the William Attwood-Carlos Lechuga backchannel negotiations with Fidel Castro at
the UN and
12)

Julio Fernandez, one of
three anti-Castro Cubans whose boat was financially supported by Clair Booth
Luce, called Luce, wife of the publisher of Time-Life on the evening of the
assassination to report information on Oswald’s activities in New
Orleans. Fernandez, a former Cuban publisher, was married to an attorney who
worked for Catholic Welfare Services in Miami.
16)
Julio Fernandez, Sr.
publisher of newspapers in Cuba, was assisted in his defection and relocation
by the Cuban Aid Relief (CAR), sponsored by the CIA front Catherwood
Foundation, that also sponsored Cuban refugee relief services in Miami, New
Orleans and Dallas, and
17)
The Cuban Aid Relief and
the Catherwood Foundation, together with the Pan Am Foundation, co-sponsored a
conference for Cuban journalists in exile at the University of Miami (JMWAVE)
in July 1963, attended by Julio Fernandez, Jr.
18)
The Catherwood CIA fund also
sponsored the Russian Orthodox Church Outside of Russia had a parish in Dallas
area where Oswald’s daughters were baptized. In Dallas the Catholic Charities
and their CIA benefactors also assisted Father Walter McChann, the Catholic
priest who knew Syvia Odio and John Martino and administered to the Cuban
refugees in Dallas and New Orleans.
19)
In New Orleans the Catholic relief services

In New Zealand, U.S. Air
Force Col. Fletcher Prouty read complete biographies of Oswald in the local

his friend Gen. Krulak, whose assistant Col. Higgins, was briefed by the CIA’s
Desmond Fitzgerald on the adaption of the “Valkyrie” plot to kill Hitler to
Cuba.
23)
In Miami brothers Jerry
and James Buchanan, CIA propaganda assets, began promoting the Castro-did-it
theme immediately after the assassination. According to Donald Freed and Jeff Cohen
(in Liberation Magazine), the source of the Buchanan’s tales was the leader of
the CIA supported International Anti-Communist Brigade (IAB). They wrote “Back
in Miami a high powered propaganda machine was cranking out stories that Oswald
was a Cuban agent…”
24)
Frank Sturgis is quoted in the Pampara Beach
Sun-Sentinel as saying that Oswald had talked with Cuban G-2 agents and
fricasseed with IAB members in Miami in 1962.
25)
Jack Anderson used
Sturgis and mobster John Rosselli to keep the Castro plot propaganda story
going when Rosselli told Anderson that a JMWAVE covert action anti-Castro Cuban
commando team was captured, tortured and
turned around to kill JFK – What professor Peter Dale Scott calls the
“Phase Three” story.
26)
Jack Martin (Scruggs)
and David Lewis wrote (circa 1967) in a Houston Weekly (possibly the Texas
Observer) that the Humme Report – a Congressional Committee document implicates
RFK in the plots to kill Castro.
27)
The book Red Friday by
Carlos Bringuier, which publishes the names of the anti-Castro commando team
trained at JMWAVE that was captured and paraded before the media.
28)
The same
“propaganda machine” was still pumping out the same lines in 1976 when Gaeton
Fonzi interviewed Sturgis, who said that he had recently ran into a friend who worked
for the “company” who reminded him of an incident he had completely forgotten
about. Sturgis suddenly recalled, “that he had heard about a meeting in Havana
about two months before the Kennedy assassination. At the meeting there were a
number of high-ranking men, including Castro, his brother Raul, Ramiro Valdez,
the chief of Cuban intelligence, Che Guevara and his secretary Tanya, another
Cuban officer, an American known as ‘El Mexicano,’ and,…oh, yea; Jack Ruby. And
the meeting dealt with plotting the assassination of President Kennedy.”
29)
Seith Kantor, a
Scripps-Howard News Service Reporter in Dallas during the assassination,
couldn’t understand why his telephone call records from Parkland Hospital were
being withheld because “disclosure would reveal confidential source of
information.” When Kantor checked his own records he discovered his editor had
told him to call another reporter in Florida or some deep background on Oswald.
The reporter in Florida had everything on Oswald, FPFCC, Russian defection, New
Orleans radio debate, etc., but instead of using it himself, fed it to Kantor.
The reporter was Hal “the Spook” Hendrix, who won the Pulitzer Prize for his
coverage of the Cuban Missile Crisis and earned his nickname when he “reported”
on the Dominican Republic Coup on September 24, 1963, the day before it
happened. His CIA affiliations became better known when he went to work for ITT
in Chile and was found guilty of withholding information from a Congressional
committee concerning his role in the Chilean coup.
30)
While other major news
organizations have been exposed as CIA media assets, such as CBS News, Life
Magazine, the North American Newspaper Alliance and the Copley Newspaper chain,
the Scripps-Howard News Service (SHNS) stand out not only because of the
Kantor-Hendrix connection, but because of the March 12 news report out of
Washington. An obvious black propaganda operation that stems from NSA
intercepts (note that the NSA does not issue press releases), and continues to
implicate Castro in not only the assassination of President Kennedy, but in the
planning of an assassination on President Reagan. This story is remarkably
similar to the one that Sturgis tells [in #12] and includes many of the same
conspirators. [See: SHNS Story]. Also please note that two weeks after this
obvious piece of black propaganda disinformation was published, President
Reagan was shot in front of the Washington Hilton by John Hinkley.
31)
Steve K – the Man on the
Motorcycle in Mexico City, reportedly gave LHO a ride to the Cuban embassy on
the back of his motorcycle, had previously been to Cuba and photographed with Castro, a picture
published in the Temple University school newspaper.
32)
Brian Letell, former CIA
officer involved in Cuban operations and a professor at the University of
Miami, writes a book that attempts to implicate Castro in the assassination
based on the accusations of a former Cuban G2 intelligence officer who says
that Castro had him search for radio broadcasts out of Texas on the day of the
assassination. That would indicate Castro knew JFK would be in Texas - not that
he had foreknowledge of the assassination, as Letell falsely asserts.
33)
The bogus Mexico City Twist
Party story is resurrected by Phil Shenon in his book that is not so much about
Oswald being encouraged to kill JFK by Cuban diplomats, as it is more clearly
yet another example and case stury of
the CIA supported disinformation - black propaganda campaign to link Castro to
Oswald.
A Clear Example of a Black Prop Op and JFK Assassination. (Item
#30)
Besides Shenon, a clear example of this black propaganda disinformation campaign being used in other similar operations, years later, is the SHNS report in 1981, shortly before the attempted assassination of President Ronald Reagan.
Scripps-Howard News
Service – By R. H. Boyce. Thursday, March 12, 1981
Washington – The
National Security Agency has alerted the CIA, the White House and State
Department to a Latin American newspaper report saying Cuban President Fidel
Castro is plotting the assassination of President Reagan, Scripps-Howard News
Service has learned.
The NSA, which monitors published and broadcast information around the globe,
does not makes such “alert” messages available to the press. But SHNS obtained
a copy, which was marked “for official use only.” It included the text of the
newspaper report as well as a garbled message about the news story directed to
the head of Castro’s controlled news agency, Presna Latina.
Without revealing its sources, the news report, published yesterday in the
Caracas, Venezuela, newspaper El Mundo, asserted the assassination plot called
for the slaying to be carried out by Illich Ramirez Sancho, an international
terrorist known as Carlos the Jackal. Carlos is said to have organized the
massacre of Israeli athletes at the 1972 Olympic Games in Munich, West Germany,
and has been involved in dozens of terrorists acts.
U.S. officials said the NSA’s action in alerting the U.S. intelligence
community “suggests that while they are not necessarily ready to believe the
report of an assassination plot, nevertheless they (NSA) find it at least
worthy of looking into.”
The Caracas newspaper story said the assassination plan “was discussed in a meeting
of the International Trust of Crime in Cojimar, an exclusive beach club east of
Havana, with the participants of Montonero and Tupamaro thugs, Illich Ramirez,
Ramiro Valdez, Cuban Police Minister Carlos Rafael Rodriguez and Fidel Castro.”
No identification was found of Ramiro Valdez. Montonero “thugs” are terrorists
operating primarily in Argentina while Tupumaros thugs operate in Uruguay. The
article said Palestine Liberation Organization chief Yasir Arafat also participated
in the plan.
Presna Latina (Latin Press) often has been used by Castro for political ends.
The Pressa Latina correspondent in Caracas, at 9:47 a.m. EST yesterday, began
transmitting the El Mundo article by cable to Prensa Latina headquarters in
Havana. NSA monitored it. At the close of the text, Prensa Latina Caracas began
adding what appears to be commentary on the El Mundo report. It reads:
“Everything seems to indicate that Fidel Castro is planning the assassination
of U.S. President Ronald Reagan in the same way that he previously ordered the
assassination of John F. Kennedy and whose participation the high-ranking U.S.
government circles hid…”
There the Prensa Latina cable transmission stopped. Had it been ordered broken
off by the Venezuela government, say U.S. officials, NSA would have added the
words: “transmission interrupted,” to show Venezuela’s action. There was no
such NSA notation. Officials provided no explanation of why the transmission
ended in mid-sentence.
