The Decadent Worker

“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
