This (7 May 2001) piece by Robert Parry of Consortium still softpedals the true depth of the right wing conspiracy and flying monkey circus that has taken charge.

Still what is said here about the quisling press is worth repeating.

Hi John -
Thanks for the responses. I saw where Clinton in fact had declassified the PFIAB records on his last day in office, an act which in and of itself is a good thing. But it begs the question of who now has the power to do that kind of thing (Dubya) in the absence of any successor entity to the ARRB. And of course the other notable example of post-ARRB confusion occurred when Yeltsin gave Clinton a bunch of the Soviet-era documents in 1999 in Germany.
Here's a link to an article I wrote back then. The link wasn't functioning as of this morning, so I am attempting to attach a hard copy to the body of the email, as well. (At the time I wrote this, I had not received the final letter from Gary Stern saying that the Archivist was going to wuss out of the issue.) Looking forward to talking about all of this more in Dallas.

Kennedy, and that the proliferation of theories as well as research into a conspiracy in the case makes all of them wrong. . . .

To: GSG
Date: Thu, 29 Nov 2001 01:49:59 -0500

What you call "the obvious" is not hard to accept, it is just impossible to prove. No matter what you speculate about Oswald (and I must assume you didn't know him well enough to make these guesses), you cannot put him on the sixth floor of the TSBD at the time of the shooting, prove he fired a rifle that day, prove he owned the rifle and pistol alleged to be the "official weapons", demonstrate that the shots are possible using that rifle, explain the medical and ballistic evidence of a shot from the front as well as from the back, or create the wounds and other damage done by bullets that day without at least two people firing. That is the baseline evidence of a conspiracy.

Much of Jim Garrison's investigation and charges is being vindicated by the new files, I suggest you read DiEugenio's Destiny Betrayed and Bill Davy's Let Justice Fall. Penn Jones did more original research on the case than you ever will, and was an honest journalist. Groden compiled a great deal of good photographic evidence showing the official version is wrong, and worked to preserve and make public the visual record of that event. Is there something wrong with selling photos on a street corner? Is there a rule you have to be in the middle of the street? Groden certainly knows the case better than Mr. Brandt does.

Your snideness and innuendo are not argument or evidence of anything. Try reading a few books, like Sylvia Meagher's Accessories After the Fact, or Howard Roffman's Presumed Guilty, or Peter Dale Scott's Deep Politics in the Death of JFK. Why is it so hard to imagine that more than a lone nut might have planned or plotted to kill President Kennedy when he was bucking the major political forces and institutions in those years?

There is and has been a growing body of hard evidence that both debunks the Warren Commission and proves a conspiracy for many long years. I don't know what you have been doing with your time since then, I've been reading and researching.

GSG letter regarding John Judge letter to Jacqueline Flood

GSG wrote:

Perhaps the author of the e-mail to which I am referring has not read any of Robert Groden's "excellent books", or if he has, the author undoubtedly has no idea of what an excellent book really is. Groden is a self-serving, self-styled "expert" in photographic analysis, who at one time was selling photos on a Dallas street corner. His credentials as a photo analysist were debunked when he was a witness for the defense in the O. J. Simpson civil trial,

Jim Garrison? Penn Jones? These are supposed to be credible investigators and writers?

May I suggest that we remember the life and legacy of JFK, instead of trying to dredge up mysterious conspirators and devious plots in his death.

Why is it so difficult the accept the obvious: that Lee Harvey Oswald, a misfit who wanted to achieve greatness, assured his place in history by killing the President.

Where is the solid evidence of a conspiracy?

Mail followup from David Cogswell (reprinted with permission)

Great letter John [see JJ mail to JF], horrible article. You got me inspired and I fired off a letter to her myself. Here it is:

Dear Ms Floyd,

Your profile of Mr. Brandt has some interest as a personality sketch. If he were a butterfly collector, it would matter less that you stayed entirely on the surface and never delved into the substance of the huge subject you opened up. You pass on his conclusions about a matter that is still controversial with far-reaching implications, with nothing more to back them up than a character study of the man who holds the conclusions.

He seems like a nice enough man and probably sincere in his beliefs, though it takes a little more than that for me to adopt his beliefs wholesale, and I think it should for you too. Your attitude of blasé indifference toward the subject of the assassination would seem to disqualify you from drawing conclusions and passing them on in a context that some may assume is authoritative. It reminds me of reviewers who pan a work of art without taking the trouble to learn about what is behind it.

It is certainly more comforting to pass off the assassination as the work of one whacko who just got so lucky his shots performed murderous miracles. And it's fine for you to hold on to the more comforting thought. It really doesn't fit with the facts, however. I have no idea how Mr. Brandt came to his conclusions and your article made no effort to answer that question. It only said he had studied the subject at length and that was his conclusion. I'm always curious how a person could reason from the facts to that conclusion.

Some day you might want to delve into the subject yourself. It certainly does hold some fascination. A vast majority have always rejected the official conclusion because it was so riddled with flaws. Even the House of Representatives concluded it was a conspiracy in the Committee on Assassinations in the 1970s, but the establishment media tend to embrace the Warren Report's elaborately constructed lone assassin theory, apparently because of the disturbing political implications of a conspiracy that involved highly placed officials.

Did you ever see the Zapruder film? It was hidden away in a vault for the first several years after the assassination so the population didn't have the benefit of seeing with their own eyes how Kennedy was thrown backwards like a rag doll hit with a cannonball when he was shot. How anyone can see that and conclude he was shot from the rear is a testament to how a belief can overrule what is plain as day to the senses.

If you ever get curious, take a look at Crossfire by Jim Marrs, another Texan who teaches a university course about the assassination. It's quite fascinating and full of facts that will show you what all the fuss is about. It's at least worth the trouble to take a look at the arguments. It may enhance your perspective and help you to be a more canny observer of current affairs.

Best wishes,

David Cogswell

We haven't cleaned up our last messes yet, now we are planning new ones. There is a pattern here. War is a laboratory to test weapons and people alike. Both GI's and the enemy are guinea pigs. The ecocide, etnocide and genocide in Vietnam is still an unassessed heritage of our war there. Agent Orange, Gulf War syndrome and the new bio-weapons in Colombia take their toll on GI's and the population being attacked. We have unleashed so much death in the world, and weapons that just keep on killing decades down the line. Afghanistan was already dealing with 10 million land mines, now there is new unexploded anti-personnel cluster bombs as well. I am sure depleted uranium weapons are part of the picture there too. Here is a look back at the technology of death we rained down on a small country 40 years ago.

Subject: Ritalin's effects
11 Jan 2002
I worked for ten years with the international movement of victims of forced drugging, toxic drugging, electroshock, insulin shock and lobotomy / psychosurgery, and other forms of invasive and destructive "therapy". Seven million children are forced to take Ritalin now by the school systems.

This article exposes some of its potency and brain-damaging effects. It was exposed that the diagnostic terms Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) and Oppositional Defiance Disorder (ODD) were created in collusion with the pharmaceutical industy that then claimed Ritalin would "cure" them. This brings multi-billion dollars in profits to these huge industries, like Pharmica, which has several representatives in the White House chain of command at present.

Whatever "benefit" is supposedly derived from this massive drugging of young people, whose brains are even more vulnerable than adults and still growing, it must be weighed against the simple fact that for hundreds of years we have had schools and children and communities that have survived, grown, and been educated without these drugs. There are other alternatives.

I, for one, hope that Oppositional Defiance Dis/order is never cured. I also hope that the pure joy that children have in learning and matching their creative curiosity with the tools they need will not be buried in institutional warehouses that are merely trying to control them for several hours a day. The "attention deficit" is on the part of a society that cannot overcome the damage done by lack of community and family support and tv-driven consciousness to allow education to take place.

Subject: Studies in Intelligence - Max Holland's Chicanery
29 Jan 2002
Max Holland is still trying to peddle this absurd notion that Paese Sera's article on Permindex was the only reason Garrison or others believed there was CIA involvement in the JFK assassination, and that this alone is the basis for Oliver Stone's film and for the public suspicions. Those of us in the research community know how small the circle of Americans is that have ever heard of Permindex or it's relation to Clay Shaw and the JFK events. Holland's thesis is allegedly based on his

"scholarly detective work makes perhaps the best use to date of the rich inventory of documents that were declassified at the direction of the Assassination Records Review Board (ARRB)."

I suppose he's never noticed John Newman's book based on the same "rich inventory" called Oswald and the CIA, which never mentions Permindex at all. Those of us slammed by Holland from the start of COPA, and present at the ARRB hearings and events, knew his agenda was set not on "scholarship" but on attack. His main push back then was to be sure files were released on RFK, which he and Guss Russo hoped would prove another false thesis that JFK's murder was "blowback" from RFK's alledged plots against Castro.

Holland is reduced, as was Russon, to relying on notes, minutes and reminiscenses of the likes of Gen. Edward Lansdale, Richard Helms, William Casey and the pantheon of "honorable men", who of course would never engage in deception of any kind about history. Maybe every awful suspicion we have about the good old USA and its intelligence apparatus is due to a slander campaign by the KGB, but you can't convince anyone who has done a bit of homework. Expect more of the same and worse from this source, and be ready to counter it.

We know much more now about Operation Gladio and the Propaganda Due covert operations aimed at stopping communists from ever being elected in Italy, with a great deal of help from the American CIA. And we know much more about Shaw (Destiny Betrayed by Jim DiEugenio, and Let Justice Fall by Bill Davy, and more to come from the files) and his relation to intelligence and the assassination plots. The new files do more to bear out Garrison's thesis than to discount it. There is still an ongoing interest in the publishing world in any book that discounts Garrison or Oliver Stone, who told his story in the film JFK. But you have to ask yourself which organization has planted the most disinformation in the press about the death of JFK, here and abroad, the KGB or the CIA?

I have long contended that "UFO's" are really terrestrial craft, developed by Nazi scientists first in WWII, and used but kept secret by the US when they were brought here and to Canada to continue their work. I call them Unrecognized Fascist Observatories, and they are part of what I call hidden technology. William S. Burroughs said, "If this was the middle ages and Magellan was an American, and he discovered that the world was round not flat, we wouldn't tell anyone so we could attack from the rear." That's the mentality.

Anyway, here is a list of unclassified (much more is not) DOD films of flying discs, including the Avrocar model. We are supposed to think they are either swamp gas reflections or men from Mars. When I studied the reports in the Pentagon library, though, they were coming in and out of military bases in most situations. Does this mean there is not intelligent life on other planets? I hope not, having found so little here. It just means that "flying saucers" are not evidence of their existence, and that "alien abductions" are not likely. After all, if you are smart enough to cross interstellar space to get here, wouldn't you be smart enough to turn around?

The Pentagon Hollywood Axis and how it works. Recently released "We Were Soldiers" is an apologia for the genocide in Vietnam made like a Battan film from WWII with the same apolitical unit morality and tears back home at the base among the officer's wives. Human suffering is human suffering, but setting up military bases in another country, after refusing to allow elections and establishing a dictatorial regime ten years before, doesn't make us an "innocent bystander" to the local response. However rewriting Vietnam and overcoming the "syndrome" (i.e. anti-war sentiment and repulsion at genocide) is critical right now for the coming generation.

Subject: Was There A Conspiracy?
24 Mar 2002
Yes, Hillary, there is a conspiracy, a vast right-wing conspiracy, but it goes way beyond the goons who tried to discredit your husband and even beyond Mellon-Scaife and the other funders of the conservative propaganda machine. I saw Brock on C-SPAN today, and was bemused by his shocked recognition, after years of toadying, that these reactionary goons will lie, cheat, steal and smear. But the real conspiracy behind "Monicagate" (around here is was called "Zippergate") was centered in the two women who began the scandal and exposed the affair:

Linda Tripp (GS-13 Army Intelligence, White House leftover from the Bush years, former personal secretary to Richard Secord and the Delta Force covert operations that led into Contragate), who began taping her calls from Monica.

Lucianne Goldberg (North American Newspaper Alliance stringer/operative). NANA was a spy operation since it's formation by Ian Fleming's British Intelligence circle, postwar US intelligence figure Ernest Cuneo -- mentor to Drew Pearson and Jack Anderson, the masters of selective declassification -- and Texas oil man Ivor Bryce, when Lucianne's husband Sidney Goldberg was hired by Fleming to be the "Russian desk". Sidney in turn employed Priscilla Johnson (later McMillan) to interview the "defector" Lee Harvey Oswald in Moscow, at the urging of her Office of Naval Intelligence plant at the US Embassy there, Richard Snyder, and also Aline Mosby, who did a similar job establishing ONI "defector" Oswald's credentials. Lucianne continued planting disinformation through NANA, took a job with the Watergate CREEPs, working to dig out dirt on Nixon's political opponents in the 1972 election, and more recently served as a publicity agent for LAPD racist cop Mark Furman in the OJ Simpson spectacle.

These two are part of the real conspiracy, the assassination by innuendo and scandal of a President, by two experienced intelligence handlers. Monica may have been victim or ally, it remains to be seen. The right wing was more than happy to pick up the trail and send in the bloodhounds, and no doubt were contacted to do just that. But the removal of a President from office is not left to the dogs, they send in the professionals. As always, there is more to the story. But on Clinton's inauguration day, George H W Bush, known as "Poppy" to the family, left town and the White House saying, "I'll give him his term, then I'm coming back." And, here we are.

He concludes by saying that the US was never meant to be a democracy and that democracies corrupt governments. Instead, we have to be a republic, though how that is run in his mind is unclear. By "patriots" no doubt, once all the "traitors" are hung. This quote on the JFK matter [from another article on the same site --ratitor] should tell you enough:

"There have, of course, been men of outstanding moral stature, for example, Supreme Court Justice William J. Brennan Jr, U.S. Senator George Mitchell and President John F. Kennedy (whose assassination in 1961, probably involving the CIA, the FBI, the Mafia, military intelligence, American supporters of Israel and two future U.S. Presidents, Nixon and Bush Sr., was the first coup d'etat in the history of the U.S.)"

Subject: New MLK Assassination Suspect
6 Apr 2002
The following story appeared on the newswire recently concerning a "confession" by an alleged King assassination plotter. It is not credible in my view because it reduces the plot to the Ku Klux Klan and a $100,000 payoff. Note that the confessor waited until all the other plotters were dead, and plans to do a book. Also note that the FBI is "taking this very seriously", even though they are "not investigating" any link to Wilson's father. The timing of the confession guarantees news coverage.

In any case, there may be a modicum of either truth or falsehood in the story that can enlighten. King's case remains unsolved and the files unreleased. But it seems canaries sing for their suppers quite often following the lines in songbooks we already wrote. King's family has no comment.

Work continues on two ideas that sprang from the November COPA conference. An International Network of Deep Politics Researchers (INDPR) has formed to share information on the real history and events of September 11, 2001. Also, a proposed tabloid of current information and research on the three major assassinations is being assembled for printing prior to the 40th anniversary of the JFK assassination in 2003. Next year will also mark the 35th anniversaries of the MLK and RFK killings, and we might want to organize small meetings in Memphis and Los Angeles, as we did on the 30th anniversary, hoping to get some press and keep interest alive. Let me know if you are interested in such meetings. Work continues on the release of the MLK records with Rep. Cynthia McKinney's office as well.

Maybe Shoup needs to be put back into the loop of suspicion on JFK. He later spoke out against the Vietnam war and he was at his physical at Bethesday on November 22 so I had always given him benefit of the doubt.

Subject: Venezuela: Change of Government
15 Apr 2002
Here is the official and completely phony State Department release on the coup to oust democratically elected President Chavez in Venezuela. The IMF/World Bank had been busy for some time "dollarizing" and destroying the economy of this once rich southern neighbor, and creating the conditions for an uprising. Chavez had been opposing them, selling oil to and maintaining relations with Cuba, bucking Chevron in the state-owned oil company, and generally refusing to cowtow to US corporate/military interests in the region.

We have engineered many coups and overthrown many democratically elected leaders. When those who support oppressive US and globalist policies of privatization of resources and austerity measures for the populace go about killing the opposition, we do not chide them, we reward them instead. But there is no evidence that shows the attacks on demonstrators did not come from the same military that then ousted Chavez. He did not resign, he was overthrown. What comes next remains to be seen.

When Teddy Roosevelt set out to steal the Panama Canal, they hired a group to overthrow the local government in what was then a section of Bolivia, and the State Department recognized the existence of a separate country, Panama, before Bolivia even knew it had been annexed for control of the canal. "We showed those jackrabbits!" Teddy said. All over the world people are "Enduring Democracy", American style at least.

6 May 2002
Earl Warren's father was beaten to death with blows to the head. He was home alone, but there was no suicide, just an unsolved homicide. Some suspect it may have been Earl, but it was never solved. Warren worked closely with McCloy, and others in California to set up the WWII Japanese internment camps. He was politically "discovered" by Murray Chotiner, a hatchet man for Nixon. He was supposedly opposing the Mob and offshore gambling. He headed a libertarian court, but he was not legit. He had a good reputation though, so LBJ wanted him to give credibility to the JFK cover-up. Warren balked, knowing it would always haunt him I suppose, and LBJ reminded him he was a military officer and could be called to duty at any time. Johnson gave him a military order to chair the commission.

Eustace Mullins is anti-semitic and often very inaccurate in his work on the government and the Federal Reserve. The far right want us to think JFK was killed because he printed some money independent of the Fed. That was the least of their problems with JFK. But it lets them link it all in to the worldwide "International Banker Conspiracy" (read Jewish), and avoid talking about the Pentagon and the military-industrial complex. You can find better sources, trust me.

Subject: Nuclear based crimes--->JFK vs The Y-12 Nuclear National Security Network
6 May 2002
Though this is too simplistic a model to explain the high-level involvement of the JCS, for instance, it does ring true in regard to the nuclear circle at Oak Ridge. Garrison was looking into the security guards there, the largest police force in the US, totally secret, founded by Colonel Groves and David Lillienthal as the Defense Industry Security Command (DISC). It is mentioned in histories of the Tennessee Valley Authority. It is one of the groups listed by Torbitt (Copeland) in Nomenclature of an Assassination Cabal as responsible for the plot against JFK. It still exists as DISCO and guards the nuclear weapons, plants and waste.

Oak Ridge and Manhattan were the beginnings of the national security secrecy state. Has anyone run across the person named here? The link to Ruby? DISC was under DIA of course, so this can be true at the mechanical level but still not the whole story. There was a lot of "fallout" from nuclear weapons, and JFK wanted to end the arms race and dismantle them.

We are busy filling in the schedule of speakers for our annual COPA Regional Meeting in Dallas, and glad to announce that Peter Dale Scott, Ph.D. will be joining us again this year. I am working closely with the staff of Rep. Cynthia McKinney to draft legislation based on the JFK Act, but improving on it, aimed at the release of files in the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. assassination and all related records, including COINTELPRO and other military intelligence operations such as GARDEN PLOT and LANTERN SPIKE.

The following excerpt from William Bamford's new book, Body of Secrets is telling, and gives even more insight into the forces that had reason to kill President Kennedy. The Senate Foreign Intelligence Committee warned of a military coup like the one fictionalized in Seven Days in May.

I hope you can join us in Dallas this year. The newly refurbished Hotel Lawrence (302 S. Houston Street, at Jackson, near Dealey Plaza) reservations can be made between now and October 22 for $69 single/$79 double, per night, by calling (214) 761-9090 and mentioning COPA. Kerri Kincheloe is our contact there if you have any trouble. We will be on the Grassy Knoll at 12:30 for a commemoration on Friday, November 22, and meeting that night and the following two days. Registration fees will be collected at the event, and will not exceed $25 per day. If you plan to attend, please try to bring at least one new person who has never heard the information.

DEPARTMENT OF WHADDYA KNOW
Washington Post joins conspiracy theorists

[We'd like to think that this report would reduce the number of journalists making dumb comments about "conspiracy theories" but we doubt it since badhabits can be even stronger than conspiracies]

||| George Lardner Jr. Washington Post - The House Assassinations Committee may have been right after all: There was a shot from the grassy knoll. That was the key finding of the congressional investigation that concluded 22 years ago that President John F. Kennedy's murder in Dallas in 1963 was "probably . . . the result of a conspiracy." A shot from the grassy knoll meant that two gunmen must have fired at the president within a split-second sequence. Lee Harvey Oswald, accused of firing three shots at Kennedy from a perch at the Texas School Book Depository, could not have been in two places at once. A special panel of the National Academy of Sciences subsequently disputed the evidence of a fourth shot, contained on a police dictabelt of the sounds in Dealey Plaza that day. The panel insisted it was simply random noise, perhaps static, recorded about a minute after the shooting while Kennedy's motorcade was en route to Parkland Hospital. A new, peer-reviewed article in Science and Justice, a quarterly publication of Britain's Forensic Science Society, says the NAS panel's study was seriously flawed. It says the panel failed to take into account the words of a Dallas patrolman that show the gunshot-like noises occurred "at the exact instant that John F. Kennedy was assassinated." In fact, the author of the article, D.B. Thomas, a government scientist and JFK assassination researcher, said it was more than 96 percent certain that there was a shot from the grassy knoll to the right of the president's limousine, in addition to the three shots from a book depository window above and behind the president's limousine.

Subject: Questions about the Vietnam War
Date: Mon, 13 May 2002 21:10:41 EDT
From: Kate Kolbert-Hyle
To: John Judge

We are studying the Vietnam War in history class. For an English assignment we have been asked to find somebody involved in the Vietnam War to answer questions and reflect on their experiences. You can answer any, all or none of the questions as i can understand it might take awhile. If you'd rather reflect on a specific experience that would be just as good. Thanks so much for your help and if you have any questions let me know!

Were you involved in the Vietnam War?

I was involved with the Vietnam war, as was almost all of my generation and other generations that came before us, in one way or another. The war became a national question because it made young men face questions about their social duties and sense of alienation that had built up since the 1950s. The war also brought social costs at home, guns instead of butter, thousands of deaths, and eventually a recession. Those who fought the war became increasingly alienated with it as well, due to the nature of the weapons, the high levels of civilian deaths (90%), and the lack of clearly defined military objectives. It became a war of attrition (reducing the numbers), not only of the "enemy" but of the Vietnamese people.

The war did tremendous damage to Vietnam as well, and what was once the rice-producing capitol of the world now imports most of its rice. Horrible ecological damage resulted from the bomb craters (26 million in a country the size of Rhode Island), the chemical spraying and de-forestation, the breakdown of barriers between salt and fresh water, loss of topsoil which irreversibly hardens the clay soil beneath (called laeterization), the deaths of many natural species and types of plants and the normal interaction of the different levels of the ecology there.

The Vietnamese people are still being poisoned by chemicals in the water and soil, have high rates of birth defects (25%), are still harmed by unexploded bombs in the soil, and have never been given any reparations or help following all the destruction. So, yes, I was very involved with the war and with those who fought it or refused to. I read all I could about it starting in the early sixties, and collected information all through the war years.

Although we had our differences, Art was always open to ideas and once made a videotape of a talk I gave in Philadelphia and distributed it. More recently, he sent me a CD with the best of his ARF writings, and corresponded about Jonestown, 9-11 and other matters. I know Judy will miss him, she is a wonderful person. I never got to know his kids really. I might try to make the tribute.

I remember years ago when a jock at my college asked me, "Whaddya mean you don't believe in war? Don't'cha believe in God?" Nix to both. The death threats against this person are so typical of "Christians" who cannot tolerate any belief but their own. Why are they sooooo threatened when a few people don't believe in their Supreme Being? I know they all want a theocracy, but this country was founded by deists, who did not themselves believe in a Supreme Being. The phrases "under God" and "In God We Trust" are offensive to those not steeped in this religious blindness.

We can draw crowds and students alike and DC provides assistance to non-profits in just this sort of development, so I am working on it still.

Seems like it should then be okay--even logical--for the military recruiting command to stop advertising and stop actively trying to convince people to join the military in the first place. After all, isn't that how vets are created? -Rick J

Subject: MIT Professor Chomsky's military ties
4 Aug 2002
This tells us a bit more about Chomsky and who he really protects. I also recall him refusing to support student protests against MIT's appointment to the Presidency of his pal John Deutch who had extensive ties to the military-industrial-complex through some 10 top contractors. Chomsky later said that Deutch was the best possible man to head the CIA.

From: Bob Feldman
Subject: MIT Professor Chomsky's military ties
Date: Fri, 12 Jul 2002 18:00:23 -0400
Regarding the documentation of MIT Professor Chomsky's ties to the military during the McCarthy era of the 1950s:

"In 1955, Chomsky's friend Roman Jakobson arranged for him to work as a researcher at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Chomsky, in his own words, `had no identifiable field or credentials in anything', but MIT, `a scientific university which didn't care much about credentials,' was willing to overlook his lack of certifiable `professional competence'. Chomsky was made an assistant professor and assigned, ironically, to a machine translation project of the type he had often criticized. The project was directed by Victor Yngve and was being conducted at the MIT Research Laboratory of Electronics, which was subsidized by the U.S. military.

"...He was...interviewed by laboratory director Jerome Wiesner for the position...Chomsky was hired as a full-time faculty member, which meant that he was required to spend half his time working in the research lab...Here, his Aspects of the Theory of Syntax was hatched...The funding for the research published in Aspects was provided by `the Joint Services Electronics Program' (U.S. Army, Navy and Air Force), the Electronics Systems Division of the U.S. Air Force, the National Science Foundation, the National Institutes of Health, and NASA..." (from Noam Chomsky: A Life of Dissent by Robert Barsky)

Jerome Weisner later became the head of JFK's Science Advisory Committee during the early 1960s; and according to the 1965 annual report of the Ford Foundation-subsidized Institute for Defense Analyses Pentagon weapons-research think-tank, Jerome Weisner was an Adviser to IDA's Jason Division group of university professors who performed counter-insurgency, Vietnam War-related weapons research every summer during the 1960s Viet Nam War Era.

When students shut down Columbia University in 1968 in support of the demand that Columbia resign its institutional membership in IDA, MIT Professor Chomsky constructed a left anti-war rationalization for opposing the Columbia student revolt -- but he did not disclose at the time that an IDA Jason Division consultant, Jerome Weisner, was the person who hired him as an MIT professor and military lab researcher during the McCarthy Era.

As Barsky also notes in his Noam Chomsky: A Life of Dissent book: "While he admired `the challenge to the universities' that the students were so vehemently presenting, Chomsky thought their rebellions were `largely misguided,' and he `criticized [them] as they were in progress at Berkeley (1966) and Columbia (1968) particularly." Today, of course, MIT is still the 12th-largest recipient of all U.S. Air Force war contracts and the largest recipient of U.S. Air Force war research contracts in recent years.

Subject: Memphis: Civil Rights Museum expands
1 Oct 2002
Somehow the Civil Rights Museum got $11 million to expand into a phony exhibit trying to prove Ray's guilt. Wonder who put it up? I always knew there was so little evidence, myself. I'm working on a regional meeting in Memphis on April 4 next year, since it will be the 35th anniversary of Dr. King's murder. The press is already sniffing as you can see. I tried on the 30th anniversary to rent space at this very Museum and I was denied since they "wanted to focus on his life, not his death". I think another in Los Angeles on June 6 would be in order for RFK as well. In addition it will be the 40th for JFK, so we need to be visible in Dallas.

There will be a major debate of the single bullet theory at the Wecht College of Forensic Science at Duquesne University on November 22, 2003 featuring Dr. Cyril Wecht, Senator Arlen Spector, Dr. Gary Aguilar, Dr. Michael Baden and perhaps others, and we will try to simulcast it into Dallas for those who won't be in Pittsburgh to see it live. We are working also on a mock grand jury using real witnesses to retry the JFK murder at our Dallas meeting next year.

Bill Kelly and I will also renew our annual presence in April on the anniversary of JFK's powerful speech against the Pax Americana and nuclear rearmament and war that we are seeing now, given to the graduating class at American University in 1963. "...and we are all mortal" he said.

Work continues on drafting new legislation to release the MLK assassination files and the history leading up to it, with the help of outgoing Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney and other members of the Congressional Black Caucus. Our panel discussion at the CBC annual legislative conference included Judge Joe Brown, Martin Luther King, III, Dr. William Pepper, Philip Melanson, James Lesar, Lyndon Barsten and myself. It was incredibly powerful and I hope to show a tape of it in Dallas this year.

However, we are very low on resources at COPA, and have not asked for donations in a long time. If you think these things should happen, please consider sending check or money order made to me, John Judge, with a notation that it is earmarked for COPA work. We no longer have an organizational account, but I will account it separately or open an extra personal checking account. I hope you have already made your reservations for Dallas this year from November 22-24, since we will have a great lineup of speakers and information and we will be staying in a completely redecorated Hotel Lawrence just off Dealey Plaza. Now's the time to get airline tickets and call the hotel for a special COPA discount of $69 single/$79 double (includes daily newspaper of your choice, great continental breakfast, and local van service to points of interest). We will be just off Dealey Plaza for all these events, as well as our annual Moment of Silence on the Grassy Knoll at 12:30 on the 39th anniversary of the death of hope. If you think these events are worth doing, let us know with some support.

Thanks -

Were they about to say too much? The Feds were hands off during an investigation of interstate crimes that led to the death of one of their own analysts, and now hands-on when it comes to making obscure federal charges that are preventing local prosecution.
