I get frustrated sometimes because it seems to me the prohibition on this site and others around conspiracy theories acts to keep new information from arising, and casts new information into unnecessary doubt once it does arise.
I was five when Kennedy was shot, and can remember what my dad told me. He saw footage once, just once, he said, that to him as a combat vet clearly showed the bullets came from the front, not the back. In short, I have always felt the assassination an inside job - a coup-de-etat by the MIC. Now, it seems that new information has indeed arisen around this, and is in this book by Talbot showing Allen Dulles for the monster he was.
Talbot's a somewhat credible historian, and my question to those who moderate on this site is what if he's right?
Because, you see, if it came out in any credible way whatsoever that Kennedy was killed for the sake of potential MIC profits, it might change some things. Oh, I know that putting tin foil hats on people who (giggle) offer up 'conspiracy theories' (titter) is de-rigeur for the corporate-owned media, because the corporations that own the media use them to further their own propaganda and having the American people find out the truth, and that the truth was hidden from them, ridiculed as part of an establishment conspiracy is the last thing they want.
Why? Because they have conspired through neoliberal capitalism to freely move capital, money, and labor anywhere in the world through so-called 'free trade,' and are making their move to end nation states and replace them with corporate governance through TPP. Read it. It's obvious if you can bring yourself to wade through the obtuse language.
So, to end, I'm not saying yea or nay to the idea that Kennedy's assassination was in effect a coup-de-etat by the MIC. All I'm doing is asking how should we all react if that turns out to be true? Will it still be hidden? Ridiculed? Discouraged?
Just wondering.
