Fine.

But their conclusion is:

If he was the only gunman ? which we doubt ? he still was not alone.

The story of the marriage doesn't make sense, therefore this is evidence of a conspiracy ?

A conspiracy with whom ?

He wasn't alone ?  Who was he with ?

They doubt he was the only shooter ?

The author provides a list of reasons to doubt some of the known facts about Marina and Lee?s time in Russia.

Regardless of whether one thinks he acted alone or was part of a conspiracy, finding answers to questions about these mysteries in their respective biographies might help give a better historical understanding of the Kennedy Assassination. Or maybe it won?t. Maybe it just leads to more questions.

That's almost as ridiculous as "he left his wedding ring at home, therefore this is evidence of murder".

Then there was the time Marina accidentally told Robert Webster's cover story when she was talking about Lee.

You're right again.

Your hero probably just forgot he left his ring in a cup and his life savings behind that day. Zero significance to those acts.

However, he did remember to take his 3 foot cheese sandwich.

Gives me an idea for another thread.

John Banks is correct, I should have commented on the article itself... but I think it is still important to know something about Stratfor.

Per the article, the author says himself, they will not go full speculation but it is mostly in the direction that the Russians could have had something to do with the assassination, that's why "Lee would not be alone" because per the article, it makes it sound like Marina could be part of it. That seems pretty far-fetched.

The article also mentions the relative ease that it appears Oswald and his wife were able to come to the USA. I think stats have been checked out as in Posner's "Case Closed";  and it was not always that rare for people to return from Russia somewhat unfettered. Cold War was on but still, a number returned.

Did he also leave some money. Nothing like taking things out of context.
