To all of the 'Oswald did it alone' nuts...

I have done most of the reading you have suggested. I still can't believe there are people who actually believe LHO was the lone shooter. Now at the end of "Parkland" it is shown that Agent James Hosty burned Oswald's file. It is quite obvious it was not a large file. Now, they say there are 50,000 (revealed) documents regarding Oswald. Can there be any doubt that there was indeed a cover-up? Almost every poll or survey indicate a high percentage of doubt. I believe somewhere between 70-80%.

What is new for me is the great possibility that Oswald was receiving money for employment of $200 a month. Regardless what the Warren commission decided to ignore.

You say that only the truth will set you free. It may be there in Mrs. Kennedy's documents, but I believe Caroline Kennedy will be around for a long time. Some of you will find out the truth, but I won't be around.

Our guest is journalist and author Stephen Kinzer to discuss his most recent book titled, "The Brothers: John Foster Dulles, Allen Dulles, and Their Secret World War."

To Kariann:

Lots of reasons. JFK fired top CIA people after the Bay of Pigs fiasco: Allen Dulles and Charles Cabell. Dulles and Cabell hated Kennedy. Dulles was on the Warren Commission, and Cabell's brother was the mayor of Dallas. Kennedy felt that the CIA had too much power and wanted to disband it. This was not a popular idea within the CIA.

Kennedy was going to force J. Edgar Hoover to retire in 1964. Hoover didn't want to retire, and hated both John and Robert Kennedy with a passion. By contrast, he was BFF with Lyndon Johnson.

Please consider the possibility that Lee Oswald shot NOBODY. He had no motive.

By contrast, Dulles, Cabell, Hoover and Johnson all benefited tremendously from Kennedy's death.

I ask in all sincerity, does your post have a purpose. Does it contribute to our discussion? I certainly don't see ANYONE getting demolished. Just my 2 cents worth.

Precisely; I've read many books about the Kennedy assassination, including the conspiracy theories. None of the latter really produce any evidence except the now debunked 'magic bullet' and the fact a third shot was heard - all the 'evidence' they say they have has been debunked and explained away.

I have done the same with 9/11 and, again, the conspiracy theorists are pointing to bizarre and unsupported 'evidence', all of which has been debunked here as well.

Sometimes bad people just do terrible things; even in America the authorities miss things and terrorists get the upper hand, however temporarily. That doesn't mean the government allowed it to happen, it was a mistake. Personally I think that believing your government allowed an assassination or terrorist attack to happen is actually worse than believing your authorities screwed up.

But that's just me; I'm so weird I'm one of the screwballs who actually believe we did go to the moon, and land on it.

Despite the efforts of some excellent actors the 'Parkland' film was doomed by an agenda driven, simplistic script.

I've no time to waste arguing with disinfo trolls who sabotage IMDB boards discussing Kennedy assassination movies.

I happen to be an MD with 30+ years experience, various specialties. (Also a veteran & marksman.) Being but a toddler when the JFK assassination happened and in kindergarten when MLK, then RFK were murdered, I didn't much know or care about those events until the 1990s when became good friends with someone I enjoyed teasing about being a CT (conspiracy theorist).

However, I was fair-minded enuff to examine all available factual evidence and was surprised by what was available even in the Warren Commission reports.

Each doctor present at Parkland Hospital's ER on November 22, 1963 described the wound in Kennedy's throat as an entry wound. Even an inexperienced intern can distinguish entry wounds made by a projectile (bullet in this case) from an exit wound. Since each experienced Parkland MD described the wound on President Kennedy's throat as an entry wound I accept their testimonies as factual. Perhaps Americans in general back in 1964 were too dumb to have understood medical testimony in the Warren Report. It looks like not much has changed.

Excerpt:

Mr. SPECTER - What did you observe as to the President's condition upon his arrival?

Dr. CARRICO - He was lying on a carriage, his respirations were slow, spasmodic, described as agonal.

Mr. SPECTER - What do you mean by "agonal" if I may interrupt you for just a moment there, Doctor?

Dr. CARRICO - These are respirations seen in one who has lost the normal coordinated central control of respiration. These are spasmodic and usually reflect a terminal patient.

Mr. SPECTER - Would you continue to describe your observations of the President?

Dr. CARRICO - His-- the President's color--I don't believe I said--he was an ashen, bluish, grey, cyanotic, he was making no spontaneous movements, I mean, no voluntary movements at all. We opened his shirt and coat and tie and observed a small wound in the anterior lower third of the neck, listened very briefly, heard a few cardiac beats, felt the President's back, and detected no large or sucking chest wounds, and then proceeded to the examination of his head. The large skull and scalp wound had been previously observed and was inspected a little more closely. There seemed to be a 4-5 cm. area of avulsion of the scalp and the skull was fragmented and bleeding cerebral and cerebellar tissue. The pupils were inspected and seemed to be bilaterally dilated and fixed. No pulse was present, and at that time, because of the inadequate respirations and the apparent airway injury, a cuffed endotracheal tube was introduced, employing a larynzo scope. Through the larynzo scope there seemed to be some hematoma around the larynx and immediately below the larynx was seen the ragged tracheal injury. The endotracheal tube was inserted past this injury, the cuff inflated, and the tube was connected to a respirator to assist the inadequate respiration. At about this point the nurse reported that no blood pressure was obtained.

Mr. SPECTER - Dr. Carrico, with respect to this small wound in the anterior third of the neck which you have Just described, could you be any more specific in defining the characteristics of that wound?

Dr. CARRICO - This was probably a 4-7 ram. wound, almost in the midline, maybe a little to the right of the midline, and below the thyroid cartilage. It was, as I recall, rather round and there were no jagged edges or stellate lacerations.

Malcolm Oliver Perry was the first doctor to attend to President of the United States John F. Kennedy at Parkland Memorial Hospital in Dallas, Texas on November 22, 1963 after Kennedy was shot while riding in an open car.

When John F. Kennedy was shot on November 22, 1963, he was taken to Parkland Hospital. Perry was the first doctor to attend to Kennedy, performing a tracheotomy over the small wound in Kennedy's throat. Perry also rendered aid to Texas Governor John Connally, who was travelling in the car with Kennedy and was also shot.

Perry stated three times at a press conference later that day that Kennedy's neck wound appeared to be an entrance wound. However, when interviewed by the Warren Commission, Perry said that he now believed that a "full jacketed bullet without deformation passing through the skin would leave a similar wound for an exit and entrance wound and with the facts which you have made available and with these assumptions, I believe that it was an exit wound."
