Here is a list of the Greatest Lies, Slanders, Defamations about CIA patsy and patriot Lee Harvey Oswald - all collected in one place

 Lee Harvey Oswald was a completely innocent CIA patsy who did not murder JFK, did not shoot Gov. John Connally, did not murder Officer J.D. Tippit, did not try to murder Gen. Edwin Walker in April, 1963. Oswald love JFK and his family so much that he could have been president of the Dallas Fan Club for JFK. Oswald as a young teen admired FBI informer Herbert Philbrick who like to pretend to be a communist as he busted up commie rings and Phibrick had both a radio and TV about his life that ran in the early 1950's. Lee Harvey Oswald was also a huge fan of John Wayne and the movie the Sands of Iwo Jima. Oswald was a huge fan of James Bond books, which was a series of books that glorified Western Intelligence and was written by Ian Fleming who in real life was an MI6 British intelligence Operative.

Below are a list of collected essays about all the great lies that have been told about completely innocent CIA operative Lee Harvey Oswald. These lies include accusations that he murdered JFK, murdered Officer J.D. Tippit and that Oswald had tried to kill Gen. Edwin Walker in April of 1963.
