#205~ June 22, 2023: "Operations 'NORTHWOODS' And 'MONGOOSE': RFK, Lansdale, And CIA."
from THE DALLAS ACTION · host Doug Campbell
IN THIS EPISODE~ Thanks to the "decidedly-NOT-grounded-in-Primary-Resource-Material-Study"-variety of books, blogs and movies over the years, our understanding of the truth of the dynamics between the Kennedy Brothers and the National Security Apparatus has become a bit...skewed...over the decades since The President's murder.Sadly, many people newer to The Case are unaware of the truth of this dynamic. For example, some actually believe that "Operation MONGOOSE" was a CIA operation, or that Allen Dulles had a hand in "Operation NORTHWOODS". Or worse, that CIA placed Brigadier General Ed Lansdale in charge of MONGOOSE. Why? Because they heard an "expert" say it, saw it in a movie, or read it in a blog or book.We will read and discuss Primary Resource Documentation regarding MONGOOSE, and take a Deep Dive into the JCS-proposed horror show that was NORTHWOODS, and look at (1) aspect of NORTHWOODS that seems to have intrigued the Attorney General. So much so that~six days after JFK rejected it~ RFK circled back with the JCS, to see if it might really work.JOIN THE CONVERSATION.Written And Hosted by Doug Campbell.Recorded And Engineered by Momo Scaranucci for Drop-D Podcast Productions.Music:"She's The Woman", by Van Halen"This Corrosion", by Sisters Of Mercy"Dusted", by ZZ Top
