorcycle.

I never really share this info before but, well, here goes nothing, I'm actually 14, and i never actually shot on film, i'm from Brazil, and, see, unlike Alex (great guy by the way), i don't have $1500 or anywhere near that to pay for scans, But hopefully in the future when i sell my kidneys- i mean, find a way to make money, i wanted to have a HD scan of the DCA film, yes i'm a DCA fanboy. I have done amateur multi camera syncronizations of some films before but i never really touched anything Darnell, Wiegman or Couch related (probably because all those films don't surface in the best quality), heck, i personally get tired of always seeing constant re-uploads of the Groden DVD. Which isn't ideal, since i'm looking for unique sources, but oh well, the JFKA community is one hell of a community.

    If you have access to "YOU TUBE", you can access Alex's\"The JFK Theorist" videos there. This includes many of the JFK Assassination Films in higher definition. The Groden DVD is garbage compared to what Alex has posted. There are others on YOU TUBE that have posted Hi Def JFK Assassination films too. This includes the Zapruder Film.

We don't know when the preparation took place but since Oswald hadn't filled any of his assigned orders that morning, he had plenty of time.

Exactly when did he have plenty of time to make the Sniper's Perch and assemble his rifle?

Quote
We also don't know whether he stacked the boxes to make the wall or just took advantage of what was there. A crew was laying a new floor and they might have stacked those boxes up to get them out of the way while they worked on another part of the floor. In any case, we know a wall of boxes had been built by someone,

No-one mentioned anything about him building the wall. Why are you going on about that? Why not read the posts you are responding to.
The "Rolling Reader" boxes used to make the Sniper's Perch were taken from a few aisles away. Therefore, in your scenario, Oswald got these boxes and brought them to the Sniper's Nest to construct a rest for the rifle.
The long bag in the corner led the Warren Commission to speculate that Oswald took the disassembled rifle to that corner and reassemble it sat on a box by the Perch. They also concluded it took about 6 minutes to assemble the rifle.

So, when, exactly, did Oswald have all this "plenty of time" to make these preparations?

Quote
and we know Oswald had reassembled his rifle prior to using it to kill JFK. It is unnecessary to prove when he did it.

As you will see, it's very necessary for it to be established when he made these preparations.

I've been able to successfully synchronize most of the aftermath footage within a margin of error of +/- 1 or 2 frames (1/24 of a sec) and the minimum time between Zapruder frame 313 and the beginning of Darnell's and Mal Couch's footage is 24 seconds. The work of Dale Myers supports this figure, though I assume most will not believe it simply because of his name, which I find odd.

I find Bart Kamp's claim that Darnell began filming 10 SECONDS after the headshot to be completely hysterical, since my own synchronizations, and Myers' too, have consistently shown it to be impossible for Darnell to have started filming prior to at least 24 seconds after the headshot.

I do not intend to release my synchronizations publicly any time soon because they still lack high quality versions of most footage, and due to certain disagreements I've had before, I am weary of sharing them, but if anyone would like, I can provide copies and/or clips from my synchronizations if necessary.

You're all welcome to disagree with my timing, but I'm not likely to respond, given I don't come on here often, and I find most forums to be rather hostile or mostly unhelpful anyway.

Email me at thejfktheoristmail@gmail.com if needed.

JFK Assassination Discussion & Debate / Re: JFK Facts: Putin Not Coughing Up LHO Files
« Last post by Steve M. Galbraith on Today at 12:43:03 AM »
The ABC News "Nightline" program, hosted by Ted Koppel, reported on these files back in 1991 shortly after the Soviet Union collapsed. They said they were told the files would be available but then Russian authorities limited their investigation to one day only. These were apparently the same files that Norman Mailer was allowed to see when he was in Minsk working on his book on Oswald.

The Russian news organization "Izvestiya" reported that they were given access to the files at the same time. They published a five part series on the files. One of their reports included a story about an attempt by the KGB in Minsk to test Oswald by sending out people who told him they had access to classified/secret information. Apparently Oswald never showed interest.

I am surprised that there has not been more discussion about the Kennedy Center. Trump cannot destroy the Kennedy Center. If he bulldozes it, we will rebuild it exactly as it was, as much as possible, and it will only carry John F. Kennedy name.

Nothing in Washington D. C. will be named after Trump except, perhaps, a new sewage pipeline designed to help clean up the Potomac River.
As far as most Americans are concerned, the Kennedy Center is an institution of rich people, by rich people, and for rich people. BTW, feel free to add the word "white" next to "rich." All but the most diligent PBS-watchers don't care, other than who's name is involved.
