President Kennedy speaking in Fort Worth the morning of Nov. 22, 1963

Just two days after the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, a suspected killer and known foreign terrorist was captured in Dallas, Texas.
The U.S. government was aware the man had received rigorous training in a foreign military and was a member of a covert paramilitary organization that already had murdered dozens, if not hundreds of people, including military officers, high ranking police officials and democratically elected politicians.
President Kennedy speaking in Fort Worth the morning of Nov. 22, 1963 |
Amazingly, according to the authors of an explosive new book promising to unravel the 40-year mystery of who killed JFK, there is no evidence to show he ever even was questioned about his presence in Dallas so soon after Kennedy's murder.
Instead, say co-authors Brad O'Leary and L.E. Seymour in the upcoming WND Books release "Triangle of Death," the man was picked up and quickly and quietly flown out of the United States under a cloak of secrecy.
Although the book has not yet been released to bookstores, it has already shot up to 218 on the Amazon chart just from initial pre-sales.
The story of the mysterious assassin is revealed in a CIA document backing the author's compelling argument that President Kennedy was killed Nov. 22, 1963, as the result of a massive conspiracy between the CIA-installed government of South Vietnam, the French global heroin syndicate and the New Orleans Mafia.
"This deportation, in fact, and the sinister man in question, have been the subject of repeated U.S. Justice Department investigations for more than three decades," the authors write, "investigations that have been deliberately withheld from the American public and the world."
The suspicious expulsion also never was reported to the Warren Commission, the official investigative body appointed by President Lyndon Johnson.
"This revelation can only be described as colossal in the realm of assassination research, and one would accordingly expect the league of Kennedy researchers to jump all over it, examine it to every degree, and then include its startling importance in the overall field of their work," O'Leary and Seymour write. "But that never happened."
The CIA document reveals the man was a French assassin – wanted by France for subversion – who was in Fort Worth on the morning of Nov. 22, 1963, and in Dallas in the afternoon.
On that morning, President Kennedy was in Forth Worth, giving a speech in front of the Hotel Texas. In the afternoon, in Dallas, he was shot to death.
Noting all U.S. deportations were executed by the Immigration and Naturalization Service, the authors ask: "Why would an authority of the United States Justice Department deport a known terrorist?"
One would believe, they write, that he would have been "apprehended and imprisoned, or at least sent back to France where the legal authorities there had already clearly deemed him an enemy of the state."
"But there's no evidence to suggest [he] was ever even questioned about his presence in Dallas so soon after Kennedy's murder."
The French, who believe he was expelled to either Mexico or Canada, identified him as a member of the right-wing extremist group, the OAS, Organisation de l'Armée Secrète, comprised of deserters from the French Army in opposition to President Charles de Gaulle's granting of independence to Algeria. The members of the "Secret Army" were involved in countless acts of terrorism and assassination.
"Triangle of Death" answers questions surrounding this previously dismissed episode and pieces it together with recently declassified federal documents, material supplied by the KGB, information from the Bonano crime family, documents obtained from a French court and the only interview done with a French witness previously only debriefed by the FBI and CIA.
As WorldNetDaily reported, newly released tapes of Johnson's telephone conversations also corroborate the central premise the book, showing the Kennedy White House did not merely tolerate or encourage the murder of its ally, South Vietnamese President Ngo Dinh Diem, but organized and executed it, writes Fox News White House correspondent James Rosen in the Weekly Standard.
Coup d'état
"Triangle of Death" – which includes details of a first-time-ever crime scene re-creation at Dealey Plaza – shows how Kennedy planned and developed the coup d'état that resulted in the political murders of the Catholic president, Diem, and his two brothers just 22 days before his death. The U.S. State Department suppressed this information for more than 30 years.

Evidence includes federal documents that only recently have been declassified or released – exclusively to the authors.
The authors reveal a Mafia chieftain, who employed Jack Ruby and Lee Harvey Oswald's uncle, confessed to federal officers he had been directly involved in Kennedy's murder.
In addition, O'Leary and Seymour recount how the United States and the Soviet Union both went on high military alert immediately after Kennedy's death, bringing the world to the brink of nuclear annihilation.
Other facts uncovered by the book include:
Two chapters of this book have already been used to make two different television specials – one on PBS and the other on the History Channel.
Co-author O'Leary, involved in politics for more than 25 years, publishes the O'Leary Report, one of the most influential publications in American politics. His clients have included more than 60 political and public figures, including Sen. John Tower and Texas Gov. John Connolly, who rode in Kennedy's car when he was shot. O'Leary also hosted his own radio show on NBC for seven years and was a contributing columnist for USA Today Weekend magazine. He currently is president of Associated Television News in Los Angeles.
O'Leary is available for media interviews through Shirley and Banister and Associates at (703) 739-5920.
His co-author, Seymour, is a free-lance writer and author of 15 novels, including "The Stickmen" and "Operator 'B'."
False claims?
O'Leary and Seymour note investigative bodies of the U.S. government have made numerous claims, including that Lee Harvey Oswald was the lone assassin; that only two shots hit their target, that the bullets fired that day all came from the sixth floor of the Texas Schoolbook Depository; and that Kennedy was killed because he was preparing to pull all U.S. troops out of Vietnam.

The authors insist all of these claims are false and are designed to placate the American public and distract them from the facts of the case.
They acknowledge most readers will find it difficult to accept that Kennedy authorized the overthrow of the Catholic government of South Vietnam and the assassination of Diem, South Vietnam's democratically elected, constitutional president.
After all, Kennedy had generously pledged American troops, military equipment and tax dollars to protect South Vietnam from the threat of communism.
But the authors of "Triangle of Death" provide evidence Kennedy personally asked a high-ranking U.S. military officer to assassinate Diem, who was a political disaster-in-the-making for the president.
The events were set into motion when a Buddhist leader named Quang Duc calmly sat down in a Saigon street June 11, 1963, soaked himself with gasoline, lit a match and burned himself to death.
The news swept through the world, and when the full extent of Diem's brutality toward the Buddhists became apparent, America immediately began to ask itself the obvious questions, O'Leary and Seymour write: "Why is the U.S. supporting a foreign government that engages in religious persecution? Why is President Kennedy sending U.S. military personnel to help the government of a man who puts his own people into concentration camps?"
The authors point out: "Until then, America believed the increasing number of U.S. men and women being sent to South Vietnam – close to 15,000 by June 1963 – and the $1.2-million-per-day aid package were to help the South Vietnamese fight the deadly Vietcong. But literally overnight, the U.S. was internationally perceived as a bunch of buffoons who were propping up a tyrant."
 South Vietnamese President Ngo Dinh Diem was assassinated Nov. 1, 1963 |
With the next U.S. presidential election just over a year away, they write, "Kennedy was infuriated; moreover, he and his political consultants were scared."
People "already believed that Kennedy had stolen the election, based on suspicious vote-counting in Illinois; a Catholic U.S. president supporting a Catholic fanatic who was intent on persecuting another religious group would provide them with all the ammunition they needed in November of '64."
The authors contend they have irrefutable evidence the Kennedy White House supported a coup d'etat against the government of South Vietnam and the assassination of President Diem.
"More than anything else," they write, "this was the rich ground in which a counter-conspiracy was planted, the conspiracy that led to President Kennedy's own assassination."
Perhaps you can tell us what the "it" was they were trying to duplicate?
Oswald shot three times at Kennedy's head (the only part of his body visible in the limo). One shot missed completely. One shot hit him in the back. The third and fatal shot just grazed Kennedy's skull. None of Ozwald's shots were a direct hit on the intended target.
Are you telling me the Marine sharpshooter could not duplicate two misses and a near miss out of three shots? If this is true we are all in trouble.
Actually that's still not correct. Removing the receiver from the stock will not affect accuracy. The slightest jar will not affect accuracy because recoil doesn't affect accuracy.
Dropping it on the ground between a number of boxes after it was used to kill a president would affect accuracy.
According to my friend, Gunnery Sergeant Carlos Hathcock, the former senior instructor for the U.S. Marine Corps Sniper Instructor School at Quantico, Virginia, it could not be done as described by the FBI investigators. Gunny Hathcock, now retired, is the most famous American military sniper in history. In Vietnam he was credited with 93 confirmed kills--and a total of over 300 actual kills counting those unconfirmed. He now conducts police SWAT team sniper schools across the country. When I called him to ask if he had seen the Zapruder film, he chuckled and cut me off. "Let me tell you what we did at Quantico," he began. "We reconstructed the whole thing: the angle, the range, the moving target, the time limit, the obstacles, everything. I don't know how many times we tried it, but we couldn't duplicate what the Warren Commission said Oswald did. Now if I can't do it, how in the world could a guy who was a non-qual on the rifle range and later only qualified 'marksman' do it?"
Craig Roberts is coauthor with Charles Sasser of One Shot One Kill on military snipers beginning with Carlos Hathcock as Chapter One. Roberts is a member of the U.S. Marine Corps Scout/Sniper Association.
The Warren Commission has stipulated that only three shots were fired and all of them by Lee Harvey Oswald from the sixth floor eastern window of the Texas School Book Depository.
The Commission further stipulates that one bullet missed, struck the curb 20 feet from the overpass and injured Tague's cheek. The curb was patched before the FBI test, making the test worthless.
The Commission insists only a single bullet caused the wounds to Kennedy's head--yet the Parkland Memorial physicians noted a major defect of the occipital or back of the skull, and the recovered skull fragment, the Harper fragment was occipital.
The large occipital defect indicates a rear exit inconsistent with a rear entry, hence Oswald is excluded.
The Parkland personnel observing and describing this large rear defect include:
Dr. Charles Crenshaw
Dr. Ronald Jones
Dr. Charles Carrico
Dr. Richard Dulaney
Dr. Robert McClelland
Dr. Paul Peters
Dr. Kenneth Salyer
Nurse Audrey Bell
Theran Ward
Aubrey Rike
Jerrol Custer
Paul O'Connor
Floyd Riebe
Frank O'Neill (FBI agent)
Dealey Plaza eyewitnesses:
Beverly Oliver
Phillip Willis
Marilyn Willis
Ed Hoffman
The major defect in the rear of the skull disappeared in autopsy photos, no greater feat than Kennedy's brain performed, weighing 1500 grams per autopsy report, yet being absent in its entirety when its stainless cylinder was opened.
The Commission fantasized a Magic Bullet whose entry had to be much higher than Kennedy's actual back wound, 5-3/8" down from his coat collar, 5-3/4" down from his shirt collar according to FBI measurements.
Yet the autopsists stated this back wound did not penetrate beyond the first digit of a finger, thus used up one of the three precious shots without accomplishing its assigned task.
The Commission, relying upon Arlen Specter, insisted this Magic Bullet, entered Kennedy in his neck. Commissioner Gerald Ford maintained this to the end--yet that would be a fourth bullet, fatal to the Commission's assignment of all culpability to Oswald.
In addition, Kennedy's throat wound was described by the Parkland Memorial physicians as small, round, edges inward indicating a wound of entry from a shot fired from in front of Kennedy, not behind, not from the infamous "sniper's nest".
[This small round wound of entry was neatly slit for a trache tube, but the Parkland physicians were shocked to see it had been ripped open to a gaping gash by the time of autopsy photos--it had to be, for the Magic Bullet was a-comin' through.]
Yet the Magic Bullet must proceed out this entry to go on to cause five wounds in Connally--though Governor and Mrs. Connally maintained he was not hit with the same bullet that hit Kennedy.
Further, Connally retained fragments which could not have come from the Magic Bullet, Commission Exhibit 399. That bullet lacked only the two grains cut from its base for analysis.
The bullet itself retained its pristine shape--a phenomenon never duplicated with such a bullet causing seven wounds in two men including two through bone. Such bullets are severely malformed, not pristine.
The first shots were obscured by the live oak tree, making it necessary for a sixth-floor shooter to rely on divine providence rather than sighting.
Oswald's fellow Marine Nelson Delgado testified to Oswald's lack of shooting skill:
Q. Did you fire with Oswald?
Delgado: Right; I was in the same line. By that I mean we were on line together, the same time, but not firing at the same position, but at the same time, and I remember seeing his. It was a pretty big joke, because he got a lot of "Maggie's drawers", you know a lot of misses, but he didn't give a darn.
Q: Missed the target completely?
Delgado: He just qualified, that's it. He wasn't as enthusiastic as the rest of us. We all loved--liked, you know, going to the range.
[The target is on a large canvas sheet. Ignominy for a novice occurs when he misses the sheet completely. Then the person in the target pit scoring the result waves a red flag or "Maggie's drawers".]
Oswald couldn't hit a stationary target, but FBI agents still spent hours badgering Delgado to make him change his story. Then when they could not, the Commission simply ignored Delgado's testimony.
Hathcock's was the only recreation using the exact parameters according to the Commission, and he states his Marines could not duplicate the shooting ascribed to Oswald.
Oswald could not have done the shooting, for the package of curtain rods he carried that morning was described in testimony of Buell Wesley Frazier and Mrs. Linnie Mae Randle to FBI agents who measured and determined in each separate description to have been 27 inches long, too short to contain the longest piece of either of the two models of Mannlicher-Carcano at issue--but exactly the length of other curtain rods in the Paine garage: 27 inches.
Not to mention no one saw Oswald carry anything into the Depository that morning. Which is not surprising since no one saw Oswald pick up any package from the post office box of A. Hidell, nor would Oswald have been authorized.
Which is not surprising, since Oswald was on the clock working at the Depository when the postal money order to Klein's was purchased.
Yet a weapon is of no use without bullets and no one can show Oswald ever bought ammunition for the rifle he didn't buy, carry into the Depository nor shoot out the window--
For the only witness to that act did not identify Oswald at the police lineup, and described his vision as "bad", yet leapt at his fifteen minutes of fame by claiming to have seen a gunman standing at a window 120 feet away, and to be able to state the man's height--
Although the Commission established that no man could be standing at the window shooting--for he would be shooting through the glass.
The consistency is the complete disconnect between the Commission's stipulations and reality. In that, the documentation is perfection itself.
