  • Powers, Angleton, Morley and Dallas (Winter 2018)
    Powers, Angleton, Morley and Dallas William Kelly Mainstream media journalists seldom take on the delicate subject of the assassination of President Kennedy to discuss it in a serious way. An example of this was Thomas Powers’ recent review of Ghost,1 Jefferson Morley’s biography of James Jesus Angleton: Powers came close but doesn’t know enough about the subject to do more than try – and fail – to discredit Morley and dismiss his work on the assassination as irrelevant. Morley has a careful journalistic approach and has written biographies of two central figures in the assassination. The first was Our Man in Mexico about the CIA station chief in Mexico City, Winston Scott; more recently, as mentioned, he has produced Ghost about Angleton. Those are integral parts of the assassination story. Morley writes from an historical distance and a different perspective than Powers, whose biography of CIA Director Richard Helms2 was written with the cooperation of Helms and subject to his revisions. This is something Morley would not do. Thomas Powers actually met James Angleton and recalls the conversation they had as a basic Angleton tutorial on counter-intelligence (CI) techniques. They talked about the collection of ‘serials’ on subjects and the opening of chronologies on people and events, along with two basic rules of research: no details are left out of a serial file and there’s no quarreling with the evidence. The final product, when analysts writing a report attempt to ‘properly interpret’ the evidence, is where the quarreling comes in. But those ‘counter-intelligence methods’ are just the basic research techniques which assassination researchers have been doing for the last 50 years.3 1 ‘The Monster Plot’ in the London Review of Books 10 May 2018.

    255 Mr. PREYER . Had he mentioned it before he went to New Orleans or was this something that he became interested in in New Or- leans? Mrs. PORTER . I think in New Orleans the word "Cuba" came up much more often than in the Dallas period. Mr. PREYER. He distributed the Fair Play for Cuba Committee literature. Did he talk about distributing that literature with you? Mrs. PORTER . Well, he always brought his pamphlets home. I was kind of pleased that the papers weren't as bad an occupation as playing with the rifle so I couldn't see any harm in that. Mr. PREYER. He used the name Hidel at this time. Did you write the name Hidel on any of the literature? Mrs. PORTER . He asked me to put some signatures with a name like that. I make joking remark about does that stand for Fidel, you know, is that a sound association, more or less. Mr. PREYER . Did he agree that it was a variation on the name Fidel? Mrs. PORTER. He just had a smile on, you know. Mr. PREYER . Was that the first that anybody mentioned that Hidel was a variation on Fidel, on that occasion? In other words, did anyone tell you about that before that occasion? Mrs. PORTER . No. Mr. PREYER . Mr. Chairman, I think I have no further questions on this aspect of the questioning at this time. Chairman STOKES . The Chair observes that the witness has now been under examination for approximately 31/z hours. This would probably be an appropriate place for the committee to take a recess for approximately an hour.

  • The-Kennedy-Assassin
    THE KENNEDY ASSASSINATION After more than half a century, the November 22, 1963 shooting of President John F. Kennedy by Lee Harvey Oswald in Dallas remains a mystery. Over a thousand books have told the story. Many accept the official version of the 1964 Warren Commission that Oswald was a lone gunman. But the 1976 House of Representatives committee on assassinations did not reject the idea of a conspiracy. Thus conspiracy theories abound that involve Soviet intelligence, the Castro government in Cuba, anti-Castro Cuban exiles, Lyndon Johnson, the FBI and CIA and mafia dons operating in New Orleans, Tampa and Chicago. This course will examine the assassination and its major characters—Kennedy, Oswald and Oswald’s killer, Jack Ruby—along with the conspiracy theories and historiography of America’s most famous presidential murder. Students will find that all the major documents are now available on line, with more to be released in October during this course. Internet literacy is highly recommended. Robert C. Williams is a retired Russian historian with some personal connections to the Kennedy assassination story who has taught at Bates, Davidson and Williams Colleges and at Washington University in St. Louis. Students are encouraged to read James W. Douglass, JFK and the Unspeakable: Why He Died and Why it Matters (Simon & Schuster, 2008). They should also utilize the web site of the Mary Ferrell Foundation. 2 1. DEALEY PLAZA, NOVEMBER 22, 1963 (Sept 29) Dallas Morning News publishes black-bordered advertisement criticism of JFK “Welcome Mr. Kennedy to Dallas”.
