  • Ex-Spy Says She Drove to Dallas with Oswald & Kennedy 'Assassin
    Ex-Spy Says She Drove To Dallas With Oswald & Kennedy 'Assassin Squad' By PAUL MESKIL A former spy says that she accompanied Lee Harvey Oswald and an "assassin squad" to Dallas a few days before President Kennedy was murdered there Nov. 22, 1963. The House Assassinations Committee is investigating her story. Marita Lorenz, former undercov- er operative for the CIA and FBI, told The News that her companions on the car trip from Miami to Dallas were Os. wald, CIA contract agent Frank Sturgis, Cuban exile leaders Orlando Bosch and Pedro Diaz Lanz, and two Cuban broth- ers whose names she does not know. She said they were all members of Operation 40, a secret guerrilla group originally formed by the CIA in 1960 in preparation for the Bay of Pigs inva- sion. Statements she made to The News and to a federal agent were reported to Robert Blakey, chief counsel of the Assassinations Committee. He has as- signed one of his top investigators to interview her. Ms. Lorenz described Operation 40 as an ''assassination squad" consisting of about 30 anti-Castro Cubans and their American advisers. She claimed the group conspired to kill Cuban Premier Fidel Castro and President Kennedy, whom it blamed for the Bay of Pigs fiasco.

  • S Spies: the Evolution of Spy Units Through Obama Administration
    The Pentagon’s Spies: The Evolution of Spy Units through Obama Administration By Jeffrey T. Richelson Region: USA Global Research, July 07, 2015 Theme: Intelligence The National Security Archive 6 July 2015 Washington, D.C. – On April 20, 2012, Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta formally established a new Department of Defense spy organization — the Defense Clandestine Service (DCS). That memo marked yet another in the multiple starts, stops, and reversals in the human intelligence activities of the Department of Defense and the military services. The defense community’s rocky history of involvement with HUMINT includes both war- related and non-war missions, overt and covert programs, conflicts with Congress over the lack of transparency, and inevitable bureaucratic tensions among the uniformed services. Today, the National Security Archive updates its 2001 Electronic BriefingThe Book, Pentagon’s Spies, adding thirty-five new documents that bring the history of military HUMINT activities up to the year 2015. In addition to the Panetta memo (Document 50), this update contains records concerning: The House Permanent Select Committee’s discovery of the existence of the U.S. Army Intelligence Support Activity (Document 8, Document 10) The role of Admiral Bobby Inman in the disestablishment of Task Force 157 (Document 40) Operations of two Air Force human intelligence organizations – the 1127 Field Activities Group and the Air Force Special Activities CenterDocument ( 3a, Document 14a) Defense HUMINT Service activities in operations other than war (Document 30) The work of the Iraq Survey Group (Document 37) Expansion of Army and Air Force HUMINT operations since 2002Document ( 39, Document 41, Document 46, Document 54) The Pentagon’s Spies By Jeffrey T.

  • A Dark Corner of Camelot
    A dark corner of Camelot 50 years after President Kennedy asked his brother Robert to oust Castro, RFK’s files at the JFK Library remain in family control, largely out of view By Bryan Bender Globe Staff / January 23, 2011 WASHINGTON — Stacked in a vault at the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum in Dorchester, individually sealed and labeled, are 54 crates of records so closely guarded that even the library director is prohibited from taking a peek. And yet, archivists contend, the trove contains some of the most important records of Cold War history: diaries, notes, phone logs, messages, trip files, and other documents from Robert F. Kennedy’s service as US attorney general, including details about his roles in the Cuban missile crisis and as coordinator of covert efforts to overthrow or assassinate Fidel Castro. A half-century after those critical events, a behind-the-scenes tussle continues over the Kennedy family’s refusal to grant permission for researchers to freely review them. The disagreement lingers even as the JFK Library this month celebrated the 50th anniversary of John Kennedy’s inauguration by providing “unprecedented’’ access to thousands of records of his presidency. “The RFK papers are among the most valuable, untapped archival resources of foreign policy and domestic history left to be excavated,’’ said Peter Kornbluh, a senior analyst at George Washington University’s National Security Archive, who has been rebuffed several times in his attempts to gain access to the papers. “This history is immediately relevant to the ongoing debate over US policy toward Cuba,’’ he added.

  • INSERT to CHAPTER SIX B. Records on Cuba 3
    INSERT TO CHAPTER SIX B. Records on Cuba 3. Presidential library collections Overview: In response to the public interest in and speculation about the possible connection between Cuba or U.S.policy toward Cuba and the assassination of President Kennedy, the Review Board requested the John F. Kennedy and Lyndon Baines Johnson presidential libraries to search its holdings of Cuba records for assassination-related information. These presidential libaries identified additional records for the JFK Collection in the Cuba country files, the National Security files, various office files and personal papers of White House officials, and in certain unprocessed collections of presidential aides and policy advisors. JFK Library records. Augmenting the JFK Library’s initial search and identification of assassination records, a joint team of Review Board staff and representatives from CIA, State Department and OSD, visited the JFK Library in June, 1996 to conduct a comprehensive review of JFK Library closed collections. This joint-effort enabled an on-site declassification of records. The Review Board staff was granted access to all of the Library’s National Security Files containing records on Cuba from the Kennedy administration. As a result of this effort, the 2 JFK Library released 30 boxes of Cuba files which included assassination records identified by the Review Board that were sent to the JFK Collection. The Library also opened the presidential recordings on the Cuban Missile Crisis and sent copies of these to the JFK Collection. Subsequent to this visit, additional records on Cuba were identified as assassination-related. The Review Board coordinated the declassification of those records requiring multiple agency review.

  • Was the CIA Involved in the Assassination of President Kennedy Or the Cover up Conspiracy?
    Was the CIA Involved in the Assassination of President Kennedy or the Cover Up Conspiracy? Introduction: For more than ten years there has been much speculation about whether the Central Intelligence Agency played a role in the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. With the Watergate revelations, the testimony of such well known CIA types as Richard Helms, E. Howard Hunt, and James McCord, and with many questions about the CIA's role in the Watergate episode still unanswered, it seems pertinent to once again raise the questions in the title. Was the CIA involved in some way in the conspiracy to assassinate John Kennedy, and was the agency involved in the second conspiracy to cover up the first? Various assassination researchers and writers have, through the ten years, shown substantial evidence that CIA front organizations and former CIA agents were involved in the first conspiracy and that the CIA itself was deeply involved in the cover up conspiracy. (1)(2)(3)(4) Recent revelations and.new evidence has appeared that make the questions worth further exploration. 2 E. Howard Hunt and Mexico City: The most recent revelations concern that compulsive spy, Everette Howard Hunt. Tad Szulc (5) has informed us that Hunt was CIA acting station chief in Mexico City during August and September, 1963. Because of a hole in the known whereabouts of Hunt, as documented by Szulc, we can draw the conclusion that he was still acting station chief in October and November 1963. To the uninitiated this may seem disconnected from the JFK assassina- tion. However, to the researchers who have had access to the statements made by CIA agents Harry Dean, Richard Case Nagell and to FBI reports about CIA agents Ronald Augustinovich and Mary Hope, Hunt's position in Mexico City is very significant.
