(5,276 posts)I admire the people who cling to the Oswald lone nut fiction, dogged they are, blinders/closed mind and all.
There are just too may documents, files, affidavits, facts out there now. Evidence. Memos and calls involving Johnson, Richard Russell, Nicholas Katzenbach and more. Bobby knew pretty quickly the parameters of what happened but had to close off those avenues because of Castro/Cuba, and things relating to that - even the Francis Gary Powers U-2 incident. Jackie Kennedy made it plain she knew as well - which is part of the reason she would up hooking up with Onassis and getting out of Dodge, she worried about her kids.
Dallas Police Chief Curry even admitted they couldn't even prove Oswald was up in that "snipers nest" or shot anyone. He (LHO) came up clean on the paraffin test. I get more sure every day he was a patsy. BTW, patsies very similar to Oswald were in place for the attempts that never came off just before Dallas, first Chicago then Tampa. Ruby - I believe his job was to kill Oswald before he was in custody, he didn't get it done right away, which got dicey for the conspirators because he got to a phone and also was able to deny he did it.
Then - you see other films and pictures of the immediate aftermath in Dealey Plaza and everyone was walking, running, pointing toward the grassy knoll. And - tapes and informants since have multiple mafia kingpins admitting being behind it. It appears there were as many as 3-4 shooters, but the lead suspect for firing the "frangible" bullet that blew away part of JFK's head was the head hit man for the Chicago Mafia, Chuck Nicoletti. One of his cohorts may have been one of the 3" tramps", Charles Harrison - none other than actor Woody Harrelson's dad.
Vincent Bugliosi, Gerald Posner, and their devotees, are living with blinders in a bubble, hands over their ears and eyes.
