Hi All,

Yet MORE evidence of Mark Lane outrightly LYING in his book, Rush To
Judgment has been found. This is from page 44 of the Thunder's Mouth
edition of the book (courtesy of Ben Holmes!):

QUOTE ON:

There is some evidence to suggest that one or more shots may have been
fired from the Book Depository, as the Warren Commission maintained.
It is considerably less compelling than the evidence suggesting that
shots came from behind the fence.

QUOTE OFF

The evidence of a TSBD shooter is CONSIDERABLY LESS COMPELLING than
the evidence suggesting a Grassy Knoll shooter?!!

What planet was Lane on when he wrote THAT?!!

Let's see now, evidence suggesting a TSBD shooter includes several
people seeing either a rifleman in the window, or the rifle being
pulled back inside after the shooting; a man one floor below who heard
three shells hitting the floor above him as the shots were fired;
three recovered shells at the window the shooter was seen in, tying
with three shots as heard by the majority of ear witnesses; a rifle
recovered from the floor the man was seen shooting from; recovered
bullet fragments from the car that was being shot upon that matched
the recovered rifle to the exclusion of all other weapons; a long bag
recovered near the window in question with fingerprints on it that
matched those on the rifle; a trail of evidence showing that the rifle
belonged to an employee of the TSBD; evidence that the employee had
brought a long package into the TSBD that morning; evidence that this
same employee had broken his normal pattern and gone out to retrieve
something from where his wife was living the previous evening;
evidence from his wife that this was a rifle; evidence from his wife
that this man had previously tried to shoot a public figure with this
rifle; evidence that this man was a publicly avowed Marxist; evidence
that this man was a former defector to the Soviet Union; evidence that
this man was diametrically opposed to President Kennedy's policy on
Cuba etc etc.

And the CONSIDERABLY MORE COMPELLING evidence of a Knoll shooter is
what? Someone saw some steam but maybe it was smoke from a policeman's
motorcycle? Someone thought they smelled gunsmoke in the carpark and
someone else thought they did all the way to Parkland Hospital? LOL!

CASE CLOSED on whether Mark Lane ever lied in his book, Rush To
Judgment.

This is simply YET ANOTHER example of him doing just that.

Now that you posted a link to the re-enactment, can you explain the
graphic interpretation on the following page p. 263? Because none of the
FBI expert shooters could perform the feats you and other LNers claim
Oswald did? The photos you exhibited showed the "experts" did not hit the
target head? A 4 centimeter area @ 270 yards. That is nearly impossible
for an amateur like Oswald. But Even FBI experts couldn't accomplish. DID
the re-enactors stop the target before the head shot? As stated by many
eyewitnesses saw Greer stop the limo?

Other important eyewitnesses claimed the shots came from the knoll. But
then the LNers claimed their judgment couldn't be trusted. But yet you
rely on some eyewitnesses that say they saw a gun in the window. Enius is
one. But you can't find him in the position he claimed. So now he claimed
that when he "heard the first shot" he ran behind the pillow for his own
defense. Yet if you check the Bell film Enius is not on the corner of
Huston and Elm as he claimed to be? So I think he lied. And I think he
lied about seeing the rifle in the window. That you claimed to be many
earwitnesses. I also think ANYONE WHO believes these foolish liars are
themselves fools. You have been duped.

Mark Lane wrote that before the HSCA.

Just the fact that there was a rifle in the TSBD does not prove that it
was fired during the assassination. The HSCA proved that in 1978 with
their acoustical tests that proved that three shots were fired from the
sniper's nest. A more refined analysis might even confirm what type of
rifle was fired.

The witnesses were wrong. Greer did not stop the limo. The films prove
that. Witnesses often make mistakes like this.
The FBI experts were shooting at stationary targets. So were the Army
experts.

In an effort to test the rifle under conditions that matched the
assassination, the Infantry Weapons Evaluation Branch of the U.S. Army's
Ballistics Research Laboratory had expert riflemen fire the assassination
weapon from a tower at three silhouette targets at distances of 175, 240,
and 265 feet (81 m).[69] Using the assassination rifle mounted with the
telescopic sight, three marksmen, rated as master by the National Rifle
Association, each fired two series of three shots. In the first series the
firers required time spans of 4.6, 6.75, and 8.25 seconds respectively. On
the second series they required 5.15, 6.45, and 7 seconds. The marksmen
took as much time as they wanted for the first target at 175 feet (53 m),
and all hit the target. For the first four attempts, the firers missed the
second shot at 240 feet (73 m) by several inches. Five of the six shots
hit the third target at 265 feet (81 m), the distance of President Kennedy
from the sixth floor window when he was struck in the head.[70] None of
the marksmen had any practice with the assassination weapon beforehand
except to work the bolt.

What makes some witnesses important and others unimportant? Is it just a
matter of whether you like what they said or not?

Too many?
Never rely on witnesses. If you think witnesses prove a fact then you
must also believe that there was a shot from the grassy knoll.

well I agree you can't trust witnesses all the time. People see all sorts
and they make mistakes. I think alot of the grassy knoll witnesses truely
believe they heard / saw shots. I don't think they are lying.

You'll never know what happened. It's really pointless debating it.
Nothing can be proved either way. Why waste time on this ?

The photo I posted showed hits to the head. Did you miss it? I'll post it
again at the end of this message. These experts weren't FBI, they were
from the armed forces. There were several tests. They bettered Oswald's
attributed times several times. Oswald WASN'T an amatuer. He had been
trained by the USMC and attained Sharpshooter level.

His name was Euins and he wasn't the only person who saw a man or a rifle
in the window in question. Seasoned newsmen did. You really need to do a
little bit of reading before trotting out tired old Mark Lane type ideas
that NO ONE could better Oswald's feat with the rifle. Lane simply lied on
that matter.

it's funny reading all the crap on here. It amuses me that people spend vast amounts of time trying to prove something that is impossible. Nobody will 'break this case' - no little bit of evidence will prove either way what happened.

Just except Oswald did the shooting from the TBSD and he probably acted alone. He fired 3 shots and thats it. Any sensible person will come to this conclusion.

There are far more interesting things to learn about. It's a puzzle that will never be solved. Do you think that one day you will prove Oswald didn't act alone or there was a shot from the grassy knoll ?

We already proved that there was a shot from the grassy knoll, may back in
1978. Where ya been? Hiding under a rock. Can you explain how a shot from
the grassy knoll does not prove conspiracy? You have some theory about how
Oswald could have fired from the TSBD and also the grassy knoll?

That Oswald was an "amateur" is a myth. He scored at "sharpshooter" level
in more than one official Marine shooting test. The myth that he was a
"poor shot" originates from people like Nelson Delgado, who freely
admitted to the WC that he never once saw Oswald shoot any type of firearm
in any official shooting exercise, but instead only saw Oswald shoot in
casual circumstances in which Oswald himself made it plain that he was
bored and was not making the slightest attempt to shoot at anywhere close
to his best.

Rather obviously it's because the vast majority of people worldwide
who have any opinion whatsoever about the assassination, no matter
what that opinion is, have formed their opinions almost exclusively
from watching the movie "JFK," and/or reading no more than three books
about the assassination, and/or reading no more than three webpages
about the assassination, and or watching no more than three Youtube
videos about the assassination. Since even the majority of serious
conspiracy researchers freely acknowledge that the vast majority of
books, webpages, etc. devoted to the assassination are often wildly
inaccurate, it is little wonder that some of us feel a continuous
compulsion to set the record straight. I myself have long ago lost
count of how many times I've heard and seen people continue to repeat
and repeat and repeat, mindlessly, the proven myths:

The motorcade route was suddenly changed less than 24 hours in advance
to pass by the TSBD. Provably false beyond all possible doubt.

The Warren Commission claimed that the single bullet paused and
changed direction multiple times; Kevin Costner is given lines in
"JFK" claiming this exact thing. Provably false beyond all possible
doubt: the Warren Commission never claimed anything even remotely like
that.

The shadow of the rifle in 133-b, one of the "backyard photos," is
clear evidence of fakery. Provably false beyond all possible doubt.
The average 10-year-old child, with absurd ease, can duplicate the
same effect merely by facing the sun at any time of day on any day of
the year whenever the sun is not directly overhead by tilting any long
narrow object to the right AND forward; I myself demonstrated this
conclusively in this video:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3AuNDNpY4f4

Still to this day, as far as I know, not one person, not one, has even
tried to post a video anywhere on the Internet that comes within one-
million light-years of refuting this. I do, however, know of several
conspiracy believers who have specifically told me that they
absolutely refuse to even try to prove me wrong, and absolutely refuse
to go outside in any type of sunlight to even try to find out if I
really am wrong or not.

Another myth: Jack Ruby kept hinting, and hinting, and hinting, that
he knew about a conspiracy to assassinate JFK, and that this was the
reason he begged Earl Warren to bring him to Washington. Provably
false beyond all possible doubt. What Ruby actually said (and what
the conspiracy authors NEVER quote) was that he believed that right-
wing groups in Dallas such as the John Birch Society were trying to
implicate him in the assassination of the President because he was
Jewish, and for this reason he said he felt safer testifying in
Washington rather than in Dallas. Also, when he kept saying over and
over and over that the world would never know of his claims, it was
quite obviously because he was never told at the time that his WC
testimony would eventually be published. Look at the testimony if you
don't believe me: nowhere does anyone tell him that his testimony will
be published, ever.

And possibly the biggest myth of all:

A substantial number of Dealey Plaza witnesses said they thought that
the sounds of the shots came from multiple directions. Provably false
beyond all possible doubt. More than 90% of the witnesses who thought
shots came from any direction even remotely consistent with the
"grassy knoll" specifically said that they thought ALL of the shots
sounded as if they came from there, or else named no other direction
in their statements. More than 90% of the witnesses who thought shots
came from any direction even remotely consistent with the TSBD
specifically said that they thought ALL of the shots came from there,
or else named no other direction in their statements. More than 90%
of the witnesses who thought shots came from any direction even
remotely consistent with the railroad yards specifically said that
they thought ALL of the shots came from there, or else named no other
direction in their statements. More than 90% of the witnesses who
thought shots came from any direction even remotely consistent with
the Triple Underpass specifically said that they thought ALL of the
shots came from there, or else named no other direction in their
statements. In short, no matter what direction each individual
witness named in her/his statements, more than 90% of them
individually named only one direction for all of the sounds of
gunfire, no matter how many or how few shots they said they recalled.
There was a firm consensus that all of the gunfire came from a single
location. The lack of consensus was simply one which location that
was.

Wrong, it comes from the Marine expert Folsom. Didn't you read the
letter that he sent to the WC which I posted? He called Oswald "a rather
poor shot."
If you are going to make claims then back them up.
Post the dates of every time that Oswald qualified for Sharpshooter and
document it.

It depends on their age. Most babyboomers alreadt formed their opinion
longer before the movie "JFK" came out. Many because of the writings in
alternative newspapers and the anti-war movement.
Many young people only know the moview "JFK."

Much of the movie "JFK" was based on the Jim Marrs book "Crossfire."
You have the luxury of being a WC defender so it's easy for you to
attack any and all conspiracy believers. As a conspiracy believer myself
it is awkward having to chide friends.

And sometimes even die-hard conspiracy believers have changed their
opinions of things, as Robert Groden did when he got to see the evidence
first hand while working for the HSCA.

Not quite. His personal safety is the reason why he begged Earl Warren
to bring him to Washington. His hook was that he would tell them more
about the conspiracy. But a lot of it was in his imagination.

How do you know his testimony would eventually be published? Everything
was supposed to be kept secret for 75 years and even today some is being
withheld.

Nor is there any need to.

False assumptions. It depends on how the question was asked. In some
cases people would say shots came from the grassy knoll, but they did
not specify that ALL the shots came from the grassy knoll.

That's just not true. You haven't read his testimony.

He wanted to go to Washington to convince LBJ that he wasn't part of
any conspiracy.

You should *not* depend on what Mark Lane tells you.

Nonsense. I read Jack Ruby's testimony long before you did and quoted it
more often than you have.

His STATED reason for wanting to go to Washington was for protection. If
he didn't have to worry about his safety he could have convinced them of
his innocence right then and there.

I don't see how I am misrepresenting Lane. He is simply a proven liar.

Let's not forget that his whole agenda is clearing the clearly guilty
Marxist murderer Oswald.

That must be why the KGB saw fit to partially fund his work in the
sixties.

And didn't he receive financial help from Corliss Lamont?

You know, the guy whose pro-Castro/anti-Kennedy pamphlet, The Crime
Against Cuba, Oswald handed out in New Orleans.

Lane runs a political agenda of his own.

Maybe you need to buy a new calender. It's not the 50's now.

Unfounded propaganda.
