questioning the conclusions of the Warren Commission (that is, his book Rush to Judgment). In another Secret document, the CIA directed that (CIA Officers/assets) contact politicians and editors instructing them that a conspiracy to assassinate JFK was (quote) “deliberately generated by communist propaganda. Urge them to use their influence to discourage unfounded criticism and irresponsible speculation”..."Employ our propaganda assets to answer and refute the attacks of the critics... Our PLAY should point out that our critics (i) wedded to theories adopted before the evidence was in, (ii) politically interested, (iii) financially interested, (iv) hasty and inaccurate in their research, or (v) infatuated with their own theories.” (p. 72)

Mr Lane uncovered a Top Secret memo from Pres. Johnson to the Warren Commission asking them to squelch rumors (about a conspiracy to kill JFK, etc), rumors..“ that could conceivably lead the Country to war which could cost 40 million lives” (meaning nuclear war). (p. 51)

Orest Pena said Oswald was an FBI informant. Pena was a contract agent for the FBI who worked for FBI Special Agent (SA) Warren deBrueys. deBrueys had introduced Oswald to CIA contacts. (p. 55) FBI SA James Hosty admitted to the House Subcommittee (House Select Committee on Assassination) that the FBI had contacted Oswald before JFK was assassinated. Three days before the assassination, Oswald had visited the Dallas office of the FBI and left a note for his contact (case officer) SA Hosty. SA Hosty testified that two hours after Oswald was kill by Ruby, SA Hosty was ordered by FBI superiors to destroy this note. SA Hosty was disciplined by J. Hoover because SA Hosty had talked to the press about the note. (p. 56)

A CIA contract agent, George DeMohranschildt, brought Oswald from New Orleans to Dallas and arranged a job for him at the Texas School Book Depository. (p. 32) DeMohranschildt was a wealthy white Russian Oil man than living in Texas. He was found died in Florida just as he was about to be questioned by the House Select Committee on Assassination. After his death, his personal address book was found to contain an entry which stated, “ Bush George H. W. (Poppy) 1412 W. Ohio, (and) also Zapata Petroleum Midland”. The Top Secret codename for the bay of pigs operation, was Operation Zapata. (p. 332) DeMohranschildt had also at some time been charged by the FBI as being a Nazi spy during world war II.

Joseph McBride, wrote two articles in The Nation and disclosed that George Bush had been involved with the CIA before JFK has been assassinated. He examined an FBI memo dated Nov. 29, 1963 from Hoover to the State Department, subject: “Assassination of President John F. Kennedy November 22, 1963”. It stated that Oswald was in police custody and available for interrogation about his affiliation with agencies of the US government. Also was stated that FBI SA W. T. Forsyth and Captain William Edwards of the Defense Intelligence Agency briefed “Mr. George Bush of the CIA“. McBride states, “A source with close connections to the intelligence community confirms that Bush started working for the Agency in 1960 or 1961, using his oil business as a cover for clandestine operations. (p. 331)

In Nov. 1963, Marita Lorenz traveled with group of seven people; among them were Frank Sturgis , Jerry Patrick Hemming, Novis and Pedro Diaz Lanz from Miami to Dallas, TX. They traveled in two cars and were transporting machine guns, M-16 and M-1 rifles, and hand guns. Marita Lorenz states that after arriving in Dallas on Nov 21, 1963, she and Sturgis met with E. Howard Hunt and he gave Sturgis an envelope of cash for “some so-called operation that I did not know the its nature” . Later that day, Jack Ruby visited the motel room where they were staying. (page 297) Orlando Bosch and Alexander Rorke jr were also at this motel room. Lorenz was question by the FBI in Nov 1963, and she told them this information at that time.

Francisco Fiorini, former chief of security for the Cuban air force under Castro, aka Frank Sturgis and aka Hamilton, was a CIA contract agent and had work on Operation 40 (anti-Castro organizations) run by Hunt for the CIA. Sturgis stated that “while I was in Cuba, I was recruited by the CIA station chief in Santiago de Cuba, to spy for the US government”. (p. 293) He admitted under oath that he was involved in CIA attempts to assassinate Castro and the President of Guatemala. He had a leadership role in Operation 40. (p. 3)

Lorenz had back out of the “so-called operation” and went back to Miami. She stated that Sturgis later told her that she hard missed “the really big one” in Dallas. She says he stated, “ We killed the President that day...” (p. 303)

Marita Lorenz was a former mistress of Castro and mother of his child. Sturgis lied to her and told her Castro was going to kill her and her child, and the CIA got her out of Cuba. She started working in Miami with Hunt and other CIA operatives in the clandestine program to overthrow the Castro government. She later failed in a CIA tasked mission to poison Castro. (p 288)

Gerry Patrick Hemming once worked for Castro as a CIA double Agent, then later worked on Operation Zapata. Hemming was Oswald’s Marine Sergeant when Oswald was stationed at the CIA’s U-2 base in Atsugi, Japan. (p. 131).

Jack Ruby was more than just a bar owner in Dallas. He ran the mafia in Texas for Sam Giancana, the head of the US mafia/outfit. Sam Giancana had expanded his control of the US mafia/outfit and of the world drug trafficking in South East Asia and Europe. Chuck Giancana reports that his brother told him that Joe Kennedy was not just some bootlegger who got lucky in legitimate hard drink business. He says Kennedy was a “made-man”, a part of the Outfit, or a man who paid the Outfit a percentage of his profits for protection from the cops and help make the Outfit bosses rich. (Source: Double Cross by Chuck Giancana). The CIA had equipped members of Sam Giancana’s outfit with botulinium-toxin pills to attempt to kill Castro. (p. 332) Ruby had been an FBI informant. (p. 56)

One of the first matters of concern to the Warren Commissions was the allegation by a former Texas Attorney General, Waggoner Carr stated that Lee Harvey Oswald was a contract agent for the FBI, being paid $200 a month. The CIA had establish a false story the Oswald had been in Mexico City at the Cuban and Soviet Embassies to frighten the Warren Commission into looking no further into Oswald for fear it would compromise national security. CIA Officer, David Atlee Phillips, who at this time had run CIA operations in Mexico City, stated years later that there is no evidence to show that Oswald visited the Soviet embassy, never visited in Mexico City and that no photo had been taken of him there. This was an admission that Phillips had lied to the Warren Commission, and in testimony before congressional committee. (p. 82)

The FBI agents involved in questioning Oswald were advised by the CIA that an individual identifying himself as Lee Oswald had contacted the Soviet Embassy inquiring if there were any messages for him. The CIA had given the FBI a tape recording as proof. FBI agents who had spent two days interrogating Oswald listen to the tape, and reported that the voice on the tape was not Oswald’s voice. (p, 64)

On the morning of Nov. 22, 1963, just hours before the assassination, the CIA gave the FBI a photo of a man leaving the Cuban or Soviet Embassy and they claimed it of Oswald. (p. 61)

The CIA had members of the Mexico City police arrest Silva Duran, who was an employee of the Cuban embassy, and they coerced her to make a false statement that she had seen Oswald at the Cuban Embassy. The director of the CIA sent a cable to the CIA Office in Mexico City. “Arrest of Silva Duran is extremely serious matter which could prejudice US freedom of action on the entire question of Cuban responsibility. “ This cable directed Mexican police assets isolate Duran, make sure her arrest is kept absolutely secret, and that she remain silent in prison.

When she was released from jail, she started talking, so the CIA directed that the Mexicans re-arrest her and to insure she didn‘t get the impression that the US had directed her re-arrest. (p. 59)

The CIA’s work at making Oswald appear to have been in Mexico City, began no later than Oct. 1, 1963. One month and 22 days prior to the assassination of President Kennedy. (p. 64)

A letter from Hoover to the then chief of the US Secret Service had enclosed a five page classified document that Hoover referred to as “the results of our inquiry into the assassination of President John F. Kennedy and backgound information relative to Lee Harvey Oswald”. It revealed that there was no evidence that Oswald had visited the Soviet Embassy. (p. 63)

During 1964, Soviet Col. Nosenko defected to the CIA after working as a spy for the CIA for two years. He provided the CIA with the names of KGB spies as proof he was a real defector.

When Nosenko defected he said he had important information for the Warren Commission, but he was never allowed to speak to them. Nosenko told the CIA that Oswald was never associated with Soviet Intelligence and they suspected he was associated with American Intelligence. Nosenko had examined KGB files on Oswald beginning in 1959 and investigated Oswald after JFK was killed.

The CIA imprisoned Yuri Nosenko for three years to keep him from talking to the Warren Commission. Nosenko was imprisoned in solitary confinement in an 8 X 8 foot cell, had his teeth knocked out, and was subject to hostile interrogation and drugged, all violation civil rights granted to anyone on US soil. No one in the CIA has been tried for this crime. (p. 311- 313)

Gen Lemnitzer, Chairman of the Joint Chief of Staff, believed that the Bay of Pigs Invasion would fail(based on his military assessment of the invasion force and the Cuban defense forces), but withheld his judgement from President Kennedy. (Body of Secrets, p. 82)

The CIA knew in advance that the date of the invasion had been leaked to the Russians, who had in turn relayed that information to Castro. In spite of this information, the head of the CIA, Allen Dulles, ordered the Bay of Pigs Operation forward. The CIA's intention was for Kennedy to send in jets to bomb Cuba and for the Marines to join the (US trained and equipped Cuban "freedom fighters") brigade already on land. If this had happened the survivors would have been placed in a Cuban prison, which would have created an uproar by the American public and forced Kennedy to order a full-scale invasion. High-ranking officials within the CIA spread the myth that Kennedy was responsible for the failure of the invasion. Many Cubans continue to hold this belief when, in truth, the betrayal lies with Allen Dulles and the CIA.
