Well, in short, it is a politico-newsmagazine that puts the Establishment up for examination - both satirically and seriously. To wax satiric for example, Descartes once said: "I think, therefore, I am." The magazine's response to Descartes would be, "However, if I think not, am I not? No, I must be an American." But, on a serious level, The Global Village Project believes that if one, let's say, objects conscieritiously with American foreign policy, it does not mean that one is anti-American. It simply means that he or she objects conscientiously, on legal or moral grounds, with American foreign policy. In presenting its views (and the views offered to it) the Project does not censor an issue's position despite its controversy, sensitivity and/or political correctness. Moreover, The Global Village Project believes if we all take care of things locally, then globally, everything and everyplace else will take care of itself - as long as we s someplace. This message is similar to what Goethe (Faust) once said, "Let everyone sweep in front of his o n door, and the whole world will be clean." The Global Village Project will attempt to offer its readers an uninsulated and unsolicited (no special-interest groups) source of inforMation not delivered presently by today's mainstream media. We can accomplish this because we have no advertisers to decide what is or is not in good taste. This "decision-making" done by advertisers poses a conflict of interest, in that advertisers essentially control the open forum. For example, the television series LouGiont was cancelled by CBS in 1982, allegedly because of series star Edward Asner's vocal politics criticising Am rican involvement in Central America. The show's advertisers pulled out, citing a conflict of interest. B, the same token, Ms Magazine became insolvent at one point for representing the feminist viewpoint. It women's cosmetics advertisers pulled their contracts with the magazine, citing their reason as a "conflict o interest." Within the pages of th s magazine there will be, beyond any reasonable doubt, conflict of interests, but we guarantee equal space for rebuttal. The Global Village Project subscribes to the idea that an individual's conscience deals with i eas and that law deals with actions. That is, if one can think it, one can say it. But, 'just because one has s id it, it doesn't mean one can act upon it or incite others to act. Nor does it mean that everyone will like the idea being presented. Censorship is an individual responsibility. If we allow the expurgation of unpopu ar ideas, ideas that are at the very edge of thought and minority v ews, we are then primarily saying that we are willing to accept a Orwellian form of thought-control and an one-sidedness in our th nking. Thereby, we lose free thought and, become subjugated t , or enslaved by, if you please, the mainstream dogma, w atever it may be at whatever time. You know, like that guy amed Galileo. Censorship, like cancer, grows. The therapy, i Olt the cure, is . to have balance! To have balance, both I pular and unpopular ideas require equal exposure and analysis. Impossible? Perhaps. But, if we are to know how an individ al or a society feels, the media operators must not dictate to ciety and then ask of it what it thinks. Instead, media should be a sounding-board that assimilates the ideas of the society it supposedly serves, so that media reflects societal thinking and of the reverse. The former represents a controlled society and the latter an open one. The "thoughts of the many" must be wei hed as favourably as the limiting and self- serving sphere of infl ence of the few, especially if the idea of diversity in a free .ciety is to mean something. It is a monumental undertaking - but necessary when considering the alternatives. the GLOBAL VILLA E project 3 The Global Village Pr 'ect focuses on: political assassinations; social and political articles/essays; political caricatures; global issu s, both political and environmental; opinions and editorials; surveys; the occasional political poem like the ne below, written by the poet Robert Burns: Ye by crites! Are these your pranks? To murder men, and give God thanks? Desist for Shame! Proceed no further: God won't accept your thanks for murder. Hopefully, by example The Global Village Project can demonstrate that it has no preoccupation with any person's occupation, stntus, race, religion, and station in life. The Global Village Project's only criterion for writers planning to sub it a piece of writing is that your writing present an element of conflict. Whatever the conflict may be - e.g., om or Dad won't give you the keys to the car - we would like to hear from you. We welcome and encourag novice writers, young students, and voices of dissent. A genuine dissident dissents genuinely. And loudly early and often. Our first edition of Th Global Village Project is in limited print of only one thousand issues (or less) and is a collectors' edition. In this issue we mark the thirtieth year of American President Johri$itzgerald Kennedy's assassination. The Ke nedy article's focus is to review the 1960's assassination evidence, present the many conspiracy theories ad anted over the years, and analyse the discrepancies of evidence. The Global Village Pr ect may very well be a one-time deal. Therefore, on behalf of the Project, I welcome your ideas and support cause, like public television, The Global Village Project's survival will depend solely on the public support i receives. Our destiny is in your hands. FP-ank Kontos EDITOR'S NOTE I would like to begin by thanking Frank Kontos, the publisher/editor of the Global Village Project for allowing me the privilege of working as Syntax Editor on this Project.

Though America in the 1950s appeared on the surface an ideal society full of hardworking men and happy housewives, it was then that the first strains of the tension that would split the nation over age, morals and race in the 1960s began. It was in this climate, too, that a young, charismatic senator from Massachusetts began a rise to power that ended in his assassination in November 1963 and drew a nation into the mystique of a presidency that would hold widespread fascination for more than a quarter-century. John Fitzgerald Kennedy was born in Brookline, Massachusetts, on May 29,1917. His parents, Joseph and Rose Kennedy, were a wealthy and politically active couple. Joe Kennedy was a United States ambassador with high hopes for the family's future. Rose, in particular, had watched her Jiusband's rise in the international arena and had big plans for her nine children, of which John was the second boy (Patterson, 1). John grew up on the family's New England estate as a young man with big ideas. He attended Princeton University briefly in the late 1930s before transferring to Harvard in 1936, where he would graduate in 1940.

Wilkes, Jr. “It is difficult to understand why the [presidential limousine] came to a complete stop after the first shot. The natural inclination… would be to step on the gas and accelerate as quickly as possible. However, if the driver were under the impression that the shots were from the front, one could understand his hesitation in not wanting to drive closer to the sniper or snipers.”—Mark Lane “The most productive mindset you can have is simply this: always, always, always have a belief system that doesn’t resist change. Go wherever the information leads you, without fear, because surely the truth is never something to dread.” —Darryl Sloan The Zapruder Film Only one person filmed from start to finish the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, which occurred in a matter of seconds at 12:30 p.m. on Nov. 22, 1963 on Elm Street in Dealey Plaza in downtown Dallas, TX.
  • Chapter 7 the Assassination

    Chapter 7 the Assassination

    Chapter 7: November 22, 1963 Chapter 7 The assassination 1 Introduction Our interest in reviewing the information that is today available to us regarding the events of November 22, 1963, quite naturally focuses on the question as to whether President Kennedy was killed by a lone assassin or by a conspiracy. Other questions pale by comparison to this first and most important question. As we review the eyewitness testimony, we see that the conclusion is not difficult to reach -- that indeed, the President was shot both from the front and the rear. This conclusion can be reached by a consideration of several kinds of evidence: v where the eyewitnesses heard the shots coming from; v eyewitness accounts of the spacing of the shots, which came too close together for the lone assassin hypothesis to be maintained; v the total number of shots was too large for the lone assassin hypothesis to be maintained; v the early shot hitting the President was not the same as the shot hitting Governor Connally, invalidating the lone assassin hypothesis. 1 The route through Dallas The final decision for the President's route in Dallas was determined by Secret Service agent Winston Lawson, on Thursday, November 14.1 The WCR states that "Lawson was not specifi- cally instructed [on Nov. 8] to select the parade route, but he understood that this was one of his functions. Even before the Trade Mart had been definitely selected, Lawson and Sorrels began to consider the best motorcade route from Love Field to the Trade Mart. On November 14, Law- son and Sorrels attended a meeting at Love Field and on their return to Dallas drove over the route which Sorrels believed best suited for the proposed motorcade."2 The route was reviewed and approved by Chief of Police Jesse Curry, Asst.

    Was Lee Harvey Oswald in North Dakota

    Chapter 28 Lee Harvey Oswald; North Dakota and Beyond John Delane Williams and Gary Severson North Dakota would become part of the JFK assassination story subsequent to a letter, sent by Mrs. Alma Cole to President Johnson. That letter [1] follows (the original was in Mrs. Cole’s handwriting): Dec 11, 1963 President Lyndon B. Johnson Dear Sir, I don’t know how to write to you, and I don’t know if I should or shouldn’t. My son knew Lee Harvey Oswald when he was at Stanley, North Dakota. I do not recall what year, but it was before Lee Harvey Oswald enlisted in the Marines. The boy read communist books then. He told my son He had a calling to kill the President. My son told me, he asked him. How he would know which one? Lee Harvey Oswald said he didn’t know, but the time and place would be laid before him. There are others at Stanley who knew Oswald. If you would check, I believe what I have wrote will check out. Another woman who knew of Oswald and his mother, was Mrs. Francis Jelesed she had the Stanley Café, (she’s Mrs. Harry Merbach now.) Her son, I believe, knew Lee Harvey Oswald better than mine did. Francis and I just thought Oswald a bragging boy. Now we know different. We told our sons to have nothing to do with him (I’m sorry, I don’t remember the year.) This letter is wrote to you in hopes of helping, if it does all I want is A Thank You.

Image may, to some extent, (and sometimes almost perfectly) represent process. But process is always superior to and always more real than image. If process precedes image this might suggest also that mind precedes matter and energy. * Everything we believe, or say we know, is based on a factual or value judgment. Both kinds of judgment always entail the other to some extent, and nothing can be known or exists for us without them. * No fact or purported fact is true or false without someone to assert and believe it to be such. If an assertion or claim is deemed true or false then, and we are thorough, we should ask who is it that says so (or has said so), and what criteria are (were) they using? There is no such thing as "faceless" truth or reality -- at least none we are capable of knowing. * You can't escape reason. If you aren't rational yourself, someone else will be rational for you; nor do their intentions toward you need to be friendly or benevolent.
