Well, he got the missiles out of Cuba by making a deal with the Soviets not to defend our ally, Poland. He pulled out the anti-IBM defensive missiles.

As for Vietnam, If you read the Pentagon Papers thoroughly, as published in a special section of the NY Times but never publicized by the MSM, you will find that JFK instructed the CIA to assassinate the President of South Vietnam, who was to JFK’s embarrassment a Catholic, and had been protested by a Buddhist Monk who killed himself and gained the press’s sympathy.

Before that, the South Vietnamese fought the war themselves. After that, we were obliged to send in lots more troops and do the fighting for themselves. When it was passed on to LBJ a while later, he had few choices. Either quit the war and let the Communists take over, or send in lots more troops.

Same with just about everything else. That “Camelot” business was a load of lies. I knew people in JFK’s cabinet, and had a lot of information that the MSM naturally covered up—such as Kennedy’s crippled back and his womanizing. He went to bed with at least three different women a day, which didn’t give him a lot of time to run things.

You are mis-recollecting a bit there. In the 1960s Poland was firmly behind the iron curtain. (Ever wonder where the Warsaw of the Warsaw Pact was located?) It was Turkey that he had to pull the obsolete warheads out of. And IBM is a computer company based in America.

You are right, however, about the murder of the South Vietnamese president.

Those missiles were already due to be removed. It's recorded fact. JFK allowed the Soviets to save face by agreeing to remove them later AFTER the Soviets removed their Cuban missiles. He was smart enough not to cause problems with the Soviet Politburo. There were too many war hawks in the Soviet upper echelon already.

What an entire crock of shit. Bet you also believe Cronkies declaration that we lost the Tet Offensive. You are the epitomy of needy conspiracy types.

"...the South Vietnamese fought the war themselves."

That inane comment shows how little you know. The French were in Nam in the 50's before the US even had advisors.

"I knew people in JFK’s cabinet, and had a lot of information that the MSM naturally covered up—such as Kennedy’s crippled back and his womanizing. He went to bed with at least three different women a day, which didn’t give him a lot of time to run things."

You're full of shit. First prove you had ANY association JFK's cabinet. More importantly, if he had such a "crippled back", how could he bed 3 women a day? Go away you lying ass. Oh, and do you have a Trident on your jacket lapel?
