Among other things, Oswald was issued his U.S. Passport almost immediately after returning from Russia after his supposed defection.
There is a reason his last public statement was about being a "patsy" just before he was snuffed.

A corps of researchers looking into the 1963 assassination of President John F. Kennedy say they have unearthed proof his alleged assassin, Lee Harvey Oswald, was involved in an operation by the CIA mere months before the killing, reigniting questions about whether the Oswald truly was alone in his decision to kill the youngest man ever elected president.
In a Tuesday press conference at the National Press Club, Jefferson Morley—a veteran of the D.C. press corps and a preeminent expert on JFK's assassination with the Mary Ferrell Foundation—told reporters that he and attorneys with the foundation obtained documentation relating to a still-classified covert operation approved by senior CIA officials three months before Kennedy's death that suggested the agency used Oswald for intelligence purposes several weeks prior to shooting.
"This is an extraordinarily serious claim, and it has profound implications for the official story," Morley said Tuesday morning in Washington. "The CIA knew far more about the lone gunman than then they are admitting even today. So this story deserves the closest possible scrutiny."

Make’s one wonder if there was a real sniper 600 yards away who was foiled by the SS Agent that fired a few shots. Was yesterday’s assassin a patsy for a real shooter? Police said there was no perimeter, only a one hole buffer.
I’ve believed this for 60 years.
Morely exaggerates what his documents say. He believes there was a deeper CIA connection that is being hidden, and he assumes still secret documents will vindicate his belief and reports that as fact. He’s not a reliable reporter.
Lots of “private citizens” flocked to Ukraine in 2022: grifters, misfits, troubled souls, wannabe heroes, attention seekers, gullible idealistic young people, dodgy characters running from trouble back home, middle-aged Walter Mitty types hoping for adventure and hot babes ... the list goes on.
James Valasquez was perhaps the most infamous, but Routh has him beat in the kookoo bird department.
Huh. I know I typed Vasquez not Valasquez. Evil spellchecker strikes again?
“suggested the agency used Oswald for intelligence purposes “
Another long article from JFK assassination conspiracy mongers with lots of breathless speculation based on next to nothing.
“the government’s claims that it had no knowledge of Oswald prior to”
No, that’s not what the government claimed. Oswald was a former member of the US military who defected to the Soviet Union and then came back to the US. The US government never claimed that they never heard of this person.
It’s funny how in all of the conspiracy theorizing about tramps and Corsicans and mafioso and the CIA, the plain facts that Jack Ruby shot and killed Oswald so that he couldn’t talk and that Oswald undertook a prior assassination task when months earlier he used a rifle to try to assassinate General Edwin Walker. Why did Ruby do this? Who tasked Oswald to kill General Walker?
Why have these facts gone down the memory hole? Why is Hollywood, the MSM and the publishing industry so uninterested in these facts?
Could it be that these elaborate obscure theories are meant by those with a dominant influence over our government and media to distract people from addressing the most obvious questions which have never been addressed, much less answered?
Just to remind everyone...’A wallet’ with ‘Oswald’s ID’ in it was found at the site of Officer JD Tippit’s murder. 20 minutes later Oswald was arrested in a movie theater WITH HIS WALLET IN HIS POCKET.
Among other things, Oswald was issued his U.S. Passport almost immediately after returning from Russia after his supposed defection.
There is a reason his last public statement was about being a "patsy" just before he was snuffed.
That, plus the feds were careful to avoid interviewing (or at least give any credibility to) the vast majority of the witnesses who said officer Tippit’s killer looked nothing like LHO.
Roger Stones book “The Man Who Killed Kennedy” is an eye opening read about all the ins and outs of the assassination. Far more convoluted than I ever imagined.

This is the best observation you made and why I was interested to see where the investigation goes with Mr. Routh.
I agree. And my point was that Routh would be a perfect ‘patsy’, just as Oswald was.
Oswald via CIA -—> New Orleans -—> Cuba
Bump for Roger Stone’s book.
That is his best work imho.
I second the bump for Roger Stone’s book. I bought a copy when Roger was selling them to raise money for his legal expenses. It was better than I expected.
I don’t buy the theory that LBJ was the mastermind of the assassination, but I am willing to believe that he was sounded out beforehand, because the masterminds wanted to substitute LBJ for JFK in order to achieve a change in US government policy.
Roger does go into forbidden territory in discussing Ruby’s and Oswald’s connections beforehand, kudos to him for that.
Roger tells how Ruby tried to get access to Oswald at Dallas Police HQ the night of the assassination in the company of Israeli journalists, Ruby claiming that he was the translator for these journalists.
But Roger never questioned the ludicrous notion that Israel would send “journalists” who didn’t speak English to work in the United States.
In short, the book is full of interesting stories and well worth the read.
I was greatly amused to find that so many of them got killed, captured, or imprisoned. Trifecta!
If he was a patsy, they didn’t train him very well. Sticking the muzzle of his gun through the shrubbery where the SS could easily spot it, then running away. Given how he loves to brag and shoot his mouth off, um, mighty risky patsy.
I guess we’ll see how it all shakes out.
The grifters might get exactly what they deserve. Many of the others ... well, it’s kind of sad. They usually have more than one screw loose. It appears *all* of Routh’s screws loosened long ago and fell out. What a kookoobird.
