Russian Disinformation and the
Kennedy Assassination - By William Kelly
Vasili Mitrokhin
Disinformation
is defined by Merriam-Webster as “false information deliberately and often
covertly spread in order to influence public opinion or obscure the truth,” and
by Oxford as “false information which is intended to mislead, especially
propaganda issued by a government organization to a rival power or the media, a
government inspired disinformation campaign.”
Unlike
simple misinformation, it isn’t “disinformation” unless its source is a
government organization and it is intended to deceive and influence public
opinion.
The
very fact that such intelligence tradecraft and disinformation were utilized at
all is evidence if not proof that whatever happened there was not the work of a
lone deranged gunman but a much more sophisticated and distinct covert intelligence
operation that was designed to shield its actual sponsors by the use of such
tactics and deceptions.
As a
basic premise, and the only one that is capable of incorporating all of the
known facts and evidence, is that the assassination of President Kennedy was conceived
and conducted as an intelligence operation, and when viewed as such an
operation, it all makes sense, although identifying the MO – Modus Operandi
does not name the actual sponsor.
The
most prolific disinformation to come out of Dealey Plaza is the original Phase
One cover story that the assassination was a conspiracy, albeit a Castro Cuban
Commie (– CCC) one. That this disinformation campaign continues today is also
indicative that the intelligence network responsible for the Dealey Plaza
operation is still functioning. We can see what they call “active measures” in promoting this false conspiracy theory in the works of Brian Latell, Phil Shenon and Bob Baer.
And
as House Select Committee on Assassinations (HSCA) investigator Dan Hardway has
noted, the source of most of the Castro Cuban Commie allegations can be traced
back to those with direct ties to one person – David Atlee Phillips, the
director of psychological warfare and propaganda for Operation Success (Guatemala)
and the Bay of Pigs, who was responsible for the CIA’s monitoring of the Cuban
and Soviet embassies in Mexico City when the accused assassin was there.
Just
as the sources of the CCC disinformation campaign can be traced back to one
man, David Atlee Phillips, all of the Soviet disinformation related to the Kennedy
assassination can be attributed to one person – Vasili Mitrohkin, the
self-described KGB archivist who defected to the British and spilled the beans
on the KGB at Dealey Plaza in the book The Sword and the Shield.
Of
the Soviet KGB disinformation on the Kennedy assassination, each item can be
viewed as a separate operation, and deciphered, using the STASM formula for
tracing propaganda, as developed by Paul Linebarger, the former US Army
psychological warfare specialist who wrote the book on propaganda.
Linebarger,
as a professor at the Center for International Studies at Johns Hopkins
University, taught more than one generation of CIA agents, including David
Atlee Phillips and Joseph Smith, as well as E. Howard Hunt and Edward Lansdale,
who Linebarger described as having “black minds.”
While
the financial support Mitrohkin says the KGB gave Mark Lane and Joachim Joesten
may be used to discredit them both, Lane is quite a controversial character
without the KGB support.
As
for Joesten, his book “Assassin or Fall Guy” was a major factor in the shaping
of European attitudes towards the assassination, and their general recognition that
the murder was not only a conspiracy but a coup d’etat. Just one point of
reference is Joesten’s chapter/article on the Warren Report’s description of
how a German publication had the scoop on Oswald’s link to the Walker shooting.
That portion of the Warren Report was written by Pentagon historian Alfred
Goldberg, and Joestein’s critique is pretty penetrating.
But
the late Bill Turner, who worked closely with Garrison, says that the Paese
Sera article did not come to the attention of Garrison until after he began his
investigation, sparked by witnesses who linked Oswald with Bannister and
Ferrie, especially the Clinton witnesses who testified to the Grand Jury that
indicted Shaw.
Of
the disinformation operations Mitrohkin says were launched by the KGB to deceive
the public about the Kennedy assassination, Robert Lipka is the most
interesting yet ignored case. Lipka, a former NSA clerk, was identified by Mitrohkin
as a KGB double-agent as a means of establishing Mitrohkin’s bonafides.
Years
after he left the NSA Lipka was arrested by the FBI based on Mitrohkin’s
report. At his first preliminary hearing Lipka acknowledge having secret NSA
documents and passing copies on to the KGB in exchange for money. One of the
documents, Lipka said, included the name of the real assassin of President
Kennedy.
With
that the judge ended the proceedings, but as Lipka was being led away, a
reporter asked him what the name of the real assassin and Lipka replied “Luis
Angel Castillo.”

Eddie Bayo's relative Luis Angel Castillo linked to apparent MK-Ultra assassination plots
As somebody who has done a lot of research on the Luis Angel Castillo story, and think there's a lot there that needs to be said, I feel compelled to add that my best recollection is that Luis Angel Castillo said that he was in a building above Dealey Plaza, but that he does not recall firing a weapon. The wild thing about the Castillo story is that assuming he was hypnotized, his memories by definition are going to be suspect.
Soviets did a lot to be present in the U.S. internal matters thru the Kennedy Dallas killing. Just from the start.
Same jewish oligarchy that masterminded jfks as assassination is behind the Russian hoax. The masses are angry with what these oligarchies ar doing to humanity. The russian hoax diversion I believe is tied to the 100 year anniversary of judeo bolshevism overthrowing czar and later murdered his entire family. Also may 29 is jfks 100th birthday god bless him in heaven also June 8 is 50 years since israel murdered 34 navy sailors on uss l iberty. Also wd are coming up on mlk and rfk assassination next year. After stidying jfk assassination so long I feel I can dtect jewish propaganda and diversion. How can workd unite to end fraudulent banking system t h at is the Eternal spring that allows the criminal oligarchy to continue to mess the world up?
