Interesting News on David Atlee Phillips from Larry Hancock

Going Forward

Some recent dialog on the Education Forum, in regard to the long standing issue of David Phillips possible use of the alias Maurice Bishop, prompted me to comment on something that I think has been overlooked to a great extent.  In all of the study and writings (which seem to be culminating in literal explosion of books on the 50th anniversary) it seems to me that very few folks have paid much attention to the post-assassination lives of many of the probable suspects in the assassination of President Kennedy.  And for that matter, the context of the people discussed usually seems to run no more than a couple of years before the assassination.  I tried to address the issue in Someone Would Have Talked in a chapter titled “Afterwards”.  For whatever reason it seemed to get little discussion and while I was hoping others would really dig into that subject, nobody really did.   Personally I think it would make a great research project to profile anyone’s personal set of primary suspects, state their role in the assassination and then examine what happened to them after participating in one of the most visible crimes of the century.  Did they profit, did they run, did they duck and cover?  Seems like the next step to me but what I see instead is the same topics being recycled over and over again.  And it would be some new ground, something to really keep some meaningful research going after the 50th.

Just as one example of such an exercise, one of the more popular scenarios seems to be that the military industrial complex, in alliance with LBJ, killed JFK and then LBJ cheerfully gave them the war in SE Asia that they had been wanting.   OK, the thing would be to take that scenario forward, how did each of the Chiefs fair, what role did they play in Nam, did Johnson give them what they wanted – and since they obviously would have had some leverage over him, how did he treat them.  As a starting point in that study, I would recommend the book Dereliction of Duty by H.R. McMaster, which specifically focuses on Viet Nam and the relationships between Johnson, McNamara and the Joint Chiefs.  Then dig into some of the early meetings between Johnson and the Chiefs, see hour their careers went after he took over the presidency and see how it plays.

As for myself, one of the things I do in Shadow Warfare is to trace the careers of several of the shadow warriors discussed in SWHT on through at least a couple of more decades. While Shadow Warfare is about a much broader subject, it certainly gives an extended treatment of what people like Dave Phillips and David Morales went on to do after 1963.  As an example, it becomes reasonably clear that David Phillips continued to pursue his own anti-communist agenda with side actions even after he moved far up the management ladder at the CIA.  It is highly unlikely that he was sanctioned to  use Veciana and Luis Posada in a series of Castro assassination plots in Latin America, but almost certain that he did so.

Enough of that though, my point was to surface some context for something new in post-50th anniversary JFK research.  The catch phrase about “follow the money” gets thrown about a lot, as a complement I suggest “following the suspects”.

– and yes, I’m still in edit mode and will be for three or four more weeks,  Larry

More People Giving Pets Human Names

Rover is so overTraditional pet names like Fido and Rover have been replaced by popular baby names, according to report by John Lewis Pet Insurance.

The study of more than 50,000 pet names found that the top 10 pet names also appear among the 70 most popular baby names in England and Wales.

The most popular name for both cats and dogs was Poppy, which is also the 13th most popular name for baby girls in the United Kingdom. The name is also on the rise in the U.S. - a trend baby name experts attribute to the Duchess of Cambridge's sister.

The decline of traditional pet names is demonstrated by the fate of Rover and Fido, which were both in the top 10 in the 1970s but have dropped to 840 and 1,480 respectively.

Animal insurance company Petplan says this decrease in popularity suggests that owners regard their children as part of the family.

But those four-legged family members aren't getting just any names - many of them are inspired by children's books and television shows.

 Popular names for dogs include Dora from Dora "The Explorer," Woody from "Toy Story," Winnie from "Winnie The Pooh" and Minnie from Disney's Minnie Mouse.

Harry Potter-inspired pet names are especially popular. The best-selling book series has given names to both cats and dogs, with top names being Harry, Luna, Dumbledore, Fleur Delacour, Draco, Lupin, Severus and Dudley.

Anderson Cooper: Trying to take over the world or what...

Well, it seems fairly obvious at this point....

There have been hints all along....and if you think about it the best place to begin is the airwaves.

Seriously, what is first step when you are trying to take over the world....take over the major media outlets and control the news and the airwaves.

It's clear at this point this has been a goal all along.

First--CNN:  Do the listeners realize these initials stand for Cooper News Network?  It was changed when Anderson purchased the channel from Ted Turner.....most viewers don't realize that not only is Anderson Cooper the major news anchor--he is on several times a day--but he is also the owner of the place.  This is not widely known in media circles as it has been kept under wraps for a very long time.

This new man at CNN--Jeff Zucker--he is basically a front for Anderson.  Cooper calls the shots 24/7.   Its confusing but Cooper is paying Zucker a fortune to act serious while he sits around and giggles and stutters.  It's easy to see how everyone is thrown-off but it is part of the plot for world power.

The other question many have asked:  How many Anderson Coopers actually exist.  It is suggested now that since he is on so many times a day and on so many networks not all of those can actually be Anderson.

The issue of the Anderson Cooper Clone.........

Anderson on CNN...Anderson on 60 Minutes,  Anderson on that other talk show......Are all of those people really Cooper.  The rumors have swirled for a long time, now.......

Who is the real Anderson Cooper.....how many are there.....Is he real.....(the luminescent quality of his hair and skin have often raised eyebrows).....and is there a possible alien connection.......

Is there any truth to the rumor that Piers Morgan was secretly sent from the UK to take over CNN as a British network and foothold in the states......

Is it true that CNN has fallen on hard times and is up for grabs from other countries and other astral systems.....hence the rumor that some have seen fisticuffs between AC and Piers in the special anchor coffee room but refuse to report in fear that they will be nixed by the new network chiefs......

And what about the reports of multiple AC's spotted at the exact same moment in time by multiple members of the media.......

Has George Strombo been banished from the network because not only is he a good interviewer and good looking but the real reason is that he has a tan and Anderson Cooper and Piers Morgan are insanely jealous....(does Wolf have a tan.....think about it)

To be continued.......

some have whispered that there is an  intergalactic figure  with an incredibly stong hold on certain individuals

Chobani Pineapple Yogurt and Food Safety.......

Just wanted to tell everyone a little bit about Chobani Yogurt and food safety..

A very pleasant experience…..that would be calling Chobani Yogurt--the number on the container--and speaking with Jennifer in Customer Loyalty at the Norwich Office in New York.

Chobani--about the best yogurt in the San Diego area and at a reasonable price--is always excellent quality, texture, flavor--never faltering.

This time the yogurt must have been sitting in my frig afor about 2 weeks.  The foil top was elevated and a little of the contents was scouching out.

The expiration date was in the next month--Sept--but still a week away.

After opening the container--it looked fine--it seemed like a good idea to call the company, just in case……...

Jennifer was very interested in what I had to say .  She asked for information, my name and address and the information listed on the foil top of the container.  She asked for the serial number, as well.  They wanted to know everything about it--Jennifer took her time and was not in a rush.

She told me to definitely throw the yogurt away and not eat it as this was a very unusual occurance.

Chobani will be sending me a refund check in the mail.

This information seemed important to tell everyone if they are experiencing any issues with their yogurt and the friendliness and attention from Chobani was inspirational--well, compared to some companies that are almost impossible to get a hold of in tech support and that kind of thing…….phones……..

Wanted to also mention--the wait time was approximately 5 minutes and Jennifer was very concerned with the labeling information and my safety.

The Pineapple Yogurt actually looked fine after it was opened but there was a very faint smell similar to yeast--as if one was preparing to bake bread.

Theank you Jenifer and Chobani Yogurt for your kind interest in what I had to say, your prompt attention to detail and my refund
