Audio: Tape (There is nothing at this link remotely linked to JFK) suggests JFK assassination was inside job serving as the final testimony of CIA veteran and convicted Watergate conspirator, E. Howard Hunt on the assassination of President John F. Kennedy has surfaced.
It has been distilled down from a 20-minute tape made by Hunt at his home in Miami, according to his oldest son with whom E. Howard Hunt had enjoyed a good relationship in later life.
The unmarked cassette was received in the mail by his oldest son, Saint John Hunt, in Janurary 2004. At the time, the 86-year-old E. Howard Hunt was not well. According to Saint John Hunt, his father's only request was that the information not be released until his death. Shortly thereafter, he recovered from his illness and he would not die until January of 2007. The tape remained in Saint John Hunt's hands the entire time.
According to Saint John Hunt, the existence of the tape was unknown by his extended family until its broadcast on "Coast to Coast Live with Ian Punnett" on April 27, 2007.(So what?) Many of the details of the tape were included in an interview with Rolling Stone magazine published earlier in the month. (Again, so what? Tell me something.)
The contents of the tape are consistent with E. Howard Hunt's CIA career. (Yawn) He was a significant team member of many CIA "wet ops," that is, bloody operations such as the violent overthrow of the democratically-elected Guatetamalan government of Jacobo Arbenz in 1954 and the assassination of Che Guevara. (We all know what wet ops are.) The Guatemalan civil war that resulted from the CIA-backed coup would eventually lead to the deaths of 200,000 people. (What does this have to do with JFK. Sound more like someone is trying to be impressive.)
In his lifetime, E. Howard Hunt often would be glib about his roles in these "wet ops" and saw them as a kind of patriotic duty for which he was uniquely suited. He was urbane, well-connected and well-educated. He published over 85 spy novels and enjoyed the respect and companionship of many of Washington's conservative elite such as William F. Buckley who wrote the forward to Hunt's most recent memoirs. (Well, this is damn sure proof that'll stand up in court.)
But despite many allegations over the years, E. Howard Hunt had always denied until any involvement in the assassination of JFK. In 1978, Hunt testified under oath to Congress that neither he nor the CIA had had anything to do with the murder of the president. (Now this is something that is on record and one can verify. Problem is, it points to his innocence.)
According to this tape, he was only half-lying. (How does one measure that? I suppose the next paragraph will explain.)
The "wet op" that was pulled off in Dealey Plaza on November 22, 1963 may not have been orchestrated by the CIA proper but rather was put together by several CIA veterans and contract players-for-fire in a "non-sanctioned" hit (The suspense is building) originally "suggested" by then Vice-President Lyndon B. Johnson. (What proof does one have of this?) One of the many purposes of this tape, according to E. Howard Hunt, was to make clear of LBJ's involvement in the assassination. (Okay, so let's here the proof.)
Perhaps as a way of justifying the assassination, Hunt seems focused on establishing the "chain of command" to this action that allows him to see himself as following orders toward a greater patriotic goal. (I guess that by following orders, we are to assume that he actually had Kennedy killed. Meaningless waste of ink.)
On the tape, the man Hunt refers to as "Frank" is, according to written notes taken by Saint John Hunt, CIA Operative and later Watergate co-conspirator Frank Sturgis sometimes spelled "Sturgess." The mastermind appears to be Cord Meyer. (Again, is this from a novel or a taped deposition that I can hear?)
Dave Phillips was also a CIA Operative in Central and South America. (OMG, Dave Phillips. Well that certainly settles it all. Who is Dave Phillips?)
This tape also confirms the long-held suspicion that David Morales was a key member of the assassination team. (OMG again. Now if Dave Morales is involved it must be true. Who is David Morales?)
What is trong>not on the tape i is "Lucien Sartie," the man that Hunt, (would it make this tape more true if what is not on it is George W. Bush's voice?) according to his son, confirmed earlier as the Corsican-born French contract hitman who was flown in to take the "head shot" at JFK from behind the Grassy Knoll.
What is not on this tape is motive but that is attested in other testimony. /p>
ThThese men allegedly hated Kennedy. (I'm betting there were a lot more than that, if one were to count.)
They saw him as soft on Communism, soft on Castro, guilty of sending their friends to their torture and deaths during the Bay of Pigs fisasco and a bad risk for the future of the country. They also did not respect him as a person for his philandering and other behaviors which had yet to become public knowledge but would have been known to them. (This entire paragraph is meaningless. It's the stuff of fiction novels. Saying someone says someone is soft on communism (little c) doesn't make it so, nor is it proof they thought it.)
They were also resentful of the way that the White House had been treating the CIA through Kennedy's disdainful public posture on intelligence and the firings of many of their former associates. (Well this paragraph convinces me. Of course it doesn't explain why Frank Church and Jimmy Carter are still around. Or for that matter most currently elected Democrats.)
In sum, with the permission of LBJ, Cord Meyer, David Phillips, David Morales, E. Howard Hunt conspired to create a "non-official" hit "for the good of the country." p>
AnAnd here, finally, is the taped testimony that proves that once and for all. (Really? Where?)
Saint John Hun, residing in California, who was ernighted the tapes from his father in Texas for what E. Howard Hunt explained to be more secure with delivery in the shortest timeframe. E. Howard Hunt had asked his son not play the tape until after his death.
Glenn Beck highlighed Hunt on his show on May 3, 2007. On the tape E. Howard Hunt claims to have been aware of a "Big Event" in the making which is believed to be the JFK assassination.
Hunt was questioned at the time of the assassination, as he and others were "the hobos" sitting near he train tracks above the grassy knoll. E. Howard Hunt speaks clearly, eloquently and in quite detail on the tape provided for air. There is a longer tape said not yet made public.
OnOne of the other Hobo’s was always thought to be Charles Harrelson the father of Woody Harrelson. (This is beginning to sound a bit like the Anna Nichole story now.) Years later when the senior Harrelson was interviewed by the media, he was shown the pictures of the Hobos. He laughed that one looked like him, but claimed it wasn’t him. (Surely that is proof.)
It later turned out that Harrelson's father was a freelance hit-man. He was accused of murdering a Texas businessman when Woody was just seven years old and was convicted of the crime six years later. When Harrelson was in college, his father received two life term sentences for the killing of a federal judge. His father recently died in prison of a heart attack on March 15, 2007. (This paragraph has nothing, I mean nothing in it to move the story forward. Heck Woody's dad might have been a Martian, damn sure interesting and a sure headline grabber, but WTF does it have to do with JFK?)
I've never seen this many logical fallacies strung together in one writing. Except for a book of 'logical fallacies'.
