Almost 40 years after his death following a bar brawl in Key Biscayne, Ricardo Morales, known as “Monkey” — contract CIA worker, anti-Castro militant, counter-intelligence chief for Venezuela, FBI informant and drug dealer — returned to the spotlight Thursday morning when one of his sons made a startling claim on Spanish-language radio:

Morales, a sniper instructor in the early 1960s in secret camps where Cuban exiles and others trained to invade Cuba, realized in the hours after President John F. Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas in 1963 that the accused killer, Lee Harvey Oswald, had been one of his sniper trainees.

No, it’s a reality check for those of us that originally supported him, and for those that dragged their feet and supported him long afterwards, some even today.

[Who is John Galt?]

Your post is the kind of crap that drove FReepers away from FR. Keep trying to make it a ghost town, the left will thank you.

Bingo. I am not looking forward to the Republican presidential primaries, because too many people (including folks who post here) have completely forgotten Ronald Reagan's 11th Commandment...

Think of all the film companies who have made millions by showing different theories of how JFK died.

There was a film made back in the 1977, “The Lincoln Conspiracy” which tried to make lots of claims of the Lincoln shooting.
It was what was called a “Four Waller” film in which the film company rents various theaters (4 Walls) for one night to show the film.
We used to laugh as the announcer tried to name off all the towns in which the film would be shown in.

No, it's uselessly poking the lion with a stick because you enjoy it. But it's costing Jim Rob and you don't care.

[Big Red Badger]

Trump released alot of
Information on JFK.?
.
At this point,
What difference does it make?

Everyone can get 'fired up' from time to time, but some folks seem to make it their mission in life to completely alienate people who agree with them on most things. There's currently another thread ("Stupidity is a more dangerous enemy of the good than malice” – Dietrich Bonhoeffer) that highlights the absolute futility of trying to debate certain issues with certain people...

[Vendome]

Probably coached Andy Kaufman too

[DJ MacWoW]

Absolutely agree. I notice that most decry the press and believe they lie about everything....until they agree with them. Hypocrisy isn’t limited to the left. *sigh*

[Reily]

He was so nutty the Soviet Union was glad to have defect back to the US.

[Big Red Badger]

I read almost Every book
On JFK’s demise.
Spent a day or two at
Dealy Plaza.
Oswald was a Patsy.
Trump’s story probably
has many Parallels.
.
But DS is a common Thread.

[DJ MacWoW]

Had Dealy Plaza changed any? Or was the area pretty much the same?

[vespa300]

No. But I have read all the evidence, the credible evidence such as Posner’s Case Closed and Bugliosi’s 900 page “Reclaiming History” and yes the Warren Report. Easier then the OJ case to solve.

Conspiracy people will be embarrassed if they were to read Posner and Bugliosi’s books.

"Spent a day or two at Dealy Plaza.Spent a day or two at Dealy Plaza.

I've been to Dealy Plaza twice and I've toured the museum twice. On my second visit I was by myself so I looked at every exhibit in the museum. What was most striking is the video of Oswald at a press conference where he's told that he assassinated the president and his reaction was "I did WHAT??"

And they had Jack Ruby's fedora on display.

[vespa300]

LOL..lazy, nutty, a loner, a communist, a real jerk. He tried to kill a General just a few months earlier. Witnesses saw him kill the cop. Look, you could have high definition video of Oswald shooting that rifle from the building and the conspiracy whackos still won’t believe.

[Nifster]

True

[vespa300]

I think my favorite conspiracy theory is the driver of JFK’s limo killing him. That’s an actual theory! I’m waiting for little John John to be the killer. Conspiracy whackos....they don’t even realize they were over an hour late in transporting Oswald on that Sunday. Ruby got lucky, he was at a Western Union office and noticed the commotion and went to check out what was going on.

The Conspiracy whackos probably think the cops were in on it too....funny.

[SoCal Pubbie]

You know who else was there? At the same event as Nixon. Joan Crawford, that Pepsi swigging’ bitch! She was in on it I tell ‘ya!

[KamperKen]

"Conspiracy people will be embarrassed if they were to read Posner and Bugliosi’s books."

Since I'm interested in facts unlike these authors I'd be embarrassed to read them. I've read critiques and it's the the usual dishonesty from darlings of the MSM like of Posner.

The book “Fatal Error” by Menninger shows that there were two different types of bullets that hit Kennedy. One went clean through, the other exploded on impact. Oswald’s 1st shot hit the pavement, and 2nd went through his neck intact. Some argue that JFK could have survived that hit.

The fatal bullet that blew JFK’s skull off came from a secret service agent’s gun in a car directly behind him. The agent reached way down below the seat and grabbed his gun after hearing Oswald’s 1st shot. As he was bringing his gun up he pulled the trigger and that was the bullet that went through JFK’s skull. Information about the guns etc that the SS used (and uses) is “government secret” but pictures and other information the author/ballistics experts put together an explanation that is quite compelling.

There are 2 stories here. First was Oswald (botched) assassination attempt the work of a lone gunman or was he part of a bigger conspiracy? Second, the cover up of the Secret Service accidentally firing the fatal bullet - not many people are aware of this. The most people have heard about a “2nd gunman” and the “grassy knoll.”

If the government records show that the SS did fire the fatal bullet, AND the distinguished Warren Commission knew about it and lied that “Oswald acted alone...Oswald’s shots killed JFK”, then we have maybe the greatest scandal in US history - federal givernment intentionally covered up and lied to the American people about the killing of its POTUS. Why???

And once that tiger is out of the cage, then anything the givernment says today about the 1st question shall be treated as a lie and only citizens truly independent of the givernment will need access to all the evidence and bring the truth to light. And the truth very well show who hired Oswald. Jack Ruby, a man with a terminal illness, was “upset” and allowed to walk up and assassinate Oswald? Hardly, I am sure a deal was made with him to protect and support his loved ones after he died an expected and natural death.

Xiden and any other POTUS doesn’t wants this to be released now for the reasons you also cite, and many more. Including the loss of trust and faith in the federal givernment, at a level never seen before.
