(14,549 posts)Oswald was refused by the Soviets. On the day his handler came to escort him out of the country he slit his wrists. They still rejected him. He got his baseless "hardship" discharge from the Marines changed to "undesireable", etc. etc. Eventually they let him stay but instead of going to Moscow University as he requested, Oswald is sent to Belarus and kept under constant surveillance. Seems like they never trusted Oswald.

Oswald tries very hard to be seen publicly as pro-communist and pro-Castro so how does that fit with shooting a President whom the RW believed was "soft on communism"? Why would a RW company like Reily hire a guy who spends his spare time passing out commie leaflets in the street? And finally, why would Guy Banister tolerate an organization, if there legitimately was one, like "Fair Play for Cuba" in his building?
