New Kennedy Info

This slipped by me the other day but a cache of Kennedy Assassination info was released this past month. One of the things that struck me was an transcript of an alleged conversation between Lee Harvey Oswald and Jack Ruby:

Meanwhile, there's some new information about the RFK shooting too. Apparently 14 total shots were fired far more than could be accounted for by a single gun:

Not sure what all can be done about any of this at this point. As is the case with some many of these mysteries, too much time has elapsed to expect any definitive new answers.

I find it tempting to believe that the two assassinations were the work of the same set of people....
They seem to have been able to carry out both executions in a very public manner yet remain shrouded in mystery somewhere three or four cutouts back....
The truth is i have a very great suspicion that LBJ was one of those conspirators.
I have always thought that those who gained from the deaths of both were the ones who had done the plotting to get them killed.
The arrows then point directly to the president (LBJ)and the CIA who kennedy was also after,as well as the mob.It is well understood fact that the CIA has worked through the mob for many different tasks that were beeter kept "Off the books".
I have also heard via rumour that the Kennedys Father had made a deal with the mafia to get Jonh Kennedy into the white house......the veracity of which i do not know.....
The brothers then reneged upon it.
The truth remains unknowable without the connecting links......There is too much disinfo to get to the nexus of the whole thing.....making me think that these assassinations were minor way points in a much more immense agenda than we will ever be able to fathom.

I have also heard that Joe Kennedy had negotiated with the Mafia to make sure the Chicago vote went to JFK. When Bobby Kennedy (as US Attorney general) initiated a crack-down on organized crime, I can well understand how the dons might have been a little miffed.

Now, I know there was very little love lost between Kennedy and Johnson but I hardly think that LBJ was capable of conspiracy to murder. Everything else we know about the man simply doesn't bear that out.

I heard about the LBJ theory about a year ago and thought...maybe. He was known to be somewhat of a hard ball character in Texas.....but to assassinate someone? I suppose it's possible but unlikely imo.
I never put any stock in the Castro theory either.
I think the mob would have the balls to do it. Some of those guys were freaking nuts from what I have read.

Personally, i consider the assassination of JFK to be the Coup Detat which wrested control of the American People from
The congress of the USA.
From that time onward history will one day show, that an elite cabal of of insidious proportions grown from the upper echelons of the second world war, and those who made huge profits from it had usurped the sovriegnty of the mightiest nation onm earth, and turned the world into their plundering ground.
Many other acts of assassination and killing have followed, as well as the extensive use of psychological principals in the managment of the populations most of the globe.
We may be now, in the brief pause before the final assault upon our minds and freedom.
Turn your TV off and throw it out! Television is programming our minds into mental dwarfism!
Your children are at grave risk!
By example of this .....did you know that by simply leaving one frame of the TV picture blank at a regular interval, they can hypnotize a large percentage of viewers?

Hmmm. Sometimes one is unable to see the bush for all the fallen trees. Who was Nixon's financier? I wonder what else was funded? New missile crisis is in the works. Kaliningrad has three regiments being extended and Iskander bottle-rockets on the way...

I hope the new President-elect lives to deal with this as well as JFK did in his era.

I think we read a lot more importance into JFK's murder than it probably deserves. Yes, this country and the world have changed profoundly in the last 50 years but, rather than the assassination being a cause, I think of it more as an effect.

As for Obama handling potential missile crises, I fear that the Russians and other potential enemies may misread him as weak and unwilling to take aggressive action. Whether that is true or not is another matter - but that perception amongst people who bear America ill-will is very dangerous.
