bpete refers to "some guy named Mike Williams" - as if he doesn't know him. But for years he's been providing a link to Mike Williams website. It's the one shown as 9/11 myths.
He doesn't have that many links there- only a handful. Don't you think he knows who they are?
And, it's time to take yourself off UK time again. It's 9:20 as I type this:
Now, as far as the things I said about Oswald knowing the plan afterwards, that is totally separate from him knowing about the assassination plot. Oswald did not know about the latter (which of course came before). He did not even know that the Presidential motorcade was going to pass by the building that day, and he had to ask Junior Jarman to find out. The conspirators kept him completely in the dark about what they were doing.
However, once it happened, he was told what to do next, which was to go to the Texas Theater. They were hoping he'd get killed there in a shootout with police.
What's the alternative? That he just got a hankering for a war movie? Plus, it is obvious from his behavior at the theater that he expected to meet somebody; it was a rendezvous.
How did it get arranged? I can only guess about that, but there is the story of the children who reported seeing Oswald and Jack Ruby talking outside the TSBD after the assassination. So, it may have been Ruby who told Oswald what to do. And it makes sense because George Applin reported that Ruby was in the theater- just a few rows behind Oswald as he was struggling with and being overpowered by the cops. George Applin, by the way, met a mysterious, untimely death. So, was he killed to silence him for saying Jack Ruby was in the theater? Maybe. Obviously, it doesn't sound good because if anyone else was involved in getting Oswald to that theater, it means conspiracy.
So, all the evidence points to no foreknowledge by Oswald of the assassination. He was calmly eating a cheese sandwich and an apple at 12:20. According to MacRae, right after that, he walked by the front, saw Bill Shelley outside, and then rushed upstairs to "lock and load." Frankly, I think the prospect of all that would have put him off his cheese sandwich and apple. I don't see him as being that much of a foodie.
But, his movements after the assassination winding up at the Texas Theater, that had to be planned and not by him. He did have a hankering for a war movie, and he wasn't wandering around aimlessly and just wound up there. And he certainly didn't have anything to do with killing Tippit. The notion that he went into the theater to get off the street after the Tippit murder is preposterous, as he would have had to cover 14 blocks in broad daylight to get to the theater.
If he was going to duck somewhere, wouldn't he have ducked sooner?
So, I'm talking about two different things, MacRae: Oswald NOT KNOWING about the assassination plot but KNOWING about the post-assassination instructions he was given and which he followed.
