CIA Rogues and the Killing of the Kennedys

I gave up after 1/3 way through, too many generalities, lack of details. Circular loops of condemnation based on insufficient detailed facts.

I’d wished for harder evidence that rogue or out of control CIA personnel really were more targeted credibly, as we all hope that just desserts is done to those that murdered Kennedy. I’m not a believer that Oswald did it alone, he seems the patsy, as he claimed.

I’ve talked to ex Marines who think they could have made the shots, and that a young ex marine, as Oswald was, could have made the shots.

But other things in other books make this almost impossible Oswald could have done it alone, and the intel connections he had, point to him being manipulated around by some intel missions he was was being pushed to engage in.

“On the Trail of the Assassins” by Garrison, is a far better book.

Disappointed. I’ll read the NY Times’ ongoing coverage of the intel community’s bad behavior and be more accurately informed and satisfied.

Intel bureaucratic groups have to do devious intricately dodging things, that’s their business.

In the end of the day, the intel communities long operations have goals.

One thing the conspiracy angled books must state, is that intel ops by the good guys have to sometimes be dirty to blend in, and infiltrate.

That is the touchiest info to have to accept.

Good guys in intel services and cops who go undercover, act dirty, and worse, to ingratiate and infiltrate.

This life of those that have to do the dirty acting to get the really bad guys/girls, is their touchiest intel secrets.

I read some British undercover expose articles on how they had to do horribly murderous activity to get to the top of the IRA, they did it, supposedly and eventually the IRA unravelled.

Really, all one can hope is the higher ups in the worlds’ countries’ intel bureaucracies have overall longrange good motives.

The intel business’ subterfuge is a given. One hopes the top men and women in their ranks are decent.

It’s such a devilish business.

Citizens who write books exposing intel operations I’m all ears.

This one disappointed.

This book is fabulous but real, credible, and well documented. My father was attorney to one of the hypnotists who has been documented elsewhere convincingly as someone who had a therapist relationship with Sirhan. I was intrigued to find several readers commenting that much of this has been covered elsewhere and better than Nolan. “Pay no attention to the wizard behind the curtain.” They pay these people to throw us off the scent, never forget…

Interestingly, I find that David Talbot is cited frequently and that I was at military school with him for 5 years a half century ago, though we never spoke back in those days, different circles, but I remember him and his brother Stephen well, around the campus. He is involved with the publisher Skyhorse, through Hot Books, and has done a great deal of very important research on these Kennedy martyrs, as well.

In fact, he entered that military school a few months before JFK was shot.

Small world, as ten years ago I began to get more incrementally involved in JFK and RFK research as well, only to find he is a leading researcher on these subjects, and coup d’tat. It has an importance that cannot be undervalued, as a metric of American and indeed world history.

One of the major strands of these tapestries is of Nazi swastika origins. Nazi Intel was a big player in the early formation of CIA. It is not an overreach to say that those roots intersticed with Dulles bros., reached back into the 1920s Germany.

If that seems too “theorist”, nota bene that Otto von Bolschwing, infamous Nazi monster of the Death Camps, lived in ease as an executive for a computer leasing company in SACRAMENTO, Ca., until he died there in the mid-Seventies. It was the CIA itself that covered up his Nazi past completely, until he was “found out” and taken to task by Uncle Sam in his last days, already dying of a fatal brain disease.

Well, so much for that. Better late than never, right?

Right??

Absolutely riveting book by Nolan, with over a thousand references to documentation.

Solid.

I have always been convinced that both Kennedy’s assignations’ were part of a larger conspiracy.
This book tries very hard to prove the CIA and their special hypnotism program were responsible.
In fact the book becomes somewhat repetitive in trying to stress this point.
This theory may be true ?
But I’m sure organized crime (the mob) also played a roll in the killings, but this book only briefly mentions this possibility?
Nevertheless, it is a very good read.

Superb account of JFK and Brother Bobby’s assassinations…to a point……does not get to the real top men behind the slayings. Obvious now that the 2 “culprits” were nothing more than “patsies”. The depth of depravity to which the CIA and other enforcement bodies sank is scary. How easily American justice can be manipulated and innocent people framed is highlighted here……I have read another 10 or so books on this subject and this book is a keystone……it brings a lot of the theories and unknowns together particularly on the day of JFK’s slaying. Characters and plots drop into place now. Amajor base for further reading

a really enjoyable fast paced book that concurs with my own leanings on the grim fates that befelled both the kennedy brothers…i always believed it was the CIA with possible or highly probable help from the mafia and the dallas police…one only has to read about the factual evidence of the CIA Mafia collusions in the 50s and 60s that in terms of dead witnesses is only bettered by the dead witnesses in the ultimate murder of the most important man on the planet Jack Kennedy to see a pattern…this pattern is then linked with the lone gunman nutter social misfit (yawn) who killed the three most famous liberals of the 1960s JFK Bobby Kennedy and Martin Luther King jnr to see how the CIA literally got away with murder…but not with a few dissidents in a far away country…but the three biggest prominent liberals of modern times…..this is mind blowing…..the CIA would stop at nothing to destroy the soviet menace and the threat of communism in south east asia and in a little place the mob used to run with CIA help Cuba…to summise the CIA will in cold blood kill anyone..frame anyone…and destroy countries regimes and ideology to gain the outcome of what it believes is the greater good of not just america but the free world….bobby kennedy for me is where we see proof that lee harvey oswald was a patsy……bobby was left alone until he decided to run for president…as soon as he did the plan was set in motion to kill him…which begs the question why…simply because he would have discovered the truth about his brothers murder….nether murder makes sense in that they were killed by left leaning nutjobs…when both brothers were as left as you could get with having an hammer and sickle on your chest…and yet nixon was never a target..perhaps because he played ball with the hawks meant he was safe until watergate…and that link is explained in this book…..buy this book you wont regret it.
