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

It is widely believed that Jose Perdomo, the anti-Castro Cuban who was recruited by the CIA, who was at the Bay of Pigs, who was a charter member of Operation 40, the secret Cuban hit squad organized by the CIA, who was a close friend and confidante of Frank Sturgis, was the doorman at the Dakota Apartments the night that John Lennon was killed.

The question arises: was Mark David Chapman the real killer? I doubt it. As with Sirhan Sirhan and Jack Ruby, they didn't need these mind control/Manchurian Candidate guys to actually kill anybody. They just needed them to take the blame for it. In Ruby's case, he wasn't even there at the time. He wasn't in the garage. He was already tucked away on the 5th floor being handled by SS Agent Forest Sorrels and others. They just slipped him into the story afterwards in a very cunning bait and switch. Ruby was so zombified, if they told him he had sex with his sister he'd have believed it. Seriously. That's how out of it he was, mentally. 

I'm not even finding any denials that it was Perdomo at the Dakota that night in December 1980. And I hope that there is no one who thinks that business was so slow in the assassination game that Perdomo had to take a side job as a doorman just to make ends meet. We can rule that out, can't we? So, this establishes, beyond any reasonable doubt, that the John Lennon assassination was yet another State murder. But, let's get something straight; Jimmy Carter was still President, but I don't think that he and his people did it. Reagan was about to take office, and whoever did it, did it under his auspices, not Carter's. I don't claim to know that Reagan had explicit knowledge of the hit- although it's possible he did. Let's face it: Reagan went on to approve a lot of international murders. The CIA did a hell of a lot of "covert action" under Reagan.  It was Richard Nixon who had labeled Lennon a subversive and had his Justice department do everything they could to get him deported, although unsuccessfully. So, this wasn't the State at the time; it was the Deep State; the State that was coming back into power. They're the ones who killed John Lennon. 

You know, besides killing the man and bringing such grief to his family and friends and fans, just think about the great music they most likely snuffed out. John Lennon may have continued writing songs for decades. Who knows what gems were lost.
