X (V.O.)
Money is at stake. Big money. A
hundred billion. The Kennedy brothers
target voting districts for defense
dollars. They give TFX fighter
contracts only to the counties that
are going to make a difference in
'64. These people fight back. Their
way. One day another call is made...

In a Pentagon office, a man in civilian clothing is on the
phone, his back to the screen. This is Mr. Y, X's superior
officer. Shadows pervade the room. An unshuttered window
overlooks the Potomac River and the White House.

X (V.O.)
...maybe to somebody like my superior
who's been running the "Mongoose"
program out of Florida and who has
no love for Kennedy.

VOICE ON PHONE
Bill, we're going. We need your
help.

X (V.O.)
Everything's cellurized. No one has
said "he must die," there's been no
vote, there's nothing on paper,
there's no one to blame. It's as
old as the Crucifixion: the Mafia
firing squad, one blank, no one's
guilty because everyone in the Power
Structure who knows anything has a
plausible deniability. There are no
compromising connections except at
the most secret point. But what's
paramount is that it must succeed.
No matter how many die, how much it
costs, the perpetrators must be on
the winning side and never subject
to prosecution for anything by anyone.
That is a coup d'etat.

Y
(into phone)
When?

VOICE ON PHONE
In the fall. Probably in the south.
We want you to come up with a plan...

X
He's done it before. Other countries.
Lumumba in the Congo, Trujillo, the
Dominican Republic, he's working on
Castro. No big deal. In September,
Kennedy announces the Texas trip.
At that moment, second Oswalds start
popping up all over Dallas where
they have the mayor and the cops in
their pocket. Y flies in the
assassins, maybe from the special
camp we keep outside Athens, Greece -
pros, maybe some locals, Cubans,
Maria hire, separate teams. Does it
really matter who shot from what
rooftop? Part of the scenery. The
assassins by now are dead or well
paid and long gone...

JIM
Any chance of one of them confessing
someday?

X
...don't think so. When they start
to drool, they get rid of 'em. These
guys are proud of what they did.
They did Dealey Plaza! They took
out the President of the United
States! That's entertainment! And
they served their country doing it.


You never ask a spook a question.
No point. He'll never give you a
straight answer. General Y still
thinks of himself of the handsome
young warrior who loved this country
but loved the concept of war more.

JIM
His name?

X
Does it matter? Another technician.
But an interesting thing - he was
there that day in Dealey Plaza. You
know how I know?
(Jim shakes his head)
That picture of yours. The hoboes...
you never looked deep enough...

FLASHBACK TO: one of the hobo pictures. Next to the freight
entrance of the Book Depository, Y, in a dark suit, is
nonchalantly walking past the hoboes, his back to us. The
camera closes in on Y.

X (V.O.)
I knew the man 20 years. That's
him. The way he walked... arms at
his side, military, the stoop, the
haircut, the twisted left hand, the
large class ring. What was he doing
there? If anyone had asked him,
he'd probably say "protection" but
I'll tell you I think he was giving
some kind of "okay" signal to those
hoboes - they're about to get booked
and he's telling 'em it's gonna be
okay, they're covered. And in fact
they were - you never heard of them
again.

JIM
...some story... the whole thing.
It's like it never happened.

X
It never did.
(he smiles tartly)

He was just a left wing nutcase who knew how to shoot a rifle and got lucky. Anyway, those shots were not that hard. Perhaps you have far too many Oliver Stone fictions.

[SuperFly]

Who Lee?? Hell, last thing I remember of that boy, he went up the Nung River in a Navy P.B.R. -- re-established commo with Colonel Kurtz, then terminated his command.

It was the FAIR PLAY FOR CUBA group--and those folks WERE left wing nut cases. And if it such a paradise, why are so many people risking life and prison to get out?

[igotthisguitar]

[W.T.Carl]

I think you had better check your facts. The Fair Play for Cuba group was not just one person. I had a few profs who were members when I was in college.

[igotthisguitar]

[W.T.Carl]

Like I said, a left wing nut case who could shoot and got lucky. But then again, it wasn't that hard of a shot.

[igotthisguitar]

Bumping this thread today in memory of a murdered U.S. President & the all too many still unanswered questions.

As one assasination researcher put it: "The secret service set him up, CIA & MOB took him out & FBI covered it up".

To the justice which is served in the afterlife, and beyond.

[Ya-ta Boy]

Most of the things you post are just odd and sometimes entertaining in a twisted way. This one is offensive. Very definitely offensive.

He was an MK Ultra Victim.
