Covert
Operations Related to Dealey Plaza
As Bill
Simpich has suggested, we should not view the assassination of President
Kennedy as a typical homicide, and look for means, motive and opportunity, collect
the evidence and facts that support a particular theory and pin the tail on the
selected donkey, but instead we should view what happened at Dealey Plaza as a
covert intelligence operation and approach the case from that angle.
Since one of the first things covert operators do when they start a mission is to give it a code name, I call it the Dealey Plaza Operation (DPO), and consider what happened there a covert operation regardless of Lee Harvey Oswald's role as a shooter or a patsy.

The
Department of Defense Dictionary of Military and Associated Terms (Joint
Publication JP1-02), defines "covert operation" as
"an operation that is so planned and executed as to conceal the
identity of or permit plausible denial by the sponsor."
While
that may be the case, that doesn't stop us from figuring out how it was
conducted and who conducted it, even if they utilized black propaganda and
disinformation deception to disguise themselves.
In fact
the continued "active measure" use of the disinformation campaign to
blame the Dealey Plaza Operation on Fidel Castro Cuban Communists (what Peter
Dale Scott calls the Phase One), and its rejection and failure, provides us
with a window into the "wilderness of mirrors" that allows us to see
who is propagating the Castro Cuban Commie cover story.
Defining
the MO - Modus Operandi of Dealey Plaza not only tells us how it was accomplished,
but gives us some clear insight into who had the capabilities of doing such a
thing and who in fact was behind the curtain, masterminding the operation and
pulling the strings on the puppets and pawns.
Other
similar covert operations that utilized such a "military style"
attack on a motorcade can also be reviewed - the attacks on Arch Duke Ferdinand
100 years ago, on Nazi Heinrich Himmler, the July 20, 1944 failed coup attempt
on Hitler that the CIA studied to be used against Castro, and the 1962 attack
on French President Charles deGaul are prime examples of similar MOs that
should be studied in order to better understand the Dealey Plaza
Operation.
In
addition, many of the primary participants and those connected to the Dealey
Plaza Operation were involved in other, similar intelligence operations that
are worth reviewing to see how they operate and intertwine.
So I've
begun a list of Covert Operations that are related to the Dealey Plaza
Operation and when reviewed, can give us some insight into what really happened
there.
For
starters, one of the first things I recognized in reviewing the Warren
Commission and related records is that whatever you believe happened at Dealey
Plaza and whoever you believe was involved, it had something to do with Cuba -
especially the Castro revolution and Bay of Pigs.
1)
Castro Revolution in Cuba. Removing Batista from power in Cuba was a goal of a
number of covert intelligence operations, some supporting Castro.
2) Bay
of Pigs - April 17, 1961.
In that
regard, it doesn't take much research to establish that those who were behind
the failed Bay of Pigs operation had previously been involved in the Guatemalan
Coup of 1954 - Operation SUCCESS, and most if not all of the Bay of Pigs CIA
officers had contributed to that mission, especially Frank Wisner, David Atlee
Phillips, David Morales, et al.
3)
Guatemalan Coup 1954 - Operation Success.
Of
course the primary suspect and likely patsy in the Dealey Plaza Operation - Lee
Harvey Oswald had been involved in a number of previous covert operations and
organizations, especially the Civil Air Patrol (CAP) and United States Marine
Corps (USMC) before his defection.
4) Use
of CAP and USMC in Covert Military Intelligence Operations. The CAP
was founded in Texas by D. H. Byrd, owner of the Texas School Book Depository
(TSBD), while Oswald was affiliated with the New Orleans branch that included
Captain David Ferrie and others. The CAP's Pennsylvania chapter made newspaper
headline when it considered using select CAP cadets to attend the US Army
Military Intelligence school at Fort Holabird, near Baltimore, Maryland.

While
that plan was squelched publicly by the CAP leaders, it apparently continued
quietly, as Lee Harvey Oswald was put through a similar program that taught him
covert operational techniques, procedures and practices. That Oswald utilized
covert intelligence crafts and techniques was not only my conclusion but that
of former CIA agent Bob Baer, whose JFK Declassified and Following Oswald six
part TV series attempted to falsely follow the original Castro Cuban Commie
cover story that was laid out before the assassination and made a psychological
warfare part of the Dealey Plaza Operation as part of the deceptions laid out
to protect the actual sponsors.
5)
Castro Cuban Commie Cover story
Reporter
Joseph Goulden, one of the first to promote the Phase One Castro Cuban Commie
cover story by egging Assistant Dallas DA William Alexander to charge Oswald
with committing the assassination to "further of a communist
conspiracy," did attend the Army Intelligence School at Fort Holibird, and
became a close and trusted media asset of David Atlee Phillips, who was
responsible for the psychological radio aspects of Operation SUCCESS.

As we
can see from the work of Peter Dale Scott, John Newman and Jefferson Morley,
among others, Lee Harvey Oswald's defection was itself a covert intelligence
operation planned in advance, as the military and government records reveal,
and the CIA's Counter-Intelligence (CI) staff and Office of Naval Intelligence
(ONI) kept a close watch on Oswald when he returned from the USSR, went to
Mexico City and returned to Dallas in order to be put into position be be the
patsy in the Dealey Plaza Operation.

Oswald's Defection was a covert intelligence operation designed to flush out a
suspected double-agent spy.
While
Oswald was away there were two covert ops related to him that occurred, one was
the attempted purchase of jeeps, using his name, and the other was the Houma
Bunker raid, involving some of those who Oswald would hook up with when he
relocated to New Orelans, including David Ferrie, Gordon Novel and others. In
this operation, guns and munitions were removed, either legally or illegally,
from a bunker in Houma and transported to New Orleans.

Bunker Raid. For more on the Houma Bunker Raid see: JFKcountercoup: The Houma Bunker
Raid Revisted
8) Among
the still secret JFK Assassination records is the ONI Defector File, that the
ONI has fought to keep from being released, which may have a bearing on
Oswald's defection and return to the USA.

Trail of the ONI Defector File
9) The
Hale Twins black bag - break into the apartment of President's mistress. Back
in Dallas Oswald obtained a job at a sheet metal shop from the Texas Employment
Commission (TEC). Like the employment agency in England run by the spies in The
Spy Who Came in From the Cold, the TEC included a Mrs. Hale, who assisted
Oswald in obtaining work. Mrs. Hale's husband was a former FBI agent who worked
for security at the major defense contractor General Dynamics and they had two
twin sons who attended Arlington Texas high school with Oswald. Under the watchful
eyes of an FBI stakeout team, the twin sons broke into the apartment of Judyth
Cambell Extner, who was having affairs with President Kennedy and Chicago Mob
boss Sam Giancana at the same time, and passing messages and documents between
them.
10) Many
people believe that when Oswald returned from USSR to Texas, George
deMohrenschildt took him under his wing, and then before leaving for Haiti on
business, passed Oswald on to the Paines as his intelligence baby sitter. In
February 1963 deMohrenschildt arranged for a house party for Lee Oswald to meet
Michael Paine, but Marina met Michael's wife Ruth instead, and Oswald had an
extended conversation with Volkmar Schmidt, who encouraged Oswald to kill Gen.
Walker.
11)
Besides killing the President and a Dallas cop and wounding Governor Connolly,
Oswald is also accused of taking a shot at former Gen. Walker on April 10,
1963, the night of the day the USS Thresher sank with all hands. The Walker
shooting is a key element in the Dealey Plaza Operation, and because Oswald had
written to then Navy Secretary John Connally from Russia seeking assistance in
returning home, and a group calling itself JFCOTT - Justice for Crew of the
Thresher visited employees of the defense contractor (Bendix) that made the
malfunctioning part in the Thresher, threatening to kill the Secretary of the
Navy, as Oswald was alleged to have also done, it appears that multiple motives
were being laid out before the Dealey Plaza Operation, as part of the
deceptions.
12)
Similar to the visit the JFCOTT men in suits played to the Bendix employees,
two anti-Castro Cubans and someone identified as Oswald visited Sylvia Odio and
her sister, mentioning Oswald's marine background and his ability to kill the
President and/or Secretary of the Navy. Odio wrote to her father, then in a
Cuban prison for his assistance to a group that was planning on shooting Castro
with a bazooka, as it was planned by Antonio Veciana and David Atlee
Phillips.
13)
Oswald's summer of 1963 in New Orleans was an event filled time where he
engaged in Fair Play for Cuba Committee (FPCC) activities at time when the
CIA's David Phillips was monitoring the group and starting active covert
measures against it. Besides getting into a fist fight and arrested with DRE
Cubans, Oswald also passed out leaflets on the New Orleans warf where US Navy
ships were docked and his leaflets became part of his ONI file.

14)
Oswald's visit to Mexico City and visits to the Cuban and Soviet embassies
there provides a number of significant leads, including those to the Cuban and
Soviet spies and agents at the embassies and so-called "Twist Party,"
but also to a number of others - including visits to the Quaker Hostel and
Sanbourns restaurant where he was reportedly seen leaving on the back of a
motorcycle headed for the Cuban embassy to get a visa.
15)
Project Paperclip - Bell Helicopter, where Michael Paine worked, General
Dynamics, Collins Radio, LTV and other connected Dallas Defense contractors
participted in Project Paperclip, that ensured Nazi German scientists were
gainfully employed in the USA.
16) Mongoose - The post-Bay of Pigs covert ops coonducted by Gen. Lansdale, William Harvey et al.
17) After the October 1962 Missile Crisis, and the replacement of Harvey with Desmond Fitzgerald, CIA Cuban covert ops continued out of JMWABE, including a number of planned attacks on Castro while he road in an open jeep (such as Pathfinder).
18) Parrott Jungle - In the months and weeks leading up to the assassination Oswald was inentionally impersonated at a number of locations - including the Nuclear power museum in Tennessee and the Parrott Jungle in Florida, neither of which were adequately investigted.
19) Alpha 66 in Dallas. Shenon says the Castro Cuban Commies in Mexico City may have offered Oswald help in escaping, and former CIA agent Bob Baer says that Castro so infiltrated Alpha 66 they could have provided the Hallendle Street safe-house as a refuge, and it could have been Oswald's destination.
20) The CIA conduit Catherwood Fund financed the Catholic Welfare and their Cuban refuge medical clinnics in Florida, Louisiana and Texas, as well as providing spiritual guidence, such as that given by Father Walter Machann, patron of the Dallas Cuban community. As Sylvia Odio's confessor, he knew of the visit by Oswald and two Cubans. The Catholic Welfare in New Orleans also loaned the laundry truck to those who burglarized the munitions from the Houma bunker.
21) Oswald at TSBD. If the assassination of the President at Dealey Plaza was indeed a covert intelligence operation and not the lone act of a deranged mad man, then it was a controlled situation, where everything was under control of the operation, especially Dealey Plaza, the Grassy Knoll and the TSBD and was timed to the minute. Indeed, the assassination could only have taken place as it did within a short - time span, when the workers were on lunch - from 12 pm to 1 pm, a small window of opportunity for the Sixth Floor Sniper. How Oswald obtained his job there, who ran the TSBD company and who owned the building are all points that come into play in that short space of time, and were an integral part of the Dealey Plaza operation.
22) Watergate - E. Howard Hunt, G. Gordon Liddy, Frank Forini Sturgis, anti-Castro Cubans, Eugenio Martinez, et. al.
16) Mongoose - The post-Bay of Pigs covert ops coonducted by Gen. Lansdale, William Harvey et al.
17) After the October 1962 Missile Crisis, and the replacement of Harvey with Desmond Fitzgerald, CIA Cuban covert ops continued out of JMWABE, including a number of planned attacks on Castro while he road in an open jeep (such as Pathfinder).
