“For 15 years of my life at the top of the Soviet bloc intelligence community, I was involved in a world-wide disinformation effort aimed at diverting attention away from the KGB’s involvement with Lee Harvey Oswald. The Kennedy assassination conspiracy was born—and it never died.” (Ion Pacepa, the highest ranking intelligence official ever to defect from the Soviet bloc.)
“Of all the people I interviewed in New Orleans regarding the Kennedy assassination, Carlos Bringuier was the one I trusted most. I could see in his eyes he was always telling me the complete truth.” (Oriana Fallaci, L, Europeo, 1969.)
“The skinny guy walked into my store and started looking around,” recalls Carlos Bringuier about the afternoon of August 5, 1963 at the New Orleans store he managed at the time. “But I could sense he wasn’t a shopper. Sure enough, after a few minutes of browsing he came up and extended his hand. “Good afternoon,” he said. “I’m Lee Oswald.”
In 1963 the CIA regarded the Directorio Revolucionario Estudiantil (DRE) “the most militant and deeply motivated of all the Cuban exile organizations seeking to oust Castro." Carlos Bringuier was their representative in New Orleans. It was DRE agents who infiltrated Cuba and brought out the first reports of Soviet missile installations--to the scoffs of the White House's Best and Brightest. It took two months for anyone to finally take them seriously. A U-2 flight then confirmed every last detail of what the DRE boys had been risking their lives for months to report.
“Oswald approached me because my name was so often linked to anti-Castro activities in the local (New Orleans) news,” recalls Bringuier. “He even jammed his hand in his pocket and pulled out a roll of bills, offering to contribute to the anti-Castro cause. I was suspicious and declined, but he kept blasting Castro and Communism in very colorful terms the whole time he was in the store. He returned the next day, snarled out a few more anti-Castroisms and dropped off his training manual for the anti-Castro fight, Guidebook for Marines.”
Two days later Bringuier was astounded to spot Oswald a few blocks away from his store distributing Fair Pay for Cuba pamphlets. Carlos approached, accepted a pamphlet, ripped it to pieces and a scuffle ensued. The cops arrived, the scuffle made the news, and a few days later Bringuier and Oswald debated on New Orleans radio and TV.
Dozens of books, movies, articles and TV specials depict these events. What they DON’T depict is how, between their scuffle and debate, Bringuier and a friend Carlos Quiroga turned the tables on Oswald. Posing as a Castro-sympathizer eager to join Oswald’s Fair Play for Cuba Committee, Quiroga (who had not been in the store or involved in the scuffle) visited Oswald at his home and they commiserated for hours. “You read everyplace that Oswald was dumb, a flake, a patsy, a set-up,” says Bringuier. “Nonsense. He was a smooth operator and spoke fluent Russian.”
Quiroga noticed that Oswald’s living room was filled with Fair Pay For Cuba Committee literature. From one stack Oswald pulled an application to join the Committee and offered it to Quiroga. Yet during the Warren Commission circus The Fair Play for Cuba Committee repeatedly denied that Oswald had any links with them.
Among the things that caught Quiroga's eye during his visit was Oswald speaking Russian with his wife and daughter. "Its good practice," explained Oswald. "I'm studying foreign languages at Tulane University." He was lying. Also keep in mind the date: this was 3 months before the assassination. Oswald’s stint in Russia was virtually unknown at the time.
On the very night of Nov. 22rd 1963 Carlos Bringuier went public on American radio and TV: “We don’t know yet if Lee Harvey Oswald is President Kennedy’s assassin. But if he is, then Fidel Castro’s hand is involved in this assassination."
Fidel Castro immediately called a press conference to denounce Carlos Bringuier by name and kick off the media disinformation campaign that finally peaked as high comedy with Oliver Stone’s JFK.
“For 15 years of my life at the top of the Soviet bloc intelligence community, I was involved in a world-wide disinformation effort aimed at diverting attention away from the KGB’s involvement with Lee Harvey Oswald, revealed Soviet bloc defector Ion Pacepa.
But Carlos Bringuier was on to the disinformation campaign from its very birthday.
“Oliver Stone interviewed me for hours while researching for his movie JFK” recalls Bringuier. “This was almost 30 years ago. Stone’s loony–left credentials weren’t yet blatant. I figured he was after the truth. So I went along, telling him everything. Well, his movie comes out --and turns out I’M involved in the conspiracy to kill JFK!” Bringuier laughs. “For fifty years the media has either ignored or turned everything I’ve told them upside down,” says Bringuier. “Finally I got sick of it so when a couple years back 60 Minutes asked me for an interview, I told them: “sure. I’ll do an interview—but this time it has to be LIVE, no editing.” That ended whatever relationship I had with CBS producers.”
"U.S leaders who plan on eliminating Cuban leaders should not think that they are themselves safe!" warned Castro on Sept 7, 1963. "We are prepared to answer in kind!"
For 34 years Markus Wolf was the chief of East Germany's foreign intelligence service, a branch of the STASI with many contacts and operations in Castro's Cuba. It was the STASI rather than the KGB that undertook the training of Castro's police and intelligence services. Wolf's autobiography is titled, "Man Without a Face" and subtitled, "The Autobiography of Communism's Greatest Spymaster." Most intelligence experts agree that the subtitle fits. Wolf was once asked about the Kennedy assassination and quickly replied. "Don't ask me – ask Fidel Castro.”
There were two individuals killed on 23 November 1963 in Dallas (JFK and officer J. D. Tippit). Once you separate the two and dig into Tippit and his shooting...it brings up dozens of problems in relating it to JFK’s murder and Oswald.
Whoever shot Tippit...was not Oswald, and that brings up various other questions.
Usually the person that benefits most from someone dying is the number one suspect. Lyndon Johnson stood to gain the most. And it happened in his home state. LBJ was a commie from the gitgo. Obviously he didn’t pull the trigger but could have been involved in the conspiracy. Just my theory. Probably BS.
Rebecca Downs solved a vexing mystery in a 1000 words or less. When does her series of mystery novels come out? A future Ann Rae Rule in the making?
There is so much about the JFK Assassination that just screams conspiracy that it’s impossible to ignore....
Oswald managed to station himself in a window with a rifle and supposedly makes a head shot on a target moving away from the shooter, gets out of the building, goes to a movie and manages to get caught later in the day.....a guy smart enough to plan a Presidential Assassination is stupid enough to hang around and get caught...
Then a 2-bit nightclub owner manages to get loaded gun to point blank range inside the police station on live TV and kills the assassin
Yesterday I started re-reading my favorite Ann Rule book - for maybe the fifth time. The BEST true crime author.
This article is propaganda for the uninformed. Oswald was a patsy, as he told us. How he got put into that position is the real story, which we will never know with certainty. But we know that the same Deep State demons are now running the covid and climate change hoaxes.
It’s confusing because the author does not make it clear who she is quoting, but rather putting who is speaking in parenthesis. Until the reader catches on that the name in parenthesis is the person she is quoting, it becomes hard to follow who exactly is speaking. But once you understand that, the article begins to make sense.
“I was involved in a world-wide disinformation effort aimed at diverting attention away from the KGB’s involvement with Lee Harvey Oswald, revealed Soviet bloc defector Ion Pacepa.”
That is a strange effort to announce since it was well known that Oswald spent time in Russia and had a Russian wife. Due to the circumstances at the time, the KGB would definitely be involved with Oswald, one way or another.
And by luck walks right up at the exact time they’re bringing him out.
Was it announced when he would be brought out? Obviously the media knew when to be there.
But…but…Cronkite just *knew* it had to be a right-winger that did it.
FWIW, I’ve been wondering for a while now if Deep State did it.
If so, Deep State’s been a threat to the nation far longer than I thought.
JFK publicly communicated his intent to defang the CIA and fired Allen Dulles as its head.
Exactly two years to the day after his firing (11/29/63) the very same Dulles would be one of seven Americans named to the Warren Commission. This should raise all kinds of red flags. Even if Dulles had absolutely nothing to do with JFK's assassination, appointing somebody with both the motive and means to see Kennedy killed to the group investigating his death was either an act of gross incompetence or an egregious display of deep state, "in your face," contempt for the American people.
By the same logic, Ramzi Youseff should have been appointed to the 9/11 commission.
bump
Downs wasted too many words getting to the point.
Funny thing, I read this same exact column on TOWNHALL written by Humberto Fontova.
I wonder .....................
Read the book called “The Men Who Killed Kennedy”
It names LBJ as directly involved.
Oswald was always The Patsy.
The shots from the window were nearly impossible. They keep saying they were able to reproduce it, But they failed to tell you that the number of sharpshooters tried and failed... And the one who was able to do it did it after 17 attempts.
The Warren commission ignored at least one shot that completely missed.
A second commission found that there was probably a conspiracy, and more than one shooter... Yet that is never mentioned.
What book is that?
Have you read “The Men Who Killed Kennedy”?
It was written by Roger Stone, which is one of the reasons they hate him so much in Washington.
