Ruth Paine remembers the Assassination

[John Iacoletti]

Speaking of fantasies, “Richard” is apparently vying for the Pulitzer Prize in fiction.

[Thomas Graves]

Galbraith,

Given the fact that we are now saddled with a pro-"KGB" / anti-CIA president (soon to be dictator-for-life?), whom would you say, in hindsight, benefited more from the assassination of JFK (by an avowed Marxist, no less)?

1) The evil, evil, evil CIA, whose anti-KGB counterintelligence capabilities were destroyed by the combined efforts of Yuri "KGB Had Nothing To Do With Oswald In The USSR" Nosenko, Aleksei "I Duped Hoover For Fifteen Years" Kulak, Dimitri "I Tag-Teamed With Kulak" Polyakov, Boris "KGB Determined The Evil, Evil, Evil MIICC Did It" Orehkov, et al., and useful American idiots (or worse) Kovich, McCoy, Hart, Solie, Colby, et al., ... or ...

2) The humanitarian organization (and Putin's former employer) best known and  remembered as the "KGB" (oh-so-innocuously split into the "SVR" and the "FSB" because, "Hey, you gullible Americans, The Cold War Is Over!") ?

PS. Don't run away now, like you usually do.

PPS  There are oodles and gobs of wishful-thinking Americans who are unwitting (by definition) "useful idiots" of KGB-boy Vladimir Putin.

As I recall, 63 million of then voted for Trump in 2016.

So don't take it so personally, Steve M.

It can happen to any ignorant and/or gullible person.

PPPS  Oswald wasn't necessarily controlled by the Kremlin. But he was influenced by it (by Marx, if nothing else), or ... gasp ... maybe Pacepa was telling the truth when he said Khrushchev wasn't able to call off the hit!

Regardless, the assassination gave false-defector Yuri Nosenko a great talking point  / "icebreaker" and reason to be "listened to" by the likes of my heroes Anglenton and Bagley and Westin and Miler and Rocca et al., (who already knew from Geneva 1962 that he was fake), and "taken seriously" by the likes of wishful-thinkers Leonard McCoy, HSCA-perjurer John L. Hart, and Bruce "Gum Shoe" Solie, et al.

The latter gang won out in the long run, and as a result, CIA Counterintelligence was decimated and demoralized, and false-defector Yuri Nosenko was not only given a large cash reward, but was actually hired by CIA to help train its recruits.

All of which paved the way for Adrich Ames' getting away with what he did, for so incredibly long as he did.

And for "Popov Mole" Edward Ellis Smith's not being uncovered during his lifetime, and the person in CIA's Soviet Russia Division he probably helped KGB to recruit never being uncovered ...

Etcetera ...

You have dozens of post here positing this bizarre (to me) theory that the KGB/DGI and Khrushchev or Castro directed Oswald to kill JFK. And then you (correctly) complain about rampant conspiracy thinking going around?

Frankly, your views on the assassination are really not much different than those of Oliver Stone and DiEugenio and Simpich. They just believe that the CIA was behind it all and you think the KGB or DGI was.

Then, to top it off, you've suggested that people here who disagree with you may be Putin's assets? Really?

As Richard pointed out above, Oswald probably didn't give much thought to his act. He retrieves his rifle the day before the assassination, he has zero practice with it, doesn't check it for accuracy and reliability. He has four bullets. He has to get a ride from a co-worker. He has to hope that he'll be alone at the time JFK passes by.

This is not the act of a well-trained assassin who prepares for the act on orders of Khrushchev. This is a desperate, angry man who got tragically lucky.

I agree that there is no credible evidence of the involvement of the Russians in the JFK assassination.  At most, they may have used the CTer movement to promote distrust of the American government by promoting false theories like the CIA or LBJ were behind the crime.  There was some discussion of Mark Lane having been paid or working with the Russians in promoting his nutty claims.  A sort of disinformation campaign that Lane was adept at (if nothing else).  The Russians might have falsely hinted that they had intelligence information linking the CIA or LBJ to the crime.  There would be a Russian interest in eroding the American public's confidence in their own government.   So I wouldn't put that entirely past them.  But no involvement in the assassination itself.

Instead of wasting your time on an Internet forum why don't you present your proof of Paine's involvement in the assassination to the authorities or make a Gomer Pyle-like citizen's arrest when she makes one of these appearance?  Surely you believe your own nonsense and aren't just spinning come compulsion driven conspiracy nonsense to pass the time.  Get back to us with the results.

  You are such a troll. I'm just here challenging all your LNer bullspombleprofglidnoctobuns because you know jack squat about how to process evidence, which is obvious. You have always been a shill for the conspirators, and I'm sure they thank you bigly for your patronage. But you can ease up now that 99% of them are dead, with the exception of Barr and a few other secondary players. IOWs, give it up, you've lost the war. Try not to think about the decades wasted shilling for nonsense. Maybe you should take a deep breath, reset, and start over. 

[Thomas Graves]

It's quite an obsession you have there, Thomas. Low-resolution images; and again with the adolescent sex references..

Bill,

Are you telling me that, based on the clothes they're wearing (and the light blue headscarf one of them is wearing), you can't see that the three people on the Pergola Patio in the enlarged Towner film aren't only women, but that they're the same three women who were standing by the Stemmons sign in Zapruder?

Do you actually agree with Iacoletti when he suggests that they might be Bermuda shorts-wearing men?

LOL !

Regarding Russophile Ruth Paine, isn't it interesting the the guy who handed the Oswalds off to her when he left the scene, George DeMohrenschildt, was probably a long-term KGB "illegal" according to CIA counterintelligence analyst Clare Edward Petty, as spelled out in Russell's The Man Who Knew Too Much?

Petty came to that conclusion around 1977, iirc, after having taken a close look at some WW II VENONA decrypts.

Try to focus.  It's impossible to follow your ramblings here.  So you won't be submitting your "evidence" of Paine's involvement in the assassination to the authorities or making a citizen's arrest?  I can only infer from that you don't believe your own nonsense but are just in the midst of some type of delusion.

He not only thinks the "conspirators" are still around (Paine and?) but that they also thank you "bigly for your patronage".

To top this lunacy off, he thinks they - who are still alive, remember - care what people write on this forum. I guess they hold meetings and then they tell you, "Hey, Richard, this guy Trojan is on our case. Go stop him now!"

So, I guess Ruth will be sending you an extra gift card this year for Christmas as thanks for all your work defending her evil work.

Yes, Ruth Paine is baking me some brownies as we speak in gratitude.  The Quaker housewife, master spy behind the assassination (cue sinister music).  Nutty CTers want to view this case in a purely hypothetical context in which they can nitpick testimony and imply sinister motivations that fit their kooky world view.  They want nothing to do with reality or the actual players.  It is absurd to suggest that the real, living and breathing Ruth Paine (a kind and charitable person) had anything whatsoever to do with the assassination.   It's fall on the ground laughing nonsense.  CTers have some unconscious understanding of the absurdity of their claims because they make no effort whatsoever to do what any normal person would do if they believed they had evidence of the complicity of someone in murder.  Particularly of the president.  Like report it to the authorities.  Instead they limit themselves to forums like this one where they can vent their compulsion driven fantasies to their heart's content.
