Jim Garrison at one point thought that H.L. Hunt was behind the JFK assassination

I, for one, believe that both Lyndon Johnson and H.L. Hunt were behind the JFK assassination, as well as Col. D.H. Byrd and Gen. Edward Lansdale and various other Texas powerbrokers and CIA operatives. Just read John Curington's book on H.L. Hunt.

 Madeleine Brown: 

When I met Lyndon at the Driskill Hotel on New Years Eve, 'course he was President then, I asked him. I said, 'People in Dallas think you had more to gain than anyone from the assassination of John Kennedy, and I've got to know. I'm very disturbed about it.' He had one of his "Johnson fits" and said again, 'You don't see, hear, or repeat anything.' But he also said, 'It was the oil people that I knew and intelligence that had caused the assassination.' I have never disbelieved it because I knew the things that were going on in Dallas, Texas."

"...Malcolm Wallace was there in Dallas, Texas. I saw Mack Wallace out at the Dallas Gun Club practicing two or three days prior to the assassination... I have always felt that since the witnesses did hear the shots coming from the grassy knoll..."

Madeleine also remembered another incident before the assassination that gave her reason to think twice. She says that she and H. L. Hunt, one of the richest men in America used to park in the same parking lot on Jackson Street, and one day when they were walking up the same street they walked together almost every day, he said to her: "Come here, honey, I want to show you something." She looked at what he was holding and saw one of the caricature drawings of President Kennedy as a mug shot, saying "Wanted For Treason". Madeleine says she said to H.L. Hunt: "Oh my God, H.L., you can't do the President that way!" She continues, "I was so naive at the time, and he said, 'Hell I can't! I'm the richest man in the world, and I can do what I want to.' And he did. After the assassination... H.L. Hunt went to Washington and stayed three weeks with Lyndon over the oil depletion. H.L. Hunt came back to Dallas and said 'We've won the war.' The oil depletion was never mentioned again. And of course that was one of the things he hated John Kennedy over. But H.L. Hunt bragged almost all the time. He said, 'Well, we got him out of office.' That was it."

 

                                 H.L. Hunt:

We may have lost a battle but we are going to win a war.” H.L. Hunt to Madeleine Brown, LBJ’s girlfriend, upon Lyndon Johnson losing the Democratic nomination to John Kennedy in 1960.

H.L. Hunt: “How long are we going to let this go on? Are we goin’ to have to shoot those mafia bastards to get them out of office?” [Texas in the Morning, p. 163]

SIX EXAMPLES OF SQUIRELLY *WEIRD* BEHAVIOR BY KEY PLAYERS IN JFK ASSASSINATION.

 

H.L. Hunt - Texas oil and extremely close to LBJ

Lyndon Johnson

Allen Dulles - former president of CFR, built the CIA

McGeorge Bundy - former secretary of CFR, CIA, then NSC under Kennedy

GHW Bush - CIA at a young age (20's), later a director of CFR, later VP, then President

 

SIX EXAMPLES OF SQUIRELLY, *WEIRD* BEHAVIOR BY KEY PLAYERS IN JFK ASSASSINATION.

EXAMPLE ONE: H.L. HUNT ENDORSING TED KENNEDY IN 1968

H.L. Hunt endorsed Ted Kennedy for the Democratic nomination in 1968!!

When Lyndon Johnson on 12/31/63 told Madeleine Duncan Brown that it was Texas oil men and the CIA who murdered John Kennedy, LBJ was almost certainly referring to Clint Murchison, Sr. and H.L. Hunt. H.L. Hunt may have been the most reactionary AND richest single individual in the USA in his era.

H.L. Hunt was an ultra-reactionary whose political views most closely approximately a mixture of Gen. Curtis LeMay, Bull Conner, Strom Thurmond, Jesse Helms and preacher Billy James Hargis (who Hunt funded), Sen. Joe McCarthy (who Hunt supported). Put those 6 guys viewpoints in a blender and what comes out is purified H.L. Hunt. The ONLY reason H.L. Hunt supported Lyndon Johnson was that Hunt was a Texas oil man and Lyndon Johnson was buttering his bread, supporting the extremely valuable oil depreciation allowance tax benefit.

Check out this Texas Monthly article that talks about H.L. Hunt's ENDORSEMENT OF TED KENNEDY FOR PRESIDENT in 1968 (or at least for the Democratic party nomination)!!!

http://books.google....epage&q&f=false

That would be like Glenn Beck endorsing Nancy Pelosi for president or George Soros endorsing Michelle Bachman for President in 2012.

When someone does something *out of character* *squirelly* or *weird* ... it pays to pay attention. Ask why are they doing that? In the case of H.L. Hunt this looks like a crude attempt to cover his tracks in the JFK assassination. Remember by 1968 H.L. Hunt was getting a lot of attention cast his way over the JFK assassination. Many people already suspected him in it.

And 6 months before he died George de Mohrenshildt, a CIA guy, closest friend of Lee Harvey Oswald, and yet also a close friend of H.L. Hunt was telling folks that H.L. Hunt was behind the JFK assassination.

Charles Willoughby, very close to H.L. Hunt, and a key player in the JFK Assassination

1.     Charles Willoughby (Born Adolf Tscheppe-Weidenbach)

Willoughby was a fascist Germanophile with close ties to the administrations of Benito Mussolini, Fransisco Franco, and Hideki Tojo. In the US, he was a "power-behind-the-throne" in the extreme right (Minutemen, Young Americans for Freedom, John Birch Society) and a close associate of H.L. Hunt (Oil Baron). He also had close ties to the community of anti-Castro Cuban exiles. Willoughby had served in the Korean War as General Douglas MacArthur's chief of military-intelligence. He helped form Field Operations Intelligence (FOI), a top-secret Army Intelligence unit that would later come under the control of the CIA and the military.

Thus, Willoughby had intimate ties to:
--Nazi/Fascist powers in Italy, Spain, and Japan
--The extreme right in the USA (JBS, YAF, Minutemen, etc.)
--Texas Oil (Hunt)
--The US Military
--US Army Intelligence
--Anti-Castro Cubans
--Anti-Communist Movement

Interestingly, all of these factions have been connected to the assassination at one time or another. Willoughby does have a number of connections to the assassination:

--A long-distance telephone operator overheard a conversation between two men in which one stated
"The Castro plan is being carried out. Bobby is next." She traced the two telephone numbers, and found that one of them was the number of the Latin Affairs Editor of the Foreign Intelligence Digest, Charles Willoughby's publication. 

 

Pravda in 1963 and 2007: H.L. Hunt & Texas oil executives arranged the JFK assassination

WHO IS MORE RELIABLE ON THE JFK ASSASSINATION: PRAVDA, THE AMERICAN MEDIA OR THE KENNEDY FAMILY?

Which brings me to this question: who is a more reliable as a source for truth in the JFK assassination - Soviet party papers such as Pravda from the 1960's and Pravda in 2007 ... or The New York Times, Wash Post, ABC, NBC, CBS, FOX, CNN, MSNBC? Which news sources are more reliable for truth on the JFK assassination? Or even the Kennedy family?

Let's put it this way, the American MSM for the past 48 years has been much less reliable for JFK truth than say, 1950's Soviet Stalinist propaganda would have been.

I should add in the Kennedy family as well, as they played along with the Big Lie in a public fashion from the beginning:

Robert Kennedy: "As I said in Poland last summer, I am convinced Oswald was solely responsible for what happened and that he did not have any outside help or assistance. He was a malcontent who could not get along here or in the Soviet Union."

In 1963-64, the controlled Soviet press was saying "Texas oil barons played a fatal role" in the JFK assassination. Go to the 5th paragraph:
http://news.google.c...ssination&hl=en

From the Saskatoon Star-Phoenix Sept. 29, 1964: "A Soviet Russia newspaper Komsomolskya Pravda, continues to hold that "Texas oil barons played a fatal role" in the death of President Kennedy."

In 2007, here is Pravda
http://jfkfiles.blog...t-kennedy.html:

"Many experts on America believe that the conspiracy in Dallas was organized by a group of billionaires from Texas with Harold Hunt at head. The man was considered the world’s richest man of that time. The Texas businessman took an active part in the political life of America; he nominated Texas senator Lyndon Johnson for presidential election in 1960. The first attempt to promote Johnson was a failure, but Hunt finished the game in Dallas as a result of which Kennedy was killed and his candidate came to the White House."

Dale Meyers: "Why is this all so compromising for President Bush? According to Pravda, the inertness in the investigation of the crime is due to the fact that both George H.W. Bush and his son George W. Bush "are oilmen belonging to the same group" of Texas oligarchs who whacked Kennedy. No mention is made of the Warren Commission and the House Select Committee on Assassinations which investigated the killing in 1964 and 1977-78."

Let's just say I agree with Pravda. I do think H.L. Hunt and Lyndon Johnson played big roles in the JFK assassination. It is very possible that George Herbert Walker Bush played a big role as well. The best recaps of GHW Bush's possible role in the JFK assassination are in Family of Secrets by Russ Baker and the essay "Did the Bushes help to kill JFK" by Wim Dankbaar over at JFKMurdersolved.

An interesting note: George W. Bush, the son of GHW Bush, appointed Ray Lee Hunt (the son of oil baron H.L. Hunt - a key supporter of Lyndon Johnson) to the plum position of a member of the President's Foreign Intelligence Advisory Board. In my opinion, the fathers of GWB and Ray Lee Hunt were both key players in the JFK assassination. CIA George Herbert Walker Bush was also friends with Lyndon Johnson.

In a nutshell, I think that Soviet propaganda organs such as Pravda have been a much more reliable source for accurate information on the JFK assassination than the American media or the Kennedy family (publicly).

 

Dale Meyers blogpost from 2007:

Pravda Says Truth About Kennedy Assassination Will Never Be Unveiled

by DALE K. MYERS

Some things never change. Take the article, "Truth about John Kennedy’s assassination will never be unveiled," published in today's issue of Pravda, Moscow's newspaper of record.

According to the front page story, "John Kennedy died because he was in opposition to a group of Texan oligarchs. But Americans prefer not to speak much about the version as it is very much compromising for George W. Bush."

According to Pravda, the Kennedy assassination remains unsolved although they later declare, "Many experts on America believe that the conspiracy in Dallas was organized by a group of billionaires from Texas with Harold Hunt at head. The man was considered the world’s richest man of that time. The Texas businessman took an active part in the political life of America; he nominated Texas senator Lyndon Johnson for presidential election in 1960. The first attempt to promote Johnson was a failure, but Hunt finished the game in Dallas as a result of which Kennedy was killed and his candidate came to the White House."

Kennedy, by Pravda's account, was in opposition to the group of Texas oligarchs seeking governmental positions. Hence, billionaires with Hunt at head decided to conspire against Kennedy.

Pravda goes on to claim that "it is perfectly clear that America’s tough security measures would not make it possible for any stranger to approach Oswald who was considered the killer of President Kennedy and even kill him. But within two years after Oswald’s death sixty-two people more who could have testified upon the Kennedy killing died under not clear circumstances. The taxi driver who took Oswald home from the book stack died in a week after that day. [Editor's note: Actually, Whaley died in December, 1965, two years after the assassination, in a not so mysterious manner - he was killed when an 83 year-old man in an oncoming vehicle crossed the center line and crashed into Whaley's car, killing himself and Whaley.] Later, more fatal instances with people who knew something about the crime followed."

Why is this all so compromising for President Bush? According to Pravda, the inertness in the investigation of the crime is due to the fact that both George H.W. Bush and his son George W. Bush "are oilmen belonging to the same group" of Texas oligarchs who whacked Kennedy. No mention is made of the Warren Commission and the House Select Committee on Assassinations which investigated the killing in 1964 and 1977-78.

The source for most of this hokum is Valentin Zorin, a political correspondent for Soviet TV and radio and professor of the Institute for the USA and Canada Studies, and yes, the son of Valerian Alexandrovich Zorin (1902-1986), the Soviet diplomat and statesman, who as Soviet ambassador to the United Nations got into the famous confrontation with Adlai Stevenson on October 25, 1962, during the Cuban Missile Crisis. Zorin denied that the Soviets had placed offensive ballistic missiles in Cuba and refused to answer Stevenson's direct question about them resulting in Stevenson's famous retort, "I am prepared to wait for my answer until hell freezes over, if that's your decision. And I'm also prepared to present the evidence in this room." Stevenson then showed the world U2 recon photographs that proved that the Soviets had placed and were placing intercontinental ballistic missiles in Cuba.

The latest Pravda report about who was behind the Kennedy assassination is nothing new, of course. TASS, the official Soviet press agency, announced on November 23, 1963, at a time when the Dallas police investigation into the crime had barely begun, that Kennedy was killed by "extreme rightwing elements" in the United States. So much for ascertaining any facts before drawing a conclusion.

Obviously, it is no surprise that Moscow is beating the same drum forty-four years later. Who needs facts when you've got a good yarn to tell?

 

Russian Diplomat Valentin Zorin for years implicated H.L. Hunt in the JFK assassination and pointed out that H.L. Hunt was a close ally of both Lyndon Johnson and J. Edgar Hoover

 

Who and why killed the Kennedy brothers: exclusive interview with Valentin Zorin

https://eadaily.com/en/news/2016/04/29/who-and-why-killed-the-kennedy-brothers-exclusive-interview-with-valentin-zorin

Valentin S. Zorin, a legendary Soviet and Russian journalist and TV presenter, historian specializing in American studies, political analyst, died aged 90, on April 27 in Moscow. He was known to be the one from whom most Soviet people learned about the United States. Zorin did not demonize the USA, but presented it real, with all its benefits and implications. Zorin had many American friends, among them was Henry Kissinger, the U.S. Secretary of State under Richard Nixon. One could hardly suspect Kissinger of having sympathy for the strategic rival of the United States, which did not hold him from having friendly relations with such bright representatives of that strategic rival as Soviet journalist Valentin Zorin was. It was friendship “against all odds,” considering the way Zorin presented the United States and the way Kissinger perceived the Soviet Union. Although Zorin spent his career years mostly in the United States, he perceived very painfully the collapse of the USSR, attack on the Supreme Council in October of 1993, the destructive market reforms of 1990s, which Zorin called “cannibalistic.” Experiencing financial difficulties in 1990s, the prominent Soviet journalist and Americanist nevertheless rejected a favorable offer by oligarch Vladimir Gusinsky.

Zorin said he valued the friendship with John and Robert Kennedy, one of the most prominent brothers in the United States. Short before his death, the prominent Americanist told EADaily’s correspondent about the Kennedy brothers and his friendship with them. EADaily’s editorial board planned to publish this interview for a significant date, but it has turned out to be our tribute to the memory of the prominent journalist and citizen of Russia.

Mr. Zorin, you are an acknowledged Americanist and international journalist. Few people know, however, that you were friends with the 35th president of the United States John Fitzgerald Kennedy and his brother Robert. How did you make friends with the persons who became symbols of the 20th century?

Our first meeting with John Kennedy was in 1961, during the U.S. president’s meeting with Nikita Khrushchev in Vienna. I was in the group of journalists that accompanied the Soviet leader then. I got an opportunity to meet with Kennedy thanks to his spokesperson Pierre Salinger, who was also a good friend of the American president. By some quirk of fate, the friend of the U.S. president appeared to be an old friend of mine. I could not but snag the opportunity and persuade my friend to organize a meeting with his chief. He did it: during a break, Salinger invited Kennedy to the forecourt of U.S. Embassy building in Austria and I interviewed the president there.

I am not going to tell you what I talked about with the U.S. leader then, as I wrote about that interview in my book “The Unknown about Known.” Since then, I managed to meet with Kennedy informally too.

Here is an interesting fact: Kennedy appointed his friend Salinger as the White House press secretary, which was a gross violation of traditions, like the fact that the Minister of Justice was his brother Robert. Never before and never after has any of the U.S. presidents afforded anything of the kind. Meantime, Kennedy loved breaking traditions. I had good relations with Robert Kennedy too.

As a friend of John Kennedy, I can say that president was an amazing man, a man of great political mind, prompt reaction and incredible willpower. The Caribbean nuclear crisis has demonstrated that to the world, though many historians and politicians do not remember it, unfortunately.

Looking back on those days, one can see that not only the USSR and the U.S., but also the entire world was on the brink of a nuclear disaster. It may sound unpleasant to many, but the one behind that nuclear crisis was not John Kennedy. It was Secretary General of the CPSU Central Committee Nikita Khrushchev who led the world on the verge of annihilation by deploying nuclear missiles in Cuba and holding the Soviet pistol to the head of U.S. I think it was, to put it mildly, a hasty step by him. The U.S. leadership responded toughly and the situation in the world was extremely explosive. All that might spark a World War III.

The role of the U.S. president and his brother Robert Kennedy in preventing that nuclear tragedy able to destroy everything alive on the Earth was tremendous. Two persons made a huge contribution to resolving that conflict through contacts of Kennedy and Khrushchev. The first was the president’s brother Robert Kennedy and the second was our diplomat Anatoly Fyodorovich Dobrynin, who had been the Soviet ambassador to the United States for two decades, one of the most prominent diplomats in the history of the USSR.

During the Caribbean crisis, Dobrynin and Robert Kennedy were talking night and day. They were waging shuttle diplomacy they had invented. After their talks, Dobrynin was visiting the Soviet Embassy in Washington and sending to Moscow cipher messages about the process of the talks with the American side. Robert was informing his brother in the White House of the talks with the Soviet ambassador. At that moment, it was a very important hot line between the leaders of the Soviet Union and the United States and it resolved the Caribbean crisis.  As for Kennedy, he made the first steps to what the leaders of the USSR and U.S. later called reduction of tensions in the relations. Kennedy learned an important lesson from the Caribbean crisis: as long as there is threat of nuclear war, the world, everything alive can be destroyed in few seconds.

Those who are now pulling military bases with nuclear weapons close to the borders of Russia prefer not to remember the story about the most popular U.S. President John Kennedy who removed the U.S. military base from the territory of a NATO country on the border with our country.

What do you mean?

I am speaking about dismantling of the U.S. Incirlik air base in Turkey. U.S. rockets with nuclear warheads could reach Baku within eight minutes from Incirlik. The base was liquidated after the Soviet rockets were removed from Cuba under the arrangements to resolve the Caribbean crisis. Yet, Cuban leader Fidel Castro has not yet forgiven Khrushchev for liquidation of the Soviet “Nuclear Sword” from Cuba. And maybe he is right. Castro did not ask the USSR or personally Khrushchev to deploy nuclear weapons in Cuba and did not ask for dismantling anything either. Cuba was placed before an accomplished fact when our rockets were deployed there and then again when the weapons were withdrawn. Castro was dissatisfied that Moscow just used Cuba. After the relations of Moscow and Havana chilled, Khrushchev had to send Anastas Mikoyan to normalize the relations with Cuba.

It was an important episode in the history of U.S., USSR and the world, in general, as Washington dismantled its military base deployed maximum close to the border of the present-day Russia. That fact is still hushed up in the American press.

Why is it hushed up? Is it shame for the U.S. military to admit that the most popular U.S. president refuse to “expand NATO into the east” following the talks with the USSR on the Caribbean crisis?

Sure, but it is not the only reason. Washington that is arrogantly teaching democracy to our country must remember one very important thing. Assassination of President Kennedy and his brother, Secretary Robert Kennedy, which was later called as the Crime of Century, has not been exposed yet. The U.S. authorities do not even take any measures to expose that crime.

Sirhan Bishara Sirhan– the officially convicted assassin of Robert Kennedy – is still alive in a Los Angeles jail. Bishara could tell something about Robert Kennedy’s assassination that happened just outside the White House building. Then, in 1968, the presidential campaign was nearing completion in U.S. and it was evident that Robert Kennedy would win the election. After Robert was killed, everyone understood that his assassination was directly connected with the violent death of his brother John. As an Americanist, I share the views that the plot in Dallas was organized by a group of the Texas billionaires with Harold Hunt at head.

In the Soviet period, general readers were focusing on American studies. Now, mass information users prefer not to spare themselves on learning the political and economic life of the United States. For many of them it is enough to know that U.S. is Russia’s adversary. Please, remind our readers who was Harold Hunt and how he could be behind the death of the Kennedy brothers.

In 1968, Harold Hunt was known to be the richest man in the world. That Texas-based businessman was very active in politics. Thanks to him, Lyndon Johnson, a senator from Texas, succeeded Kennedy as president. Hunt lobbied Johnson for the president’s post yet in 1960. However, at the congress of the U.S. Democratic Party, Hunt’s plans failed, as the Congress supported John Kennedy’s nomination for the president’s post. Yet, the voting of the Democrats for Kennedy was Hunt’s deal, under which Kennedy was nominated as president, but Lyndon Johnson, Hunt’s ‘creature’, was to be elected as vice president.

As for the “Texas group,” one of the largest financial and industrial groups in America, its links to John Kennedy’s assassination and the strange idleness of the U.S. authorities when it comes to investigation in the murder of the 35-year-old president, I would like to recall something. George Bush-senior and George Bush -junior were petroleum producers from Texas, bright representatives of the local financial and industrial group. Harold Hunt is from the same environment. Furthermore, George Bush-senior created his wealth with the help of Hunt. Although Hunt passed away yet long ago, the group of the oil producers from Texas is still the largest in the U.S. policy and business. In this light, the U.S. authorities and the Bush Family will not take any steps that may damage the authority of the Texas oil manufacturers, even post factum. The possibilities that may pour light on the shots in Dallas are not used. As the years go by, not only witnesses but also evidences fade away.

 

Засели одинокую планетI inquired into the murders of the Kennedy brothers. I managed to leave for the United States immediately after John Kennedy was assassinated. Three days after Robert Kennedy’s death, I was in Los Angeles where he was murdered. I inquired into the assassination of the president’s brother who was due to take that high post in the country.

How was that Texas billionaire connected to those “murders of the century”?

Speaking of the murder in Dallas, any reasonable man will understand the following factors. It was simply unthinkable to let to Lee Harvey Oswald – the man who was considered John Kennedy’s murderer - an outsider, who suddenly killed Oswald. In U.S., there is a strict system of witness protection. The U.S. president’s assassination suspect is a witness whom the government protects as carefully as it would protect the president. It is simply unbelievable that the security service could incidentally let to Oswald’s room anyone who could fatally shot him. After Lee Harvey Oswald’s death, sixty-two important witnesses had passed away within two years under strange circumstances. People who could tell much about John Kennedy’s murder die suddenly. By the way, the taxi driver who took Oswald from the Texas Book Depository to home died a week after John Kennedy’s assassination.

In Los Angeles where Robert Kennedy was killed, they bungled the matter. I can state this for sure, as I was present at the news conference in hospital where Robert passed away. At that news conference, I and many other journalists were showed an image from the police materials where one could see powder burns on the back of Robert’s neck. Note: the burns were on the back of the neck, meantime it was widely accepted that Sirhan Bishara shot Robert standing in front of him. The burns I was shown on the image in Los Angeles could be caused if the murderer shot Robert pointblank from behind. That image from the Police materials - an essential document in the murder case - had been demonstrated to the press within three days, and then it disappeared under mysterious circumstances. Therefore, I can suppose that Robert’s bodyguard who stood behind him shot him pointblank from behind. However, Sirhan Bishara, a Palestinian man who came out of nowhere, was eventually indicted for president’s murder. It becomes apparent why Bishara has made no signs during all the 48 years since Robert’s murder, though he is still alive and is serving a life sentence.

 

Who could hire a killer-bodyguard for Robert Kennedy?

Such a bodyguard could occur in Robert Kennedy’s Security Guard due to the deadly feud between him and Edgar Hoover, the long-standing director of FBI, who founded FBI and survived many presidents on that post. Before the death of the Kennedy brothers, Hoover was a very powerful, more precisely, the most powerful official in the United States. As Minister of Justice, Prosecutor General of the United States and then a presidential nominee, Robert Kennedy did his utmost to remove Hoover from his post. Therefore, the severe feud between Hoover and Robert Kennedy could result in hiring that mysterious bodyguard who shot Robert dead in Los Angeles in 1968.

Nevertheless, I cannot say if Hoover and Harold Hunt were friends or financial partners. However, I know that Edgar Hoover was indirectly involved in the Dallas tragedy. John Kennedy’s Security Guard was not good. Prior to Kennedy’s fatal trip to Dallas, FBI was receiving alarms through various reliable channels that the president’s life was in danger. As for Robert’s death. I have already said, one of his bodyguards apparently shot him dead. Robert’s death was necessary to the murderers of his brother John. Robert had never concealed his plans to find those behind the president’s assassination. In all his pre-election speeches, Robert said he would dig out his brother’s assassination plot and it would be the first thing he would do if elected. Robert told me about the Texas traces of John’s murder, as I was in very good relations with Robert and I was a friend of his brother. Making accusations against powerful Texas businessmen would affect his presidential campaign. That is why, he chose a foreign journalist – me – as a media mouthpiece. He informed me about the details of his brother’s murder and hoped that all those facts would be published in the Soviet press with my help.

Actually, I had been digging out the Texas traces of the president’s murder within several years after Robert Kennedy pointed me at them prior to his presidential campaign in 1968 that ended so tragically for him. In the same way, in 1984, Prime Minister of India Indira Gandhi was shot dead by her bodyguard. One of Indira’s bodyguards, who was a Sikh, confessed that he shot her from behind.

 

How did the Kennedy brothers work with each other? Sometimes, politics affects the relationships of even most devoted people.

Robert was not just the brother of a prominent person and president of the United States. He was a very powerful and independent political figure, though in a single team with John. At the same time, they used to hold heated debates of many issues.

However, they had no disagreements concerning the U.S. policy towards the Soviet Union. Both them were aware of the danger of nuclear conflict. Robert like his brother John Kennedy was bewildered to face a threat of the World War III, a probable nuclear war that will destroy everything alive on the Earth. The ideas of disarmament policy were not strange to Robert either. The current head of the Kennedy clan, Edward – the youngest of the Kennedy brothers, shared those views too.

All the talks in our and U.S. media that the Kennedy brothers were brought to politics by their wealthy father were nothing but yellow press. Perhaps, it was easier for the brothers to hold their election campaigns having such father as billionaire Joseph Kennedy, but John and Robert were outstanding individuals, which was a crucial factor in their careers. To be substantive, I would like to tell an amusing episode from John Kennedy’s election campaign that I observed.

During the presidential debates between John Kennedy and Richard Nixon in 1960, I was the resident correspondent of the USSR State Television and Radio in U.S. Walter Cronkite, the veteran television news anchorman, a board member of the influential Time magazine, invited me to his TV team. After the election campaign and after victory of John Kennedy, Cronkite invited me to his office and began lecturing me severely. Cronkite had the right to do it; he was old enough to be my father. He told me: “Valentin, I closely followed your reports to Moscow about the election campaign. You told the Soviet TV viewers that John Kennedy won, because his presidential platform was liberal, while the one of Nixon was conservative. This means that you have not understood how presidents are elected in the United States. If you really think that a U.S. voter reads the election platforms of the presidential candidates, you are mistaken.” In Cronkite’s words, everything was much easier. The campaign of 1960 was the first televised campaign. “The citizens of the United States watched two candidates, two persons: the handsome rhetorician John Kennedy and the always unshaven, faltering Richard Nixon,” Cronkite told me. “If you take into account that more than half of the American voters are women, it will be clear why Kennedy won the elections.”

I knew that Walter Cronkite was kidding. That wide old man was right saying that U.S. voters do not read the election programs of candidates. However, Cronkite knew that Kennedy won thanks to his foreign policy views that were new for his country, for the ideas he voiced then, at the height of the Cold War. Most of the voters that supported him (among them there were many women) did it not because of his handsome look, but because of his serious proposals on the foreign and domestic policy of the United States.

Which of Kennedy’s proposals gained the attention of voters?

John Kennedy challenged not only the U.S. military-industrial system that pursued profits from the “crusade against USSR.” Kennedy challenged the oligarchic group in Texas that claimed power in the United States then. That is way Hunt and other billionaires in Texas plotted his assassination and that is why many of my U.S. colleagues avoid speaking about that fact now. I know for sure that six months before the Dallas tragedy, Kennedy initiated a bill in the Senate that looked to increase taxes on oil recovery in America.

 In U.S. where the Bush clan in Texas is still very influential, it is not favorable for anyone to remember that there was a president who tried to take in hand the oil oligarchs in Texas. During one of my trips to the United States, I reminded my younger American colleagues about that fact. They said it was impossible. When I recommended them to look into the Senate archives, they agreed with me saying that there was really such document in the Senate. Kennedy did not have time to bring that bill into force. They did not give him a chance to do it. Analogy is a dangerous thing in history, but I will say this: the leader of any country acts in the right way when he removes oligarchs from power and does not give them too much influence on power.

Moderating oligarchs Kennedy created barrier to the U.S. military, as he was against the “crusade against the USSR.” He did not conceal it and even built his presidential campaign on it. Amid the Cold War hysteria and fear of nuclear war, he was more preferable candidate than the then tough Nixon. After his defeat in 1960, Richard Nixon became much more moderate. John became an etalon for many U.S. pragmatic politicians. Not so long ago, the U.S. media published the list of the most prominent presidents of the United States based on the public opinion polls. John Kennedy was ranked the third after George Washington and Abraham Lincoln. Such a high respect for him by Americans is understandable.

After so many years since the Dallas tragedy, no president has had such high confidence rating as John Kennedy had. Some presidents simply spent their terms in their offices and left, without leaving their mark in history.

John did not avoid answering for his not popular decisions and miscalculations before the people. For instance, at the beginning of the Caribbean crisis, he did not lay the responsibility on Khrushchev or his team. He said that only one person was guilty of that situation – U.S. President JFK. Yet, I think he could blame CIA for improper data, as George Bush did after invading Iraq, when CIA did not find any traces of nuclear weapons there. George Bush laid the responsibility for the situation on the intelligence, launching dismissals at CIA and other security services.

There was another case. Once CIA suggested Kennedy to storm ashore the Bay of Pigs. CIA assured that landing of Cuban exiles there would make Fidel Castro shot himself in his room, as the people of Cuba allegedly hated him and waited Americans as their liberators. The military suggested Kennedy to provide the landing force of migrants a marine infantry unit and a squadron of the Air Force. Kennedy said he would never do it, as the people of Cuba, not the U.S. sea soldiers must decide the fate of their country.

Ray Lee Hunt, the son of H.L. Hunt is big time player in business, politics, intelligence

In my opinion H.L. Hunt organized the JFK assassination. Ray Lee Hunt was age 20 at the time and a student at SMU. Perhaps he has figured it out by now. He is close personal friends with GHW Bush and George W. Bush

What about Ray Lee Hunt, the son of H.L. Hunt? Ever wonder why the USA is involved in Yemen? Well, one reason might be is because Ray Lee Hunt has a multi-billion oil find there.

Check out the curriculum vitae of Ray Lee Hunt. It sure hits on all the hot buttons: oil industry executive, former member of the Dallas Fed, appointee by George W. Bush to the very plum position on the President's Foreign Advisory Intelligence Board.

Think he ever got briefed on the "intelligence" coming out of Yemen and the rest of the Middle East? That is just a simple question for you to figure out.

I do think that Ray Lee Hunt's dad, H.L. Hunt, was ABSOLUTELY one of the key players of the JFK assassination. I am not accusing Ray Lee Hunt of that, but I bet he has figured it out by now. In 1963, Ray Lee Hunt was a 20 year old student at SMU in Dallas.

Ray Lee Hunt is very tied into the Bush family. I do think CIA George Herbert Walker Bush was one of the CIA planners of the JFK assassination. GHW Bush sure is invested in the cover up. Of course Ray Lee Hunt is close personal friends with GHW Bush #41 and George W. Bush #43.

[By the way, one of my ancestors helped to found SMU a long time ago.]

H.L. Hunt says he was a great admirer of John Kennedy! (1970)

 

H.L. Hunt was one of the key players who murdered JFK. He is lying just LBJ was lying about Castro having killed Kennedy.

H.L. Hunt says he was a great admirer of JFK (1970) - a transparent lie:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mrlIwMRTkA4&feature=related

Texas in the Morning by Madeleine Duncan Brown:

"We may have lost a battle but we are going to win a war.” H.L. Hunt to Madeleine Brown, LBJ’s girlfriend, upon Lyndon Johnson losing the Democratic nomination to John Kennedy in 1960.

H.L. Hunt: “How long are we going to let this go on? Are we goin’ to have to shoot those mafia bastards to get them out of office?” [Texas in the Morning, p. 163] 

 

Madeleine Brown on H.L. Hunt and the JFK assassination.

 

Here's an excerpt from a 2006 article by Paul Joseph Watson:

Brown said that the plan to kill JFK had its origins in the 1960 Democratic Convention, at which John F. Kennedy was elected as presidential candidate with Johnson as his running mate, where H.L. Hunt, an American oil tycoon, and Lyndon Johnson hatched the assassination plot.

"When they met in California, Joe Kennedy, John Kennedy's father, and H.L. Hunt met met three days prior to the election - they finally cut a deal according to John Currington (an aide to H.L. Hunt) and H.L. finally agreed that Lyndon would go as the vice president....this came from the horse's mouth way back in 1960 - when H.L. came back to Dallas I was walking....with him....and he made the remark, 'we may have lost a battle but we're going to win a war,' and then the day of the assassination he said 'well, we won the war'," said Brown.

Brown said that in the immediate aftermath of the convention Hunt and Johnson mapped out a strategy to kill Kennedy.

"It was a total political crime and H.L. Hunt really controlled what actually happened to John Kennedy - he and Lyndon Johnson," said Brown.

"They had this lodge....outside of Dallas and they would meet there....he chose different people to do certain things for him and I'm sure it went on about two years prior to the assassination of John Kennedy."

Harvey “Bum” Bright, Edgar R. Crissy and Nelson Lamar Hunt (a son of LBJ insider H.L. Hunt) paid for the anti-Kennedy advertisement that ran in the Dallas Morning News on the day of the JFK assassination. Bum Bright later bought the Dallas Cowboys from the Murchison family, who also hated the Kennedys.

http://spartacus-educational.com/JFKbrightH.htm

JOHN SIMKIN:

In a speech made on 17th January, 1963, President Kennedy suggested that he intended to bring an end to the depletion allowance. As he pointed out: "no one industry should be permitted to obtain an undue tax advantage over all others." It was estimated that Bright and his friends might lose around $300 million a year if the oil depletion allowance was removed.

Bright, along with Edgar R. Crissey and Nelson Lamar Hunt, helped to pay for the full-page, black-bordered anti-Kennedy advertisement that ran in the Dallas Morning News on the day that John F. Kennedy was assassinated. The advert, placed by Bernard Weissman, attacked Kennedy's foreign policy as being anti-American and communistic. This included the claim that Gus Hall, "head of the U.S. Communist Party praised almost every one of your policies and announced that the party will endorse and support your re-election in 1964". It also attacked Kennedy's domestic policies. Another passage asked why Robert Kennedy had been allowed "to go soft on Communists, fellow-travelers, and ultra-leftists in America."

Here is that advertisement: http://www.orwelltoday.com/jfkadhate.jpg

Two Months before his death in January, 1973 Lyndon Johnson invited his close friend and arch segregationist Sen. Jim Eastland (D-MS) and Oil men H.L. Hunt and D.A. Biglane (from Mississippi) to the LBJ Ranch for a Weekend of Hunting. A collection of Top JFK (and MLK)-haters.

QUOTE

On a personal level, no president was closer to Eastland than Lyndon Johnson. Even more than Eastland, LBJ relished the behind-the-scenes approach to lawmaking….

Still, Eastland believed Johnson was the shrewdest politico he ever encountered, and the two remained friendly. One of the few invitations the thirty-sixth president extended in the last two months of his life was to Eastland and oilmen D.A. Biglane and H.L. Hunt to visit his ranch for a weekend of hunting.

In the immediate aftermath of the Kennedy assassination, Eastland and Johnson was in close contact. The Judiciary Committee was one of several panels one would assume might hold hearings on the killings of the late president and his likely assassin, Lee Harvey Oswald. Several senators had gone to Eastland and encouraged just that course. For his part, Eastland used the occasion to introduce legislation making the assassination of a president a federal crime. Johnson feared the bill might call up a significant states’ rights issue, but he told Eastland six days after assuming the office that he was certain that too many investigations would open up a Pandora’s box replete with “very explosive” leaks that might harm America’s national security. Eastland concurred and agreed to defer action until Johnson go back to him about the superpanel he would create to probe the matter. The next evening, the new president phoned Eastland, read him the text of his announcement that he would be forming a commission chaired by Chief Justice Warren, and explained why he chose each member. Eastland listened intently until Johnson announced who would be in charge, then interjected that he would have prefered the selection of Associate Justice John Harlan to Warren. There, Johnson butted in to say he had to give the panel credibility by putting the chief justice in charge rather than a mere associate justice. Eastland understood and acquiesced without complaint to the new president’s near command that he protect his “flank over there in the Senate.”

In 1975, Bunker and Herbert were acquitted of federal wire-tapping charges after they had put private detectives on the trails of Hunt employees they suspected of embezzlement. Their defense was based on the claim that they did not know wire-tapping was illegal.

NYT QUOTE

A wealthy Mississippi plantation owner, Senator Eastland was best known nationally as a symbol of Southern resistence to racial desegregation in most of his years in the Senate.

Indeed, the major civil rights bills enacted by Congress, principally in the 1960's, became law only by various maneuvers that bypassed the Senate Judiciary Committee, which he ruled with an iron hand before his retirement from Congress in 1978.

UNQUOTE

NYT QUOTE

In 1978, shortly before announcing his retirement, he met with Aaron E. Henry, head of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in Mississippi, to discuss the possibility of black support in the event he sought re-election. Later Bid for Black Support

Mr. Henry said later that he had told the 73-year-old Senator: ''Your chances of getting support in the black community are poor at best. You have a master-servant philosophy with regard to blacks.''

At that point, Mr. Henry said, ''The old man just burst into tears.''

Not long afterward, Mr. Eastland announced his retirement and, at the end of that Congressional term, returned to his 5,800-acre Delta cotton plantation on the outskirts of the little town of Doddsville in Sunflower County.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Arch Segregationist Sen. James Eastland (D-MS) had a close relationship with Lyndon Johnson and FBI director J. Edgar Hoover. Not only that Eastland was a frequent visitor to the LBJ Ranch following LBJ’s retirement from the presidency!

.1) Wiki - Eastland was often at odds with Johnson's policy on civil rights, but they retained a close friendship based on long years together in the Senate. Johnson often sought Eastland's support and guidance on other issues, such as the nomination of Abe Fortas in 1968 as Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. The Solid South opposed him.[53] In the 1950s, Johnson was one of three Senators from the South who did not sign the Southern Manifesto of resistance to Brown v. Board of Education, but Eastland and most Southern Senators did, vowing resistance to school integration.

.2) Wiki - Eastland was a staunch supporter of FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover, and shared intelligence with the FBI, including leaks from the State Department. An investigation initiated by Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy and executed by former FBI agent Walter Sheridan traced some of the unauthorized disclosures to Otto Otepka of the State Department Office of Security.[63]

Hoover received intelligence that Eastland was among members of Congress who had received money and favors from Rafael Trujillo, dictator of the Dominican Republic. Eastland had regularly defended him from the Senate floor. Hoover declined to pursue Eastland on corruption charges.[

John Connally, a longtime friend of LBJ, wrote in his autobiography In History’s Shadow that people immediately suspected both Lyndon Johnson and H.L. Hunt in the JFK assassination.

QUOTE

        One of the theories [on who murdered JFK] that received early circulation paired Lyndon Johnson and H.L. Hunt, the eccentric, right-wing Dallas oil billionaire. They were supported by the oil cartel, and their objective was to get rid of John Kennedy so the Vice President could succeed to the nation’s highest office. I don’t believe Johnson had slept a night in the White House when this one was out in the open.

Rosemary James was an anti-Jim Garrison reporter in New Orleans and she reports that at one time Jim Garrison suspected H.L. Hunt in the JFK assassination

“Every time press interest in the case would start to want, he would propound a new theory. One week it would be 14 Cubans shooting from storm drains. The next week, it would be H.L. Hunt and the far right in Dallas. This was no Robin Hood – no Untouchable either.”

ByTLR on August 18, 2013

Format: Hardcover

Eddowes was a British researcher. This book (also published as Khrushchev Killed Kennedy) was financed by Texas oilman H.L. Hunt. Eddowes states flatly that Khrushchev "ordered his assassination through the Soviet Secret Police (MVD)...the real Lee Harvey Oswald never returned to the United States but disappeared shortly after his arrival in the Soviet Union in 1959...the man who assassination Kennedy in 1963 was a member of Department 13, the sabotage and assassination squad of the Soviet State Security Service (KGB), and in 1962 had entered the United States in the guise of Oswald...the Soviets intended that after the assassination the imposture would be discovered by the United States authorities...a confusing chain of evidence had been created placing responsibility for the assassination on the Cubans or the Soviets, in that order..because the assassin failed the escape, before 9pm on the day of the assassination, the authorities suspected that the assassin was a Soviet imposter...their suspicions were confirmed...to avoid the possibility of World War III, it was at once decided that all evidence of imposture and Soviet conspiracy be withheld from the world..."

Eddowes notes the usual discrepancies in records of Oswald's appearances that other researchers have written about. He subscribes to the official scenario of Oswald as the lone gunman. He attributes the backward-movement of JFK's head to "an immense neuromuscular spasm." He calls the Carcano "the perfect weapon for the task...having less recoil than the average military rifle." He believes that the backyard photos are fakes, but does not explain very clearly why they were created.

Blaming the Soviets (along with Castro) appears to have been one of the goals of the real plotters, but the idea that Khrushchev would want JFK dead is just absurd. Today we have the private letters between Kennedy and Khrushchev showing that both men were working toward the goal of ending the arms race and the Cold War.

Thomas Buchanan, the author of one of the earliest books on the JFK assassination, Who Killed Kennedy? (May, 1964) Suspected H.L. Hunt in the JFK assassination.

H.L. Hunt, of course, was a close associate of both Lyndon Johnson and J. Edgar Hoover.

JOHN SIMKIN post on 1-29-2008

Daniel met Fidel Castro on 19th November, 1963. Daniel later described Castro as listening with "devouring and passionate interest". He made Daniel repeat three times Kennedy's indictment of Fulgencio Batista. Castro told Daniel that Kennedy could become "the greatest president of the United States, the leader who may at last understand that there can be coexistence between capitalists and socialists, even in the Americas."

Daniel was with Castro when news arrived that John F. Kennedy had been assassinated Castro turned to Daniel and said:"This is an end to your mission of peace. Everything is changed." Later Castro commented: "Now they will have to find the assassin quickly, but very quickly, otherwise, you watch and see, I know them, they will try to put the blame on us for this thing."

Castro went on to discuss the use of assassination as a political weapon. In the late 1950s e had rejected the idea of assassinating Fulgencio Batista. "I have always been violently opposed to such methods. First of all from the viewpoint of political self-interest, because so far as Cuba is concerned, if Batista had been killed he would have been replaced by some military figure who would have tried to make the revolutionists pay for the martyrdom of the dictator. But I was also opposed to it on personal grounds; assassination is repellent to me."

With the help of Jean Daniel, Thomas G. Buchanan, who also worked for L’ Express, published his book, Who Killed Kennedy?, in May 1964. Buchanan appears to have been the first writer to suggest that Lyndon B. Johnson and "Texas oil interests" were responsible for Kennedy's death. Buchanan argues that the assassination was funded by a Texas oilman. He does not name him but later it emerged he was referring to Haroldson L. Hunt.

 

 

 

 

 

Dr. Albert E. Burke, former educational TV consultant for NBC on Station KCOP (Glendale, CA) after the JFK assassination. Burke talked about:

“the experience I had in the Dallas home of an American whose hate for this country’s leaders, and the way our institutions worked, was the most vicious, venomous and dangerous I have known in my life …. It was a very special performance by a pillar of the American community, who influences things in his community… He said things had reached the point where there seemed to be no way left to get those traitors out of our government except by shooting them out … My host assured me - when I objected to his remarks - that he believed as he did because he was an anti-Communist.”

[Thomas C. Buchanan, Who Killed Kennedy, p. 187]

            So who is Dr. Burke refering to? A good guess would be H.L. Hunt.

I have listened to communists and other groups that can only be called enemies, accuse us of the worst intentions, the most inhuman ways of doing things, as the most dangerous people on earth, to be stopped and destroyed at all costs... But nothing I have heard in or from those places around us compared with the experience I had in the Dallas home of an American, whose hate for this country's leaders, and the way our institutions worked, was the most vicious, venomous and dangerous I have known in my life. No communist ever heard, no enemy of this nation has ever done a better job of degrading or belittling this country. That American was one of this nation's richest and most powerful men!

It was a very special performance by a pillar of the American community, who influences things in his community. It was a very special performance because in that living room during his performance - in which he said things had reached the point where there seemed to be 'no way left to get those traitors out of our government except by shooting them out' during that performance, there were four teenagers in that room to be influenced. His views were shared on November 22, 1963.

Interestingly, the man accused of that crime claimed to be a Marxist, a communist. But my host assured me - when I objected to his remarks - that he believed as he did because he was anti-communist!

What happened in that home in Dallas, of one of America's richest and most powerful men, shashed that goal of America as a united country for the four teenagers in on that conversation that night.

John Kennedy in late 1963 was ready to nuke the oil depreciation allowance

Marquis W. Childs, Washington Calling (10th October, 1963)

To a friend and long-time associate who called on him the other day President Kennedy expressed considerable bitterness on the subject of top-bracket taxpayers who use tax exemptions to spread propaganda of the extreme right. The President talked about two men, each of whom is often referred to as "the richest man in the world". One was J. Paul Getty, an oilman who spends most of his time in England. The second was the Dallas, Texas, oilman H. L. Hunt. Both are billionaires. Both, according to the President, paid small amounts in federal income tax last year. These men, the President said, use various forms of tax exemption and special tax allowances to subsidize the ultra right on television, radio and in print.

There is no doubt that the right-wing is heavily subsidized. On radio and television stations across the nation free taped programs are run daily, assailing the United Nations, attacking the graduated income tax, foreign aid, social security and the other favorite hates of the extreme right. One of the biggest tax benefits oilmen enjoy is the 27.5 per cent depletion allowance. In his January tax message, the President proposed a sharp reduction in this benefit, which has been extended to cover a long list of minerals. The tax bill passed by the House made only a minor change, however. The right-wing is prepared to go all out to defeat Kennedy in 1964.

Jim Garrison in a statement of Sept. 21, 1967 claimed that the JFK assassination had been ordered and paid for by a cabal of Oil Millionaires - according to Joachim Joesten

Joachim Joesten, How Kennedy Was Killed (1968)

When District Attorney Garrison, in his statement of September 21, 1967, made the startling disclosure that the assassination of President Kennedy had been ordered and paid for by a handful of oil-rich psychotic millionaires, he didn't name any names. But I'm quite sure that all the good people of Dallas, if any of them were privileged to hear the news, instantly thought of their fellow-resident Haroldson Lafayette Hunt, the boss of the immensely rich Hunt Oil Company of Dallas.

Hunt is not only by far the richest of all the Texas oil millionaires but he is also, and more importantly, the one with the most pronounced and most vicious spleen. And, above all, the one who hated Kennedy most.

It so happens that H. L. Hunt is also a longtime friend, admirer and financial 'angel' of the most prominent Texas politician of our time, Lyndon B. Johnson, the man who was destined to become President of the United States automatically the moment Kennedy died. Perhaps this is the reason why Garrison preferred not to be too specific.

Rachel Rendish Facebook message to me on 10-23-2018. She had just told me that both Marina Oswald and Sondra Mamontov, both of whom she was friends with, told her that she (Marina Oswald) had taken money from H.L. Hunt after the JFK assassination.

 

Ok Robert.. Hey it is 10pm.. I am fried.. I will get with you tomorrow but just incase.... Sondra Mamontov told me that Marina was given alot of money from differnt sources after the assassination. HL Hunt was one of those sources.. She would have told me this after the assassination. HL Hunt was one of those sources.. She would have told me this after Ilyas death I would meet her at least once a month for tea and oatmeal.. So that would have been 1991.. I was just getting interested in finding out why Ilya never mentioned he was Marinas translator. That is how this started.. Ok so then later when I met Marina I visted with her and Daryl and her friend for a long lunch.. She admitted she was given alot of money and she was crazy and not thinking and blew thru it.. I told her that sondra had told me about HL HUnt but at that time Marina realized I was just a citizen that was interested in history so she was very open with me.. Plus I dumped my entire purse on the table so she could feel comfortable.. She said no one had ever done that.. She did every crumb in my wallet and check book it was funny because it was a table cloth kind of place.

Pravda: Texas oil man H.L. Hunt arranged JFK assassination

http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/topic/18702-pravda-texas-oil-man-hl-hunt-arranged-jfk-assassination/

Jim DiEugenio once wrote a fine article titled "Why the New York Times Deserves to Die." Basically, it was about the NYT's decades long cover up of the JFK assassination and more particularly their distortions of JFK's foreign policy.

http://www.ctka.net/2010/nyt.html

"On April 8, 2009, Alec Baldwin at Huffington Post, wrote a column decrying the financial problems of the New York Times and saying that it would be a real loss if somehow the Times would have to curtail publication to an online edition. On Len Osanic's Black Op Radio, I took issue with this and said the opposite: When the Times, Washington Post, and LA Times all finally fell, listeners should visit the empty buildings and spit on them. My reasoning being that on the serious issues of the day, the scandals, the murders, and wars that make up modern American history – the JFK assassination, Vietnam, the King murder, the killing of Robert Kennedy, the CIA and drugs, Iran-Contra, Watergate, the phony Clinton scandals (e.g. Whitewater), the elections heists of 2000 and 2004, and the phony run-up to the Iraq War – those papers have not just been wrong, but they have been misleading. And in many cases they have been deliberately so. And it is those issues that have helped form the current reality of American life. Which, in comparative terms, if you were around in the sixties, is pretty bad.

This leaves the obvious question to Mr. Baldwin: Why then Alec, should we lament their current problems and their possible diminution and cessation? How have they served the American public well since 1963? I would argue the opposite. Since they have served us so poorly, we should actually look forward to the day we are free of them. The only problem being that, as I wrote about elsewhere, what is waiting in the wings isn't a heck of a lot better. And this includes the outlet where Baldwin's piece appeared."

WHO IS MORE RELIABLE ON THE JFK ASSASSINATION: PRAVDA, THE AMERICAN MEDIA OR THE KENNEDY FAMILY?

Which brings me to this question: who is a more reliable as a source for truth in the JFK assassination - Soviet party papers such as Pravda from the 1960's and Pravda in 2007 ... or The New York Times, Wash Post, ABC, NBC, CBS, FOX, CNN, MSNBC? Which news sources are more reliable for truth on the JFK assassination? Or even the Kennedy family?

Let's put it this way, the American MSM for the past 48 years has been much less reliable for JFK truth than say, 1950's Soviet Stalinist propaganda would have been.

I should add in the Kennedy family as well, as they played along with the Big Lie in a public fashion from the beginning:

Robert Kennedy: "As I said in Poland last summer, I am convinced Oswald was solely responsible for what happened and that he did not have any outside help or assistance. He was a malcontent who could not get along here or in the Soviet Union."

In 1963-64, the controlled Soviet press was saying "Texas oil barons played a fatal role" in the JFK assassination. Go to the 5th paragraph: http://news.google.com/newspapers?id=azJgAAAAIBAJ&sjid=yW8NAAAAIBAJ&pg=6967,4131942&dq=jfk+assassination&hl=en

In 2007, here is Pravda http://jfkfiles.blogspot.com/2007/09/pravda-says-truth-about-kennedy.html:

"Many experts on America believe that the conspiracy in Dallas was organized by a group of billionaires from Texas with Harold Hunt at head. The man was considered the world’s richest man of that time. The Texas businessman took an active part in the political life of America; he nominated Texas senator Lyndon Johnson for presidential election in 1960. The first attempt to promote Johnson was a failure, but Hunt finished the game in Dallas as a result of which Kennedy was killed and his candidate came to the White House."

Dale Meyers: "Why is this all so compromising for President Bush? According to Pravda, the inertness in the investigation of the crime is due to the fact that both George H.W. Bush and his son George W. Bush "are oilmen belonging to the same group" of Texas oligarchs who whacked Kennedy. No mention is made of the Warren Commission and the House Select Committee on Assassinations which investigated the killing in 1964 and 1977-78."

Let's just say I agree with Pravda. I do think H.L. Hunt and Lyndon Johnson played big roles in the JFK assassination. It is very possible that George Herbert Walker Bush played a big role as well. The best recaps of GHW Bush's possible role in the JFK assassination are in Family of Secrets by Russ Baker and the essay "Did the Bushes help to kill JFK" by Wim Dankbaar over at JFKMurdersolved.

An interesting note: George W. Bush, the son of GHW Bush, appointed Ray Lee Hunt (the son of oil baron H.L. Hunt - a key supporter of Lyndon Johnson) to the plum position of a member of the President's Foreign Intelligence Advisory Board. In my opinion, the fathers of GWB and Ray Lee Hunt were both key players in the JFK assassination. CIA George Herbert Walker Bush was also friends with Lyndon Johnson.

In a nutshell, I think that Soviet propaganda organs such as Pravda have been a much more reliable source for accurate information on the JFK assassination than the American media or the Kennedy family (publicly).

Sen. Maurine Neuberger (D-OR) accused H.L. Hunt of the JFK assassination in real time in 1963

“Senator Maurine Neuberger of Oregon fixed her gaze at the television cameras and pinned the responsibility [for the JFK assassination] on H.L. Hunt.’

[Rick Perlstein, Before the Storm, p. 248]

 

 

H.L. Hunt actually said “I was a great admirer of Jack Kennedy … the Warren Commission did not do a very good job.”

H.L. Hunt Spartacus bio: https://spartacus-educational.com/JFKhuntHL.htm

Dr. Albert E. Burke was at a meeting at the home of H.L. Hunt in 1961 and heard H.L. Hunt say that the only way was to shoot the Kennedys out of office

https://spartacus-educational.com/JFKhuntHL.htm

Dr. Albert E. Burke:

I have listened to communists and other groups that can only be called enemies, accuse us of the worst intentions, the most inhuman ways of doing things, as the most dangerous people on earth, to be stopped and destroyed at all costs... But nothing I have heard in or from those places around us compared with the experience I had in the Dallas home of an American, whose hate for this country's leaders, and the way our institutions worked, was the most vicious, venomous and dangerous I have known in my life. No communist ever heard, no enemy of this nation has ever done a better job of degrading or belittling this country. That American was one of this nation's richest and most powerful men!

It was a very special performance by a pillar of the American community, who influences things in his community. It was a very special performance because in that living room during his performance - in which he said things had reached the point where there seemed to be 'no way left to get those traitors out of our government except by shooting them out' during that performance, there were four teenagers in that room to be influenced. His views were shared on November 22, 1963.

Interestingly, the man accused of that crime claimed to be a Marxist, a communist. But my host assured me - when I objected to his remarks - that he believed as he did because he was anti-communist!

What happened in that home in Dallas, of one of America's richest and most powerful men, shashed that goal of America as a united country for the four teenagers in on that conversation that night.

Lee Shepherd post on Facebook - 4-3-2019 - regarding H.L. Hunt

H. L. Hunt's daughter Caroline Rose Hunt became the richest woman in the world when daddy died. Her net worth then of about $1 billion — more than $2 billion in today’s bucks — included the swank Rosewood Mansion [an elite Dallas club] on Turtle Creek and Hotel Bel-Air in Los Angeles. When two of her brothers, Nelson Bunker Hunt and Herbert Hunt, went down for the financial count after disastrous misadventures in silver, sugar and oil, Rose was still standing Texas tall. The younger brother, Ray Lee Hunt, would build a $74 million, 50-acre complex skyscraper in downtown Dallas in 1977. Its penthouse has a lovely view overlooking the crime scene their father helped pay for at Dealey Plaza. The entire cast of Dallas lived at the family mansion while filming the first couple of TV seasons.

George DeMohrenschildt was good friends with Clint Murchison, H.L. Hunt, Sid Richardson and John W. Mecom. In addition to George Herbert Walker Bush.

Willoughby accompanied Douglas MacArthur to Tokyo for the occupation of Japan. When attempts to suppress news to the United States ended in failure, he labeled reporters who defied him, as "Communists". A Cold War warrior he was a strong supporter of the activities of Joseph McCarthy. He also lobbied the US Congress to authorize $100 million for General Franco's government in Spain. MacArthur once described the six-foot, three-inch, Willoughby as "my little Fascist".

In 1951 Willoughby went before the House of Un-American Activities and provided information about the Richard Sorge spy network. This included information that claimed that Agnes Smedley was a "communist subversive". In retirement Willoughby was a member of the International Committee for the Defense of Christian Culture. During the 1050s he worked closely with Billy James Hargis, Haroldson L. Hunt, John Rousselot and other right-wing figures. Willoughby was also a board member of Young Americans for Freedom, an organization created by Larrie Schmidt.

Two days after the assassination of John F. Kennedy a long-distance telephone operator in Mexico City monitored an international phone call. She heard one of the voices saying: "The Castro plan is being carried out. Bobby is next." The telephone numbers were traced. One number belonged to Emilio Nunez Portuondo, the Latin American Affairs editor of Willoughby's Foreign Intelligence Digest.

In 1968 Willoughby moved with his wife to Naples, Florida. Charles Willoughby died on 25th October, 1972.

A few years later Millegan, Sr. was recruited from the OSS and kept tabs on the notoriously fascist and stubborn General Douglas MacArthur as one of the general’s staffers. A full decade later, in 1956, years before the Vietnam War broke out, he was partying with General Edward Lansdale and even a few North Vietnamese leaders in Saigon. Dulles and his brother belonged to the Pilgrims. MacArthur and Lansdale were favorites of the American Security Council. According to Millegan, his father claimed the Vietnam War was about drugs and that the Cold War really was a set-up ran by the secret societies.

Patrick J. Frawley was a big wig in the ultra right hawkish American Security Council - Many of LBJ’s friends and fellow Kennedy-haters were on it.

 

https://spartacus-educational.com/JFKfawleyP.htm

 

Patrick J. Frawley was born in Nicaragua in 1923. His American father was a banker, import-exporter and dealer in heavy equipment in Latin America.

Fawley was educated in San Francisco but at the age of 18 dropped out of college and returned to Nicaragua to work with his father. One deal arranged by Fawley involved the sale of $300,000 worth of tyres to the Panamanian government.

Fawley served with the Royal Canadian Air Force during the Second World War. In 1945 he married a Canadian and settled in San Francisco. There he became engaged in a series of small-time business ventures that eventually landed him in possession of a failed manufacturer of parts for ball-point pens. Frawley turned the company into PaperMate and in 1955 sold it to Gillette for $15.1m.

The extremely rich Fawley now purchased Bing Crosby' old house on South Mapleton Drive in Los Angeles. That was later sold to Aaron Spelling for $10.25m. He then built another house for $11m.

Fawley used his money to finance right-wing organizations such as the American Security Council (ASC), the lobby for the military-industrial complex. Other members of the ASC included Robert Wood, Robert R. McCormick, Douglas MacArthur, Sam Rayburn, Ray S. Cline, Lyman Lemnitzer, Thomas J. Dodd, W. Averell Harriman, Nelson A. Rockefeller, Eugene V. Rostow, and John G. Tower.

Fawley took over Technicolor Incorporated and Eversharp Incorporated, makers of Schick razors. Schick's introduction of stainless-steel razor blades made it another financial success. Fawley opened up a manufacturing plant in Cuba, but this was lost when Fidel Castro took control of the country.

Fawley now became a financial supporter of Richard Nixon who he hoped would as president order the overthrow of Castro's government in Cuba. He was devastated by Nixon losing to John F. Kennedy in 1960 and the failed Bay of Pigs operation the following year.

In 1961 Alton Ochsner, with the financial help of Clint Murchison, established the Information Council of the Americas (INCA). Ed Butler was appointed as Executive Director of INCA. The main objective of the organization was to prevent communist revolutions in Latin America. Ochsner told the New Orleans States Item: "We must spread the warning of the creeping sickness of communism faster to Latin Americas, and to our own people, or Central and South America will be exposed to the same sickness as Cuba." (16th April, 1963)

Edgar and Edith Stern, owners of WDSU radio and television, were members of INCA. Eustis Reily of the Reily Coffee Company personally donated thousands of dollars to INCA. However, it was Fawley who was INCA's largest financial contributor. The organization used some of this money to make a film about Fidel Castro entitled, Hitler in Havana. The New York Times reviewed the film calling it a "tasteless affront to minimum journalistic standards."

In his book, The Ultras in the USA, Vyacheslav Nikitin points out that Frawley was involved with the American Security Council, the lobby for the military-industrial complex. Frawley was a member of National Strategy Committee that also included General Lyman Lemnitzer.

In 1967 Jim Garrison began investigating the activities of Lee Harvey Oswald in New Orleans. Alton Ochsner told a friend that he feared Garrison would order his arrest and the seizure of INCA's corporate records. Ed Butler took these records to California where Frawley arranged for them to be hidden. Ronald Reagan, the governor of California refused all of Garrison's extradition requests. Frawley had previously helped fund Reagan's political campaigns in California.

Frawley continued to work closely with right-wing activists like Ed Butler. Together they put out a magazine called The Westwood Village Square which tried to blame the assassinations of John F. Kennedy, Robert Kennedy and Martin Luther King on the communists. He also used the threat of withdrawing advertising to control the content of media outlets. For example, he cancelled $3m worth of Schick advertising from ABC News after it broadcast a documentary critical of Richard Nixon.

In 1968, Frawley organized an attempt to oust liberal Senator Thomas Kuchel. Frawley wanted to replace him with retired U.S. Air Force Chief of Staff Curtis LeMay. However, it was eventually agreed to back Max Rafferty, who unseated Kuchel in the primary but lost to Democrat Alan Cranston.

In March 1970, Jack Anderson reported that Senator George Murphy was on the payroll of Technicolor Incorporated. Murphy was receiving $20,000 a year and played a role in helping Frawley to obtain a $3.5 million contract for Technicolor to handle all the filming at Cape Kennedy.

An alcoholic, Fawley purchased Shadel Hospital in Seattle after receiving a course of treatment for his drinking problem at the institution. In 1970 Frawley sold Schick to Warner Lamber. He retained Shadel Hospital and invested some of his profits in order to build up a chain of treatment centres.

William W. Turner spent many years investigating the illegal activities of Frawley. After one article appeared in The Progressive, Frawley complained that Turner was "setting me up to be assassinated". In his autobiography, Rearview Mirror, Turner claimed that Frawley worked closely with Jerry Ducote in "political espionage matters".

Patrick J. Frawley died in Santa Monica, California, on 3rd November, 1998.

Lyndon Johnson and Clare Boothe Luce -

Both H.L. Hunt and Henry Luce were backing William Pawley’s raids on Cuba

John Simkin post at Education Forum

 

Posted September 6, 2012

Clare Boothe Luce was a strong supporter of the Republican Party and had been a member of Congress for Connecticut (1940-46). Her husband, Henry Luce, shared her beliefs and his media empire always supported the Republicans in elections. His support of Dwight Eisenhower was rewarded by appointing Clare Boothe Luce as ambassador to Italy.

However, in 1960, Luce took a keen interest in the Democratic Party nomination in the 1960 Presidential Election. They gave their full support to Lyndon Johnson. When it looked almost certain that Kennedy would win the nomination, Johnson assured Clare that he would "never, never, never accept the Vice-Presidency". A week after Johnson had taken the second spot to Kennedy she asked him why he changed his mind, he replied: "At least I'm only one heart beat away from the job I really want."

Clare did not campaign for Richard Nixon in the 1960 Presidential Election. She told her official biographer, Stephen Shadegg, that the reason for this was because of her close relationship with Joseph Kennedy. If that was the case, why was she campaigning for Johnson?

We now know that Henry and Clare Luce were both hostile to Kennedy's policy towards Cuba.

They joined with Hal Hendrix, Paul Bethel, William Pawley, Virginia Prewett, Dickey Chapelle, Edward Teller, Arleigh Burke, Leo Cherne, Ernest Cuneo, Sidney Hook, Hans Morgenthau and Frank Tannenbaum to form the Citizens Committee to Free Cuba (CCFC).

Luce also funded Alpha 66. In 1962 Alpha 66 launched several raids on Cuba. This included attacks on port installations and foreign shipping. The authors of Deadly Secrets: The CIA-Mafia War Against Castro and the Assassination of JFK (1981) argues that Clare Boothe Luce paid for one of the boats used in these raids: "The anti-communist blonde took a maternal interest in the three-man crew she adopted... She brought them to New York three times to mother them."

Luce later told Gaeton Fonzi that the attacks had been organized by her friend, William Pawley: "Luce said that Pawley had gotten the idea of putting together a fleet of speedboats-sea-going Flying Tigers as it were-which would be used by the exiles to dart in and out of Cuba on intelligence gathering missions. He asked her to sponsor one of these boats and she agreed." John Newman argues in his book, Oswald and the CIA (1995) that Pawley was working for the CIA in Miami. He argues that he was involved with Haroldson L. Hunt and quotes James P. Hosty as saying: "H. L. Hunt was backing Pawley's people, and they were also getting support from Henry Luce."

In the 1964 Presidential Election the Luce media empire supported Lyndon Johnson against Barry Goldwater. One wonders what sort of deal Johnson had done with Luce?

In 1975 Senator Richard Schweiker, a member of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, began investigating the assassination of John F. Kennedy. Two years later the House Select Committee on Assassinations was established. Soon afterwards Schweiker was visited by Vera Glaser, a syndicated Washington columnist. Glaser told him she had just interviewed Luce and that he had given her some information relating to the assassination. According to Gaeton Fonzi, who worked for Schweiker: "Schweiker immediately called Luce and she, quite cooperatively and in detail, confirmed the story she had told Glaser."

In his book, The Last Investigation (1993), Fonzi points out that during the campaign against Fidel Castro in 1963 the captain of one of the boats they were using, was approached by Lee Harvey Oswald who offered his services as a potential Castro assassin. "He said his group didn't believe Oswald, suspected he was really a Communist and decided to keep tabs on him. Fernandez said they found that Oswald was, indeed, a Communist, and they eventually penetrated his cell and tape-recorded his talks, including his bragging that he could shoot anyone". Fernandez also told Luce that Oswald then suddenly came into money and went to Mexico City and then Dallas.
