Galbraith is sniping quotes and ignoring the vast evidence of JFK preparing to do detente with the communists in all the theaters he mentions...

The reason they assassinated Kennedy was because he very much intended radical moves and intended to negotiate peace with the Russians and Cubans - and, yes, the North Vietnamese...It is clearly spelled out in Douglass and was done in order to keep from chasing emerging 3rd world countries that were nationalizing in to the hands of the all too willing communists...

Douglass made clear that Kennedy had to get elected in 1964 and if he showed his hand before that he would probably lose...

would be beyond out of proportion and far beyond innaccurate.

Can you think of a more accurate method?

Good point Tim Thumb1: maybe there is some distinct specific difference with Oswald’s rifle that would  prevent any trace of gunpowder from escaping the chamber even though it was exposed 3 times during the bolt operation ejection of shell and loading the next round?

What do you think about the CBS time trial shooters  not having used Oswald’s rifle? Does that invalidate the fact that 3 shooters were actually able to fire 3 shots and get at least 2 hits in less than 6 seconds?

An FBI agent fired Oswald's rifle three times and tested negative with the basic paraffin test. That establishes that the rifle could be fired without leaving gunpowder residue on the shooter's cheek.

The CBS test was a silly one because it required the shooters to fire 3 shots in under six seconds, something Oswald wasn't required to do. Even with the compressed time span for the shooting, some of the shooters scored 2 hits in 3 shots. I believe one of them score 3 hits.

Three shots in 5.6 seconds is a ridiculous constraint because it is only one second over the minimum time required to fire three aimed shots. It would have given the shooters just a half second additional time to aim the rifle. I guess nobody at CBS News ever bothered to read the WC conclusion on the time span of the shooting. Uncle Walter was still repeating the myth of 3 shots in under 6 seconds in 1988. One would expect more accuracy from a cub reporter than Cronkite gave us over several decades of reporting on the JFKA.

JFK Assassination Discussion & Debate / The Luna committee is bogus ...
« Last post by Brian Doyle on September 20, 2026, 04:23:19 PM »


Anna Lewis is the problem with Baker...Lewis was certain that Judyth associated with Oswald in the early spring of 1962...Like March or April...Since the Oswald who was arrested for killing Kennedy did not return from Russia until June 1962 that means Judyth had to know the southern Oswald (Lee)...This makes Judyth's claim that Oswald spoke Russian to her in the line at the Post Office problematic since Lee spoke no Russian...The Oswald who was arrested for killing Kennedy spoke Russian...So the problem here is if Judyth was telling the truth then she very much would have noticed the difference between Lee and Harvey...It could be that Baker is Deep and is not divulging a serious CIA secret...But never the less her refusing to sort this out does not bode well for her credibility...When caught Baker did her usual trying too hard to make up excuses around it routine...Baker tried to lie and push it back to fall that year...But Lewis refused to go along and insisted it was early spring (which it was)...

Baker's next bugaboo was her claim that she and Oswald intended to take a moonlight overnight hike from Cancun to Chichen Itza...When I nailed her on the fact that Chichen Itza was a hard 5 day jungle hike she went in to her making it up as she goes along routine and changed it to taking an overnight bus...She then spent way too many words trying to correct this obvious lie...Baker is full of it and obviously making it up as she goes along...Whether she knew Oswald in New Orleans as part of her CIA Oschner work is another question but she is definitely a disinformation mud-pumper...

As close as she allegedly was to Oswald she would not be able to avoid knowledge of Harvey & Lee...

There's nothing asinine about that comment.
You are little more than a robot constantly spewing the Warren Commission's narrative.
Is there a single point or detail that you deviate from the Warren Commission Report?

And name a single thing - the tiniest thing - that you have proven to anyone. You don't even know the difference between a fact and a theory. How can you 'prove' anything if you don't know what a fact is?
You are the second worst kind of frothing-at-the-mouth, rabid zealot. Your only saving grace is that you don't hide what you are.

Name a single detail about the assassination where you differ from the Warren Commission's narrative.
And by the way - when did Oswald make his preparations? He was down on the first floor talking to Eddie Piper while Bonnie Ray was up on the 6th from noon until  a few minutes before the Presidential limo entered Dealey Plaza.
Maybe he was the man with the rifle Arnold Rowland saw on the 6th floor.
Try to think for yourself for a change.

I was trying to offer to the LNs  a possible  rational alternative that explains Dougherty not seeing anything in Oswald’s hands when Oswald entered the back door of TSBD that morning to replace the standard LN “he just was  not paying attention” argument. So I just letting you know I’m not  attacking either you or John Corbett . I’m just trying to have a Socratic dialogue and that means questioning the status quo.

Thompson thinks the two men Bowers saw were "behind" the fence (see excerpt below). They weren't. They were in front.

As Bowers testified:
Mr. BOWERS - "Directly in line, towards the mouth of the underpass, there were two men. One man, middle-aged, or slightly older, fairly heavy-set, in a white shirt, fairly dark trousers. Another younger man, about midtwenties, in either a plaid shirt or plaid coat or jacket."

Note: Plaid shirt/coat/jacket.. The obvious choice of clothing for any sniper.

And:
Mr. BOWERS - They were standing within 10 or 15 feet of each other, and gave no appearance of being together, as far as I knew.

And:
Mr. BOWERS - He [DPD motorcycle officer Haygood] came up into this area where there are some trees, and where I had described the two men were in the general vicinity of this.
Mr. BALL - Were the two men there at the time?
Mr. BOWERS - I--as far as I know, one of them was. The other I could not say. The darker dressed man was too hard to distinguish from the trees. The white shirt, yes; I think he was.

The man in plaid coat/jackert is on the left below. To his right is the older man in the white shirt (most likely Emmett Hudson, the Plaza grounds keeper). These are, based on all of his statements, the two men I think Bowers saw "towards the mouth of the underpass." You can't be "towards the mouth of the underpass" if you are behind the fence.

Note: Bowers never mentions hearing a shot from the fence. Or seeing anyone with a rifle. These are called clues, clues there wasn't a gunman behind the fence. In JFK conspiracy world they are clues there *was* a gunman. But of course.



Here is Thompson in his book. Notice the dismissal of Bower's friends' accounts? "Garbled at best". In fact, if you read the entire section on Bowers you'll see that Thompson is dismissal of him too. He wants to use selected parts of Bowers account to support his more important witness: Sam Holland.

A muzzle-loading rifle does not issue fire slugs at supersonic speeds.

I guess we can add this to the long list of subjects you are ignorant about. The below article has a chart that lists muzzle velocities for a wide variety of loads for a muzzle loading rifle and most of them are supersonic.

Who knows what you were hearing.

I do.

What you heard from a muzzle-loading rifle has no bearing on what Bowers heard during the JFKA.

Bowers testimony is rather clear.

I guess reading comprehension isn't your strong suit either. I didn't say the muzzle loading rifle had any bearing on what Bowers heard. It had a bearing on what I heard. I heard a double sound from a single shot. I know it was a single shot because a muzzle loader can't fire two shots in rapid succession.

Needless to say, if the alleged magic bullet even grazed the spine during its supposed journey, it is doubly impossible that it could have created a throat wound that was small (5 mm), neat, and punched inward, much less a throat wound that had damage behind and beneath it that was larger than the wound itself.

It's amazing how many of your beliefs begin with an "if".

JFK Assassination Short Railroad Yard Scenes With Dallas Deputy Sheriff  Roger Dean Craig - 5 Different Speeds


    At :12 - :14 seconds we see the lost Darnell Film snippet that "The JFK Theorist" included in a YOU TUBE video he posted there. This snippet also shows us Officer Harkness and what is alleged to be DPD Motorcycle Officer Haygood BEFORE 12:35 PM. That is Not Motorcycle Officer Haygood. What we are seeing is a Bogus DPD Motorcycle Cop making his way toward the TSBD. 
   12:35 - DPD Motorcycle Officer Haygood made a documented radio transmission from his motorcycle parked near the Triple Underpass.
   12:36 PM - Officer Harkness made a documented police radio transmission that he had an eyewitness and was bringing that eyewitness to the TSBD.
   That DPD Motorcycle Officer we see in this snippet is NOT OFFICER HAYGOOD. The time of this same snippet is NOT PRIOR TO 12:35 PM. What we are seeing on this snippet is a Bogus DPD Motorcycle Cop. The time of this snippet would be 12:38 - 12:39. What we are seeing in this snippet is well after DPD Motorcycle Officer Haygood made his documented 12:35 radio transmission from his motorcycle parked near the triple underpass.
