Duplicate thread.
This is a repetition of what many of us have already known since it happened.
The explanation for the cover-up is quite simple. If officials had admitted the truth, then there would have been pressure to "do something about it". But most officials wanted to continue to live in a world of PRETEND.
It is no different today. "Everybody" in Washington knew who Valerie Plame was and where she worked. But they PRETEND that they didn't know. They pretend that there was a "leak".
"Everybody" knew that the Bush administration was eavesdropping... just read the anti-war literature starting in October 2001 from both the ANSWR-NION left and from the libertarian Harry Browne types. But we PRETEND that it was a "secret" just recently revealed.
The same can be said for many events about the Vietnam War and recent and ancient history. Each side has its talking points. When the facts don't fit the current set of talking points, we PRETEND that the facts don't exist until it finally becomes convenient to DISCOVER / LEAK / EXPOSE which really means it has become convenient to drop the game of PRETEND for that fact.
"Huismann also unearthed a U.S. intelligence report shown to Johnson which said Cuban secret service chief Fabian Escalante flew via Mexico City to Dallas on the day of Kennedy's assassination, and back again the same day."
Cuba plots to assasinate the POTUS and has its "secret service chief" in Dallas on the day of the hit? I don't think so. If this was a Cuban op, this guy would not have been within a 1,000 miles of Dallas. Also, would the Soviets have let this go down - especially using a hitter that had previously defected to the USSR and was a known communist? Soviets (and, perhaps to a lesser degree, the Cubans) were not eager for a nuclear war. Also, did either Castro or the Soviets realy think that Johnson would be an upgrade for them over Kennedy, who they rolled during the Missile Crisis (which is only now being reported in the MSM but the Reds must have known all along)? Finally, Johnson may have thought that it was the Cubans that killed Kennedy, but I am not sure that really bolsters the argument. I think his former assistant and mistress Doris Kearns Goodwin referred to him as delusional at times. Perhaps it is off the point, but I don't see Oswald making those shots anyway.
That says it all. Standard Democrat M.O.: The heck with the country...we must stay in power no matter what it takes.
Sure, Castro had JFK knocked off: Jack Ruby was paid by the Russians to silence Oswald; Stalin was poisoned by his bodyguard; Hitler is alive and well in Argintina; Michael Jackson is his sister in drag; if you leave a tooth under your pillow you will find a quarter in the morning; government will cut taxes; and Al Gore won the 2000 presidency.
