JFK Conspiracy Fact #44: 9/11 Profiteers Linked To JFK Murder

In the days leading up to 9/11 there was suspicious trading activity taking place in American stock markets. Unusually high numbers of put options were purchased on the two airlines--American and United--whose jets were highjacked by the terrorists. A put option is a bet that a stock's value will fall in the near future. It is a very risky bet, and one that is normally not made in any significant volumes. But apparently someone had foreknowledge of the 9/11 attacks because 1,535 put options were purchased on American Airlines on Sept. 10, 2001, 64 times more put options than were normally purchased on an average day. A similar anomaly occurred with United Airlines stock just before 9/11.

Likewise, purchases of stocks which provided security for airlines and airports rose dramatically before 9/11. One such purchase of 56,000 shares of a company called Stratosec was made by Wirt Walker III, a cousin of then sitting president George W. Bush. Stratosec was one of the companies that provided security at the World Trade Center and Dulles Airport. Highjacked American Airlines Flight 77 took off from Dulles Airport. Stratosec also provided security for United Airlines which owned two highjacked planes. After 9/11 Stratosec's share price doubled, and pre-9/11 investors made a small fortune.

Instead of investigating the suspicious trading, the SEC and the FBI quietly dropped the sensitive matter. The head of the FBI at the time was Robert Mueller III. He had been appointed FBI Director by President Bush just four days prior to 9/11. And, oh by the way, Mueller is the nephew of Richard Bissell, Deputy Director of the CIA under JFK. Mueller's wife is the granddaughter of Charles Cabell, also ex-CIA under JFK. After the Bay of Pigs fiasco in 1961, JFK fired Bissell, Cabell and Allen Dulles. The Bush family had close business and personal ties to all these men. George W. Bush's grandfather, Prescott Bush, swore he would never forgive JFK for firing Dulles. Bissell, Dulles, and Cabell had direct links to many of the suspects in the conspiracy to assassinate JFK. Read more at http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/ASIN/098882907X.

JFK Conspiracy Fact #45: Phony Secret Service Agents Were Encountered At The Scene Of The Assassination

Seymour Weitzman, a Dallas cop who witnessed the murder of President Kennedy, ran into the parking lot behind the picket fence on the grassy knoll in Dealey Plaza on November 22, 1963. He ran there because he'd heard shots coming from that direction. When he got to the parking lot Weitzman ran into a man who flashed Secret Service credentials and told him the situation was under control. The credentials looked genuine, so Weitzman moved on. Later, however, the Secret Service had to admit that none of its agents were on the ground in Dealey Plaza that day. It became apparent that the Secret Service agent was a phony, and Weitzman was pressured by the Warren Commission and FBI to change his story. Weitzman never did. What's more, he positively identified Bernard Barker as the man who was pretending to be a Secret Service agent. Barker was a covert CIA operative who was convicted as one of the Watergate burglars in 1972. When Weitzman refused to change his story, he was institutionalized after having a "nervous breakdown." But when interviewed by author A.J. Weberman for his book Coup d'état in America, Weitzman was quite lucid and definitive in his ID of Barker.

Dallas police officer J.M. Smith also ran to the parking lot after the shooting and encountered a phony Secret Service agent. Smith said told the Warren Commission, "It didn't ring true. He looked like an auto mechanic. He had on a sports shirt, but he had dirty fingernails. I should have checked the man closer, but he had produced correct identification."

Defending his men, Dallas Police Chief Jesse Curry said, "I think he [the Secret Service agent] must have been bogus--certainly the suspicion would point to the man as being involved in the shooting since he was in an area immediately adjacent to where the shots were--and his Secret Service badge made him all the more suspicious."

JFK Conspiracy Fact #46: George H.W. Bush Has A Lot To Answer For

One of the suspects in any honest investigation of JFK's murder should be George H.W. Bush. Bush had many tangential and direct ties to the events in Dallas on November 22, 1963. Most suspiciously, Bush and accused assassin Lee Harvey Oswald had a common friend--George DeMohrenschildt. DeMohrenschildt, a covert CIA agent and an international oil geologist, was Lee Harvey Oswald's "mentor" in Dallas. He introduced Oswald to the White Russian community in Dallas, including Ruth Paine who secured Oswald a job in the Texas School Book Depository.

DeMohrenschildt was also well acquainted with the Bush family. DeMohrenschildt's nephew, Eddie Hooker, had been George H.W. Bush's prep school roommate at Phillips Academy in Massachusetts. DeMohrenschildt and Hooker went into the oil business in West Texas in the 1950s, the same time that Bush was working there as a Dresser Industries employee.

After JFK's murder, Bush, for obvious reasons, claims to have barely known DeMohrenschildt, but DeMohrenschildt did not reciprocate these feelings. When he was being hounded about his associations with Lee Harvey Oswald in Dallas, DeMohrenschildt wrote a letter to his old pal Bush, who just happened to be head of the CIA at the time. The letter reeks of desperation. DeMohrenschildt claimed his phones were bugged and he was being followed by "vigilantes." "Either the FBI is involved in this or they do not want to accept my complaints; I tried to write stupidly and unsuccessfully about Lee Harvey Oswald," writes DeMohrenschildt. At the time, he knew he was in trouble because he was threatening to expose what he knew about JFK's assassination.

Just a few months later DeMohrenschildt was found shot to death on the very day he was scheduled to be interviewed by the House Select Committee on Assassinations in 1977. The death was ruled a "suicide by shotgun blast." Found in DeMohrenschildt's belongings was the address and phone number of "Bush, George H.W., 1412 W. Ohio also Zapata Petroleum, Midland, Texas." I guess Bush answered DeMohrenschildt's letter after all.

JFK Conspiracy Fact #47: War Contactors Benefitted From JFK's Death

The list of JFK historians who cling to the myth that he would have escalated the Vietnam War, just like his successor did, has dwindled to an uninformed few. Even most establishment historians now admit that JFK intended to pull out of Vietnam altogether in 1964, as evidenced by his National Security Action Memo 263 which he signed just weeks before his death. NSAM 263 called for the removal of any and all American military presence in southeast Asia during his second term.

Once this fact is absorbed and accepted, any serious historian must then ask how and why did JFK's own VP escalate the Vietnam War so dramatically and quickly? For the answer one must examine who wanted Kennedy dead and how did these people benefit from his death? Long-time Kennedy hater, D. H. Byrd, Dallas oil millionaire and LBJ associate, was one of those who reaped a windfall from the swift foreign policy reversal. His Ling-Temco-Vought corporation was awarded a large defense contract as Vietnam ramped up.

Bell Helicopter, a company with covert CIA connections, got the government contract to make Huey helicopters. According to General Fletcher Prouty, ex-CIA liaison to the Pentagon, Textron, a CIA proprietary, "...did acquire the Bell Helicopter Company and the CIA did step up use of helicopters in southeast Asia, to the point where
orders for Bell Helicopters for use in Vietnam exceeded $600-million. Anyone wanting to know more about how the U.S. got so heavily ($200-billion and the loss of 58,000 American lives) involved in Indochina need look no further. This was the pattern and the plan."

Bell was replete with employees who had overt CIA ties in high security clearance jobs. One employee was Walter Dornberger, an ex-Nazi who was recruited into US intelligence by Allen Dulles. The same Allen Dulles who was fired as CIA director by Kennedy in 1961. Another Bell employee was Michael Paine, husband of Ruth Paine. The same Ruth Paine who got Lee Harvey Oswald his job in the Texas School Book Depository.

Brown & Root/Halliburton, whose officers hated JFK and his policies, also got massively rich off Vietnam. George Brown of Brown & Root contributed heavily to LBJ's political coffers. And just hours after the assassination, LBJ was overheard telling an aide that he had to sell off his Halliburton stock.

Given this evidence, one must conclude that JFK's murder and the escalation of the Vietnam War were not unrelated events.

JFK Conspiracy Fact #48: LBJ's Benefactor Provided First And Last Places Of Employment For Oswald

Of the many things overlooked by establishment "historians" in the JFK assassination is the suspicious connections of one David Harold Byrd. Dallas oil millionaire and right-wing fanatic, Byrd helped finance Lyndon Johnson's political career. The two men were close and were often seen together socializing. Like other infamous Dallas oil barons H.L. Hunt and Clint Murchison, Byrd hated JFK. These oilmen were hellbent on getting LBJ into the White House, and Hunt admitted that the only way to remove Kennedy was to "shoot him out of office." Byrd helped facilitate this.

At the time of the assassination Byrd owned the Texas School Book Depository building where Lee Harvey Oswald was employed. Byrd also founded the Louisiana Civil Air Patrol, of which Oswald was a member in the 1950s. Astoundingly then, Byrd provided two jobs for Oswald in two different cities a decade apart.

Think about that for a moment. A Dallas oil millionaire who hated JFK, and who was a close associate of the man who replaced JFK, provided employment for JFK's accused assassin in two different properties/entities--the LCAP in the 1950s and then the TSBD in the 1960s. Try coming up with an innocent explanation for that.

The truth is, the LCAP was a CIA front. Oswald was recruited into low-level intelligence work by his LCAP captain, David Ferrie. In the autumn of 1963 Oswald was chosen to be the fall guy in the murder of the century, and thus needed a job along the JFK parade route. D.H. Byrd was happy to oblige.

Byrd was also a close friend of Air Force Chief of Staff Curtis LeMay, another avowed Kennedy hater. With all these suspicious connections, Byrd should have been a person of interest in the murder of the century. But the fix was in. His old pal Lyndon formed the Warren Commission to cover up the crime, not investigate it.

JFK Conspiracy Fact#49: De Facto Head Of Warren Commission Had Direct Ties To Accused Assassin

Imagine for a moment that a murder investigator is well acquainted with the suspect. Now throw in the fact that it is not just any murder, but the murder of the century. And the suspect is no ordinary suspect; he is Lee Harvey Oswald. Shouldn't the investigator recuse himself? That would be the appropriate course of action, but that's not what Allen Dulles did. Dulles, head of the CIA until 1961 when JFK fired him and the de facto head of the Warren Commission (How does one get a job investigating the murder of the man who fired him? Shouldn't he be on the suspect list?), was indisputably, secretly and closely acquainted with Ruth Paine. In the fall of 1963 Ruth Paine housed the Oswald family, including Lee on weekends. Dulles's long-time mistress, Mary Bancroft, was best friends with Paine's mother-in-law. In fact, the Paine and Dulles family trees can be traced back to eastern establishment/robber baron money, and both families had deep CIA ties.

The night before the assassination, Lee Harvey Oswald stayed with Marina and the kids at Paine's home in Irving, a Dallas suburb; this was a disruption in Lee's normal routine of staying at his boarding house in Dallas on weeknights and with Paine on weekends. This gave Ruth the chance to frame Oswald by testifying to his demeanor and mood on the night before he supposedly killed the president. She also claimed that the rifle Lee kept in her garage was missing on November 22, 1963, implying it was the rifle Lee took with him to work that day at the Book Depository.

Conveniently, Ruth was separated from her husband Michael at the time. It gave her and the Oswalds distance from Michael's firm--Bell Helicopter--which employed many CIA operatives. One of those operatives was Walter Dornberger, an ex-Nazi who worked on the V-2 rocket in Germany during World War II. Dornberger should have been tried and hanged as a war criminal; instead after the war ended he was recruited into U.S. intelligence service by, you guessed it, Allen Dulles. Dulles's Operation Paperclip rescued many Nazi war criminals and gave them jobs in our aerospace, military, propaganda, drug research and intelligence spheres. All the dirty things the CIA was doing post-WW II.

Oh what tangled webs Dulles wove. Read more at http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/ASIN/098882907X

50 Pieces of Evidence To Prove Conspiracy in JFK Murder; JFK Conspiracy Fact #50: 3 Future Presidents Were In Dallas That Day, And Another Served On The Warren Commission

A half-century of official lies is long enough, don't you think? In the 50 days leading up to the 50th anniversary of JFK's assassination, I will present 50 pieces of evidence to prove conspiracy. Today, JFK Fact #50: Three future presidents--LBJ, Nixon and Bush--were in Dallas on November 22, 1963, and one future president--Ford--served on the commission that covered up the crime. Mere coincidence or happenstance, you say? Think again. They all served their purpose and played a role, wittingly or unwittingly, in the tragedy that unfolded. LBJ was adamant that JFK visit Dallas, and LBJ's right-hand man, John Connally, made sure the motorcade traveled where LBJ wanted it to go. Richard Nixon tried to goad JFK into eliminating vital security. And he reminded LBJ that JFK was going to ruin his political career in 1964. Jerry Ford squelched evidence, misdirected witnesses, and helped frame Oswald while he served on the Warren Commission. What was George H. W. Bush's role? You can read more about that in The President's Mortician, http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/ASIN/098882907X.

Altogether, LBJ, Nixon, Ford, Bush and/or their offspring, occupied the White House for 25 of the next 45 years. Kennedy's death marked the end of real democracy in America. What followed was a new form of government--of the rich, by the wealthy, and for the few...whose rulers were chosen by a secret oligarchy.
