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

From when it was first shown to the public in 1975, people should have realized that the sign was fake. Just from driving all their adult lives, they should have realized that it couldn't be a real road sign. 

And in this case, not only is the angle of the sign wrong (it should be 90 degrees to the road) but the size of it is wrong (it is way too large) and the location of it is wrong (it was lower on the hill). So, why didn't people scream bloody murder the first time they saw this?

I mentioned in my first report that the sign became a curtain, like a magician's curtain, blocking the view and fostering the desired illusion. You've heard of the Magic Bullet? Well, like at a magic show, the magic had to happen behind something. The magician at least has to turn around to get the magic done. And in this case, the magic was that a single bullet traversed the bodies of two men, causing 7 wounds between them. 

But, it wasn't just that. The other purpose of the phony side was to hide the fact that Kennedy was wounded long before he reached the sign, that he rode down the hill having been shot in the back, long before he was shot in the throat. It meant that they had to cut out a large swath of the film, which undoubtedly showed Kennedy in an altered state-in which he was not smiling, not waving, and obviously in distress. That's the reason he had to get to the sign right away. They couldn't show how he really looked as he approached it. 

The fact  is that the Stemmons freeway sign in the Zapruder film is the centerpiece of the whole film. It is like the bull in the proverbial china shop. 

It is also clear and unmistakable evidence of a crime: tampering with evidence and obstruction of justice. The Zapruder film is evidence of the murder of President Kennedy, and it is also evidence of the cover-up of his murder. So, who committed that crime? Essentially, it was the same people who committed the first crime; the people who killed him. The film was in the possession of TIME/LIFE, but just think CIA. Henry Luce was another ultra-right-wing magnate, like David Harold Byrd, the Hunt Brothers, Clint Murchison Sr., Prescott Bush, etc. Luce did not make the decisions about what would be done to the Zapruder film. He wasn't going to take that responsibility. So, who did? I suspect it was Dino Brugioni, the head of the CIA's "National Photographic Interpretation Center" (a euphemism if there ever was one). It comes down to the undeniable fact that if Lee Harvey Oswald didn't kill Kennedy (and he didn't) then the U.S. government did. And I don't mean "rogue elements" of the U.S. government. I mean the very institutions of the U.S. government, including top officials within Kennedy's own National Security Council. As Vincent Salandria told us, it was the National Security State that killed Kennedy; not Oswald, not the Mafia, and not just a few rogue elements within the CIA. It was a coup d'etat. 

I don't say that everyone high in government knew. But, those that didn't quickly figured out that they needed to go along with the official story in order to survive. And when I say survive, I mean survive in government and survive in life, because, as you know, accidents happen. 

We are in the year of the 60th anniversary, so what should happen this November? I think there should be a march on Washington, and I can think of two shouts for the maching activists. One is: "Stop the Lies! Oswald outside!" The second is: "The sign's a phony! Blame Brugioni!"
