Fix the Bus

Prior to anyone planning anything about the assassination of JFK, the mission had to be okayed. Someone had to give the approval.

This authorization began shortly after the Bay of Pigs incident.

Get the ball rolling on a contingency basis, they said. We’re not completely sure about this guy, Kennedy. We might need to take him out.

Who is they?

Who were the people who gave the approval?

Was it the mob?

The Texas oil men?

The Corsican brotherhood?

A bunch of disgruntled yokels from New Orleans?

None of these organizations. 

None of these organizations would dare take something like this on for fear of reprisal.

Additionally they didn’t need any help in  finding like-minded people who wanted John F Kennedy out-of-the-way.

The election may have been close  between Nixon and JFK, but among the corporate elites, John Kennedy was not a popular person.

Sure, Leonard Bernstein liked him.

But Leonard Bernstein didn’t run Corporate America.

Nor did  any of the Hollywood celebrities like Frank Sinatra.

These guys don’t run the United States of America.

It’s Corporate America who runs the USA.

It’s been that way for sometime.

The democracy that we think we live under is a sham. 

Corporate America calls the shots. They accomplished this primarily through their think tanks (like the CFR) ,business relationships, school chums, and personal associations.

It was Corporate America that decided to take John F. Kennedy out of the White House prior to the 1964 elections.

Corporate America didn’t want to run the risk of having five more years of the Kennedy presidency.

They were of the opinion that too much damage had been done.

Well, who is they?

To begin with, there is no video camera evidence of people getting together.

Nor were any of the men who got together so stupid as to say that they did.

We can only take our best logical guess.

Here are the men who can be reasonably suspected to have authorized the Kennedy assassination.

• Averell Harriman
• Allen  Dulles
• Richard Helms
• John McCloy
• Prescott Bush
• Lucius Clay
• Dwight Eisenhower
• Arleigh Burke
• Henry Cabot Lodge
• Robert Lehman 
• Henry Luce

Why did I pick these men, and what qualifications would they have.

To begin with, these are the men who I would pick if I were gathering an executive committee to  decide a momentous event.

But of course, these men weren’t picked. They didn’t have to vie for any job whatsoever.

These men elected themselves.

Why?

Let’s begin with Averell Harriman.

Averell Harriman was a proud man. He was a man with an ego. Strike that, he was a man with a monstrous ego. This is not uncommon in politics.

Averell Harriman was accustomed to being around men of power.

He was born into wealth, the son of E H Harriman, a railroad magnate. He later  attended  Yale where he was conditioned to believe that he was one of the elites who was destined to rule the world.  While at Yale he was selected to become a member of Skull and Bones – an anti-American organization in which members agree to promote each other within the halls of power thus defying the meritocracy our Founding Fathers established.

He played an important role in the affairs of the nation during and after World War II.

He was instrumental in negotiating and implementing Lend Lease during WWII which was vital to reinforcing the British and their fight against the Nazis.

He later worked with Truman to implement the Marshall plan and NATO during which he met most of the consequential leaders of the world.

Knowing personally men such as Churchill  and Stalin  he was in his mind the most qualified elder statesman in the country.

And he was probably right.

Unfortunately, John Kennedy did not see things  that way. Kennedy  was of the opinion that Harriman was old hat.  What Kennedy wanted in his administration was new blood.  And a new approach. JFK desired to put an end to neo-colonialism which he felt in the long run created communist monsters like Fidel Castro.

And there was nothing wrong with pursuing that approach.

Unfortunately, Harriman was a proud man who was easily slighted.  

Although he played a role in the Kennedy administration, his role was far down the ladder from where he expected it should be.

He desperately wanted to be the Secretary of State.

To his dismay, he  was not included in the inner circle when it came to making policy decisions about Cuba and the Soviet Union’s  presence there.

This must’ve wounded him deeply.

It wouldn’t take too much prodding from his former attorney, and then ex-CIA director , Allen Dulles, to get a little revenge.

Which I believe he did.

Working together with other friends such as Prescott Bush, he collaborated perhaps informally with former rivals and acquaintances such as McCloy, Eisenhower, Clay, and Lodge to form an unofficial committee to decide the fate of JFK.

Can I prove that these men met at any specific time to discuss this matter?

No.

Did they collaborate to decide the fate of JFK?

Yes.

The principals of this Gang of 10 were all fiercely anti-communist.  They had all expended much of their life energy in fighting the communist threat.

The entire point of the Marshall plan and NATO was too act as a bulwark against the communist threat coming from the Soviet Union.

It was a big deal to them..

Expansion of the American Empire was the best way to achieve that.

Each one of these men perceived JFK as a threat to what they had worked for their entire lives.

They were all committed fascists through deed in the true sense of the word.

Although anti-communist himself, JFK had a different vision of how communism should be attacked.  In  his mind, it wasn’t enough to set up dictatorial satrapies in Latin America and Southeast Asia.  Henceforth  the native people would have to be given a stake in the game.

The United States would have to take a different course of action. This his program Alliance for Progress. Thus his anti-colonialist attitudes in Indonesia, the Congo, Laos and Vietnam.

This was anathema to his enemies who were not only interested in fighting communism, but also the huge profits that Empire would bring to their pocketbooks.

At his core, Harriman was a banker. So was Bush.  As was McCloy.  Harriman was the founder of Harriman and Brothers, which merged with Brown Brothers to become Brown Brothers Harriman.  

McCloy, a Harvard graduate,  worked for the Rockefellers. Indeed, he tutored young Nelson and David Rockefeller.

Is it surprising that McCloy became a member of the Warren Commission?

It shouldn’t be.

McCloy his entire life fervently desired to run with the swift, to be where the action was.

And he did.

He met many prominent people in his life’s journey one of who was Lucius Clay who he succeeded as High Commissioner of Germany.

 Both men also became the leaders of the American Council on Germany – an an offshoot of the Council on Foreign Relations.

Both men were fascists.

Along with their buddy Ike they were responsible for creating the modern military industrial complex notwithstanding Ike’s comical warning to beware of such an entity.

The relationships between these men are too vast and overwhelming to discuss in a single sitting, and they themselves could not and would not deny these relationships. They are a matter of public record.

These are the men who ruled America in 1963 and before. They and the firms they worked for – firms such as Brown Brothers Harriman, Chase Manhattan Bank, Chemical Bank, JP Morgan, Morgan Guaranty Trust, Cravath Swaine and Moore – did collaborate formally or informally to institute regime change in 1963.

Particularly, John McCloy and Allen Dulles were chiefly responsible for the creation of the CIA which carried out the dastardly deed against Kennedy.

As stated previously, there is no meeting that can be proved. Only circumstantial evidence can be demonstrated that these men did have the motive, the desire, the means and the wherewithal to remove JFK from office.

***

Now some may say that these men had too impeccable a reputation to risk getting caught.

First, they weren’t going to get caught.

Second, men of this stature deem themselves immune from getting caught. And they are right.

Third, men of this stature were necessary in order to stave off as much investigation as possible.

One would think logically that the fewer the people involved, the better. And this is true. But one must also include enough people of influence to stave reasonable inquiry.

In this group of ten, we have representatives of the following institutions and groups:

• The Army
• The Navy
• The Rebublicans
• The Democrats
• The CIA
• The Boston Brahmins
• The New York Banking Establishment
• The New York Legal Establishment
• The Main Stream Media

This is a formidable enemy.

Donald Gibson has written an excellent book entitled Battling Wall Street: The Kennedy Presidency in which he details JFK’s enemies for all to see. He shows us clearly who they are and why they wanted him gone.

It was nota conspiracy int he traditional sense. It was out there in plain sight.

Here you will find a detailed PDF map showing many of these relationships. I could have gone further, but perhaps less is more.
