Two U.S. Soldiers Overheard JFK Assassination Plans.
By Jerry Kroth
July 11, 2018 "Information Clearing House" -In November, 2017 President Trump released 35,000 documents the Kennedy assassination that were withheld for half a century. He wanted to release more, but the CIA requested more time. He gave them six months, and, on April 26 of this year another 18,000 documents came forth.
The media hardly covered the April release, and, overall, the reporting was cursory at best and pathetic at worst. These documents consummately alter our understanding of the assassination, of Jack Ruby, of Marina Oswald, David Ferrie, Richard Helms, J. Edgar Hoover, and certainly Lyndon Johnson.
But let us take a smaller bite from this apple.
Introducing Eugene V. Dinkin. Two documents were released about this man in November which caught my attention, and one more appeared in the 2018 release.
Frankly, as an academic who wrote two
books on JFK, I never heard of him.
Since it took 54 years to lift the veil of
censorship on this account, perhaps Eugene
should not be ignored any more than he
already has.
Are You Tired Of The Lies And Non-Stop Propaganda? |
Private First Class Eugene Dinkin worked
in Metz, France. He was a cryptographic code
operator for the U.S. Army and in early
November, 1963, three weeks before the
assassination, he discovered something
sobering, a plot to assassinate the
President of the United States. He
intercepted—or decoded— two messages, and
the names he relayed all make a lot of sense
today, a French/Corsican assassin, Jean
Souetre, Guy Banister, and William Harvey.
That was in 1963, but in 2007, former CIA
majordomo, Howard Hunt, made a deathbed
confession about the assassination to his
son and mentioned two of those suspects. His
son, quite unaware of Eugene Dinkin,
scrambled to take notes and videotape his
father. Hunt’s revelation can been on
Youtube today.
Retuning to Dinkin, in early November,
Private Dinkin was so concerned about his
discovery, he had his friend mail a letter
to Robert Kennedy. The letter warned RFK
that an assassination plot was underway and
would occur in Texas about November 28th.
Dinkin said that plans were that the murder
would be blamed on either a communist or a
Negro.
Dinkin had serious doubts his letter would
ever each him, so with a jolt of derring-do,
he deserted his post and made it to
Switzerland to a UN press briefing room
where he thought he might get better
reception. The U.S. military picked him and
shipped him off to Walter Reed to a
psychiatric ward. He was confined for the
next six months.
Trump’s two released cables say Dinkin went
to Geneva on the 6th of November with his
story.
That was exactly 17 days before Kennedy was
murdered. “Neither the FBI nor the Warren
Commission ever investigated the Dinkin
case, ” despite his clear prediction.
A second soldier peeks through Trump’s document dump too, and entirely independent of Eugene Dinkin, David Christensen:
There are two CIA documents on him which were released in April. Christensen was an Air Force Sergeant who was stationed at Kirknewton, Scotland. He intercepted a communication just before Novemeber, 1963 that an assassination attempt would be made on President Kennedy.
Little substantive information beyond this fact is given except that Kirknewton was an RAF base, which had a relationship with the CIA, which was using it as a top-secret listening station.
Christensen heard something he shouldn’t have heard, and he heard it in a top-secret CIA listening post. As you can probably guess, Sgt. Christensen, like Eugene Dinkin, was summarily “committed to a mental institution.”
One should raise an important question
here as with all of these released
documents: why were they withheld for half a
century?
Clearly, if two psychotic persons ranted off
about the President being killed—and both
properly confined to mental institutions as
deranged —such stories would merely
constitute tabloid pulp and not rise above
the level of the National Enquirer. The fact
that these stories never graced our
supermarkets, but were withheld from the
public and from scholars for five decades is
certainly worth more than a raised eyebrow.
Two code operators, in secret American
military installations, quite independently
of each other—and both obviously with
clearances—discovered chatter, decidedly
secret chatter, about the coming
assassination of the President of the United
States. If taken seriously, it meant a deep
conspiracy was afoot involving high level
government and military plotters, not little
Lee Harvey who was sorting textbooks in the
Texas School Book Depository for $1.25 an
hour.
In order to preserve the Warren Commission
myth that a single, lone assassin shot the
President required—absolutely and
irrevocably—that such news be hidden,
covered up, and sequestered from any public
awareness—and indeed it was. Frankly, it is
a miracle these files survived at all
considering their significance.
A very belated thanks and a few hosannas
from the American people, Eugene and David,
wherever you may be.
