JFK WAS ACTIVELY INVOLVED IN CIA ASSASSINATION PLOTS:

Post by Bruce Patrick Brychek »

POINT: 2. JFK WAS ACTIVELY INVOLVED IN CIA ASSASSINATION PLOTS:

"The president's files would reveal that Jack and Bobby Kennedy were more than merely informed about the CIA'S assassination plotting against Prime Minister Fidel Castro of Cuba: they were its strongest advocates. The necessity of Castro's death became a presidential obsession after the disasterous failure of the Bay of Pigs invasion in April 1961, and remained an obsession to the end. White House files also dealt with three foreign leaders who were murdered during Kennedy's thousand days in the presidency - Patrice Lumumba, of the Congo; Rafael Trujillo, of the Dominican Republic; and Ngo Dinh Diem, of South Vietnam. Jack Kennedy knew of and endorsed the CIA'S assassination plotting against Lumumba and Trujillo before his inauguration on January 20, 1961. He was much more active in the fall of 1963, when a brutal coup d'etat in Saigon resulted in Diem's murder. Two months before the coup, Kennedy summoned air force general Edward G. Lansdale, a former CIA operative who had been involved in the administration's assassinations plotting against Fidel Castro, and asked whether he would return to Saigon and help if the president decided he had to 'get rid' of Diem. 'Mr. President,' Lansdale responded, 'I couldn't do that.' The plot went forward. None of this would be revealed until this book, and none of it was shared with Lyndon Johnson, then the vice president."

The Dark Side of Camelot, Seymour M. Hersh, p. 3.

COMMENTARY: JFK and RFK were proponents of CIA Assasinations, and coup d'etat's when it favored their hidden agendas. Why is it so surprising when the same was done to them, then ?

Diem

President Kennedy made every effort to persuade Diem and his brother to reconcile with the Buddhists. Douglass relates the role of provocateur played by Lodge. Let us remember Henry Cabot Lodge ran with Richard Milhous Nixon against John Kennedy and Lyndon Johnson. The outright disrespect Lodge showed should have had his ass on a plane back to DC to be stripped of his portfolio and kicked out the door.That he was not so dismissed is part of why Kennedy was killed. He did not realize he was playing with killers.Speaking of Lansdale. He played his generals and had them lure Diem and bro into the APC for the wire trussing and double-taps.Hunt tried to forge some cables to hang the killings on Kennedy. Gore Vidal busted him for it in the 1973 Review of Books The Art and Arts of E. Howard Hunt.I think Hersh likes to sex things up, e.g., allege all manner of sexual and drug capers which are not sourced. And serve to make the researchers not care—Bruce, you ask if anyone still cares. . . .I think James Douglass elaborates themes from L. Fletcher Prouty which are later underscored in Doug Horne's Inside the ARRB Volume V, namely that Kennedy made enemies by going against the grain.I would add to the Johnson aspect (ambition, scandal, legal peril, animosity, ruthlessness), and the military (missiles in Cuba, test ban, detente with Khruschev), the Cubans (demarche with Castro), the CIA (the firings, shattering into a thousand pieces), the hatred expressed by Marcello (take the stone from my shoe, he's going to be hit), Giancana (Double-Cross, JFK and Sam), Traficante and Hoffa and Roselli and Nicoletti and Files—that the Kennedy Brothers only had that power because of the support of organized crime and the deals made to insure its support.There was an overriding national security imperative to fight the Cold War. NSAM 263 October 11, 1963, removing a thousand advisors a month was the last exit. Some would say it was the Murchison dinner November 21. And why wouldn't Nixon have been in attendance.Brown & Root. A billion a week. Michael Paine's stepfather Arthur Young a founder of Bell Helicopter that made millions off thousands of Huey's consumed in Vietnam. Ruth Paine's mother was good friends with Mary Bancroft spy-pal and mistress to Allen Dulles. Angleton and ONI didn't use Oswald because Kennedy was an assassin or promiscuous or an experimenter with drugs. Nor did these allegations motivate Nicolleti or Murchison or Byrd or Hoover.They are convenient tools of Phillips the propagandist who took an early retirement in 1975 to form an organization to refurbish the image of spooks.John Kennedy was killed by ambitious men who responded to challenge with bullets rather than bullet-point arguments.Peace, he said.Bang, bang, they replied.Hoover's heart attack 1972. Johnson's, 1973. Nixon's sayonara 1974. Ford's 1977, January 20.And Halloween of that year Carter's DCI Stansfield Turner trick-or-treated 820 case officers with pink slips.
