Declassified CIA report concluded director led 'cover up' of Kennedy assassination investigation
Fox News ^ | October 10, 2015 | Fox News

A declassified CIA report concludes former agency Director John McCone withheld information about the assassination of President John F. Kennedy Jr., according to a recent news story.

The 2013 report, declassified last fall, concludes that McCone, who ran the spy agency when Kennedy was fatally shot in November 1963, kept information from the Warren Commission during its investigation into the assassination.

The report’s author, CIA historian David Robarge, writes that McCone and other top CIA officials were part of a "benign cover-up" to keep the commission focused on what the agency believed at the time was the "best truth … that Lee Harvey Oswald, for as yet undetermined motives, had acted alone," according to Politico Magazine.

The mob knew about Marilyn Monroe, Judith Campbell Exner and the other women. They didn’t have to “take him out” physically, they just had to get the word out about his sordid sex life. He would have been voted out and it would have all been all clean and legal.

I’ve always thought it was that white Christian conservative cop cloaked in a confederate flag of invisibility mistaking Kennedy for a young transgender black kid in a hoody. You can’t see him but he’s sitting right next to Jacky in the films.

The whole world saw what happened, and 52 years later, we still don’t know what happened.

Oswald did it...if you go to Dallas, you realize that it was a gimme shot to anyone with basic marksmanship skills. All three of them.

The idea that some SS agent jumps off the car and says he is going to lunch -have a nice day - is so ludicrous I can’t believe they are still spinning that story.

But that is what the dude on the left of the car claims

Even the Warren report stated the FBI had to shim the scope to acquire a target on that weapon.

I couldn’t find in the article what the suppressed
information actually was. Did I miss something?

I read elsewhere that the Nixon/Elvis picture is the most requested image in the Library of Congress.

You have to go to the site to appreciate the tight quarters...he was so close, and from a cat-bird seat to boot.

he didn’t need a scope...regular sites would have been enough

Oswald apparently worked for the CIA. That is why you never have or ever will see Oswald's financial records.

Is that why most experts could never duplicate what he did?

This would fit in with Oswald appearing in a paper that said he slapped down his passport and was ready to go to Russia.

Double Agent

If it was a conspiracy, who would ever give Oswald responsibility for anything?

If it was, he was the fall guy.

Check out the head of the CIA in Dallas at the time of the assassination. I am not surprised that the Director of the CIA protected his people.

I was a young woman when The CIA and The Cult of Intelligence came out. I read and reread it and wondered why wasn’t this all over the news!
I’m less naive today:)

While not a conspiracy kind of person, there are centralized powers, no doubt. And they make BIG decisions. Still do.

Apparently, if recent books and interviews are to be believed, Jackie was convinced LBJ was behind the assassination.
