I got *this* e-mail in response to my e-mail to Jim Fetzer.

<Quote on>

Hi John,

I'm glad to see you are beginning to recognize that controversial issues
of potentially momentous importance - issues so controversial they terrify
most scholars into looking the other way - need to be debated. Perhaps you
are now willing to admit that if there is only a modest (say, 5%) chance
that 9/11 or the JFK hit were inside jobs, these claims would still
deserve a tremendous amount of attention and debate, due to their
overwhelming importance if they did turn out to be true.

In that spirit, may I suggest that you do Marquette University proud, and
stand in for the 10,000-plus UW system teachers who are afraid to defend
the 9/11 Commission Report in a debate with me. By debating me, you will
be sending $2,000 to two very worthy 9/11 501c3 charities. See:
http://debate911.blogspot.com/

Can you commit to defending the 9/11 Commission Report in a debate with me
here at the University of Wisconsin-Madison on or about Tuesday, September
11th, 2012? The debate would be sponsored by a student organization, the
UW-Madison Sifting and Winnowing Club.

Best

Boy, they went right off the deep end, didn`t they?

Seems they used all their own credibility and are forced to beg for
other people`s.

"Credibility" is certainly a subjective term, eh? I'm not going to stir
the pot on this one, but how does clinging to the WC's conclusion of a
lone assassin gain someone this elusive credibility? Conspiracy
researchers have to practically beg for recognition, and then only when we
offer legitimate citation and support.

On the defender side, do you receive automatic credibility for taking that
stance?

Of course, just like "facts" and "truth" to those who "think out of
the box".

Because believing things that are true to be true lends credibility.

My point exactly. The only way they can get someone to listen to them
any more is if they debate an LNer who brings credibility to the table.

> stance?

Yes, taking a reasonable and supportable position gains you credibility.
Believing a silly proposition like "Oswald was a patsy" (or the twin
towers were brought down by space lasers) loses you credibility. The idea
that evidence and testimony that incriminates Oswald is all contrived to
frame him is an intellectually bankrupt position where the most incredible
and extraordinary is supported by the weak and meager.

James H. Fetzer is a total joke, even amongst most of the outer-fringe
CTers. And I can understand why John McAdams doesn't want to waste his
time debating a complete joke. Although it would definitely be fun to
watch, as Fetzer would be forced to claim that all the evidence against
Oswald is fake, just as all of the other loony Anybody-But- Oswald quacks
have to claim.

Incredibly, Fetzer is a guy who thinks JFK and Connally were hit by a
minimum of SEVEN separate bullets. Seven!

But what do you think Fetzer's answer is to this question -- "Where did
all of those bullets go, Jim?"

He has no reasonable answer for that question, of course, since his theory
is utter fantasy--and always has been. Just as his "Z-Film Hoax" is a
fantasy as well.

But if CTers didn't have their fantasies, they'd have nothing to argue at
all.

Just as an exercise in logic why can't some of the
Oswald-Was-Part-of-The-Conspiracy kooks just as easily claim that all
the evidence is fake?
Do you envision that every real assassin has been caught and convicted?
None got away because of sloppy police work or damaged evidence?

Well, if the WC defenders have their fantasies why can't the conspiracy
believers have some as well?

Can that apply to persons believing a conspiracy was at least possible
through circumstantial evidence? A lot of us believe it to be a
conspiracy.

And there's my point exactly, Bud, respectfully. It seems as though the
stereotypical opinion-by-default is that if it's not the LN perspective
= no credibility. We can't even get to the table without pre-conceived
notions.

I cannot argue against that, surely.

> Believing a silly proposition like "Oswald was a patsy"

I am a conspiracy believer, but I don't subscribe to Oswald being an
innocent patsy. I do believe he was involved, and still made to be the
fall guy. Can we get any credible traction with that?


> (or the twin
> towers were brought down by space lasers) loses you credibility.

The JFK murder's conspiracy supporters, in all fairness, should be
considered only within the context of his murder. Not all of us blindly
accept the foolish conjecture of an inside 9-11 hoax. The anthrax
mailings, however, should be scrutinized much more deeply, especially with
respect to the FBI's handling of it.

> The idea
> that evidence and testimony that incriminates Oswald is all contrived to

I agree fully, Bud. Can I ask that you consider the same evidence, but
with an open mindedness that places the damning evidence directly onto
Oswald as a co-conspirator? Your position is clearly very supportable, and
I appreciate that.

There are aspects that, IMO, are not as weak and meager as you believe.
One of these is the photo that was alleged to be LHO in Mexico City, but
clearly was not. Then there is the audio tape recording, of which Hoover
was aware, that was also alleged to be LHO and obviously was not.

Can it be considered weak and meager from our perspective that the Pentagon destroyed their file(s)? Also, I apologize for being the "broken record" on this, but the loss of the Harper Fragment I find very difficult to simply dismiss. Dr. McAdams' bolsters his LN position by stating there that Billy Harper's identified location of discovery supports LHO firing from above & behind. No problem, right? Wrong -- .john's phrasing there alludes that the fragment landed there and remained, then makes the leap of "animals may have moved it" but it's doubtful. With all of the human activity in DP, not even a squirrel would have shown its face there. This is notwithstanding the throngs of people in DP after the shooting that could have easily relocated that fragment.

We're reminded quite often to dismiss testimony of eye witnesses, or ear witnesses. The multiple claims of testimony under oath that at least two of the audible shots were nearly on top of each other must be explained by echoes. But if echoes can't explain it properly, is it weak and meager to suspect two separate shots at nearly the same moment?

Before you hogtie me for the two-headshot theory and a possible GK shooter, I remain unconvinced, but I'm not expert. I try to reconcile existing evidence with conjecture, and I strongly feel a conspiracy was afoot, completely disregarding any GK shooter. In their defense, however, the dictabelt issue can be argued credibly from either viewpoint, as well as Tony Marsh's strong conviction of a right-temple inshoot, after viewing the originals at NARA.

Thanks, Bud. Respectfully,
~Mark

But Oswald was hired at the TSBD in Sept. and up until a week or so before
the assassination the motorcade would have been traveling eastward off the
Stemmons (from Love Field) on Main to the Women's Center where the
luncheon was originally supposed to be. The point is that there would have
been no clear shot from the TSBD at JFK...in fact Jackie would have been
between JFK and the TSBD.

Now, to squeeze that fact into a conspiracy theory in which Oswald was
involved maybe you could offer one of these explanations [?]:

1. The conspiracy had other shooters originally positioned at strategic
locations along the route to the Women's Center...but din't need them in
the end....so they were swon to secrecy?

Hmmm, so they got lucky and had one of their shooters [LHO] right there to
make the shot when the route was changed to go to the Trade Mart?

How does that work for you?

2. The conspiracy knew the Trade Mart would be the final choice for the
luncheon because they had insiders make that change?

Problem there is that Gov. Connally was the person most responsible for
making the change for the luncheon from the Women's center to the Trade
Mart....do you think JBC was involved?

Also, more in on the conspiracy to make the change? Their numbers are
piling up, eh...tough to keep them all quiet for decades, no? Unless they
were silenced...for good?

3. The conspiracy could have had Oswald pack up his trusty Carcano and
move from the TSBD to wherever he was needed?

How that work for you?

See my point? Of course you don't and Marsh will come to your rescue on
this...just wait for his reply. Yah, he'll rescue you by throwing you both
ends of the rope.

Clearly? So all the evidence that says he was there was manufactured? Hmmm
this conspiracy was pretty big, eh? Hard to keep one that size from
exposing itself considering how long it's been, doncha think?

>Then there is the audio tape recording, of which Hoover >was aware, that

Do you file that under "Hard evidence there was an assassination
conspiracy"...or under "Suspicious events"?

More conspirators?...a small army of them, eh?

Do you really...honestly now, find it totally inconceivable that out of
respect and sensitivity for his fallen brother RFK had parts of his
[JFK's] body, including his brain, etc. confiscated and destroyed as
opposed to being kept (even if they were evidence) in the archives to be
examined every time there was a re-examinaton of the evidence?

You just can't buy that, can you? Am I being unreasonable by suggesting
that? Really?

So the medical evidence that shows there was only one channel-like path
through the brain and only one entry and one exit defect noted (not to
mention there was no fragments found behind JFK) was fabricated?

Based on_______? Fill that in with all the hard evidence you have
please....again that would be "hard" evidence.

So you think the dictabelt matter is disputable...fine, just throw it out
of the argument...after all you guys have a ton of other "hard" evidence
there was a conspiracy, right?

>after viewing the originals at N=
>ARA.

Tony examined the original autopsy photos etc. at the NA? Really?

I understood him to say he's "seen" the original Fox set. If you believe
him fine, but obviously he doesn't have them in his possession to examine
whenever he wants, right?

He claims that JFK wasn't hit once in the BOH...yes, not once anywhere
there!

In support of that "theory", he claims that the photo of JFK's BOH scalp
really doesn't show the entry in the scalp, but just shows a blood clot or
some other defect....meaning the autopsists took a picture of a blood clot
or whatever and tried to sell the idea it was the scalp entry. I guess
Tony thinks they hoped no one would ever be able to closely examine that
photo and see indications (as the HSCA did) that that "blood clot" (or
whatever) had an abrasion collar?

Hmmm, a blood clot with an abrasion collar...why not...makes good CT
sense...just ask Tony.

Also the autopsists took a picture of a circular defect in JFK's rear
skull...or that's the official story anyway.

So if it was a lie I guess Tony is saying there again that the autopsists
just took a picture of some circular skull defect (that wasn't the entry)?
Another blood clot?

Interesting that the HSCA saw the beveling inward of the skull around that
defect isn't it....if it wasn't an entry defect?

Also interesting that, if that circular defect was not the entry how a
trail of tiny opacities (tiny skull fragments) on the lateral X-ray
matches the location of that circular defect?

Of course Tony surely must think the autopsists made up the story that
they sectioned the tissue around the entry and saw microsopic pieces of
skull. He wants to see the slides for himself.....sure the lab techs were
in on the conspiracy too....in fact who wasn't?

He also claims that the autopsists were so incompetent and stupid I guess
that they didn't see an entry wound in the forehead above JFK's right
eye...but took a picture of JFK's skull so CTs, like Tony, could find it
and claim it was caused by a bullet fired from other than JFK's rear.

Now, he'll point out that Dr. Angel said that defect was an exit wound
(not an entry like Tony says, but who's to nitpick)...but what he won't
tell you is that Angel clearly said to the FPP the exit was just forward
of the coronal suture near the Stephanion process....and that defect
(Tony's entry) above JFK's right eye is medical miles from the coronbal
suture.

IOW Angel goofed when he said Tony's entry was a bullet wound and even
corrected himself in front of the FPP...but Tony exploited his mistake and
won't ever forgive him for making it....because Tony needs "evidence" to
support his silly "no-hits-to-JFK's-BOH" theory.

Also note that an enlargement of Tony's forehead entry shows it to look
nothing like a bullet wound...that's a photo Tony doesn't like.

Hang in there...and maybe work on that list of hard evidence there was a
conspiracy?

The missing Harper fragment is not evidence of anything except

missing, it must have been because it proved something. When there are
other non-conspiratorial explainations that are possible, this hardly is

Wow, that sounds so scary. Like a massive conspiracy theory. The CIA tried
to kill Castro dozens of times and several people involved were sworn to
secrecy. Did they talk? Yes. And what happened when they talked? One was
shot several times in the head with a silenced pistol in his kitchen. One
was killed and found floating in an oil barrel.

More likely he wanted to keep them out of the hands of the government so
that they wouldn't go on public display. As a devout Catholic I think he
might be against destroying body parts.
I really enjoyed how you added that parenthetical statement, "even if
they were evidence." Even if? If not then why are autopsy doctors
examining them? Did the autopsy doctors examine the lunch served that

Maybe the Anthrax mailings were only a hoax. Maybe they were a Fund
Raiser to make the argument that the department should not be cut
because biological weapons are still a big threat. Maybe it was a test
by the CIA to see how well the system detects biological weapons.

I have no idea. I've never touched a book by Fetzer--and never will. The
"seven bullets" theory comes straight from Fetzer's lips on several of his
radio podcasts (including the clip linked below, from January 23, 2012).

He thinks Kennedy was hit by four separate bullets, and he also posits
anywhere from one to three different bullets hitting Connally (and in
various radio shows, he's made it clear that he certainly believes that
JBC was hit by more than just one bullet).

Did he actually say all that or did he just ask rhetorical questions?
Wow, so Connally being hit by more than just one bullet means he was hit
by 3 bullets? You just admitted that he wasn't specific about how many
bullets hit Connally when he said it could be anywhere from one to three
bullets. So anyone who says that Connally could have been hit by more
than one bullet must be a conspiracy kook? Does that include all the
doctors who presented their own SBT to the WC on April 15, 1964?

Are you suggesting there were metal fragments behind JFK? No one looked for
them, is that it? Or do you posit that more conspirators confiscated them? My my
how busy they were. Your "baker's dozen" [conspirators] were busier than a
family of beavers on dam building day.

I was talking about tiny bone fragments near the EOP seen on the lateral X-ray,
not the tiny metal fragments high in his head.

Also, Angel contradicted himself, about the defect over JFK's right eye....there
was only one exit so either he had to be wrong about the forehead defect (you
ridiculously think was an entry) being a bullet wound or he had to be wrong when
he said the exit was just forward or the coronal suture at the Stephanion.

The bottom line is clear. His placement of the beveled out corner of the large
late arriving skull pieces (with the meatllic residue on it) sealed the deal
about where the exit was.......which was, like he told the FPP, "just forward of
the coronal suture" (which, again--not that you care--is medical miles from
above the right eye).

You're so busy looking back over your shoulder for CIA hit men that you
didn't/don't have time to study the medical evidence....but what CT needs to
study the medical evidence to come up with their ridiculous theories? You're no
exception, IMO.

A blood clot with an abrasion collar?

LOL.

A circular defect in JFK's rear skull that's not the entry even though that
circular defect is below the ruler and 2.5 cm from the its edge [the ruler edge]
and centered in the pictue titled, "Missile wound in occipital skull..."?

You're cracking me up...funny man.

Oh, BTW, I was a little paranoid too once when Marcello's Granddaughter wrote
me, using some concerning [to me] language saying she read in my book where I
made a case for her Grandfather sanctioning LHO's murder....even though I'd
wrote that I was speculating.

Yup, I was looking over my shoulder for a while until she wrote back saying I
had it right....then I got over it and was able, unlike you (and just about
every other researcher and author I know of, except maybe Barb), to meticulously
study, almost exclusively, for about 12 years perhaps the most important
evidence in this case--the medical evidence.

Actually, David, I believe it's now "eight to ten" shots fired. Not
only that, but "provably" so. This is what Fetzer claims in his latest
presentations in front of his audiences when speaking live about the

Oswald did not work for Castro, the seed was planted to create that very
suspicion. Kind of a "mental false flag" thing.

Neither, Tony. I meant conspiracy supporters like you, me, and Bigdog!

Maybe it was a test to see how lethally effective it was on liberal
senators, a liberal television personality, and a few innocent, dead
shmucks to deceive us into accepting it as random.

I see your points, John, and I accept them. Humor me here, but the
speculation surrounding advance placement of Oswald seems to be conflated,
IMO. If he had a handler, he could have been contacted somehow on
Thursday, prompting him to hitch a ride with Buell Frazier out to the
Paine's that evening. A little more humor here -- his status as operative
had him believe he would be experiencing time away from Marina, so he left
cash and his ring. Concerning the alignment with Jackie, that particular
point I would counter-argue that her safety would merely be secondary, if
considered at all. They did shoot John Kennedy, with her sitting right
there.

Respectfully, John, that's ridiculous. The fewer the better that are in
the loop of knowledge. The only sure way to swear these secret backup
shooters to secrecy is to simply kill them too. You made up this scenario,
then expect me to defend it as my own. That dog won't hunt.

Yes, that works perfectly for me. I don't think it's doing much for you
though.

I doubt it. A small conspiracy of a very few people with the four "M's"
(Means, method, motive, and money) could have had Oswald there, and they
simply got very lucky. I can easily counter that with this: If he didn't
get the chance to shoot, oh well, they'll try again elsewhere.

> Problem there is that Gov. Connally was the person most responsible for

> Mart....do you think JBC was involved?

No chance of Connally's involvement. I suppose we could think that if he
WAS involved, he may have found the courage to sit in that car. But I
highly doubt that he'd even remotely consider the dangers to his wife.

> Also, more in on the conspiracy to make the change?

Why are you piling up the numbers? I'm not doing that. You are.

Their numbers are
> piling up, eh...tough to keep them all quiet for decades, no?

Yes, and they weren't successful at keeping them quiet. Admiral Burkley
was poised to tell the HSCA, and through his lawyer, he let us know that
he had either information or direct evidence of others' involvement. I
will continue to take that aspect to task with LN's.

Precisely. Oswald was the first.

No. That would have exposed him as the operative he was. Do you doubt that
the CIA or FBI had operatives other than Oswald? Even if LHO was NOT an
operative, obviously they needed people in that role.

It didn't work for me.

I hate to burst your preconceived notion regarding my ability to
understand your points, John. I give you that much respect, and I expect
it in return.

Also, I don't need Tony Marsh to defend my positions. He is the most
abrasive person I've never met. But his information is solid, and I
appreciate it when he does back me up. One thing that the LN's posting
here will not admit is that they also appreciate Tony's information, data,
resources, and experience. We'd all be doing a disservice in dismissing
his points.

Are you asking me that question? My answer is honestly: I do not know.

In your mind, apparently. Not in mine.

In fact, I actually DO think that. I've considered it for many years,
which is why I subscribe to a very few people in a very few key positions
of power, such as POTUS, FBI Director, and former CIA director. Those
three positions could conceive and implement a conspiracy, "doncha think"?

No, and you are vastly more intelligent that to expect me to accept that.
How many do you believe it would involve if, for example, the former CIA
director simply gave a nod to someone to retrieve the file and destroy it?
Maybe he knew where the file was and did it himself? A small army of ONE
to rid themselves of that pesky trail.

I have not suggested that they keep that fragment forever as evidence.
You're the best medical expert we have on this forum, IMO. But let me
counter this way: They took out the brain for examination at a date that
was later than the funeral. What would the disposition of the brain be
when that was done? What would have been the official method to deal with
this human remains subsequent to that examination? I asked this question a
couple of years ago, if I recall.

> You just can't buy that, can you?

Of course I can buy your scenario of Bobby ensuring it's disposal. I'm not
so rigid in my own theory that I couldn't believe that. Be careful that
your stereotyping of CT's doesn't cloud your opinion of my own personal
intellect.

Am I being unreasonable by suggesting

It is well within reason that you can suggest that. I cannot argue that
it's ridiculous, because it actually IS reasonable, John.

Whoa, there John. My theory has an additional shooter from above and
behind, likely Dal-Tex. I've got Oswald firing from the SL. I don't need
the GK shooter whatsoever, but I acknowledge the very credible arguments
therein.

Yes, and if you continue to subscribe to that, it may give you

Is the Z-film hard evidence? Here you go, and after watching my clip, can
you concede that my interpretation of a bullet impact to JFK's back at
precisely Z-230 is indeed possible?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&list=FL1eQXUDI5E_xRo-1SMrH42Q&v=g-hrPPy6fgI

It's hard evidence, and my interpretation is in terms of film and video is
as good as your interpretations of medical evidence. I give you this
credibility, and all I ask in return is consideration of possibility.

I just gave you one piece of hard evidence in form of Z230 to Z234,

Sorry about that one. Although if he has indeed seen the Fox set, I surely
want to know his ideas about what he saw. I think you would too.

He's entitled to that. Personally, I agree with the forensic evidence of
at least one headshot from above & behind. I should say, however, I have a
very difficult quandary about that pesky 6.5mm opacity on the A/P X-ray. I
have yet to read anyone's conjecture that seems reasonable about it. That
includes yours.

I'd be entering into a losing argument with you on those aspects. I can't,
so I won't.

I believe that Tony would not speculate that a blood clot has an abrasion
collar. Bullet wounds produce abrasion collars, not blood clots.

No, the official autopsy story was fuel in Humes' fireplace.

> Another blood clot?

A respectful question to you about autopsy notes, John: Did Humes transfer
the precise numbers and measurements that we see on the Boswell face sheet
to the protocol? If not, why not?

> Interesting that the HSCA saw the beveling inward of the skull around that

It was an entry defect they saw. I believe it.

Another respectful question, John: I thought the trail of opacities were
metallic in nature. Were they skull fragments? A combination of both,
maybe?

I can assuredly state that I was not in the conspiracy. I cannot vouch for
anyone else. Although I get that question quite frequently, or at least
speculation that the conspiracy absolutely had to involve those people. An
example of my point: You are a lowly, military lab tech. You may have a
General or Admiral take you aside and say something like, "We need those
slides to pin it on that little bastard Oswald, 'cause if you don't,
you'll be guilty in allowing him to get away with murdering our
president." If that was YOU, what would your options be?

I'm not sure about his opinion of the autopsists. Myself, I believe they
were competent doctors in their own respects. Now take the hypothetical
scenario I issued, and replace the lowly technician with Humes.

Well, now I do have to wonder about medical competence that is so exacting
that he had to "presume" forensic connection between the back wound, and
the front wound that he claimed to not know about. Call it what you will,
but Humes guessed about that connection, and I'm expected to accept that
without a body to confirm it, that the default opinion is connection? Not
a chance! The default should have been simply one shallow penetrating back
wound. He knew THAT much for certain, with the corpse right in front of
him.

> Also note that an enlargement of Tony's forehead entry shows it to look
> nothing like a bullet wound...that's a photo Tony doesn't like.

I don't like ANY of those autopsy photos. Dr. Rose's images of Oswald are
precisely what we should expect, complete with identifiers. There's a
right way, and then there's the Humes way.

But she was sitting to his left when "LHO" shot him.

If, however, the motorcade had traveled off the Stemmons onto Main (if the
luncheon site hadn't been changed from the Womens' Center to the Trade
Mart) Jackie would have been between the TSBD SN and JFK. What kind of
conspiracy would have planned for that shot? Was Larry, Moe and Curley in
charge of it?

You've got that right. So a conpiracy to assassinate the President of the
United States needed incredible luck to be successful?

But that doesn't make too much sense either. The more times they try the
more chances they'd have of being exposed...and once exposed security
would have buttoned up around JFK tighter than a drum and their (the
conspirators) aspirations for a different President would have vanished.

Gee, ya think he, like a whole lot of those who saw the wounds, honestly
believed there had been a shot from the front? I do. Remember, about 25
mostly medically trained eyewitnesses said they saw a BOH wound, including
two neurosurgeons and the autopsists.

And remember also the announcement on national TV that afternoon...the
fatal shot entered the throat and exited the backside? Burkley made
statements that indicated he was never sure if one bullet or two bullets
hit JFK in the head. It's likely that the information he had was that he
saw wounds on JFK that suggested there had been a conspiracy.

But you've taken that nugget as some strong ev. there was a conspiracy.
You really need better reason to spend the rest of your life chasing your
tail on this...or maybe you just enjoy doing that?

Yes, I appreciate his vast knowledge of the minutia in this case, but it's
his bottom line conclusions, like JFK wasn't hit anywhere in the
BOH......or that the autopsists missed seeing or covered up a bullet entry
in JFK's forehead, but still took a picture of it so peolpe like Tony
could see that they [the autopsists] covered it up or missed seeing
it....or that the defect in the rear scalp in the BOH photos is not a
bullet entry wound even though it has an abrasion collar, etc., etc.

I think just the medical evidence and ballistics alone prove JFK was shot
twice from above and behind and if just that evidence was planted or
falsified it would have taken several conspirators to pull that off...too
many to keep quiet all these years.

Not many, you're right, but there are tons of other things that would have
to have been done...and the no. of conspirators needed to do all that
keeps piling up....and you're smart enough to realize that means too many
to make any sense.

Thank you, but, not to be pompous, I believe there's no one on this planet
who's ever written about this case who knows it better. Yes, I've been
obsessed with it for over 12 years...and soon enough, thanks to my
publisher, this entire aspect of the case will be in print.

Technically it should have been secured for a long long time as evidence
by the justice department. But if I had been RFK it wouldn't have lasted
as long as it did out of my personal control or the control of a trusted
few. IOW, I would have done somehing respectfull with it and all the other
pieces of his body that were evidence.

Has there ever been in history a case where the brother of a murder victim
had so much power as RFK did in the JFK case?

Ok, I just get frustrated when you say I make good points but at the same

You're too hard to argue with...you're too darn polite...I don't have the
heart.

No need to respond...I think we're done.

I got what I wanted to say off my chest...I'll not bother you again.

Thanks for "listening", though.

Take care.

And again you are assuming what route they would have to take. You assume
they would have to go east on Main because they'd want to go through
Dealey Plaza. Fine. Put a sniper on the grassy knoll and one on the roof
of the Post Office Annex. Then pay all the witnesses to say that the shot
came from the TSBD. Maybe even fire a couple of shots from there.

At least take out the tires.
So what. How many times did the CIA try to kill Castro? How many times
did the OAS try to kill de Gaulle?
No one said that the autopsy doctors intentionally wanted to record the
bullet hole in the forehead. They were too stupid to notice it.
Why not? Just like the Castro plots.

How many is small enough to keep quiet? As Trafficante said, "Three
people can keep a secret if two of them are dead."
How many people kept the Castro plots secret for how many years.
Same with Operation Mongoose? Same with Operation Northwoods.
How many years do we have to keep things from WWI Top Secret?
100 years, 300 years? 3,000 years?

There are two possibilities, each of which would take different paths. If
Oswald was somebody's agent his handler might only contact him less than
once a month, certainly not every day. If he were a sleeper agent he would
not be contacted at all until the moment he was needed. He'd be having
lunch one day and then receive a phone call and assigned to kill someone
that afternoon or night.

Silly. He ROUTINELY left the cash for Marina. That second wallet was his
bank account.

He only left the ring when Marina refused to move back in with him. It was
meant as a signal that the separation would be permanent.

A good intelligence agency has hundreds of people on file that they could
use for a patsy. They had my father's name on file and just called him up
and told him to be at a certain place at a certain time to use him for a
decoy since the opposition already knew he was an agent.

Given the way this country operates in secret maybe they found the
conspirators within hours and executed them all.
I don't think the conspirators need to be that high up. Helms organized
the Castro plots entirely within his own little department. It was not a
top down operation.
Considering that it was evidence and it was kept in the National Archives
it should have been preserved just like the windshield, or the clothing or
the Zapruder film.

If someone decided to not store it at the National Archives there are
brain collections where it could be donated to. Such as Harvard.
Einstein's brain was preserved in 1955 and is still being studied today.
Supposedly if anyone was telling the truth President Kennedy's brain was
fixed in formalin and coronally sliced less than two weeks after his
death. I personally believe his brain is still being preserved in private
hands to keep it safe from government hands.

He has at least two trails of opacities. The metal fragments we can all
see in the top of the head and then skull fragments which only he can see
in the bottom of the head. Then he claims both divegent trails were caused
by the same bullet.

Not sure. Was it targeted ONLY at Liberals? Is there any way to modify

No, he did not say there was ONE exit. He saw the semi-circular defect

"An" exit not "the" exit.
There could be an additional exit just forward of the coronal suture.

Oh, so now you're calling it a "circular" defect even though the autopsy
doctors supposedly measured it as being 15 x 6 mm. And you call that
cicular? You can't even keep your cover up straight. So which of these two
figures is the circular one and which is the oval one?

It's sad that you've spent most of your life studying this case and still
are ignorant about the medical evidence.

No wonder you're a CT, you came to conclusions without knowing the
important evidence.

Don't you get tired of demonstrating to everyone how little you know about
the medical evidence? And not to sound pompous but when I say "everyone"
that means a lot more individuals here than you think--because many read
my posts to learn things about the medical evidence]

The FPP and the autopsists agreed there was only one principal exit!

They determined that because they extrapolated from the portion of the
circular defect (at the corner of the late-rriving skull piece where the
metallicresidue was) forward of the coronal suture to estimate its
diameter. Their estimate was appx. 2.5 cm...too large for there to have
been another exit of any significat size. The defect (your imaginary
entry) above his right eye was significant....IWO too large for another
exit!

Take notes to remember this stuff...otherwise you'll invaribly keep
repeating your mistakes.

And you must have stopped studying it a long time ago...either that or
your memory is deplorable. Bottom line is that you lack a clear
understanding of this aspect of the case...and you constantly, ad nauseam,
prove that to us.

So, Marsh, if the defect in the scalp in the BOH photos is not a blood
clot......and it has an abrasion collar....and the autopsists reported
seeing microscopic bone fragments in the tissue surrounding it....and it's
centered in the photo titled missile wound in occipital scalp, then what
the bleep is it Marsh????????

But you can't admit it's an entry because you're committed to your
ultra-ridiculous off-the-charts wacky theory that JFK wasn't hit anywhere
in the BOH...aren't you?

LOL!

You've painted yourself in a corner...again.

That's it, you've worn out my patience....JFK medical evidence school's
out for you...you flunked and your silly insinuations and comments are
holding up the progress of the rest of the class!

Pay attention and read for comprehension:

The defect in the #####SKULL##### was circular (6-7 mm in diameter
according to Humes)...Boswell testified that the top hemisphere was in a
bone piece that came out when they reflected the scalp. That left a
"semicircular beveled defect" (7HSCA, para 300) along the skull edge as
seen in F8.

The defect in the #####SCALP##### when they photographed it was 15 x 6 mm.

You're dismissed and you are set back two grades to medical evidence
pre-school.
