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

One of the things I was focused on before the Corona Crisis hit was the idea that JFK was hit with a paralyzing agent prior to his entering the Kill Zone. And, you can add it to the list of things that I am strongly convicted about. I consider it a sure thing, and the significance of it is very great. It pertains not just to what happened to Kennedy but to what happened to the Zapruder film. There is widespread acceptance in the JFK community, that is, on the conspiracy side of it, that the Z-film was altered. But, the magnitude of its having been corrupted rises to a whole new level when you realize that it had to be revised to cover up the drugging of Kennedy. 

I have often said that the JFK assassination seems to exist within its own realm, like it happened in its own world, apart from the regular world. It was such a singular event, in history, and people tend to treat it like a singular event, also in terms of its physics, for instance, the "Magic Bullet" and in terms of its behavior. 

How much has been said and written about JFK's behavior in the Zapruder film? Practically nothing. In fact: I have never read anything about it. And yet, his behavior is very weird. After being shot, he took no action to protect himself or the other occupants in the car, including his own wife, the mother of his children. 

And speaking of children, JFK behaves like one in the Zapruder film. Jackie dotes on him, like she would a child; holding him, and trying to comfort him and also trying to get him to relax and lower his stiff arms, and she has very little success doing it. All the while, JFK seems oblivious to what is going on. He seems inebriated. Mentally, he is out of it.  He's lost. How do you account for that? And, it has to be accounted for. WHY IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT IT? 

It's because it's the JFK assassination, and people accept its abnormalities because they consider it a singular event. Well, that is a self-indulgence, and to all JFK researchers, I say: stop it. JFK's weird behavior has to be factored into the analysis of the  event. And, we have to stop evading it. 

And ultimately, this is a MEDICAL matter. It is for DOCTORS to assess his condition- the kind and amount of trauma that he has incurred up to this point, and the effect that that would have on his body- as well as his mind. We are looking at DYSFUNCTION there in Kennedy: physical and mental dysfunction. What is the cause of it? How did it happen? How do you explain his behavior? 

Now obviously, the official story has it that Kennedy's neck had been traversed by a big, fat bullet which tunneled a channel all the way through his neck from back to front, which exited practically dead center, after having entered slightly to the right of center. So, they are claiming that he was like a doughnut with a hole all the way through his neck; yet, he had no paralysis. What he is exhibiting there is the opposite of paralysis; it is spasticity. Yet, it is well known that when motor nerves get cut, the result is paralysis. 

So, they are claiming that, despite the centeredness of the bullet's trajectory, that not a single motor nerve got disrupted. Obviously, they had to say that the spinal cord wasn't hit because if the bullet had severed his spinal cord, he would have been gone; dead. But, since his spinal nerves had to be intact in order for him to do what we see him doing there, they're also claiming no damage to the spinal nerves. But, that seems impossible when you consider the assumed path of the bullet. And when you add the effect of the inflammatory reaction that would have ensued immediately, you have to wonder how he could retain the use of those muscles that he's using there. It does not make physiological and patho-physiological sense. 

But, that's all physical. What about the mental side of it? Why is Kennedy such a basket case mentally? His brain wasn't hit. Eventually, it was, of course, and it killed him instantly. He still had some vital function that persisted for a little while, but upon receiving the fatal head shot, he was as dead as a chicken with its head cut off. 

But, prior to that, JFK exhibits bizarre behavior, both physically and mentally, and it is up to doctors, who are trained in Pathology, to explain it.

But, if we throw out the Single Bullet Theory, as all JFK disputers do, what are we left with in the way of trauma to Kennedy prior to Z313? We are left with a superficial wound to his back that was, for all practical purposes, harmless;. It might as well have been a scratch. And, we are left with a shallow wound to his throat, that apparently disrupted his airway, momentarily, and put him in a panic. But somehow, that got resolved, where he was able to breathe OK. And that too amounted to a very localized trauma. 

So, as we look at this photo, we know that Kennedy was affected by two very localized traumas, neither of which affected his brain.

So, why is JFK's behavior so weird, and I mean his muscular usage as well as his cognition and the lack of it. WHAT HAPPENED TO JFK'S MIND? WHY IS HE SO LOST, SO OUT OF IT?

If you try to explain it based on the physical trauma alone, you are reaching. You are stretching. You are engaged in self-delusion. The physical trauma can't explain it. And if you try to go that route, I am going to say to you, "Show me the comps." Show me similar cases in which shooting victims suffered such spastic effects and mental impairment. There is nothing else like this. There is no other shooting victim who compares to this. JFK is alone in the annals of medical science in acting this way. And, the comparison that Dr. John Lattimer tried to make to Dr. Thorburn's patient who suffered a crushing trauma to his spinal cord, where the whole spinal cord at the level of C5 was crushed, squeezed and flattened as if with pliers has no parallel whatsoever to Kennedy. Lattimer's comparison is nothing less than a medical outrage. It is an insult to anyone with the slightest education in Neurology. 

Neither JFK's spasticity nor his mental degradation can be explained by the physical trauma he received to this point. Those things can only be explained by pharmacology. But, it goes beyond that because when you consider the real injury to JFK's back, which was extremely shallow and extremely minimal, you realize that a bullet could not have done that. THE TRAUMA OF A BULLET TRAVELING AT OVER 2000 FEET PER SECOND COULD NEVER HAVE BEEN LIMITED TO THAT. And any bullet traveling at speed and reaching Kennedy could never have been stopped by the resistance of his soft tissues the way that projectile was- whatever it was. It was most certainly not a bullet.

So, Kennedy was shot in the back with an irregular projectile, what many have called a "frozen dart" in reference to the 1975 Church Committee hearing. And it delivered a, or perhaps more than one, pharmaceutical, which happened high on the hill, well before the limo entered the Kill Zone, and it took massive alteration of the Zapruder film to hide this fact. 

And to anyone who wants to dispute it, what you need to do is explain the pathophysiology of this in some other way.
