JFK and the Unspeakable: Why He Died and Why It Matters
Raymond
Why does it matter? The death of JFK remains a critical turning point
in our history. Those who caused his death were targeting not just a
man but a vision -- a vision of peace.....It is also the story of the
designated patsy, Lee Harvey Oswald.
Oliver Stone: Military-Intelligence Complex Killed JFK

JFK and the Unspeakable
Two reviews of James W. Douglass’ book, JFK and the Unspeakable, one
by Oliver Stone, published Friday, July 24, on HuffPo, the other by
Nick Anez on Amazon:
JFK and the Unspeakable
The murder of President Kennedy was a seminal event for me and for
millions of Americans. It changed the course of history. It was a
crushing blow to our country and to millions of people around the
world. It put an abrupt end to a period of a misunderstood idealism,
akin to the spirit of 1989 when the Soviet bloc to began to thaw and
2008, when our new American President was fairly elected.
Today, more than 45 years later, profound doubts persist about how
President Kennedy was killed and why. My film JFK was a metaphor for
all those doubts, suspicions and unanswered questions. Now an
extraordinary new book offers the best account I have read of this
tragedy and its significance. That book is James Douglass’s JFK and
the Unspeakable: Why He Died and Why It Matters. It is a book that
deserves the attention of all Americans; it is one of those rare books
that, by helping us understand our history, has the power to change
it.
The subtitle sums up Douglass’s purpose: Why He Died and Why it
Matters. In his beautifully written and exhaustively researched
treatment, Douglass lays out the “motive” for Kennedy’s assassination.
Simply, he traces a process of steady conversion by Kennedy from his
origins as a traditional Cold Warrior to his determination to pull the
world back from the edge of destruction.

And We Are All Mortal
Nick Anez | Amazon.com | June 8, 2008
In James W. Douglass’ outstanding new book, “JFK and the Unspeakable,”
the author explains the title in his introduction. Coined by spiritual
writer Thomas Merton, The Unspeakable refers to “an evil whose depth
and deceit seemed to go beyond the capacity of words to describe.”
Regarding the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, the
Unspeakable succeeded due to deniability by the nation’s citizens of
the horrifying truth of the event and to plausible deniability by the
government agencies responsible for the murder. (Vincent Bugliosi’s
recent fictional paperweight is a perfect example of the plausible
deniability that allows the Unspeakable to thrive.)
Many excellent books have proven that the assassination of JFK was the
result of a conspiracy. Douglass verifies the certainty of the
conspiracy and, as the subtitle of the book states, explains “Why He
Died and Why It Matters.” He scrutinizes the historical facts
surrounding the assassination, from the creation of the CIA to the
gradual obliteration of the freedoms upon which this nation was
founded.
This book is primarily the story of John F. Kennedy who changes from a
Cold Warrior to an altruistic leader willing to risk his life to
ensure that the world’s children will not become victims of a nuclear
catastrophe. Equal time is spent on JFK’s presidency as on the
assassination but one of the many rewards of this book is the author’s
capacity to show the relationship between his policies and his death.
And the book is a tragedy because it gradually becomes obvious that
each step he makes toward peace steadily increases the hatred of his
enemies who will eventually betray him.
It is also the story of the designated patsy, Lee Harvey Oswald. Moved
around the country like a pawn by government agencies (as was the
second “Oswald”), he was being set up as the scapegoat. Enter some
despicable characters, including David Atlee Philips, James Hosty and,
of course, Michael and Ruth Paine. Simultaneously, the Soviet Union
was being set up as the evil empire behind the assassination, along
with its satellite Cuba.
Douglass credibly illustrates the origin of the Crime of the Century.
During President Truman’s administration, the CIA was empowered to be
a paramilitary organization with unlimited powers. Truman’s successor,
President Eisenhower, fell out of favor with the CIA when he planned a
summit meeting with Soviet Premier Khrushchev. This was cancelled
after a U.S. spy plane crashed in Russia. Eisenhower had reportedly
ordered such flights cancelled and had his suspicions about who had
ruined his peace plan. He subsequently issued his warning about the
“military industrial complex” in his farewell address. But he didn’t
defy “this conjunction of an immense military establishment and a
large arms industry.” He left that task to his successor, JFK.
The Bay of Pigs invasion of Cuba was planned by the CIA to regain
control of the island and to re-open the casinos for organized crime.
President Kennedy refused to provide air support for the Cuban brigade
because he knew that he had been lied to by the Joint Chiefs of Staff
and by the CIA; the invasion had been designed to fail without U.S.
support but they hadn’t told this to JFK who refused to fall into
their trap. During the Cuban Missile Crisis, JFK once again enraged
the CIA and the Joint Chiefs by resisting their tremendous pressure on
him to take military action which would have led to nuclear war.
Following that crisis, JFK became intent on ending the Cold War by
establishing a peaceful relationship with the Soviet Union. However,
many CIA and Pentagon personnel believed that it was better to be
“dead than red” and that it was preferable to destroy civilization
rather than let the Communists rule. They also knew that war generated
billions of dollars into the arms industry. As a result, they would
repeatedly subvert the President’s policies and isolate him within his
own government. Enter some more despicable characters: Richard
Bissell, Charles Cabell, Henry Cabot Lodge, Lyman Lemnitzer, Curtis
LeMay and perhaps the most contemptible of all, Allen Dulles.
Ironically, JFK learned to trust Khrushchev more than people within
his own government.
At American University on June 10, 1963, JFK spoke about his desire
for world peace. He communicated his resolve to form a new
relationship with Khrushchev. He spoke about the necessity of a
pursuit toward disarmament. He related his intentions to establish a
Nuclear Test Ban Treaty. He acknowledged his country’s past faults and
recognized the Russian people as wanting peace as much as the American
people. “And we are all mortal,” he stated. Though this extremely
important speech was ignored in the United States, it was disseminated
throughout the Soviet Union, per order of Khrushchev, who was prepared
to respond favorably to JFK’s peace initiative. The speech also
certified JFK’s death warrant. With so many powerful enemies opposing
his policies and hating him, JFK didn’t have a chance as he was being
maneuvered into the crossfire in Dallas.
President Kennedy was aware of the power of his enemies and he knew
the dangers facing him. But he persevered and mandated that all U.S.
personnel would be withdrawn from Vietnam; he was determined to never
send in combat troops even if this meant defeat. He also refused to
intervene militarily in Laos. He exchanged private letters with
Khrushchev, which infuriated the CIA, and secretly initiated plans to
attain rapproachement with Cuba, which further incensed the Agency.
Cuba’s Fidel Castro, whom the CIA hated as intensely as it hated
Kennedy, was equally eager to begin an American-Cuba dialogue. In
fact, Castro was meeting with a JFK representative when the President
was murdered. JFK died a martyr and the forces of evil that killed him
also killed his vision of peace.
Lyndon Johnson, the CIA’s ally, assumed the presidency. He cancelled
talks with Khrushchev and refused Castro’s pleas to continue the
dialogue. He reversed JFK’s withdrawal plan from Vietnam as well as
his plan to neutralize Laos. The military industrial complex took
control of the country. The policy of plausible deniability led the
way to assassinations of foreign leaders, the overthrowing of foreign
governments and horrors committed all over the globe. If JFK had not
been murdered, we would not have had the prolongation of the Cold War,
the Vietnam War, Watergate, the purported War on Terror and the steady
moral deterioration of America. Interestingly, one month after JFK’s
assassination, President Truman wrote an article for The Washington
Post cautioning about the threat of the CIA taking over America.
The author meticulously examines the evidence and draws conclusions
which ring with unassailable truth: (1) The CIA coordinated and
implemented he assassination of President Kennedy, an act of treason
which destroyed democracy in the U.S. (2) The Warren Commission was
created to propagate lies to conceal the truth from the American
people. (3)There has been a continued cover-up by successive
administrations and their stooges in the mass media. (4)The murder of
JFK is directly related to the current domination of the American
people by powerful oppressors within a shadow government that will
continue to insist that only sustained war can keep the country safe
from its enemies, never admitting that they themselves are the supreme
evil.
This is an exceptional book that will be used by future historians to
determine the truth about the assassination and how it changed
America. And it will also be used to honor John F. Kennedy as a
courageous president who believed in doing God’s work on earth. In
doing so, he came into conflict with the Unspeakable and his life was
extinguished.

RFK to JFK: “You’re going to be assassinated”
LBJ’s phone call to Parkland Hospital
Immediately after Oswald was shot by Ruby, LBJ called Parkland
Hospital and demanded that a “deathbed confession” be taken from
Oswald.
The account was originally revealed by Dr. Charles Crenshaw, who was
subjected to ridicule, but who was later vindicated by Parkland’s
Chief Switchboard Operator, Phyllis Bartlett.
Did LBJ “let” JFK die ?
Did Johnson’s desire for the Presidency and his foreknowledge of the
assassination result in his “allowing” JFK to die ?

Just one question. If the plan was to set up the Soviet Union as the
"evil empire behind the assassination, along with its satellite
Cuba.", why is it a lone gunman ended up taking the blame?

The Plan - cover story was to blame Cuba so LBJ would have an excuse to
invade. But instead, LBJ recognized that the Cuban connection was behind
the assassination, and used the conspiracy, if uncovered, to convince Earl
Warren to take the Commission and determine the assassination was the
result of a Lone Nut in order to avoid WWIII.
That's LBJ's excuse, as recited in his conversations with Warren and other
Commissioners.
Read Douglas' book, its all in there.
Of course if JFK was killed by a Lone Nut Texas Yahoo for no reason, there
was no reason for him dying and none of it matters.
Get It?

innocent acts of mischief-making really amounted to a calculated design of
sabotage conceived of and organized by The Man in the Yellow Hat (and how
and why George was set up as the designated patsy).

Public opinion polls taken at the time showed that most Americans accepted
the conclusions of the WCR.
The WCR -- or even the WC when it was first formed -- didn't please "right
wing fanatics" at all.
Here is an example of what they were writing at the time:
http://www.revilo-oliver.com/rpo/Marxmanship1.html
But conspiracy theory is mostly a byproduct of popular culture (right-
wing groups such as the Birch Society and the Minutemen were always going
up against its grain, not with it) and popular culture is left- wing, not
right-wing, and as a result, mainstream liberals have moved far far to the
left since 1964.
Oliver's assertion that JFK was a member of the Communist Conspiracy and
that he was assassinated by "the young Bolshevik" because of some rift
within that conspiracy must have raised quite a few hackles in 1964.
Today, a mainstream liberal can accuse a Republican president of mass
murder and advocate having him drawn and quartered -- and popular culture
and the opinion that it controls won't even blink.

So the short answer is the conspirators fucked it up. They wanted to blame
the Soviets and Cuba to trigger a confrontation but they didn't figure on
LBJ covering up their conspiracy with his own conspiracy. I hate when that
happens. Why didn't they just knock off LBJ too and blame that on the
Soviets. Then they would have got John McCormack and he was such a senile
old geezer they could have got him to go along with just about anything
they wanted.

The theory behind this book is plausible but I'm going to be the devil's

Gerry,
If James Douglas is correct, and that JFK wasn't killed by a lone nut
psycho, but it was a coup and those who killed him took over the
government and changed policies, then we know who they are and the
evidence should be there to prosecute them today.
I think the evidence is still there and since there's no statute of
limitations on murder, those responsible for the assassination, the murder
of Tippit and the cover up should be brought to justice by the method
described in the Constitution - by a Grand Jury investigation and
indictments.

What policies were “changed”? None, which shoots this theory all to
hell.

Hi Bill,
Sorry I missed this before.
LBJ would have been removed from the ticket for the next election over the
Billy Sol Estes and Bobby Baker scandals, even though he had blackmailed
JFK by dragging him into it with the girls.
So instead of getting kicked off the ticket, he kicked JFK off the ticket,
so that was one change, and the policy changes followed immediately,
beginning with the end of the Congressional investigaitons into the
scandals.
The major policies that LBJ changed were in regards to the military in
Cuba and Vietnam, and ignoring JFK's National Security Action Memo
ordering NASA to cooperate with the Soviets in going to the moon. He also
ended the detante and the negotiations on the reductions of nukes that
Obama only just now got back on track.
Since most of the top advisors - Bundy, MacNamara, Dillon, et al. were
either hawks or Republicans, LBJ didn't have to change their views, he
just had to stop the JFK initiatives.
The biggest policy change LBJ brought about was the administrative ability
to shut down Congressional and Judicial investigations into civil rights
murders and political assassinations, so there would be no repercussions
for the persons actually responsible for the murders of JFK, RFK, MLK, and
dozens of civil rights murders and political killings (ie Henry Marshal)
for which the killers still roam free.
All the best,
Bill Kelly

Who fired the rifle that killed John Kennedy may be almost irrelevant.
What is more important is "Who wanted Kennedy dead and why".
Eventually, the world will find out that the very government that
Kennedy was supposed to be commander of was instrumental in disposing
of him and his plans for the nation and the American people.
"President Kennedy was aware of the power of his enemies and he knew
the dangers facing him. But he persevered and mandated that all U.S.
personnel would be withdrawn from Vietnam; he was determined to never
send in combat troops even if this meant defeat".
In 1963, JFK was not the man from Camelot that describes him today. In
reality, he was a hated man. hated by the people who Eisenhower warned
us about, the military industrial complex. And he had to go. And, he
went and the people who hated him went on with their business as
usual.
In America, no one, including a president, can threaten the
intelligence agencies, the military and the Pentagon, the Federal
Reserve, the oil companies and their oil depletion allowance, the
Israel lobby, and other corporations that depend on war for their
economic survival. Indeed, Kennedy was trouble and was destined to be
in front of the TSBD in Dallas at 12:30 on 11-22-63. And, the result
provided a sigh of relief to those who eventually benefited by his
demise. while at the same time, thousands of Americans died and
millions of Vietnamese suffered at the hands of honest heros who
believed in their lying political leaders. And the CIA, the FBI and
Hoover, the oil companies and the Federal Reserve stayed in business.
Bon voyage is a French phrase borrowed into English meaning,
literally, "good journey", and usually translated as meaning "have a
good trip". ...Bon voyage John Kennedy.
One of the most eminent figures in Texas and the oil industry appeared
one day in the Cokesbury Bookstore, a Methodist bookshop in Dallas, to
autograph a book that he had published himself. This man rates only
seven lines in Who's Who: "Haroldson Lafayette Hunt, oil producer;
Vandalia, Ill.; ed. pub. Schs; m. Lynda Bunker (died May 7, 1955);
married 2nd Ruth Ray Weight, December 1957. Oil producer, Hunt Oil Co.
Established Facts Forum, a foundation producing radio and TV programs
relating to nat. issues. Democrat. Address: 4009 W. Lawther Dr.,
Dallas."
Seven lines isn't much for a man who was, in 1963, was the richest man
in the world, (14) with a fortune conservatively estimated at $4
billion. When you get into those kind of figures, you are no longer
talking about wealth, but about power.
For Hunt, Kennedy's assault on the tax privileges enjoyed by the oil
industry were "criminal offenses" against "the American system.
Depletion allowances are necessary for irreplaceable resources. The
increased net income for the Government from their elimination would
finance the Government 3 or 4 days per year . . ." he declares,
adding, "We are losing the right to keep a fair share of the money we
earn and a fair share of the profits we make."
FAST FORWARD: At 12:23 on November 22, from his office on the 7th
floor of the Mercantile Building, Haroldson Lafayette Hunt watched
John Kennedy ride towards Dealey Plaza, where fate awaited him at
12:30. A few minutes later, escorted by six men in two cars, Hunt left
the center of Dallas without even stopping by his house.
At that very moment; General Walker was in a plane between New Orleans
and Shreveport. He joined Mr. Hunt in one of his secret hideaways
across the Mexican border. There they remained for a month, protected
by personal guards, under the impassive eyes of the FBI. It was not
until Christmas that Hunt, Walker and their party returned to Dallas.
In February, 1964, Elgin E. Crull, Dallas City Manager, declared, "The
vast majority of people in Dallas were affected by the murder of the
President as they would have been by a sudden, violent death in their
own family." But he added, "When life resumed its regular rhythm,
there was general agreement that the actions of two maverick gunmen --
the alleged assassin and his slayer -- would not impede the dynamic
growth of Big D."

When Ruby shot Oswald right at police headquarters I think the public
began to realize even then that something was horribly wrong with the
Kennedy assassination. Or at least the public should have realized it.
Ruby shooting Oswald makes no sense whatsoever. There is only on
explanation for this event which is it was done to hide the real truth.
But what could anyone do ? I guess the kids at Kent State tried to do
something.
All those things you said about reviewing the evidence and questioning
people in court was tried in the 1970s I think. Those proceedings hit a
brick wall of lies and secrecy. That was relatively soon after the
assassination. Today this would be an even more hopeless endeavor unless
the security agencies in the government are willing to come out and admit
what really happened.
Whatever hard physical evidence existed was destroyed almost immediately I
think except for the video that miraculously survived and made it into the
public domain. My understanding is JFK's brain disappeared soon after the
assassination and nobody knows where it is but I could be wrong. It
should also be very easy with today's technology to tell for example that
the photograph of Oswald holding the rifle in the back yard was modified
somehow.
I like following along in these discussions but how can anyone rely on
evidence that is controlled by the government ? Documents, reports, etc..
All of those things can be forged and manipulated. Bugliosi comes out
with a book that is based on evidence provided by the very people who
committed the crime.
But even if this assassination can be proven in various ways do you think
the government could ever come out and admit it was a conspiracy ? I
don't think they could ever admit that.
For one thing to admit that would invalidate the entire Viet Nam war.
Can you imagine the law suits that would result from the wrongful deaths
of 60,000 people and the injuring of countless more ? In this litigation
crazy country this would create a legal quagmire that would last for 100
years and bankrupt the entire United States government. It might even lead
to riots in the streets and people attempting to violently overthrow the
government who knows. The implications of an admission like that would be
far reaching and unpredictable.
Many countries today are run by criminals and killers. Russia. Mexico.
China. They don't even bother to try to hide their crimes too well.
Those who are in power rule with an iron fist.
In America we have laws that people think are upheld. So they had to kill
Kennedy in a more secretive way to get back into Viet Nam and line their
pockets.
I suspect the only place where the truth about this will ever be told is
Hollywood.
There's a lot of secrets out there with the government besides the Kennedy
assassination even today.
The flying saucer issue is one. That seems to involve things which would
shock the world if we ever found out.
People think the HAARP device up in Alaska could super heat the
atmosphere, create giant earthquakes, and destroy the world.
Who knows what else is out there.

or part of a conspiracy. It was a senseless act by an angry man. It
would make no sense for any alleged conspirators to have Ruby shoot
Oswald to silence him because then somebody would need to silence Ruby
and then that person would have to be silenced, and then that
person...etc. etc. etc. It also makes no sense that somebody would try
to silence Oswald with a single shot to the gut with a .38. More often
than not, a person would survive such a wound. Oswald died only
because Ruby happened to hit a major artery. One inch either way and
Oswald would likely have survived such a wound and would be royally
pissed off. The shooting of Oswald has all the earmarks of an
impulsive act, not a carefully planned hit.

The old the-dog-ate-my-evidence excuse for why there is not evidence
of a conspiracy. There was nothing miraculous about the survival of
the Z-film. A number of copies were made. Some were kept in the
archives. Time-Life held the commercial rights to the film and were
free to release it to the public at any time they chose. They made the
decision not to make it public which was their right.

And the Federal Reserve was saved.
Don't dare fool with the Federal Reserve , or else.....
I have a rendezvous with Death
On some scarred slope of battered hill,
When Spring comes round again this year
And the first meadow-flowers appear
"I Have a Rendezvous with Death"
by Alan Seeger.
President John F.Kennedy,
The Federal Reserve
And Executive Order 11110
From The Final Call, Vol. 15, No.6, On January 17, 1996
http://www.john-f-kennedy.net/executiveorder11110.htm
On June 4, 1963, a little known attempt was made to strip the Federal
Reserve Bank of its power to loan money to the government at interest.
On that day President John F. Kennedy signed Executive Order No. 11110
that returned to the U.S. government the power to issue currency,
without going through the Federal Reserve. Mr. Kennedy's order gave
the Treasury the power "to issue silver certificates against any
silver bullion, silver, or standard silver dollars in the Treasury."
This meant that for every ounce of silver in the U.S. Treasury's
vault, the government could introduce new money into circulation. In
all, Kennedy brought nearly $4.3 billion in U.S. notes into
circulation. The ramifications of this bill are enormous.
With the stroke of a pen, Mr. Kennedy was on his way to putting the
Federal Reserve Bank of New York out of business. If enough of these
silver certificats were to come into circulation they would have
eliminated the demand for Federal Reserve notes. This is because the
silver certificates are backed by silver and the Federal Reserve notes
are not backed by anything. Executive Order 11110 could have prevented
the national debt from reaching its current level, because it would
have given the gevernment the ability to repay its debt without going
to the Federal Reserve and being charged interest in order to create
the new money. Executive Order 11110 gave the U.S. the ability to
create its own money backed by silver.
After Mr. Kennedy was assassinated just five months later, no more
silver certificates were issued......A number
of "Kennedy bills" were indeed issued - the author has a five dollar
bill in his possession with the heading "United States Note" - but
were quickly withdrawn after Kennedy's death. According to information
from the Library of the Comptroller of the Currency, Executive Order
11,110 remains in effect today, although successive administrations
beginning with that of President Lyndon Johnson apparently have simply
ignored it and instead returned to the practice of paying interest on
Federal Reserve notes. Today we continue to use Federal Reserve Notes,
and the deficit is at an all-time high

You mean that up until then, the public felt that everything was going
right with the Kennedy assassination?

It made plenty of sense to Ruby and to people who felt as he did.

Ruby shot Oswald -- among other things -- to prove that he was a Jew
with guts. You think maybe that the real truth was that Ruby was a
cowardly Zoroastrian?

About Kennedy's assassination? What are you talking about? I think
that the National Guard showed remarkable restraint in leaving the
scene with only four dead hippies.

JFK's brain disappeared shortly before the Bay of Pigs. However, his
assassination has indeed caused a lot of people to lose their heads
and nobody knows where they are.

Then I guess you're stuck.

You're making a lot of statements that don't have any foundation to
them at all.
Hippies at Kent State responding to JFK's assassination. An
explanation of JFK's death that would "invalidate the Vietnam War".
Are you sure that there isn't also a connection between JFK's death
and the prevalence of unlicensed dogs roaming the street, due to a
lack of responsible spaying and neutering?
> Can you imagine the law suits that would result from the wrongful deaths

There must have been thousands of lawsuits initiated over the Vietnam
War and over other wars. I fail to see what JFK's death has to do
with them or why a conspiratorial explanation of his death would need
to be a necessary element of them.

Holy shit! Don't you read the papers? The entire United States
government IS bankrupt! So are state and local governments. It's due to
policies advocated by those who think that we can print and spend our way
into prosperity. And those tend to be people who are sympathetic to JFK
conspiracy theory.

There ARE riots in the streets and lunatics already HAVE overthrown
the government. The lunatics have won. How are they doing? They
seem to be showing less restraint than the National Guard did at Kent
State.

RE: For one thing to admit that would invalidate the entire Viet Nam
war.
The war was a lie from before the Gulf of Tonkin until its end. It
was about oil just as Iraq and Afghanistan are about oil for American
oil owners.(and Iraq oil for Irrael.)
The Observer
By Steven Scheer
LONDON (Reuters) - Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said he
expected an oil pipeline from Iraq to Israel to be reopened in the
near future after being closed when Israel became a state in 1948.
"It won't be long when you will see Iraqi oil flowing to Haifa," the
port city in northern Israel, Netanyahu told a group of British
investors, declining to give a timetable.
"It is just a matter of time until the pipeline is reconstituted and
Iraqi oil will flow to the Mediterranean."
Netanyahu later told Reuters the government was in the early stages of
looking into the possibility of reopening the pipeline, which during
the British Mandate sent oil from Mosul to Haifa via Jordan.
Shalom:
"It's not a pipe-dream," Netanyahu said.
When Jews started to invade Palestine in 1945, Syria shut down its
branch to Tripoli. Iraq shut down all oil from from Kirkuk to Haifa.
At that point, most of northern Iraq's oil went to the Turkish port
city of Gihan, which was OK with the US, since Turkey was a US ally
against the USSR. Turkey collected transit fees for this oil. However,
today, Israel calls the shots for America in the Middle east and oil
will now flow to Haifa.
Under a 1975 Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) the US guaranteed all
Israel's oil needs in the event of a crisis. This MoU is quietly
renewed every five years. It commits US taxpayers to maintain a
strategic US reserve for Israel, equivalent to $3 billion in 2002
dollars. Special legislation was enacted to exempt Israel from
restrictions on oil exports from the US. Moreover, the US government
agreed to divert oil from the US, even in case of oil shortages in the
US. The US government also guaranteed delivery of oil in US tankers if
commercial shippers become unable or unwilling to carry oil from the
US to Israel.

TESTIMONY
BY JOHN J. MARESCA
VICE PRESIDENT, INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS
UNOCAL CORPORATION
TO
HOUSE COMMITTEE ON INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS
SUBCOMMITTEE ON ASIA AND THE PACIFIC
Three issues concerning this region, its resources and U.S. policy
FEBRUARY 12, 1998
WASHINGTON, D.C.
Mr. Chairman, I am John Maresca, Vice President, International
Relations, of Unocal Corporation.
Unocal is one of the world's leading energy resource and project
development companies. Our activities are focused on three major
regions -- Asia, Latin America and the U.S. Gulf of Mexico. In Asia
and the U.S. Gulf of Mexico, we are a major oil and gas producer. I
appreciate your invitation to speak here today. I believe these
hearings are important and timely, and Icongratulate you for focusing
on Central Asia oil and gas reserves and the role they play in shaping
U.S. policy.
Today we would like to focus on three issues concerning this region,
its resources and U.S. policy:
The need for multiple pipeline routes for Central Asian oil and gas.
The need for U.S. support for international and regional efforts to
achieve balanced and lasting political settlements within Russia,
other newly independent states and in AFGHANISTAN..
The need for structured assistance to encourage economic reforms and
the development of appropriate investment climates in the region. In
this regard, we specifically support repeal or removal of Section 907
of the Freedom Support Act.
For more than 2,000 years, Central Asia has been a meeting ground
between Europe and Asia, the site of ancient east-west trade routes
collectively called the Silk Road and, at various points in history, a
cradle of scholarship, culture and power. It is also a region of truly
enormous natural resources, which are revitalizing cross-border
trade,creating positive political interaction and stimulating regional
cooperation. These resources have the potential to recharge the
economies of neighboring countries and put entire regions on the road
to prosperity.
About 100 years ago, the international oil industry was born in the
Caspian/Central Asian region with the discovery of oil. In the
intervening years, under Soviet rule, the existence of the region's
oil and gas resources was generally known, but only partially or
poorly developed.
As we near the end of the 20 th century, history brings us full
circle. With political barriers falling, Central Asia and the Caspian
are once again attracting people from around the globe who are
seeking ways to develop and deliver its bountiful energy resources to
the markets of the world.
The Caspian region contains tremendous untapped hydrocarbon reserves,
much of them located in the Caspian Sea basin itself. Proven natural
gas reserves within Azerbaijan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan and
Kazakhstan equal more than 236 trillion cubic feet. The region's total
oil reserves may reach more than 60 billion barrels of oil -- enough
to service Europe's oil needs for 11 years. Some estimates are as high
as 200 billion barrels. In 1995, the region was producing only
870,000
barrels per day (44 million tons per year [Mt/y]).
By 2010, Western companies could increase production to about 4.5
million barrels a day (Mb/d) -- an increase of more than 500 percent
in only 15 years. If this occurs, the region would represent about
five percent of the world's total oil production, and almost 20
percent of oil produced among non-OPEC countries.
One major problem has yet to be resolved: how to get the region's vast
energy resources to the markets where they are needed. There are few, if
any, other areas of the world where there can be such a dramatic increase
in the supply of oil and gas to the world market. The solution seems
simple: build a "new" Silk Road. Implementing this solution, however, is
far from simple. The risks are high, but so are the rewards.
Finding and Building Routes to World Markets
One of the main problems is that Central Asia is isolated. The region
is bounded on the north by the Arctic Circle, on the east and west by
vast land distances, and on the south by a series of natural obstacles
-- mountains and seas -- as well as political obstacles, such as
conflict zones or sanctioned countries.
This means that the area's natural resources are landlocked, both
geographically and politically. Each of the countries in the Caucasus and
Central Asia faces difficult political challenges. Some have unsettled
wars or latent conflicts. Others have evolving systems where the laws --
and even the courts -- are dynamic and changing. Business commitments can
be rescinded without warning, or they can be displaced by new geopolitical
realities.
In addition, a chief technical obstacle we face in transporting oil is the
region's existing pipeline infrastructure. Because the region's pipelines
were constructed during the Moscow-centered Soviet period, they tend to
head north and west toward Russia. There are no connections to the south
and east.
Depending wholly on this infrastructure to export Central Asia oil is
not practical. Russia currently is unlikely to absorb large new
quantities of "foreign" oil, is unlikely to be a significant market
for energy in the next decade, and lacks the capacity to deliver it to
other markets.
Certainly there is no easy way out of Central Asia. If there are to be
other routes, in other directions, they must be built.
Two major energy infrastructure projects are seeking to meet this
challenge. One, under the aegis of the Caspian Pipeline Consortium, or
CPC, plans to build a pipeline west from the Northern Caspian to the
Russian Black Sea port of Novorossisk. From Novorossisk, oil from this
line would be transported by tanker through the Bosphorus to the
Mediterranean and world markets.
The other project is sponsored by the Azerbaijan International
Operating Company (AIOC), a consortium of 11 foreign oil companies
including four American companies -- Unocal, Amoco, Exxon and
Pennzoil. It will follow one or both of two routes west from Baku. One
line will angle north and cross the North Caucasus to Novorossisk. The
other route would cross Georgia and extend to a shipping terminal on
the Black Sea port of Supsa. This second route may be extended west
and south across Turkey to the Mediterranean port of Ceyhan.
But even if both pipelines were built, they would not have enough
total capacity to transport all the oil expected to flow from the
region in the future; nor would they have the capability to move it to
the right markets. Other export pipelines must be built.
Unocal believes that the central factor in planning these pipelines
should be the location of the future energy markets that are most
likely to need these new supplies. Just as Central Asia was the
meeting ground between Europe and Asia in centuries past, it is again
in a unique position to potentially service markets in both of these
regions -- if export routes to these markets can be built. Let's take
a look at some of the potential markets.
Western Europe
Western Europe is a tough market. It is characterized by high prices
for oil products, an aging population, and increasing competition from
natural gas. Between 1995 and 2010, we estimate that demand for oil
will increase from 14.1 Mb/d (705 Mt/y) to 15.0 Mb/d (750 Mt/y), an
average growth rate of only 0.5 percent annually. Furthermore, the
region is already amply supplied from fields in the Middle East, North
Sea, Scandinavia and Russia. Although there is perhaps room for some
of Central Asia's oil, the Western European market is unlikely to be
able to absorb all of the production from the Caspian region.
Central and Eastern Europe
Central and Eastern Europe markets do not look any better. Although
there is increased demand for oil in the region's transport sector,
natural gas is gaining strength as a competitor. Between 1995 and
2010, demand for oil is expected to increase by only half a million
barrels per day, from 1.3 Mb/d (67 Mt/y) to 1.8 Mb/d (91.5 Mt/y). Like
Western Europe, this market is also very competitive. In addition to
supplies of oil from the North Sea, Africa and the Middle East, Russia
supplies the majority of the oil to this region.
The Domestic NIS Market
The growth in demand for oil also will be weak in the Newly
Independent States (NIS). We expect Russian and other NIS markets to
increase demand by only 1.2 percent annually between 1997 and 2010.
Asia/Pacific
In stark contrast to the other three markets, the Asia/Pacific region
has a rapidly increasing demand for oil and an expected significant
increase in population. Prior to the recent turbulence in the various
Asian/Pacific economies, we anticipated that this region's demand for
oil would almost double by 2010. Although the short-term increase in
demand will probably not meet these expectations, Unocal stands
behind its long-term estimates.
Energy demand growth will remain strong for one key reason: the
region's population is expected to grow by 700 million people by
2010.
It is in everyone's interests that there be adequate supplies for
Asia's increasing energy requirements. If Asia's energy needs are not
satisfied, they will simply put pressure on all world markets,
driving prices upwards everywhere.
The key question is how the energy resources of Central Asia can be
made available to satisfy the energy needs of nearby Asian markets.
There are two possible solutions -- with several variations.
Export Routes
East to China: Prohibitively Long?
One option is to go east across China. But this would mean
constructing a pipeline of more than 3,000 kilometers to central China
-- as well as a 2,000-kilometer connection to reach the main
population centers along the coast. Even with these formidable
challenges, China National Petroleum Corporation is considering
building a pipeline east from Kazakhstan to Chinese markets.
Unocal had a team in Beijing just last week for consultations with the
Chinese. Given China's long-range outlook and its ability to
concentrate resources to meet its own needs, China is almost certain
to build such a line. The question is what will the costs of
transporting oil through this pipeline be and what net back will the
producers receive.
South to the Indian Ocean: A Shorter Distance to Growing Markets
A second option is to build a pipeline south from Central Asia to the
Indian Ocean.
One obvious potential route south would be across Iran. However, this
option is foreclosed for American companies because of U.S. sanctions
legislation. The only other possible route option is across
Afghanistan, which has its own unique challenges.
The country has been involved in bitter warfare for almost two
decades. The territory across which the pipeline would extend is
controlled by the Taliban, an Islamic movement that is not recognized
as a government by most other nations. From the outset, we have made
it clear that construction of our proposed pipeline cannot begin
until a recognized government is in place that has the confidence of
governments, lenders and our company.
In spite of this, a route through Afghanistan appears to be the best
option with the fewest technical obstacles. It is the shortest route
to the sea and has relatively favorable terrain for a pipeline. The
route through Afghanistan is the one that would bring Central Asian
oil closest to Asian markets and thus would be the cheapest in terms
of transporting the oil.
Unocal envisions the creation of a Central Asian Oil Pipeline
Consortium. The pipeline would become an integral part of a regional
oil pipeline system that will utilize and gather oil from existing
pipeline infrastructure in Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan and
Russia.
The 1,040-mile-long oil pipeline would begin near the town of
Chardzhou, in northern Turkmenistan, and extend southeasterly through
Afghanistan to an export terminal that would be constructed on the
Pakistan coast on the Arabian Sea. Only about 440 miles of the
pipeline would be in Afghanistan.
This 42-inch-diameter pipeline will have a shipping capacity of one
million barrels of oil per day. Estimated cost of the project -- which
is similar in scope to the Trans Alaska Pipeline -- is about US $2.5
billion.
There is considerable international and regional political interest in
this pipeline. Asian crude oil importers, particularly from Japan, are
looking to Central Asia and the Caspian as a new strategic source of
supply to satisfy their desire for resource diversity. The pipeline
benefits Central Asian countries because it would allow them to sell
their oil in expanding and highly prospective hard currency markets.
The pipeline would benefit Afghanistan, which would receive revenues
from transport tariffs, and would promote stability and encourage
trade and economic development. Although Unocal has not negotiated
with any one group, and does not favor any group, we have had contacts
with and briefings for all of them. We know that the different
factions in Afghanistan understand the importance of the pipeline
project for their country, and have expressed their support of it.
A recent study for the World Bank states that the proposed pipeline
from Central Asia across Afghanistan and Pakistan to the Arabian Sea
would provide more favorable net backs to oil producers through
access to higher value markets than those currently being accessed
through
the traditional Baltic and Black Sea export routes.
This is evidenced by the netback values producers will receive as
determined by the World Bank study. For West Siberian crude, the
netback value will increase by nearly $2.00 per barrel by going south
to Asia. For a producer in western Kazakhstan, the netback value will
increase by more than $1 per barrel by going south to Asia as
compared to west to the Mediterranean via the Black Sea.
Natural Gas Export
Given the plentiful natural gas supplies of Central Asia, our aim is
to link a specific natural resource with the nearest viable market.
This is basic for the commercial viability of any gas project. As
with all projects being considered in this region, the following
projects
face geo-political challenges, as well as market issues.
Unocal and the Turkish company, Koc Holding A.S., are interested in
bringing competitive gas supplies to the Turkey market. The proposed
Eurasia Natural Gas Pipeline would transport gas from Turkmenistan
directly across the Caspian Sea through Azerbaijan and Georgia to
Turkey. Sixty percent of this proposed gas pipeline would follow the
same route as the oil pipeline proposed to run from Baku to Ceyhan.
Of course, the demarcation of the Caspian remains an issue.
Last October, the Central Asia Pipeline, Ltd. (CentGas) consortium,
in which Unocal holds an interest, was formed to develop a gas
pipeline
that will link Turkmenistan's vast natural gas reserves in the
Dauletabad Field with markets in Pakistan and possibly India. An
independent evaluation shows that the field's resources are adequate
for the project's needs, assuming production rates rising over time
to 2 billion cubic feet of gas per day for 30 years or more.
In production since 1983, the Dauletabad Field's natural gas has been
delivered north via Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan and Russia to markets in
the Caspian and Black Sea areas. The proposed 790-mile pipeline will
open up new markets for this gas, traveling from Turkmenistan through
Afghanistan to Multan, Pakistan. A proposed extension would link with
the existing Sui pipeline system, moving gas to near New Delhi, where
it would connect with the existing HBJ pipeline. By serving these
additional volumes, the extension would enhance the economics of the
project, leading to overall reductions in delivered natural gas costs
for all users and better margins. As currently planned, the CentGas
pipeline would cost approximately $2 billion. A 400-mile extension
into India could add $600 million to the overall project cost.
As with the proposed Central Asia Oil Pipeline, CentGas cannot begin
construction until an internationally recognized Afghanistan
government is in place. For the project to advance, it must have
international financing, government-to-government agreements and
government-to-consortium agreements.
Conclusion
The Central Asia and Caspian region is blessed with abundant oil and
gas that can enhance the lives of the region's residents and provide
energy for growth for Europe and Asia.
The impact of these resources on U.S. commercial interests and U.S.
foreign policy is also significant and intertwined. Without peaceful
settlement of conflicts within the region, cross-border oil and gas
pipelines are not likely to be built. We urge the Administration and
the Congress to give strong support to the United Nations-led peace
process in Afghanistan.
U.S. assistance in developing these new economies will be crucial to
business' success. We encourage strong technical assistance programs
throughout the region. We also urge repeal or removal of Section 907
of the Freedom Support Act. This section unfairly restricts U.S.
government assistance to the government of Azerbaijan and limits U.S.
influence in the region.
Developing cost-effective, profitable and efficient export routes for
Central Asia resources is a formidable, but not impossible, task. It
has been accomplished before. A commercial corridor, a "new" Silk
Road, can link the Central Asia supply with the demand -- once again
making Central Asia the crossroads between Europe and Asia.
Thank you.
The Caspian Sea shelf is considered one of the largest sources of
petroleum outside the Persian Gulf and Russia.

WHY VIETNAM ?
"The Real Story"
The Vietnam Standard Oil War!!
The Rockefeller controlled Pentagon used the excuse of the war to drop
bombs in the water and listen to the echo in order to locate the
underwater oilfields......Herbert Hoover, later to become President of
the United States did a study that showed that one of the world's
largest oil fields ran along the coast of the South China Sea right
off French Indo-China, now known as Vietnam. This was before offshore
drilling had been invented and before a man named George Herbert
Walker Bush was to become the CEO of a world-wide offshore drilling
company.
In 1945, Vietnam was still a colony of the French. Laurence
Rockefeller, it appears, had given the extensive store of weapons to
Ho Chi Minh with the hope that Vietnam would drive out the French so
that Standard Oil would be able to take over the as yet undeveloped
offshore fields. But in 1954, Vietnamese General Giap finally defeated
and drove out the French at Dien Bien Phu with weaponry provided by
the U.S. Ho Chi Minh reneged on the deal since he could read too, and
he was well aware of the Hoover resource report and knew there was a
vast supply of oil off the Vietnamese coast.
In the 1950's a method of undersea oil exploration was perfected which
used small explosions deep in the water and then recorded the sound
echoes bouncing off the various layers of rock below. The surveyor
could then determine the exact location of the arched salt domes which
hold the accumulated oil beneath them. But if this method were used
off the Vietnam coast on property Standard didn't own or have the
rights to, the Vietnamese, the Chinese, the Japanese and probably even
the French would quickly run to the United Nations and complain that
America was stealing the oil, and that would shut down the operation.
In 1964, after Vietnam was divided into North and South, and the
contrived Gulf of Tonkin incident, several U.S. aircraft carriers were
stationed offshore of Vietnam and the 'war' was started. Every day jet
planes would take off from the carriers, bomb locations in North and
South Vietnam, and then using normal military procedure when returning
would dump their unsafe or unused bombs in the ocean before landing
back on the carriers. Safe ordnance drop zones were designated for
this purpose away from the carriers.
Even close-up observers would only notice many small explosions
occurring daily in the waters of the South China Sea and thought it
was only part of the 'war.' The U.S. Navy carriers had begun Operation
Linebacker One, and Standard Oil had begun its ten year oil survey of
the seabed off of Vietnam. And the Vietnamese, Chinese and everybody
else around, including the Americans, were none the wiser. The oil
survey hardly cost Standard Oil a nickel, the U.S. taxpayers paid for
it.

Funny, the Johnson tapes shows LBJ burning Hoover’s butt to solve the
murder of the three civil rights workers buried in a levee. I think he

Well Gerry, that is what we do here, debate the issue. Perhaps I was

The whole 20 year Viet Nam “war” from 1955 to 1975 was an oil
scam....Ever wonder why the US President issued such strange “rules of
engagement” for the American troops that made sure they didn’t win?
Most Americans still believe in the Communist Domino theory.
BLACK GOLD HOT GOLD
The Rise of Fascism in the American Energy Business
(Pre-publication online preview excerpt)
(CHAPTER THREE)
-- by Marshall Douglas Smith
In 1945, at the end of WWII, when the Japanese surrendered,
General Douglas MacArthur became the military Governor of Japan.
MacArthur's assistant was Laurence Rockefeller, one of John D's four
grandsons. Just before the Japanese surrendered, the US had been
preparing for a massive invasion of the Japanese home islands and had
stockpiled vast supplies of weapons and munitions on the island of
Okinawa. Enough weaponry to invade Japan. What ever happened to all
those military supplies?
With Vice-governor Laurence Rockefeller's assistance most of them
were sold to the leader of Viet Nam, Ho Chi Minh, for something like
one US dollar and Ho’s "goodwill." Why would Laurence do that? That
was US taxpayer property. Ho Chi Minh had been an ally to help fight
the Japanese during the war. But the Chinese had been an even greater
ally, so why didn’t the weapons go to China? Those weapons might have
prevented Mao Tse Tung from taking over China just four years later if
they had been given to China. But that wasn’t the plan. From where did
Mao get his weapons?
In the 1920's an insider secret became known to a few people. It
was published in an exhaustive world resources survey book written by
a renowned world-traveling geologist named Hoover, who later became a
US President. Not many copies were printed and few people read the
book. The secret was that one of the world's largest potential oil
fields ran along the coast of the South China Sea right off French
Indo-China, now known as Viet Nam. But in the 1920's the method of
deep sea oil drilling had not yet been developed. In 1945, the French
still held small oil-poor Viet Nam as a colony. Laurence knew about
Hoover’s book and the off shore oilfields. The French could be driven
out if the Vietnamese nationals, lead by Ho Chi Minh, could be
supplied with weapons. Did the French know about this?
Laurence Rockefeller thought he could trick Ho Chi Minh by
offering him the weapons to drive out the French and then in return
Standard would take over the as yet undeveloped offshore fields. But
in 1954 when Vietnamese General Giap finally defeated and drove out
the French at Dien Bien Phu, Ho reneged on the deal. Since by then,
everybody including the French, the Vietnamese, the Japanese and the
Chinese had all read the same Hoover resource book and knew there was
a vast supply of oil off the Vietnamese coast. Many people have
wondered why the French have been so recalcitrant toward the US ever
since French President Charles DeGaul wanted to pull out of NATO in
the mid-1950's.
Ho Chi Minh would not let Standard Oil simply walk in and walk
off with all the Vietnamese oil. So as before, any country which owns
the oil is branded as "communist" since they hold the oil as
"community property" and won't allow private corporations, like
Standard, to develop the fields and steal the oil. In this case, young
American's themselves where "hired" directly to be the "fascists" to
go fight the Vietnamese "communists."
The whole 20 year Viet Nam “war” from 1955 to 1975 was an oil
scam. And all during the "war," Vietnamese General Giap fought the
Americans with weapons he got from Laurence for a dollar. Did you ever
wonder why the US, despite, greatly superior weapons, and the loss of
57,000 Americans and half a million Vietnamese, never won the "war?"
Ever wonder why the US President issued such strange “rules of
engagement” for the American troops that made sure they didn’t win?
Ever wonder why Henry Kissinger, a personal assistant to Nelson
Rockefeller spent so much time in the Viet Nam/Paris Peace talks which
never went anywhere but simply dragged on for years. Maybe winning the
“war” wasn’t part of the plan of the Empire of Energy. Maybe the
timing of the “war” was more important.
In the 1950's a method of undersea oil exploration was perfected
which used small explosions deep in the water and then recorded the
sound echos bouncing off the various layers of rock below. The
surveyor could then determine the exact location of the arched salt
domes which hold the accumulated oil beneath them. But if this method
were used off the Viet Nam coast on property Standard didn't own or
have the rights to, the Vietnamese, the Chinese, the Japanese and
probably even the French would quickly run to the United Nations and
complain that America was stealing the oil, and that would shut down
the operation.
In 1964, after Viet Nam was divided into North and South, and the
contrived Gulf of Tonkin incident, several US aircraft carriers were
stationed offshore of Viet Nam and the "war" was started. Every day
jet planes would take off from the carriers, bomb locations in North
and South Vietnam, and then using normal military procedure when
returning would dump their unsafe or unused bombs in the ocean before
landing back on the carriers. Safe ordnance drop zones were designated
for this purpose away from the carriers.
Even close-up observers would only notice many small explosions
occurring daily in the waters of the South China Sea and thought it
was only part of the "war." The US Navy carriers had begun Operation
Linebacker One, and Standard Oil had begun its ten year oil survey of
the seabed off of Viet Nam. And the Vietnamese, Chinese and everybody
else around, including the Americans, were none the wiser. The oil
survey hardly cost Standard Oil a nickel, the US taxpayers paid for
it.
In 1995, in a multi-hour BBC TV documentary broadcast about the
oil industry, the president of one of the oil companies, a spin-off of
Standard, stated, ".. It was quite a coincidence, that we finished our
offshore oil survey on the very last day of the war, just as the last
helicopter was leaving the roof of the embassy in Saigon." A
coincidence?
Fifteen years later, after North and South Viet Nam were unified
and all the dust settled and most people had forgotten about the
"war," the Vietnamese decided they needed some cash and would allow
offshore oil exploration. They divided up their coastal area into many
oil lots and let foreign companies bid on the lots, with the proviso
that Viet Nam got a cut of the action.
Oil companies from 12 countries put in bids. Norway's Statoil,
British Petroleum, Royal Dutch Shell, even Russia, Germany and
Australia all put in bids. But when those countries drilled in their
oil lots they all came up with dry holes. Only the "American" company
had gushers and since 1990 has pulled billions of dollars out of their
Golden Dragon, Blue Lotus, and White Tiger oil fields in the South
China Sea off Viet Nam. Coincidence? Were they just lucky? Or did they
know something those other oil companies didn’t?
In order to cover for the fact that the Viet Nam “war” was a
"phony" war with the Vietnamese branded as "communists," and the US as
a country having no intention of winning, the US would need to
withdraw as soon as the oil survey was done. A reason would be needed
to explain the withdrawal. In the late 1960's Standard recruited large
numbers of idealistic youth who were against the war and the military
draft. The oil companies supplied them with monetary assistance and
organization.
Those oil-backed and organized youth became the large anti-war
demonstrations of the 60's and 70's. Almost none of the demonstrators
knew they were being used. Most people still believe the “war” ended
because of the strong US sentiment against the “war,” and President
Nixon's withdrawal plan was a reaction to the demonstrators. There is
too much information which explains the strange relationship between
Richard Nixon and Nelson Rockefeller, the Nixon withdrawal plan and
the resulting Watergate incident and Nelson's rise to power to become
Vice President after Nixon resigned, so I will explain that later.
So it appears there are many oil companies but they are, in fact,
all under one controlling marketeer, BP also known as Standard Oil,
which sets the world price of energy. Ever wonder why President G.W.
Bush wanted to open up new drilling in Alaska? There is a vast new
undeveloped oil field discovered in 1989 around and under the Caspian
Sea in central southern Russia. This one oil field is larger than any
other field ever discovered. This oil could be sent out through the
Siberian Pipeline to the Arctic Sea, then down the Alaska Pipeline, as
is the Black Sea oil. Something would need to account for the greatly
increased and continuous flow of oil in the Alaska pipeline.
New drilling in Alaska, whether oil is found or not, could be
used to explain why so much oil is still coming from the Alaska
pipeline. Nobody ever mentioned that the North Slope Alaska oil
fields, around the Duck Island Western Facility, operated by BP, were
running dry and that was the reason why new drilling was needed. Maybe
because its not true. Nobody ever mentioned that the Prudhoe Bay
Eastern Facility, just a mile or so east of Duck Island, also operated
by BP, at the very top of the Alaska Pipeline is a harbor. Maybe
nobody wanted you to know.
And exactly where is this new freshly discovered mother of all
oil fields in southern Russia? In a province called Chechnya. Is it
any wonder the Chechens wanted to become an independent state? Is it
any wonder there had been an ongoing ten year war between the Russian
and Chechen troops. Did the Russians “brand” the Chechen rebels as
“communists” because they want to keep their own oil? Most Russian
mothers have no clue why their sons were sent to die in Chechnya. The
same was true of the many Russian mothers whose sons died in
Afghanistan. And also the very same is true of many American mothers
whose sons died in Viet Nam.
The vast new oilfield under Chechnya, by itself, could meet the
world’s needs for energy for several hundred years. This new oil
supply was far more than could be handled by the aging Trans-Siberia
and Alaska pipelines. With the collapse of the USSR in 1991, the
Russian oil could then be marketed directly. A new overland transport
method needed to be built. An obvious and short method would be to
build a pipeline westward from the Caspian Sea to the Black Sea and
then existing oil tanker ships could take the oil across the Black
Sea, through the narrow Bosporus channel at Istanbul, Turkey to the
Mediterranean Sea and then on to the rest of the world.
There was only one problem with that route. The older Russian oil
fields around the Black Sea still produced enough oil to create a
daily traffic jam of tanker ships through the narrow Bosporus channel.
That long channel is barely wide enough in some places for two ships
to pass each other. The Turks live in constant fear of an ecological
disaster caused by an oil tanker accident on the very doorstep of
Istanbul, which surrounds the channel.
The Bosporus Channel was already beyond the safe limit for tanker
traffic so the massive supply of new Chechen oil could not be shipped
that way. Seven other long pipeline routes had been proposed in the
1990's. All of them required reaching the Mediterranean Sea by going
through politically unstable regions such as eastern Turkey, Syria or
Lebanon, all of which are areas of unrest and open to terrorist
attack. None of those routes were viable.
In 1995 a seemingly safe and short alternative route was
discovered to get around the unsafe overloaded Bosporus Channel in
Turkey. The oil tankers on the Black Sea, instead of going south
through the narrow Bosporus, would turn northward up the wide Danube
River toward Europe. But then at Belgrade, in Serbian Yugoslavia the
tankers would make a quick left turn up a tributary river, unload the
oil, and with only a short 50 mile pipeline could reach the large
Mediterranean seaport of Tirana, Albania and then on to the world. It
looked cheap and easy. And where would that short pipeline be built?
Across a small province called Kosovo. If only Kosovo could be placed
under some international control to eliminate terrorist attacks and
ensure a safe pipeline.
The US Air Force tried to put Serbia and Kosovo under NATO
control in 1999. It almost worked. But, Albania was unlike all the
other old Yugoslavian ethnic states which had been client states of
the USSR under the dictator Tito. Albania, alone in that region, had
been a client state of China since 1949. The Chinese had long used
Tirana, Albania as a European opium and heroin shipping point, in an
operation far larger than the “French Connection” in Marseilles. The
Albanians still maintain ties with China.
The Chinese, did not want to see large amounts of new energy
supplies flowing to the west under BP-Standard control. The Chinese
supported and used the “ethnic-Albanian rebels," since the breakup of
Yugoslavia in the early 1990's, to ensure continuous unrest in the
whole region around Kosovo, Serbia, Bosnia and Macedonia, and thus no
pipeline. Ever wonder why the Chinese embassy in Belgrade was
"accidentally" bombed and obliterated in 1999? The US Air Force
claimed the old street maps their pilots were reading didn't show the
Chinese Embassy. You can fool some of the people some of the time, but
not always. Within a year the Empire of Energy would find an
alternative. To most Americans and to the rest of the world that
alternative would look like a very strange Presidential election.

Great point Tom and this is why the conspirators got away with this as
JFK made so many enemies it is easy to say so many people wanted him
dead. This is why LNers mock the fact that many have said the oilmen
were involved, the CIA was involved, the FBI was involved, the SS was
involved, the bankers were involved, the military was involved, U.S.
Steel interests were involved, etc...because realistically many groups
could have been involved. That is why it is NOT easy to say x,y and z
did it!

To be factually correct a New Orleans, Ft. Worth, New York City Yahoo. All

Oswald wasn't getting out of that hospital alive in any case. He was
a dead man walking as soon as he was taken into custody. If he was
alive when he got to the hospital they would have ensured he did not
survive. There are many ways to kill someone in a hospital
I assume most people agree with me that the plan was to have the
Oswald look alike shoot officer Tippit and then the police were
supposed to shoot Oswald on site at the movie theater. That would
have closed a lot of loose ends.
It was a brilliant plan I must admit.
But something went wrong.
Oswald was not supposed to be taken into custody alive ! That was not
part of the plan !!!!!

Right. That Gulf Of Tonkin thing was supposedly the justification for
getting into Viet Nam.
I'm wondering if what we're seeing right now with North Korea is the same
thing.
Who knows what the truth really is.
Maybe that ship that was supposedly torpedoed by North Korea will be the
next Gulf Of Tonkin incident.

I meant the conspiracy believers think Kennedy wanted to end America's
involvement in Viet Nam and pull the troops out. This was one of the
reasons for the assassination. If Kennedy wasn't assassinated there
never would have been a Viet Nam war. They wanted to get the war
machine rolling again.
That's why for example they would tell the pilots to just keep bombing
the same empty areas over and over again until they looked like the
moon even though there weren't any enemy soldiers within hundreds of
miles of those places.
If it could be proven that this is true and if Kennedy wasn't
assassinated this war would have never happened, this would create the
legal holocaust I mentioned. There is a direct cause and effect link
between the assassination and Viet Nam.

Since the Vietnam War came first, are you saying it caused JFK's
assassination?
Coondog
As bigdog points out, we had a hot war going in Vietnam long before
JFK was assassinated. JFK had increased our troops in Vietnam from a
thousand or so to over fifteen thousand. In 1962 he sent bombers, jet
fighters, helicopters, M113s and Special Force troops to Vietnam.
Kennedy’s plans for Vietnam are spelled out in NSAM 263. There is no
indication that he was prepared to abandon SVN. He also increased
military spending to correct some of Ike’s mistakes. So why kill the
man? The reason wasn’t SVN since the “war machine” was already
rolling there.

I wish I knew the answer to that question.
They wanted it to look like the police shot Oswald because they thought he
was a cop killer. And Oswald did everything in his power to get himself
killed in the movie theater. Oswald actually pulled a gun out I think.
He was following the orders that he was given, not realizing that the
people who gave him those orders wanted him to get killed.
I was thinking about this and it's ironic because the guy who shot
president Lincoln was also in a movie theater.
Anyway why didn't the police shoot Oswald ? If I were to guess I would
say that some if not all of them were not part of the conspiracy and they
were able to subdue and apprehend Oswald without killing him. They may
have realized how important it would be to capture him alive.
This is where fate intervened for us and helped the true believers figure
out the truth. If Oswald had been killed it would have made things more
difficult.
Because they then had to have Ruby shoot Oswald in police headquarters.
This was very, very sloppy. This is the one sloppy piece of an otherwise
perfectly executed plan.
I would like to know what they told Oswald to get him to behave like that.
According to his mistress they had told him that there was a team of
assassins that were planning to shoot Kennedy and Oswald was one of the
good guys.
Well at least part of that was true. There was a team of assassins. But
they were the ones who were giving Lee his orders !
It all makes perfect sense.

No I'm saying Kennedy wanted to end America's involvement in Viet Nam
and pull whatever U.S. troops were there out.
Jeff

OK well not everyone agrees with what you said.
What I heard is Kennedy wanted to pull out of Nam. Within a few days
of the assassination those plans mysteriously changed.
The justification for Viet Nam is murky in many peoples' minds. They
had the fake Gulf Of Tonkin incident.
But you have a point it's something to look into more carefully.

Why not. You have no credible evidence that Kennedy was killed due to
his policy in Vietnam. You have no credible evidence that he was
going to abandon South Vietnam. What you’ve “heard” doesn’t count as
evidence.
> What I heard is Kennedy wanted to pull out of Nam. Within a few days

Yeah, you can hear a lot of crap even here. Here is what JFK planned
to do in Vietnam in October before his assassination. Section I B
(1-3) from NSAM 263 proper which was approved by JFK.
2. A program be established to train Vietnamese so that
essential functions now performed by U.S. military personnel can be
carried out by Vietnamese by the end of 1965. It should be possible to
[withdraw the bulk of U.S. personnel by that time”. Emphasis mine so
Marsh can find this]
3. In accordance with the program to train progressively
Vietnamese to take over military functions, the Defense Department
should announce in the very near future presently prepared plans to
withdraw 1000 U.S. military personnel by the end of 1963. This action
should be explained in low key as an initial step in a long-term
program to replace U.S. personnel with trained Vietnamese without
impairment of the war effort.
As for NSAM 273 completely reversing JFK’s plan it is so many horse
apples. It isn’t true.
> The justification for Viet Nam is murky in many peoples' minds. They

Not mine. The policy at the time was to contain the spread of
communism and that is exactly why we were in Vietnam. We were knee
deep in Vietnam before the Tonkin Gulf.
