It started here. At Cape Cod. With Jack and the Kennedys. Andrew Marr, JFK: The Making of Modern Politics, BBC 2010
Kennedy is a Catholic. Is an outsider. And felt he had to do anything to kick his way to power. ibid.
It was said of the Kennedys that they created illusions and called them as facts. ibid.
Some of the most virulent racists around in 1960 were in Kennedy’s own party, the southern Democrats. ibid.
After the election Kennedy got no civil rights legislation through Congress. ibid.
After JFK we expected our politicians to look good, to make heart-stopping speeches, to have beautiful children, to be masters of marketing and artists of spin. But the higher the hope the greater the fall. The inevitable disillusion. If you campaign in poetry, governed in prose you may be remembered in curses ... He is a better memory than a model. ibid.
Kennedy was as unpopular in Texas as a president is likely to get. Randy Roberts, Purdue University
All these handbills started appearing on car windshields saying Kennedy Wanted For Treason. Max Holland, author The Kennedy Assassination Tapes
And the release of the news that this fella [Oswald] spent two and a half years in the Soviet Union is like five alarm bells going off. You’re talking a year after the Soviet missile crisis. Since the height of the Cold War. Max Holland
It’s not the individual person here in Dallas. It’s something evil festering, stinking in this community. You who have written stories about the shame of Dallas and the rape of Americanism here know what I’m talking about. There’s something that smells. Melvin Belli, counsel for Jack Ruby, televised interview

Dallas is the city where on the day of the President and First Lady’s arrival the Dallas Morning News ran a full page ad with the mocking caption, Welcome, Mr President. The ad contained a number of questions which were themselves accusations of President Kennedy, implying his cooperation with the US Communist Party, his bloodily extermination of anti-communist allies, and his scrapping of the Monroe Doctrine in favour of the Spirit of Moscow. In the name of God what kind of city have we become? Reverend William A Holmes, televised interview
Mind Control ... The one who immediately springs to mind is Lee Harvey Oswald who at times was anti-Russian, pro-Russian, anti-Castro, pro-Castro, CIA, anti-CIA, anti-American, pro-American. Neil Sanders, Richplanet TV with Richard D Hall
... The next thing that’s wrong is to keep the secret they killed a lot of people who tried to leak it out. And if I hadn’t done it the way that I did it, you wouldn’t be seeing me anywhere standing or walking on this Earth now. They killed President Kennedy and during the workshop, for those of you haven’t seen the tape, I will show you, on the tape, who shot the President and why. Between ’70 and ’73 in Operation Majority it stated verbatim that President Kennedy ordered MJ-12 to cease the importation and sale of drugs to the American people, that he ordered them to implement a plan to reveal the presence of aliens to the American people within the following year.
His assassination was ordered by the policy committee of the Bilderbergers. MJ-12 implemented the plan and carried it out in Dallas. It involved agents of the CIA, Division 5 of the FBI, the Secret Service, and the Office of Naval Intelligence. President Kennedy was killed by the driver of his car; his name was William Greer. He used a recoilless, electrically operated, gas-powered assassination pistol that was specially built by the CIA to assassinate people at close range. It fired an explosive pellet which injected a large amount of shellfish poison into the brain, and that is why, in the documents, it states that President Kennedy’s brain was removed. If you’ve studied the case, you will find that indeed his brain disappeared. The reason for that is so that they would not find the particles of the exploding pellet or the shellfish poison in his brain which would have proved conclusively that Lee Harvey Oswald was NOT the assassin. In fact, Lee Harvey Oswald never fired a shot. He was the patsy. Bill Cooper, lecture A Seminar on Majic 12
The driver of the car turns with his left arm over his right shoulder with a pistol and fires. You see the 45-caliber nickel-plated automatic weapon in his left hand. William Cooper – JFK Assassination Unmasked, short film by Larsen
It is a weapon. William Greer did shoot the President. You can see him bring his weapon across his chest, turn completely around in the seat and fire point-blank range as he is facing directly at the President. William Cooper
The assassination of President Kennedy was conducted by provincial Jesuit Cardinal Francis Spellman who answered directly to the Superior General of the Jesuits. Who Controls the World?
The initial turning point was the first meeting I had with the French narcotics trafficker … Christian David. In May or June in Marseille he had been offered the contract to kill President Kennedy … There were three killers … In the Fall of 1963 the three killers were flown from Marseille to Mexico City … They crossed the border using Italian passports ... They were driven to Dallas and put up in a safe house … They spent several days taking photographs of Dealey Plaza … They arranged a cross-fire with three guns … Two of the assassins were in buildings behind the President’s limousine – he [David] didn’t know which building … One was high and one was low … He [Sarti the assassin] wore uniform. Steve Ravel, writer & researcher
President Assassinated: A dark page in the annals of America history has been written to the crack of an assassin's bullet. A nation mourns, a world grieves. Ed Herlihy, Universal International News
He led his country boldly through the treacherous shoals of Cold War crises. ibid.
John Fitzgerald Kennedy was the most charismatic US president of the twentieth century. His youth and his intellectual brilliance promised a new era in American politics. But he was also a reckless sexual adventurer. At least five of Kennedy’s conquests were a danger to national security. But the president ignored the warnings. Now recently released documents and eye-witness accounts prove that the press were ready to expose these dangerous liaisons. On November 22nd 1963 JFK was assassinated in Dallas. The world mourned the death of a great [sic] man. But did the assassin’s bullet [sic] save his reputation. JFK – The Scandals Revealed, 2011
Giancana was head of the Chicago Mafia mob that had once been run by Al Capone. Joe Kennedy had asked him to support his son’s election campaign. ibid.
The Mafia’s skill at exploiting human weaknesses gave them an opportunity to snare the future president of the United States. They contributed to his election campaign, and they paid for his personal pleasures. But JFK seemed oblivious to the risks. ibid.
The FBI thought Marilyn was a communist sympathiser. ibid.
J Edgar Hoover had ordered a review on the file of Kennedy’s sex life. ibid.
He [Giancana] was well connected to the Kennedys ... Before voters went to the polls Giancana sent one of his men to spread $50,000. Mafia’s Greatest Hits: Sam Giancana, AHC 2012
Giancana called them G Men ... Kennedy was changing the game. ibid.
‘With Kennedy, a guy should take a knife and stab and kill that fucker.’ ibid. Sam Giancana, FBI tape
It hadn’t gone unnoticed that Giancana had asked Ruby for help from time to time. ibid.
That Kennedy, that smiling, we’ll fix him in Dallas. We’re gonna get him in Dallas. Carlos Marcello
In 1963 while Marcello awaited trial for conspiracy in connection with his fake birth record, New Orleans teemed with questionable characters. Among them was an ex-Marine named Lee Harvey Oswald. He had abruptly moved from Dallas, but he was no stranger to the Big Easy ... Although there’s no evidence Marcello and Oswald ever met, they did move in the same circles, and shared a common enemy.
