SMG-

Sen. Richard Russell filed a dissent of sorts to the WC results, and later Rep. Hale Boggs and Sen. John Sherman Cooper said they no longer believed the WC findings.

Robert Blakey said even w/o the acoustics he would have gone with the final HSCA result.

That is the JFKA---always contentious.

Which shows that members of Congress are as prone to be gullible to nonsense as everyone else.

The facts haven't changed since the WCR was released 62 years ago. What has changed is the proliferation of myths surrounding the JFKA. Some people have been hoodwinked by the nonsense while others have rejected it.

JFK Facts, assassination researcher Jeff Morley's shop, is very predictable in relentlessly presuming that the CIA played a role in the JFKA, when not dog-whistling that maybe actually it was Mossad who master-minded the plot.

They have never made a compelling case for the former argument, while the latter narrative seems plucked from thin air, or perhaps was fabricated to satisfy sponsors.

But the JFK Facts team is knowledgable, and cover the topic, and on 9/16 they said this:

As the House Oversight Committee prepares to issue its report on the status of the JFK files in November, one category of records will almost certainly remain out of reach for the time being. That category is the Soviet KGB’s surveillance files on accused assassin Lee Harvey Oswald, who lived in the Soviet Union from 1959-1962.

One of the less-followed paths in JFKACT-land are LHO's connections to the KGB, and Havana's G2 and DGI intel services.

It is known from US JFK records releases that the KGB chief in Minsk identified LHO as asset during his stay in Russia, though it is unclear how the Minsk KGB'er regarded LHO thereafter.

Former CIA Director James Woolsey went further and identified LHO as a KGB asset, perhaps one that was brainwashed by Russians, in his 2021 book Operation Dragon: Inside the Kremlin's Secret War on America.

I would say a former CIA director has more cred than the usual JFKA buff.

Lately, researcher John Newman identified LHO as working for CIA'er Bruce Solie, who himself was a KGB mole or asset. CIA'er Tennent Bagley thought that LHO had been a "witting asset" of the CIA, and further suspected Solie's loyalties. The CIA of the 1950s and 1960s has been described as riddled with KGB assets.

Was LHO a de facto CIA asset? Who knows? President LBJ instructed the WC to find out no such thing.

It is worth pondering why the Russian docs on LHO have not been released. Of course, who would trust such docs anyway?

Who knows if there are any G-2 or DGI files in Havana on LHO, and what they say?

We are, in large part, still flying blind on the JFKA. 

JFKA Researchers have been barking up the CIA tree on the JFKA for six decades, and have not really chased the possum down.

Maybe barking up the wrong tree?

I posted this challenge to the CTs four days ago and the only one willing to comment was one who believes the SBT. This is not at all surprising. Much of the CT skepticism about the WCR rests on their rejection of the SBT. One of the few things in the WCR that I disagreed with was their statement that the SBT was not essential to the finding that Oswald was the lone assassin. I agree with the CTs who have taken the position that without the SBT, there had to be a second shooter. However, the SBT has stood the test of time and it remains the only plausible explanation for JFK's non-fatal wounds and all of JBC's wounds.

Since most CTs reject the SBT and that rejection is so critical to their rejection of the single assassin, the question I posed to them in the OP is a real conundrum for them. JBC's sudden flip of his right arm at Z226, simultaneous with the beginning of JFK's rapid upward movement with both arms is an inconvenient truth for them. When I posed this question to Tony Marsh on John McAdams' forum his response was to simply deny JBC made any such movement of his right arm, which of course is ludicrous. It's there for all to see.

I would wager that most people, LN and CT alike, are even aware of JBC's arm flip. I'm sure no one on the WC noticed it. I first became aware of it when I saw it on David von Pein's outstanding website and I'm guessing that was roughly 10 years ago. When I saw that, any doubts I might have had about the SBT vanished. I don't know who first noticed that arm flip. For years, many LNs believed that JBC didn't react to being shot until the mid-Z230s which is when JBC himself believed he was struck. Since it was also believed that JFK was already reacting when he first reappeared at Z225, this forced them to believe JBC had a slightly delayed reaction. However, DVP's website dispelled both those myths. JFK was struck while he was behind the sign but his physical reaction didn't start until one frame after he reappeared. It also revealed that JBC had a two-stage reaction. First came the arm flip which was likely a completely involuntary reflexive response that JBC was completely unaware of. The second stage was the cognitive response JBC remembered making which was when he doubled over and twisted dramatically to his right, making almost a 180 degree rotation in his seat.

Maybe one of the SBT skeptics will eventually weigh in on this issue but I doubt it. Inconvenient truths are best left ignored when they challenge one's foundational beliefs.

The image above is the opening frame of Jimmy Darnell's footage of the immediate aftermath of the JFKA.
I would like to determine, to the second if possible, how long after the headshot this footage started.
One thing that should be visible in this footage is Dave Weigman getting out of the car in front and sprinting towards the concrete pergola on the GK.
The only thing that catches my eye at the moment is a detail off in the distance.

In the crop below, in the red circle are Umbrella Man and Dark Complected Man sat down.
In the yellow circle is the Newman's lying flat on the grass. The reason this is important is that there are no photographers stood around them. This is something that seemed to happen really quickly and it might be possible to use this detail for a timeline:



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.

I wasn't around when the OP was posted but now that the thread has been revived I am able to see it. My reaction is that there is ample evidence for explanation #1 and zero evidence for explanation #2. The latter is all conjecture.

   YES. He is moving (W) across the grass, just below the steps.

That is not true.
This figure is not moving across the grass.
He appears for less than two seconds and does not move from that spot.
There is a suggestion this figure is starting to get up from a prone position, that's all.
I can't understand how you are seeing him moving across the grass when it doesn't happen.
Below are three stills from the Bell film showing this figure when we first see him, half way though and the last moment we see him. The duration of his appearance is less than 2 seconds. In that time he does not move from that spot.
On top of that, he is not stood up, he is lying across the steps and about to get up:

Alright, thanks a lot! Hope my wallet survives though, free shipping is included, but once it gets in Brazil, it gets taxed, but i'll just save money to afford the item + any surprise taxes.

The back shot was at an upward angle that went on to make the dent by the mirror.

JFK Assassination Discussion & Debate / Re: The Kennedy Center
« Last post by Mark A. Oblazney on Yesterday at 08:57:45 AM »
To be fair, Trump has not proposed that Kennedy's name be removed from the center's name but only that his name be added: "The Donald J. Trump and the John F. Kennedy Memorial Center for the Performing Arts." Anyway, my point is that this is not the forum to be discussing such things.

“To be fair” ????    lolololololololololololololololo

You spread lies everyday about Jack’s death and you have the nerve to complain about something being “not the place to be discussing things”.  You have serious issues, my dude.  You should start erasing posts as well before meeting the G-d of your understanding.  zei gezunt.
