It would be much easier and more convenient to organise a car accident, or plane crash or whatever. No witnesses, no recorded footage, no fall guy. Nothing. It was also an open secret in Washington about his extra marital affairs. He was a matter of months from beginning his re-election campaign. If you wanted rid of him its much simpler to destroy his reputation with the US electorate and have him drift into history. Oswald did it.

By all accounts French Intelligence too carried out their own investigation and reached the same conclusion a coup took place that day in Dallas. There is just too much information available showing Oswald could not have acted alone. A leftist shooting the President in the right wing state of Dallas, is strange enough. People forget Oswald was supporting pro Castro/Anti Castro groups when he was in New Orleans. If he was a communist he would not be supporting anti Castro groups.

And how was he able to identify Oswald within hours. This is the fastest identification ever. Oswald may have realized he was there to take him out and killed him. Of course it could be just an officer in the wrong place who Oswald shot and killed.

Cheerful Spring wrote: » So you disagree with the Warren Commission report? Oswald. On August 5, 1963, Lee Harvey Oswald visited a store managed by Carlos Bringuier, a Cuban refugee and avid opponent of Castro, and the New Orleans delegate of the Cuban student directorate. Oswald indicated an interest in joining the struggle against Castro. He told Bringuier that he had been a marine and was trained in guerrilla warfare, and that he was willing not only to train Cubans to fight Castro but also to join the fight himself. The next day Oswald returned to the store and left his Guidebook for Marines for Bringuier. A few days later, a friend of Bringuier's saw Oswald passing out Fair Play for Cuba Committee leaflets on Canal Street, not far from the store Bringuier managed. He, Bringuier and another exile proceeded to the site of Oswald's mini-demonstration, and Bringuier was enraged when he recognized the pro-Castro demonstrator as the anti-Castro activist wannabe of a few days before. Though no physical violence resulted, some heated words were uttered, a crowd gathered, and Oswald was arrested along with the three Cubans for disturbing the peace.

Cheerful Spring wrote: » Rubbish. There is no evidence at all Oswald was a member of any pro Cuban group. Who are the other members of this group? Why was he trying to infiltrate a anti-Castro group by himself, for what purpose? Only a government agent would see benefit with this approach.
The Nal wrote: » He was the only member of the New Orleans chapter of the Fair Play for Cuba Committee. In his mind anyway. They advised him against opening an office. His letter and their response letter are available to read. He was arrested with pro Castro leaflets. He was on the tv news handing them out. Loads of evidence. As I said, you dont seem to know too much about this.

The Nal wrote: » Thats not true. The address on the leaflets was 544 Camp St. Bannisters office was 531 Lafayette St. I've been to the building. Neither office was accessible by the same door. Two seperate offices. Theres no evidence they knew each other. Oswald was a marxist and Bannister was an anti communist white supremacist. Pulling out the Jim Garrison theories. Its getting silly now.
The Nal wrote: » There was no evidence that there was a Fair Play for Cuba Committee? Are you serious?
Cheerful Spring wrote: » It not silly. Oswald was hardly going to take over Guy Banister office and claim it as his own?.. He just had to be close by to him to receive the leaflets. Records show at 554 camp street there was anti Cuban/castro group office. There is no evidence at all pro Castro groups were near this address, the opposite. Addresses are close by to each other too.
Cheerful Spring wrote: » I'm referring to Oswald and his organisation in New Orleans his trying to set up . He could be the only member this is suspicious.
The Nal wrote: » Oswald handed out leaflets with his home address on them. He never rented 544 Camp St. The one occasion Oswald is known to have used pamphlets with the "544 CAMP ST." stamp was August 9, 1963, the day Carlos Bringuier and friends discovered him holding a demonstration only a few blocks from Bringuier's store. A year and a half earlier, 544 Camp Street had briefly been the workplace of *drum roll * - Carlos Bringuier - when he had served the Cuban Revolutionary Council. Oswald went to a lot of trouble to set up that arrest on Canal St. He wanted Bringuier to hit him.
Cheerful Spring wrote: » A friend of Bringuier saw Oswald by chance handing out Pro Castro leaflets and fight happened. In what way does this stop him being a government informer. agent or spy? Oswald playing both sides.
The Nal wrote: » It wasnt by chance. Oswald positioned himself near Bringuiers shop. Where he worked and where they all hung out. He was rubbing his face in it with the address stamped on the back that day.
