Washington Decoded
Washington Decoded 11 November 2008 11 Seconds in Dallas Redux: Filmed Evidence Figure 1. Still photo taken during a restaging of the assassination by the Secret Service in 1963. Six months later, the Warren Commission would independently label the limousine’s location at this approximate point on Elm Street “Position A.” The ghost image, which is inserted, approximates the position of the presidential limousine on November 22 at the moment Abraham Zapruder restarted his camera (see figure 2). By Max Holland and Kenneth R. Scearce In March 2007, the inaugural issue of Washington Decoded posited a radical new description of the shooting sequence in Dealey Plaza. “11 Seconds in Dallas, Not Six” argued that the Zapruder film did not capture in full the 1963 assassination of President Kennedy. Rather, the iconic movie recorded an assassination that had already commenced. Lee Harvey Oswald’s errant first shot was fired about 1.4 seconds before Abe Zapruder started his camera, or just after the president’s limousine reached a point on Elm Street identified by the Warren Commission in 1964 as “Position A,” which was “not on the Zapruder film” (figure 1).[1] Washington Decoded This new explanation changed nothing, and everything, at the same time. In the first sense, it only underscored that Lee Harvey Oswald, acting alone, killed President Kennedy. But it also lay to rest the notion, which had long haunted the official story, that Oswald’s feat of marksmanship was anything exceptional. Firing three shots in 11 seconds took no great skill. Figure 2. Frame 133 from the Zapruder film, the first frame in which the presidential limousine is visible. -

The Man Who Wasn't There: Were There Phony Secret Service Agents in Dealey Plaza?
The Man Who Wasn't There: Were There Phony Secret Service Agents in Dealey Plaza? Michael T. Griffith 2020 @All Rights Reserved Second Edition Officers Smith and Baker in Dealey Plaza moments after the shots were fired Some witnesses said they encountered Secret Service agents in Dealey Plaza moments after the assassination. These reports continue to be the subject of much controversy. Why? Because it has long been established that no genuine Secret Service agents were on the ground in Dealey Plaza until later that afternoon. This fact suggests that phony Secret Service agents were in Dealey Plaza, and that they were there to help the assassins escape. David Scheim summarizes: After the shooting, Dallas Police officer Joe M. Smith encountered another suspicious man in the lot behind the picket fence [on the grassy knoll]. Smith told the Warren Commission that when he drew his pistol and approached the man, the man "showed [Smith] that he was a Secret Service agent.” Another witness also reported encountering a man who displayed a badge and identified himself as a Secret Service agent. But according to Secret Service Chief James Rowley and agents at the scene, all Secret Service personnel stayed with the motorcade, as required by regulations, and none was stationed in the railroad parking lot [behind the grassy knoll]. It thus appeared that someone was carrying fraudulent Secret Service credentials - of no perceptible use to anyone but an escaping assassin. (Scheim 30-31) Not only were there no Secret Service (SS) agents stationed on or behind the grassy knoll, but there were no FBI or other federal agents stationed there either. -

[ROI3]⋙ Pictures of the Pain: Photography and the Assassination
Pictures of the Pain: Photography and the Assassination of President Kennedy Richard B. Trask PDF File: Pictures of the Pain: Photography and the Assassination of President Kennedy... 1 Pictures of the Pain: Photography and the Assassination of President Kennedy Richard B. Trask Pictures of the Pain: Photography and the Assassination of President Kennedy Richard B. Trask This major work displays the history of the photography of the President John F. Kennedy assassination. Written by historian and archivist Richard B. Trask, the book is the result of 10 years' research. The volume's 638 pages and over 360 illustrations, many never before published, reveal in detail the November 22, 1963, assassination in Dallas, Texas, as recorded by numerous photographers who were present in Dealey Plaza at the time of the shooting. These on-scene photographers included professional photojournalists and rank amateurs who captured on film in a form truer than any person's memory, relevant and dramatic slices of the reality of the event. This Point-In-Time history combines photographic sources, numerous revealing, first-time interviews and a wealth of primary source documentation, including many Freedom of Information Act requests, which display from a multi-perspective view how this event was personally experienced by these picture-takers and others. The narration gathers multiple strands of information which, when woven together, create a broad tapestry of truths and perspectives never before revealed concerning one of the most shocking events of the 20th century. Also examined is the story of how these images, including the famous Zapruder film, were used, and sometimes abused, by the news media and government investigations, as well as by assassination critics who distrusted the government's conclusions in the case. -
Dealey Plaza Deceptions: the Zapruder Film 1
BK Gjerde (2004): Dealey Plaza Deceptions: The Zapruder Film 1 Dealey Plaza Deceptions: The Zapruder Film by Bjørn K. Gjerde © Copyright 2004 Bjørn K. Gjerde While working on my article about the forged autopsy photographs and the second autopsy of President John F. Kennedy, I occasionally took a look at the Zapruder film and other films and photographs taken at Dealey Plaza immediately before, during and after the assassination of President Kennedy on November 22, 1963. I was particularly interested in the Zapruder film, and looked at the complete film as well as the individual frames to some extent, comparing them with other images from the assassination scene. While doing so, I noticed some features in the film that didn’t match with that which could be seen in other photographs from Dealey Plaza. However, I didn’t have the opportunity to study the matter properly at that time, since I felt it was urgent to finish the article about the forged autopsy photographs and the second autopsy. So in that article I merely stated that: “Since the Secret Service and the FBI were involved in the conspiracy to kill President Kennedy, every piece of evidence from the assassination these agencies processed, must be looked upon with great suspicion. The other evidence may be just as falsified as the medical evidence presented in this article.” Having published my article about the forged medical evidence and the second autopsy on April 30, 2004, I began to take a closer look at the Zapruder film and other images from Dealey Plaza. I soon found out that the Zapruder film as well as several other photographs from the assassination scene were just as falsified as the autopsy photographs and x-rays of President Kennedy, but due to other obligations, it has taken several months to finish the present article about these falsifications. -

JFK Was the Wrong Man in the Wrong Place at the Wrong Time
www.kennedymustbekilled.com “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.” — George Santanya John F. Kennedy was headed down a path to failure the moment his family stole the 1960 presidential election. Patrick McCarthy knew that JFK was the wrong man in the wrong place at the wrong time. He had witnessed years of poor judgment and appall- ingly bad behavior by Jack and his family, and it both concerned and sickened him. Cold War tensions were overheating, and he knew Jack Kennedy couldn't possibly stand up under its pressures. He wasn't alone in those thoughts. The Kennedys had made many enemies over the years and the political power struggle that had been long brewing was now coming to a head. When JFK's numerous foreign policy blunders took the nation to the very brink of nuclear war, and his meddling in civil rights inflamed racial hatreds in the South, a shadowy group of powerful men known as the Patriots decide it is time to act. Kennedy must be stopped before his next mistake resulted in the deaths of millions of innocent Americans. On November 22, 1963, a cruel twist of fate finds Patrick McCarthy concealed on a grassy knoll in Dealey Plaza, cradling a sniper's rifle and waiting patiently for the presidential motorcade to pass by. Spanning the period from 1946-1978, KENNEDY MUST BE KILLED is a meticulously researched novel featuring a wide ranging cast of historical characters, including Jack and Jackie Kennedy, Robert Kennedy, Lyndon Johnson, Richard Nixon, Dwight Eisenhower, Allen Dulles, Alger Hiss, Joseph McCarthy, Nikita Khrushchev, J. -
