Last Secret JFK Files Could Be Released Soon

Calling all conspiracy theorists! The National Archives is set to release the last remaining top-secret files about John F. Kennedy’s 1963 assassination, in a process that could begin by this summer. The trove of some 3,600 files, mostly from the FBI and CIA, were part of the collection assembled and sealed by the Archives, on the condition that they all be made public by October 2017.

But there’s a catch: According to the same law, President Donald Trump has the ability to block the release of any or all of the documents—if he certifies that keeping them secret is a matter of national security.

In a development where I live in Florida, there are parent’s that drop off their kids for the school bus to pick them up in the morning, but the parents are parked blocking the entrance/ exit of the development in their car just idling. I don’t know WTF this is all about but it pisses me off. I can’t clearly see cars on the main road to be able to make a left or right turn because there are several of these “parents” blocking the view of the main road parked in their cars I am assuming waiting for the school bus to pick up their perfect angels? I wonder if they are sitting there with the car idling, wouldn’t it be just as easy to just take their kids to school themselves?

You have a very good memory and put it very well. Thanks for sharing that.

(I was a handful back then!)

You little terror...Lol.

Over/under is the day Raoul Castro dies.

I’m convinced the Castros were behind the assassination (after all, JFK tried to have Fidel assassinated, they were just returning the favor).

Were that to have been acknowledged in 1963, it would be cause for war with ‘Cuber’, a very bad idea at the time given the very high probability of the Soviet Union getting sucked in and the near certainty that it would go nuclear.

As long as either Castro is alive it could still be a trigger.

The most we could do without risking a shootin’ war is the so far 54 year embargo.

For proof watch to see if the embargo is lifted within days of Raoul’s passing...

Was Uncle BS at Clinton Headquarters election night? I bet he could give a good account of that night. lol.

GHW Bush said he couldn’t remember where he was that day. What bull. Anyone over the age of 10 remembers where they were and what they were doing that day.

I was 10. I remember precisely.

[Roccus]

ICBW, but my recollection is that at the time the embargo was supposed to be 75 years.

I enjoyed the heck out ot Tim Wilson’s comedy.

Unfortunately he died early at age 52 of a massive heart attack back in 2014.

6 months after Kennedy’s death, GHW Bush was running for Congress in Texas and traveling there with Senator Goldwater. That’s when & where I met Poppy Bush at an airport in Tyler, Texas, and never forgot his icy cold blue eyes. Nothing obscure about him even then.

[plain talk]

I love these threads. Freeper IQ test.

Dugway Duke’s First Principle of Conspiracy Theory: It is impossible for the government to release information disproving a conspiracy theory. No matter what files are released, those who think there was a different conspiracy will call the release another cover-up in the conspiracy.

I was in a Catholic school at the time, too. Since Kennedy was the first Catholic President, it was almost as if the Pope had been killed.

There is a way to PROVE what happened during the shooting. Even though it is simple enough for a high school student to understand, most Americans will reject the following information.

In the Zapruder film, there are TWO times in the film we can DEFINITELY SAY a shot was fired:

1. Right after the Stemmon's sign, Connally and Kennedy are OBVIOUSLY BOTH reacting to a shot (the first reactions can be seen at frame 224).

At frame 313, Kennedy was shot in the head.

The FBI measured Zapruder's film speed by filming a clock and then counting the number of frames (183 frames in 10 seconds).

Time between frames 224 and 313 = (313 -224)/18.3 = 4.8 seconds.

You've probably never seen that number before but here is why that is significant:

There is a second way to determine the times between the shots that were fired. MOST Americans have been convinced the second method is NOT VALID but very few people have any idea WHY the second method is wrong.

You might notice the time between shots #3 and #4 is 4.8 seconds just like the Zapruder film shows the time between frame 224 and 313 is 4.8 seconds.

4.8 seconds being common to BOTH THE ZAPRUDER FILM AND THE ACOUSTICAL EVIDENCE SUGGESTS that the sounds of the shots really were recorded on the recording of the police radio channel.

Starting here, it is not terribly difficult to wade through the rest of the proof that shows that a conspiracy killed President Kennedy. Along the way to completion, all FIVE of the shots must match the Zapuruder film timing and the wounds caused by each shot must match what the medical information shows. The HSCA in 1978 only indicated they had evidence of FOUR shots but the figure shows five. It is very important to understand, for example why FIVE vs. FOUR.

If this was easy, you would have known the truth decades ago.

The Zapruder movie sure makes it look like Kennedy’s being shot from the side or the front, as his head moves “back and to the left.

The people who react that way to being shot from the front or side are movie stuntmen. Of course, in such cases they aren't actually being shot. So, yes, your eyes are lying.

If ever I am called to account for the use of a firearm, may the Lord spare me from a trial by jurors whose whole understanding of firearms is shaped by TV and movies.

G. H.W Bush was working in the oil biz and thinking about what it would be like to be elected to the House of Representatives in 1967

I don't think there's anything to the theories, but the name George Bush does turn up twice in the files.

Once is in reference to a CIA agent the FBI briefed about the assassination. It was probably another George W. Bush who worked for the CIA at the time, but he says he wasn't briefed.

The other reference is to a George H.W. Bush who called in on the day of the assassination to say that he had heard someone making threats to kill Kennedy when he came to Houston.

Apparently, that was the future president. I think the conclusion is that Bush had nothing to do with the assassination, but the guy who worked for the CIA and says he wasn't briefed is one reason these theories are circulating.

Zapruder was in on the conspiracy.

It was on a Friday
Got my days messed up there (only 50+ years ago) - I remember the funeral on our black and white TV on Monday the 25th, most everyone stayed home that day.

I thought I was happening into a serious discussion quickly to find out I stepped into a reinstutued Heavens Gate meeting

[El Cid]

Ever wonder if the assassination conspiracy was actually made up of a group of cuckolded husbands?

That is one of the main problems I had with the 'assassination conspiracy'. The list of angry parties that had a reason to off JFK could have filled Madison Garden.

1) Cuckolded husbands
2) Angry fathers of the women used as JFK's disposable harem
3) Castro (for JFK's fumbled assassination attempts)
4) Cuban freedom fighters (for having been deserted at the Bay of Pigs)
5) CIA (for having been forced to desert the Cuban freedom fighters
6) The Mafia (for what they'd perceive to be JFK's double-crosses)
7) South Vietnamese friends of President Diem who had just gotten assassinated in a coup (which I'm sure they would have perceived as being backed by JFK).
8) LBJ - just because he was a power-mad cretin who knew he was on the chopping block.

And probably a host of others. Oswald, the crazy guy, is as good as any.
