Oswald in the doorway: the blog of the Oswald Innocence Campaign, by Ralph Cinque

Yes, I know they had an acclaimed writer in Theodore Strauss and an acclaimed actor in Richard Basehart. And they had an acclaimed composer in Elmer Bernstein. But, it was all to tell a lie. And bringing in big names only served to make the lie more credible. 

Is that a good thing? Not if you know that it's a lie and cherish the truth. 

Four Days in November is not a documentary; it is a piece of political propaganda. When a documentary lies, I don't think we should call it a documentary. I don't think it deserves that title. And anyone who is appalled by the official story of the assassination, the official lie, should have contempt for this movie and what it tried to communicate. 

Why would any real advocate of Oswald innocence praise it? It frames Oswald. It completely misrepresents what really happened on November 22, 1963. The whole thing is a complete, utter lie. 

So, who cares that they got Theodore Strauss and Richard Basehart? That doesn't exonerate it. It doesn't elevate either. All it does is dress up the lie with dignitaries. It adds the luster of celebrities to the lie.  

That was a time in which it was easy to rally the nation behind whatever officialdom declared and decreed. It's must harder today. Today there is an internet which challenges officialdom like never before, and thank goodness. 

But back then, the word spread very quickly that every loyal American had better get behind the official story. It became a litmus test for patriotism. Don't you think that that kind of loyalty to the state is more fitting to Red China and Nazi Germany? 

So, the movie Four Days, in its intent and its content, is a disgusting spectacle of state lies. And if Joseph Backes were a real JFK truther he would know that.
