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

 This is a tale of two photos and two captions that speaks volumes. On the left is the Willis photo, which says it was taken a split-second before JFK was shot. On the right is the Altgens photo which shows JFK already having been shot, and it says that Secret Service agents are looking toward the directions the shot (came from). But, that doesn't make sense because, supposedly, the shots came from the 6th floor of the Book Depository. So, why would the agents be looking at the doorway. No one ever said the shots came from there. Shouldn't they be looking up at the 6th floor window?

But, the point is that the limo is obviously a lot lower on the hill in the Willis photo than in the Altgens photo. So, how could JFK be already shot in the Altgens photo but not yet shot in the Willis photo? It's impossible.

And that caption for the Altgens photo was used a lot by thenewspapers, although not always in those exact words. Some of the papers put that the Secret Service agents are looking at the source of the shots. Again it makes no sense because no one ever claimed that shots came from the doorway. Just because it's the same building means nothing. The 6th floor window was a long way from that doorway. So, if shots came from the 6th floor window, why would agents be looking down at that doorway?

But, I really do believe that the SS agents looking at the building was the reason why the CIA photo-alterers were hell-bent on salvaging the Altgens photo, even though Oswald was in it. They thought that was gold and worth all the risk of massively altering the photo, which they did.

It is simply impossible that the Willis photo was taken before the Altgens photo, and anyone with a shred of honesty will admit it. Note also that the Willis caption states that JFK was waving at spectators, but, he was NOT waving. And I assure you that the Willis photo was massively altered too. I'll go into that in a separate post. But, without a doubt, the Altgens photo was taken high on the hill, long before JFK was shot in the throat. Howver, he was shot in the back, which happened as soon as he completed the turn from Houston.

But, it was not a bullet. It was an ice flechette that penetrated very little. A bullet travelling 2000 feet per second could never have stopped that fast. But, ice is fragile and unstable and prone to bursting, as ice cubes sometimes do. If JFK was simply shot in the back with a bullet, he would have known it, and it would have done nothing to his mind. But, he felt very little, no more than like a mosquito bite, according to CIA Director William Colby. But, very rapidly, the toxic payload started deranging him, which we can see in the Zapruder film. Showing us JFK's derangement, physically and mentally, is the greatest value that the Zapruder film has.
