... report, 'Lee Harvey Oswald and Mexico City (1 ), which would have resolved some of the queries. We are left to pick the available material clean, a process which still has its rewards, and waiting for the occasional drip of new material from unsuspecting quarters. In 1976 the HSCA began a search of Department of Justice and FBI files in connection with the assassination inquiry. During the search the Justice Department discovered in FBI files a copy of a memorandum prepared in 1964 for J. Edgar Hoover. In substance the memo stated that the FBI Director had learned from a reliable informant that Oswald had told two officials of the Cuban Consulate, more than a month before ...

... 800 at Kennedy airport, New York. About twelve minutes after take-off, 8.31 pm, the plane exploded and crashed into the waters off Long Island. There were no survivors. Immediately afterwards many eyewitnesses stated that they had seen a firework/flare like object rise from the surface shortly followed by Flight 800 exploding. (1) The FBI/National Transport Safety Board (NTSB hereafter) quickly discounted these reports. They instead began leaking various mechanical hypotheses to the media. (2) Author and reporter James Sanders began investigating Flight 800 about two months after the crash. His wife Elizabeth worked for TWA as a trainer of flight attendants. Elizabeth and some other TWA employees ...

... is relevant to anomalies in the handling of the case. The four versions of Silvia Durán's November 23 DFS statement With the release of the new documents, it is now abundantly clear that the visit of Oswald to the Cuban and Soviet consulates in Mexico City became, for some reason, too sensitive to be handled normally by the CIA and FBI. CIA officials, both before and after the assassination, misreported what happened, falsified documentary records, and concealed the surviving tapes of Oswald's alleged telephone conversations.(2) In this collusion the CIA had the support of a sister Mexican agency which it had helped to create, the Mexican Dirección Federal de Seguridad (Federal Security Police ...

... On Political Assassinations(1) is a very interesting essay by William Turner, 'RFK, Charles de Gaulle and the Farewell America plot', about the events leading up to the publication of the book Farewell America about the Kennedy assassination.(2) This may be marginalia but it is interesting margin- alia nonetheless. Notably, former FBI agent Turner tells us: that the book may have resulted from contact between the Garrison inquiry and the KGB. Working for New Orleans DA Jim Garrison, Turner wondered what the Soviets knew about Oswald and sent someone to contact the KGB in Mexico City. (Innocent days, eh? In the midst of the most sensitive inquiry imaginable ...

... therapy as a means of increasing human intelligence.(5) Stopped by Marconi, Sarnoff and RCA from commercially exploiting his work in the USA, and elsewhere, Tesla offered his data and inventions to foreign governments. These included the USSR-- who bought details of the particle beam weapon from him in 1937. Tesla was kept under FBI surveillance from the 1920s onward. For an academic work, Seifer's book bravely treads in areas other more traditional authors would avoid. He shows the interest prominent scientific pioneers had (and still have?) in investigating and trying to measure and define the 'paranormal'.(6) He also concludes that there is, indeed, a ...

It gets harder to swallow. Pepper has found apparent links to Dallas and Jack Ruby! After the assassination a young and FBI agent went to inspect a car, a white Mustang, which they thought might have been involved in the assassination. This is quite odd. Pepper doesn't state that it was the white Mustang driven by Ray. The real thing or a copy, Wilson and a colleague went to the abandoned car and, says Wilson, as he ...
