Decadent Worker #67 – 26Aug87

Decadent Worker 67“Gordon Novel’s wife testified to Jim Garrison that Novel was the clean-shaven person impersonating Oswald and fabricating evidence against him in advance of the assassination. William Seymore also was impersonating Oswald at the car dealership, rifle ranges, barber shop as well as meeting with Mrs. Sylvia Odio in Dallas on the evening of September 25, 1963. (CH XI, 367 et seq.)” — Jay Pound, “Who Told the Truth About JFK?” – Critique, p. 87, Spring/Summer 1986, #21/22 (Box 11451, Santa Rosa, CA 95406. A sample copy of Critique costs $6.)

Q. If Hunt was in Dallas 22 November 1963 with orders from the Bilderbergs and the CIA to kill John Connelly wasn’t that doing it the hard way, in terms of security, seeing that the President was there, too?

A. Hunt may have just had a contract on Connelly, with no specifications about when or where to shoot him, and may have picked the time and place where JFK was to be hit so as to embarrass his bosses, in addition to double-crossing them. People under him may have been told that the President was getting lax about security and needed to be frightened into being more careful, thus justifying hitting Connelly then and there to them — at least that much had been hinted to me.

“I think that subsequently, by now, the CIA may not have known where Hunt was at the time, and they may not even have realized what he was up to until years after and years later when his name started to be commonly mentioned in connection with the assassination. I think by now the CIA probably knows where Hunt was and what he was doing or have some very strong feelings about that, and what they’re not too happy about it. But whatever it was, and is, that Hunt was involved in, it seems to be, or would appear, that he was around Dallas about the time of the assassination, involved in some clandestine activity. It may have been illegal clandestine activity, even something the CIA was unaware of. The CIA acts very strangely about this. The CIA will not give Hunt any help… Helms gave a deposition which said nothing. No way would he go out on a limb for Hunt. In my own mind, I have a feeling that the CIA knows where Hunt was and what he was doing, and while they’re not going to prosecute him for a lot of reasons, they’re involved in the cover-up themselves and don’t want to bring any embarrassment upon the agency… Hunt, for his own part, might not be strong enough to bring them forward to defend him before any committee or in a court of law, it’s at least strong enough for them not to take any overt action against him… It’s a very, very strange thing.” — Victor Marchetti, “Ex-CiA Official speaks Out” by Greg Kaza, Full Disclosure (c) 1986 Capitol Information Association, Box 8275, Ann Arbor, Michigan 48107. $15/yr.

The role of Mark Lane, who served as an attorney for Jim Jones, is even more clearly intertwined. Lane had co-authored a book with Dick Gregory, claiming FBI complicity in the King murder…

With help from officials in Tennessee Governer Blanton’s office, Lane managed to get legal custody of a woman who had been incarcerated in the Tennessee state psychiatric system for nearly eight years. This woman, Grace Walden Stephens, had been a witness in the King murder… Grace Walden Stephens took up residence in Memphis with Lane, her custodian, and Terri Buford, a key Temple member who had returned to the U.S. before the killings to live with Lane. While arranging for for her to testify before the Select Committee on Ray’s behalf, Lane and Buford were plotting another fate for Grace Stephens. Notes from Buford to Jones, found in the aftermath of the killings, discussed arrangements with Lane to move Grace Stephens to Jonestown… Whether Grace ever arrived at Jonestown is unclear.

Lane was forced to leave Ray in the midst of testimony to the Select Committee when he got word that Ryan was planning a visit. Lane had attempted to discourage the trip earlier in a vaguely threatening scene, he failed to warn Ryan and others, knowing that the sandwiches and other food might be drugged, but refrained from eating it himself. Later, claiming that he and Charles Garry would write the official history of the “revolutionary suicide,” Lane was allowed to leave the massacre alive. Lane says he and Garry wandered through the jungle, using torn pieces of underwear to mark their way back to Georgetown. If true, it seems an unlikely method if they were in any fear of pursuit. They had heard gunfire and screams back at the camp. Lane was reportedly well aware of the forced drugging and suicide drills at Jonestown before Ryan arrived. (pp. 57-9)

The meticulous daily notes and drug records kept by Larry Schacht disappeared, but other evidence did not. The history of MKULTRA and its sister programs (…ARTICHOKE, BLUEBIRD, etc.) records a combination of drugs… electroshock and torture as methods for control… One goal was the ability to control mass populations especially for cheap labor. Dr. Delgado told Congress that he hoped for a future where a technology would control workers in the field and troops at war with electronic remote signals…

On the scene at Jonestown, Guyanese troops discovered a large cache of drugs, enough to drug the entire population of Georgetown, Guyana (well over 200,000) for more than a year. According to survivors, these were being used “to control” a population of only 1,100 people… Drugs used in the testing for MKULTRA were found in abundance… The actual description of life at Jonestown is that of a tightly run concentration camp, complete with medical and psychiatric experimentation… On the eve of the massacre, Forbes Burnham was reportedly converted to “born again” Christianity by members of the Full Gospel Christian Businessmen’s Association, including Lionel Luckhoo, a Temple lawyer in Guyana (pp. 52-3)

Decadent Worker #65 – 19Aug87

Decadent Worker 65“February, 1974: Mafia Hearst’s daughter Patty ‘kidnapped’ by Lipeet’s SLA in a fake terrorist action./Martin Luther King’s mother was murdered by a black student, a self declared ‘Israelite’ — ‘acting alone’ who was escorted to the church by somebody — and who had a list of other mothers as targets. Next day, the target, Shirley Chisholm, got the message and rushed to sign off on the DNC suit against CREEP naming Francis L. Dale, SHE HAD BEEN THE LAST HOLD OUT.” — Bruce Roberts, The Gemstone Files

“Another important figure in the murder of Martin Luther King was his mother, Alberta. A few weeks after the first public announcement by Coretta Scott King that she believed her husband’s murder was part of a conspiracy, Mrs. Alberta King was brutally shot to death in Atlanta, while attending church services. Anyone who had seen the physical wounds suffered by King might have been an adverse witness to the official version, since the wound angles did not match the ballistic direction of a shot from the rooming house. Her death also closely coincided with the reopening of the Tennessee state court review of Ray’s conviction based on a guilty plea…

“The man convicted of shooting King’s mother was Marcus Wayne Chenault. His emotional affect following the murder was unusual, grinning, he asked if he had hit anyone. He had reportedly been dropped off at the church by people he knew in Ohio. While at Ohio State University, he was part of a group known as ‘The Troop,’ run by a Black minister and gun collector who used the name Rabbi Emmanuel Israel. This man, described in the press as a ‘mentor’ for Chenault, left the area immediately after the shooting. In the same period, Rabbi Hill traveled from Ohio to Guyana and set up Hilltown, using similar aliases, and preaching the same message of a ‘Black Hebrew elite.’ Chenault confided to SCLA leaders that he was only one of many killers who were working to assassinate a long list of Black leadership. The names he said were on this list coincided with similar ‘death lists’ distributed by the KKK, and linked with the COINTELPRO operations in the ’60’s…

“Inside Guyana itself, approximately 25 miles to the south of Matthew’s Ridge, is a community called Hilltown, named after religious leader Rabbi Hill. Hill has also used the named Abraham Israel and Rabbi Emmanuel Washington. Hilltown, set up at about the same time as Jonestown, followed the departure of David Hill, as he was known in Cleveland, a fugitive of the U.S. courts. Hill rules with an ‘iron fist’ over some 8,000 Black people from Guyana and America who believe they are the Lost Tribe of Israel and the real Hebrews of Biblical prophecy. Used as strong arm troops, and ‘internal mercenaries’ to insure Burnham’s election, as were Jonestown members, the Hilltown people were allowed to clear the Jonestown site of shoes and unused weapons, both in short supply in Guyana. Hill says his followers would gladly kill themselves at his command, but he would survive since, unlike Jones, he is ‘in control.’

“Similar camps were reported at the time in the Philippines. Perhaps best known example is the fascist torture camp in Chile known as Colonia Dignidad. Also a religious cult built around a single individual, this one came from Germany…” (Copyright 1986 by Critique, a Journal of Conspiracies & Metaphysics. — John Judge.

WARNING: Most conspiracies recruit people they don’t like, for cannon fodder. Who would Nazis hate more than Blacks who wanted to be Jews? Also, kin of cult members are often extorted into service.

Decadent Worker #64 – 14Aug87

Decadent Worker 64Among the pranks that make my life more confusing than most, I’m told, is a Rockefeller and/or E. Howard Hunt project to convince people I’m a space alien instead of a war crimes witness. This collective delusion is seeded by actual UFO close encounters. Most individuals will gladly believe in magick, religious miracles or cosmic visitors before they will accept the possibility that technology is just a little more advanced than is generally known.

Actuall, I feel like an alien — alone with a species neither too dumb to create horrible weapons nor smart enough not to use them, an awkward link in evolutionary adolescence. That along lends credibility to the Earthquake Conspiracy Theory.

Otherwise, who would dream that humanity, upon discovering the causes, would not halt natural disasters? Instead, the U.S. and an organization identified via the grapevine as the Illuminati, is causing earthquakes:

Independent corroboration is found in the 1969 section of The Gemstone Files by Bruce Roberts: “Pentagon and Department of Interior researches study methods of inducing earthquakes by injecting fluids into deep wells. Also nuclear devices were tested for the same thing.”

Earthquakes rattled China in 1976 as soon as I began speculating about Jesuit infiltration of Mao’s Communist Party. A jolt struck San Francisco just as I delivered the punch line of a joke with possibilities for political interpretation. Naples shook soon after I made friends with a Neapolitan family with a Mafia reputation. Chile was shaken when I got in a fist fight with a man who may have been a Chilean agent. Mexico City rumbled the whole time I hitched along the Rio Grande.

Evidently, whenever foreign agents within U.S. boundaries earn the displeasure of the Pentagon, retaliation strikes their homeland. That I seem so often involved is probably because my case — which the authorities find too explosive to handle — serves instead as something of a domestic intelligence community communications reference point.

So when the U.S. becomes annoyed at Slobovian agents elsewhere in this nation, they manipulate a few of them over my way as they are meanwhile pumping fluids or whatever into the fault lines under Slobovia. That way everyone in the intelligence community understands who pissed off Uncle Same and, roughly, how — without the Pentagon having to officially admit it is wagin undeclared warfare.

I used to get mad at people who wouldn’t answer my questions about conspiracies of which they obviously knew something. Blackmail, extortion, fanaticism and ill will came to mind as motives for their clam-like silences. Gradually I have realized that in many cases there was much they knew I just would not have believed.

So add my Earthquake Conspiracy Theory to your list, along with my confessions of JFK assassination participation and my protestations that I am not expressing myself in cant, my insistence UFO’s are of terrestrial origin, that my person is bugged and surveilled by microscopic video cameras, that I hold two-way conversations with radios, etc. Someday you’ll say I told you so. — Kerry Wendell Thornley

Decadent Worker 63“When it was all over, the CIA operators who watched events unfold in Quarters Eye that Sunday agreed the outcome would have been different if Cabell had not been in charge.” — Peter Wyden, Bay of Pigs: The Untold Story (Simon and Schuster, 1979), p. 196

David Emory, drawing from Fletcher Prouty and other sources, says Cabell neglected to make the early-morning call to Nicaragua required before air support could head for Cuba. Robert D. Murrow says in Betrayal that Maurice Brooks Gatlin Sr. was spying on New Orleans anti-Castro activities director (Division 5, FBI) Guy Bannister for Air Force General Charles Cabell whose brother, Earl Cabell, was Mayor of Dallas. Murrow’s book also leaves the reader with reason to believe there was a pro-Castro agent in Charles Cabell’s (CIA) office. Was it Cabell himself? Did he think it would be a shame to fight a white Castillian and his mostly pure-blooded Spanish people? Was Cabell in contact with pro-Castro Mafia via John Connelly as his racetrack friends?

“May 1972: J. Edgar Hoover has the Gemstone File and threatens to expose Dallas-JFK in an ‘anonymous’ book, The Texas Mafia.” — Bruce Roberts, The Gemstone Files

A.J. Weberman, who proved the ears of the Mystery Tramps match exactly those of E. Howard Hunt and Frank Sturgis and who proved that Richard Sprague of the Assassination Information Bureau doctored a set of Tramp photos in trying to argue they were not of Hunt and Sturgis, decided that Hunt was on the Triple Underpass armed with a rifle when JFK was shot. Whenever I hitch-hike through Dallas I make a pilgrimage to Dealy Plaza. There is only one spot on the Underpass where a gunman could stand without being visible to the other spectators known to have also been up there. In 1979 in that exact spot I found, as if some agent of the conspiracy had left me a clue, a newsletter listing the names of all the Bilderberger members in the U.S. media. The Bilderbergers are the world’s richest club, much associated with Crown Prince Bernhard of Holland and the Illuminati. Did the Bilderbergers put out a contract through Hunt and/or CIA on John Connelly’s life? Brother-in-law told me: “I’m going to talk to everyone in the country who wants Kennedy dead about the idea of assassinating him. Then I’m going to do it. Then I’ll pay them all visits. I won’t say anything, I’ll just smile a lot. After that, I’ll feel free to call on them for favors.”

My 23rd birthday was 17 April 1961, the day of the Bay of Pigs. Slim Brooks gave me a haircut for a birthday present. A dreadlock was originally a lock of hair cut from the head of the victim of a witch’s hex. Brother-in-law mentioned that a strand of hair was as good as a fingerprint for identification. — Kerry Wendell Thornley

Decadent Worker 62FURTHER ILLUMINATIONS FROM CO-MAN RA

“On the right wing bit. This was a necessity, as the C.I.A. and F.B.I. were giving me a lot of trouble and until I assumed the identity of a rabid right winger I was in considerable trouble. The Fascist Jesuits dominated both outfits but I am likely to get into trouble as the Jesuits have gone over to the goddam Communists of late so I guess I have to become a rabid left winger now.” (12/2/77 letter to Kerry Thornley)

“If you can equate Jesuitism with Nazism, then there has been a great influence on China by Nazi style thinking.” (9/15/76 to Kerry)

“Please do not be offended, but if you have income again it is almost sure you are a government agent in one of your roles. Well, this is alright. On the ‘right wing’, I see I did not give you much information, and they will cut of your income unless you give them information. ‘Ve hafe vays of givink you information’.” (11/26/77 letter to Kerry Thornley)

“Ha! You are so right about the clowns getting off my back. I had to act pretty hairy to make it work, but it worked… Well, the conspirators tried to kill me before and it did not work. They, are indirectly responsible for the death of my first wife… On my harassment, I think of it as training I could have got no other way. They cut your income off by telling lies and you are supposed to commit suicide because you are as poor and flat as a plate of skimmed piss. Well, it gave me time to study and to learn to live with no visible means of support. That is, it is not visible to them.” (9/27/76 letter to Crabb)

“Jesuit infiltration of the 7th Day Adventist organization took place in 1888. Of course, the object of the Catholic Church ever since 325 A.D. is to promote the old Babylonian Trinity doctrine in the guise of Christianity.” (9/9/76 letter to “Present Truth”)

“That Kirstein fellow comes through as a Nazi on the surface of it, but this program is run by triple agents. That is, the libertarian revolution. You cannot tell a ‘real’ agent without a program.” (9/15/76 letter to Kerry Thornley)

“Any bunch of idiots could band dogether and steal their wives’ bed sheets and ruin them by cutting eye holes and harass some unpopular person, black or white. This depredation was then called ‘KKK activity’. Bullshit! The real Klan is not so crude. If (and this is rare indeed), it becomes necessary to waste somebody the job is handled by one man, like the old ‘hatchet man’ of the Chinese Tongs. The problem then becomes disposal of the body. The one place they never look for a body is in a graveyard. So the honored guest is taken to a graveyard at night and the dirt carefully removed from an already occupied grave. The corpse is then placed on the casket and the dirt in excess loaded and removed and the top very carefully replaced.” (11/28/77 letter to Kerry Thornley)

“‘Co-man-Ra’ is not an identity, it is a handy moniker for a person who is doing the work. It means ‘with man, power’ is all. This is true of anybody who wants to get off their ass.” (12/2/77 to Kerry)

“I am sending you some dope on the Kennedy thing. I think by now you know that this thing is a whole lot bigger than anyone knows. Some elements are strongly racist in this movement, a condition which strikes me as unscientific as the polar view… The split comes from a different orientation based on the great work of Spengler. Our direction is that of Korzybski, the other is that of Francis Parker Yockey. We agreed to work together, as the basis is the extreme unworkability of the present economy… You might say his whole movement is an iceberg, and presently the only visible part is Liberty Lobby in Washington.” (7/3/70 letter to Rev. Ray Broshears)

Decadent Worker 61HOW TO BECOME A REINCARNATION OF JUDAS

In early November of 1963 Slim and I arrived at the little house in Harahan, Louisiana, and Brother-in-law said to me, as soon as I sat down, “Kerry, give me some ideas about assassinating John F. Kennedy.”

I was more than happy to oblige; I had been saving up ideas about how to murder the President for years. I’d spoken of assassinating Kennedy to anyone who would listen to me ever since my arrival in New Orleans. My plans for murder ranged rom concealing sodium in his vitamin capsules so as to blow his stomach to pieces to designing a remote control model airplane with a bomb in it to hit him from a safe distance through a White House window.

Brother-in-law just sat there on the sofa, nodding eagerly and grinning excitedly at the worst of my suggestions. It was my turn to be moving about and gesturing wildly.

When I finally wound down, he just smirked and said, “Give me some more ideas.”

Thereupon I ran through my second-rate solutions for disposing of the man both Ayn Rand and I considered a fascist-socialist tyrant…

“Now, Kerry, I think when we assassinate Kennedy — if it becomes necessary to sacrifice one man in order to protect the assassins, then we should go ahead and sacrifice one man.”

“I agree with that.”

“And I think that if, besides sacrificing one man, we also have to sacrifice one woman for that purpose — then we should sacrifice that woman.”

“Yes,” I said, less certain now of where all this was leading.

“And then, if we have to sacrifice two men and two women, I think we ought to go ahead and sacrifice two men and two women. How about you?”

Slim was looking at me and laughing silently. Obviously I looked a little scared…

And so it went — a most baffling discussion — settling at last on what number of sacrificial victims I do not remember — and to what reasonable end I could not begin to guess…

“And what do you think about letting Jimmy Hoffa in on this thing?”

…After allowing a considerable silence to elapse, he grinned obnoxiously and said, “And next we’ll get Martin Luther King.”

“Aw, what do you want to kill King for?” I asked. It was not the first time he had made this suggestion…

“And, Kerry, I think the best way to kill President Kennedy and get away with it would be to involve all kinds of people — but to keep them under the impression they are working on other projects.”

“If you must involve large numbers of people, yes…”

“But in order to do that,” he said, “you would have to have a very large bureaucracy under your control.”

…I said in a disappointed tone of voice, “Yes.” For if anything was certain in my mind, it was that scrawny, TB-ridden Slim Brooks and his weird Nazi burglar of a brother-in-law did not control any bureacracies. Yet, to my bewilderment, Slim looked at Gary and Gary looked at Slim with expressions of absolute triumph in their eyes…

Slim indicated it was time to go and we headed for the door.

“The only remaining problem,” Brother-in-law said, “is who to frame for it… I figure I’ll frame some jailbird.”

“Why a jailbird?”…

A crooked smirk distorted his mouth so much that he had to bow his head in trying to hide it. “Well, Kerry, who would you suggest framing?”

“Aw, why don’t you frame some Communist?” I answered. (From The Dreadlock Recollections (c) by Kerry Wendell Thornley, 1984, pp. 174-8)
