How can we open a truly unbiased investigation to determine Lee Harvey Oswald's innocence?
The answer is difficult, and requires some knowledge of the
case, to truly appreciate the importance of the matter, as the true
perpetrators and their heirs in power have had enough influence to
drastically change the course of history. Kennedy's death, for
example, slowed down efforts to thaw the Cold War and allowed the
Vietnam Conflict, which Kennedy was planning to wind down, to erupt
into a full-blown war profitable to the military-industrial
complex, while devastating to the average American. You need to
know that Lee Harvey Oswald was arrested and charged with the
murder of President John F. Kennedy (d. Nov. 22, 1963) before 24
hours passed. Oswald insisted he was innocent. Oswald's own murder
occurred on Nov. 24, when he was being transferred to another jail,
at the hands of a Dallas nightclub owner and known police fixer for
Mafia Don Carlos Marcello of New Orleans -- Jack Ruby -- who later
stated that persons in "high positions" were responsible( see
YouTube excerpt). The FBI directed all investigations to the
singular task of proving Oswald was guilty. Evidence was tampered
with. A palm print of Oswald's for example, was found inside a
section of the "killer rifle" after Oswald was murdered -- yet the
FBI in D.C. had found nothing on the rifle, including that section,
before Oswald's murder. The mortician, however, said the FBI came
to Oswald's casket and took finger and palm prints from Oswald
after his death, taking "a long time" to do so. He stated he had
difficulty removing the ink from Oswald's hands afterwards (If you
look, you can find the censored History Channel series --"The Men
Who Killed Kennedy"--"The Guilty men" "The Smoking Gun," and "The
Love Affair" [in 5 segments]). In addition, Oswald's known or
suspected connections with US government agencies were downplayed
or denied. Many important records from Oswald's military past were
destroyed. During the eight of the Cold War, Oswald 'defected' to
the Soviet Union, supposedly gave information about US radar to the
Russians, yet returned almost three years later to the US with a
Russian wife -- and was not arrested. He received a new passport in
New Orleans in just 24 hours, even though his application stated an
intention to visit Russia. The former Customs agent who expedited
this action has been located. researcher Joan Mellen has also acted
on information given by such witnesses as Judyth Vary Baker to
locate evidence that Oswald was working with Customs in anti-Castro
operations. Mellen supports the much-maligned New Orleans DA, Jim
Garrison. A new, enormous book by V. Bugliosi states Oswald is
guilty, yet Bugliosi dismisses several new witnesses (he wrote
disparagingly of Baker, for example, over several pages,yet never
interviewed her, )and ignores important new evidence. Earlier, the
HSCA (House Special Committee on Assassinations) concluded that a
non-important shot was fired from the Grassy Knoll, in addition to
the sots apparently fired from Oswald's building, but did not have
time or money to investigate further. Similarly, the Warren
Commission, before it, accepted false statements concerning Oswald,
such as about a woman called Sylvia Odio, from witnesses who later
were proven (after the report was already published) to have lied.
Information from new witnesses, such as Judyth Vary Baker, and new
records, such as those found by Jefferson Morely regarding Oswald's
probably being involved with the CIA, as well as fresh evidence
from Lt. Col. Dan Marvin (Ret.) who was asked by the CIA to murder
a witness who had films showing the faking of autopsy findings on
President Kennedy, need to be placed in the public record. In
addition, several persons, most notably mafia hitman James Files,
have confessed to being involved directly in Kennedy's murder, yet
have never been properly investigated. In fact, these witnesses and
their statements/ confessions have been officially ignored.
According to Baker (and supported by statements by New Orleans D A
Jim Garrison, who brought out the only trial in the case -- retold
in the Oliver stone movie "JFK" as well as in Garrison's book "On
the Trail of the Assassins" and in investigator Jim Marrs' book
"Crossfire"), Oswald infiltrated an assassination ring, into which
he was drawn purposely in order to implicate him and frame him.
There is some evidence that Oswald even tried to warn of the
impending assassination. He may have been a man who knew too much,
and therefore had to be silenced. Media efforts come forth annually
to prove a "magic bullet" killed Kennedy without any damage to
itself, going through two persons and smashing hard bone in the
process, ignoring the Zapruder film showing Kennedy's head thrown
violently backwards, just as a spurt of light can be seen emerging
from the area of the Grassy Knoll. Several witnesses said they
smelled gunpowder. Since the wind was blowing hard toward the
building where Oswald was located, behind JFK, gunpowder smell
likely would not have come from the building. However, the smell of
gunpowder was reported at the Grassy Knoll. Films show many people
running up the Grassy Knoll in search of the assassin. Obviously
faked autopsy photos of Kennedy's skull, and many other factors,
point toward the need for opening a new, unbiased investigation
into the matter, before witnesses such as Baker, Marvin, and Files
are dead. All three have expressed willingness to testify before
Congress, and supporting witnesses have also stated their
willingness to stand with them. Official records will not be
released before they are, most likely, deceased -- and such records
may not reveal the truth, anyway. However, if enough petitions are
presented, signed by enough people, they might have enough impact.
Several groups are sponsoring such petitions. Look for them on the
Internet. It may be too late for justice for Kennedy, but it is not
too late for the truth. No history book or website should identify
Oswald as "the assassin." "Accused assassin" is preferred, being
more accurate. Oswald never went to trial. Marina Oswald, his wife,
now believes that her husband was innocent. Marina stated many
things out of fear that she would be deported. Witnesses who did
speak out, such as dallas Police Officer Roger Craig, had their
lives ruined or were actually murdered. Baker had to seek political
asylum due to harrassment, and Col. Dan Marvin had to defend
himself in a financially ruinous trial, from which he emerged the
(now penniless) victor, justified. An examination of the history
behind Oswald's Minox spy camera, the infamous "backyard photos"
and how Oswald was placed in lineups, unshaven, beaten, and wearing
a ripped shirt, alongside three men from the Dallas police
department workforce wearing nice clothes with ties and jackets,
should start to open your eyes. If you are interested in bringing
these new witnesses, and the new evidence, before Congress, contact
those groups collecting signatures. Contact your elected officials
and tell them that justice must be served. Buy books such as
"Crossfire," (Jim Marrs) "Expendible Elite --One Soldier's Journey
into Covert Warfare" (Lt. Col. Dan Marvin), "On the Trail of the
Assasssins" (Jim Garrison) and "Dr. Mary's Monkey" (Edward Haslam)
to learn more details, and then do what you can do to help open a
new Congressional investigation into "THE Crime of the (20th)
Century." If enough people make enough squeaks, the squeaky wheel
may get oiled. President Kennedy has been assassinated twice over:
this slain president has no official government monument, no true
memorial, created by the country he died for. One must ask why this
has been neglected, and why the many records and pieces of evidence
uncovered by the ARRB committee and researchers have not sparked an
urgent and immediate cry for a new investigation, based on these
living witnesses who now stand forth, and the stacks of new
information and evidence pointing to Oswald's activities in New
Orleans and Dallas that indicate he was penetrating an
assassination ring, and had to be silnced at any cost. He was
indeed silenced --with a mafia man's bullet--the first murder ever
shown on television. "The truth will set you free." Your action
will answer this question.
