This wasn't a street crime to ho solved by the DalL-w

polies,. This was a political cmime with political

consequences. Even in the sphere of foroiEn polities

where welve been told that there was no shift of policy

between Kennedy- end Johteon, In some areas that just

wasn't true. President Kennedy in the last 6 months of

163 was moving towards detente both in Cuba in Vietnam

and in both areas his peace initiatives were frustrated

by his aesassin4tios. In the ease of ViAnam he hk,d acconneed

publicly on NomveMbor 20, 1961 just two days before his death

that there vauld be a with drawal of US troops from Vietnam.

A thousand troops as the first stage of a mjor withdrawal

and I was horrified to learn that 2 days after his death on

November 24th this first step towards disengagement in Vietnvm.

was secretely cancelled by the new Johnson administrLtion.

(AUTHOR OF "SIX SECONDS IN DALLAS")

There's not a single witness in Denley Plaza tho said that

the assassination as the Warren Commission believed it hcpponsd.

Not a single witness saw both nen hit by the sena shot. Governor

Connally, who was hit, denies to this day that he was hit by

the same shot that hit Kennedy;

Jchn Connolly: Uh I had time to turn. Uh to try to see what had happened.

I was in the process of turning again. flat why, I felt to

impact of a bullet.

we're moving ahead. It is the immediate impact effects of a

hit. I asked Dr. Gregrory his surgeon at ono point why his

cheeks would puff and Gregory exelqinod that tLe impact, of the

hullit F:inetrating the chest would have driven air upward through

the we throughtths trap door in the throat which would invo-

lutnarily open and it would puff the cheeks. All these are

consistent than the llullit hit at this point. Seems to me that

we've seen here then is the' photographic disproef of tIle single

bullit theory, Now moving ahead in the film we're now nearing

the point where Presil3cnt Kennedy is killed. There it is. Frs.=

Scott: But it, it does suggeot that the evidence...

Curry: Right.

Scott: That we have, in both cases rather strong evidence, that there

was another assassin involved.

Burry: That's right.

JOSIAH THOMPSON, AUTHOR" SIX SECONDS IN DALLAS"

This was an enormously effective and officicnt politien1 etecation.

The Prosidant was shot twice and Governor Connolly van shot onso

all within five seconds. According to the cormission this was

done by a poor porksvan, by a lone individual who was half crazy

apparently. And this was profoundly implausible. A much more

I think Oswald was nothing more or lens than just a patu

Peter Dale Scott: Do you think he was perhaps being used when ha was in New

Orleana as well?

Gaudet: Oh I'm no question he was being used there.

Scott,: This act of handing out literature was not something that

he wanted to do but something he was told to do. Is that

what you're thinking?
