[…] the London Observer.(9) His review runs to a little under 800 words. The first paragraph is a once-over of Nixon’s career (HUAC, the Checkers speech, debates with Kennedy) and then we get this: ‘In 1977 he was finally sunk when David Frost…. led him into saying on Watergate that ‘when the President does it, […]

[…] was murdered by Oswald working for the KGB. Chamish shows in some detail that the Rabin killing was a variation on the Sirhan Sirhan attack on Robert Kennedy. Yes, Rabin’s ‘assassin’ was firing at him at close range; but he didn’t fire the fatal shots. Chamish shows that the ‘assassination’ was meant to be […]
[…] Dealey Plaza. These have been painstakingly plotted and appear to be accurate. The Text section constains the entire Warren Report, Jim Marrs’ Crossfire: the Plot that Killed Kennedy (New York, Carrroll and Graf, 1989) and The Assassination of JFK: A Complete Book of Facts, an almanac-style compendium of people, places, events and ideas compiled […]
