Entry: Blacklisted By NR Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/blacklisted_by_inr_i#15184 Post contents: "Instead liberals defined Oswald a lone frustrated crackpot." Actually, left/liberal "historians" have championed the idea that Oswald was the hapless pawn of an enormous conspiracy run by American intelligence agencies at the behest of the American ruling establishment. Or international power brokers. Or the Tri-Lateral Commission. Or… Masons. Chupacabras. …Bigfoot? But in the almost 45 years since the assassination, no evidence has surfaced of such a conspiracy, or the hyper-complex, still-ongoing cover-up necessary to obscure it, so left/liberals have slowly been edging away from it. Simply: There is no chance that such a fantastic “Twilight Zone” scenario could ever be proven true. Enormous conspiracies and cover-ups, especially those supposedly involving everything from the Texas Highway Patrol to the Supreme Court, involve a lot of people – specialists, enforcers… spies. Fact is, people talk. Over time, they spill the beans. More to the point: They sell out. For money. This is especially true of intelligence agents. If high-level spooks never got greedy and rolled on their own countries, the term “espionage” would not exist. In the almost half-century since that dark day in Dallas, no one has narc’d; no one has sold out. There aren’t even credible scraps of second-hand testimony – recollections of death-bed confessions and the like. Nothing. But this handy bit of science fiction accomplished two goals: It got the communist Lee Harvey Oswald – and thereby his defining dogma - off the hook. And it created fissures of doubt about the principles of this country’s government. After all: If our institutions are untrustworthy, are they valid? Are they legitimate? I think Oswald committed a history-twisting crime for his own motives, to sate his own demons. His story – and this country’s tragedy – became yet another chewy little bit of propaganda for the left. When the course of history’s saga doesn’t fit the dogma – lie and obfuscate, tar and malign. When reality contradicts the defining fairy tale, never give facts an even break. Sent at: 2009 01 07
