“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 Harvey 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. 22, 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.
So while Pacepa acknowledged his involvement, 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 50 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.”
We may not ever know the whole story about Oswald (or many other things re:JFK) - maybe a 100 years from now all the govt docs will be open books. Maybe not.
No doubt Fidel Castro was involved...along with a few US govt agencies and individuals/politicians.
CIA, FIB, LBJ...just to name a few
Jackie Kennedy said in her audio history that she believed LBJ was involved. (she was in a position to know)
the Kennedy assassination was an operation about as big as the current attempt to assassinate PDJT electorally
Surprised Free Republic would publish this article since they have developed a double standard.
And they published it on Dec 21 2020!
Ol’ Fidel is toward the bottom of my usual suspects list. Lotta people/institutions had motivation, so it’s hard to choose from the rogue’s gallery.

watched a doc on this story, he was set up they were all working on a CIA plot to take out castro with a lethal type of fast growing cancer that she was working on for her boss who was working for the CIA. Lee was part of the low level team, until the vile drop off he was to make and the contact never showed up and the plans had changed of which he knew nothing about.
LBJ was a nasty, corrupt, racist leftist that would do ANYTHING for power.
His infamous 1948 voting fraud got him his senate seat.
The only way we’ll ever know is if Trump is allowed to serve his second term. He might be able to break the strangle hold on power that the DS and IC have here in America. We will never get another opportunity. Whatever their involvement was, the CIA could have prevented the assignation. After seeing what they’re capable of, the odds are it was a CIA sanctioned hit. If Trump stops the steal I doubt he survives long.
“Jackie Kennedy said in her audio history that she believed LBJ was involved. (she was in a position to know)”

So sad for her. When you look at the Zapruder film you can see she is almost eyeball to eyeball with JFK when the shot took off much of his head. Nobody should have to go through something like that, not to mention being right smack dab in the line of fire.
And they published it on Dec 21 2020!

Oh Ye of Little Faith...<: <: <:
Does that make you a racist for pointing that out?
Or sexist?
Or whatever ‘they’ dream up?
AND THE BEAT GOES ON!!!!
Notice, the date is even written out, making it all the more certain it is NOT a typo etc etc etc
I only recently watched the Oliver Stone JFK movie. I knew it was about Jim Garrison’s book, and the magic bullet theory. I actually came away from the movie thinking the conspiracy to kill Kennedy was the brain trust of a giant homosexual cabal. It certainly appeared that every one involved was a faggot.
I never heard of this- thanks for posting.
Trump out to declassify every remaining document on the JFK affair and remove the reactions from those previously released. Next week.
Not sure if castro was involved, maybe.
My best guess, mafia with CIA help, and LBJ was almost certainly in om the planning.
Oswald was definitely not the only shooter. The shot shown in the Zapruder film came from the front, impossible for Oswald to do that. 3 empties in Oswald’s location, one was 5 feet or so away from the other 2. Show me a bolt action rifle that can do that. Impossible. Probably one always kept in the chamber to reduce the chance of moisture geting into the chamber and action. Removed before he got into place at the window.
Somebody had to get them the parade route ahead of time, only CIA or secret service could do that. Or LBJ himself. Otherwise they had no idea where to put shooters.
LBJ was one of the most power mad, corrupt bastards in DC, and he and the Kennedys absolutely hated each other. He had to have blackmailed JFK to get the VP seat. No way would JFK and Bobby pick him. NOT. A. CHANCE.
Jack Ruby was the mafia “fixer” for Dallas. He knew hundreds of cops, used those contsacs to get low level mafia thugs off the hook for minor burglaries, tickets, etc. Handed out hundreds of bottles off whiskey every christmas to cops, let them drink after hours (2am closing time) in his club. His job was to shut oswald up when cops and secret service didn’t shoot him dead at the scene.
JFK’s brother Bobby was attorney general, and had put several mafia bosses in prison for the long haul. He was also hot on Jimmy Hoffa’s tail. In an FBI wiretap of a mafia boss meeting indcuding Hoffa, he said they needed to “take out” Bobby. ANother, Ithink it was Carlos Marcelo from Louisiana, said no, you cut off the tail, the dog can still bite. You cut off the head, no more problem. Meaning JFK needed to go, not Bobby. Once he was gone, LBJ would kick Bobby out of the AG office in minutes.
Hoffa was never official mafia, he was not italian, but had run errands for the mob boss in Chicago from the time he was 10 or so. Here’s 50 cents kid, take this envelope over to so and so on abc street. By the time he was 18 he had a record as long as your arm, and was the enforcer for a loan shark. Don’t pay up, guess who shows up at your door and breaks your arm. The Teamsters grabbed him because he was so good at it, that’s how he “recruited” drivers for the teamsters union. Bobby Kennedy was after him big time for his involvement in numerous crimes involving violence and union money for years.
ANd JFK had slept with a mafia boss’s ex girlfriend. No matter she was an ex, mob guy got pissed, Wanted Kennedy’s head on a platter. Still considered her his “property”.
I’ve read a half dozen books with various theories, including one by the doctor who tried to keep JFK alive 15 minutes after he was shot. This would be a very long post if I got much deeper into all this stuff.
Mafia, CIA, and LBJ had the best motives to shut JFK down. Mafia bosses in prison for 20 plus, LBJ hated him and wanted lots of POWER, which JFK refused to give him, CIA was pissed because he failed to call in air strikes on the “Bay of Pigs” incident.
But Oswald was definitely not the only shooter, I’m not even sure Oswald actually hit him. He did fire 2 shots. But the kill shot came from the front. And the doctor in the ER said they found dozens of bullet fragments inside the brain. The FMJ rounds Oswald used did not break up like that. They were designed to go through and take a soldier out of the fight, not necessarily killing him. The round that hit his head was designed to break up on impact and do maximum damage.
OK I’ll shut up now...
Is there something I am missing here?
The December date is fiction as that date does not appear in the original article. It’s only in the Freerepublic version, or is that your point that I’m not getting?
