Gerald Posner

When he, Oswald, went to Mexico City, only six weeks before the assassination, he wanted to get to Cuba, to Havana, to the real revolution, as he viewed it, where Castro was, because he was sick of the Soviets. He thought that they had ruined and bastardized Marxism. He hated the United States, so he was looking now for the new place, and that was Cuba.

Then he gets rejected in Mexico City by the Cuban and the Soviet missions. We know that the CIA had to have listening devices, other surveillance on those two missions at the heart of the Cold War. Did they know that Oswald was unhinged as he was when he went to those embassies? We now know what happened because the Soviets have released their own files.

The KGB agents who dealt with him in Mexico City said, by the way, he took out a .38 caliber revolver, which he happened to kill a policeman with after the JFK assassination, slammed it on the desk, and one of the KGB agents took the pistol and emptied from the revolver the bullets. Did the CIA know that he had had that type of behavior? If so...

They should have told the FBI when he came back into the United States 10 days later. But we know from 9-11, the agencies don't share information very well. The CIA didn't share information with the FBI or the FAA or anyone else in 9-11 about two Saudi terrorists that had followed into California in 2000 that ended up on the planes. So this is what happens time and time again.

Is it a cover-up of a murder? No. What the CIA was covering up after with the Warren Commission was its own bureaucratic ineptitude. They were running as far away from Oswald as they could, which you would expect the same as the FBI would. And they basically really were covering up the fact that they were in league with the mafia to kill head of state, not Kennedy, but Fidel Castro.

And they failed seven times. They didn't even wound him. So the same Keystone cops that couldn't even kill Castro, they wanted to take Cuba back, that was clear, somehow pulled off the perfect crime in Dallas. And 62 years later, there's not a leaked memo. There's not one person with a bad conscience. There's not one time that anybody's had anything come out.

It just doesn't happen that way, except in Oliver Stone films.

So, I mean, I say only partly tongue-in-cheek that the only thing that Stone got right in the JFK film was the date on which Kennedy was killed. It's not quite that bad, but it's almost the case. He is a master at being able to make a film that has authentic film together with what he's done as recreation.
