Where it differs from Douglass\u2019 book, I think, is not so much in the evidence it relates or the conclusions it draws, but in providing an additional motivation for the crime.<\/p>\n<p><em>JFK and the Unspeakable<\/em>\u00a0depicts Kennedy as getting in the way of the violence that Allen Dulles and gang wished to engage in abroad. He wouldn\u2019t fight Cuba or the Soviet Union or Vietnam or East Germany or independence movements in Africa. He wanted disarmament and peace. He was talking cooperatively with Khrushchev, as Eisenhower had tried prior to the U2-shootdown sabotage. The CIA was overthrowing governments in Iran, Guatemala, the Congo, Vietnam, and around the world. Kennedy was getting in the way.<\/p>\n<p><em>The Devil\u2019s Chessboard<\/em>\u00a0depicts Kennedy, in addition, as himself being the sort of leader the CIA was in the habit of overthrowing in those foreign capitals. Kennedy had made enemies of bankers and industrialists. He was working to shrink oil profits by closing tax loopholes, including the \u201coil depletion allowance.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&#8230;click on the above link to read the rest of the article&#8230;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Why Allen Dulles Killed the Kennedys By now there\u2019s not nearly as much disagreement regarding what happened to John and Robert Kennedy as major communications corporations would have you believe.
