![]() There are probably a third of these you can dispense with because they are just too far removed from the Kennedy assassination to be credible. Many of them are just as disturbing as they first appeared to me many years ago. Belzer has taken that list, and expanded the histories of these various deaths. Years ago, in what was probably the first Kennedy assassination book that I ever read, They've Killed the President, I remember being freaked out by one chapter devoted to "Strange Deaths." Hangings, shootings, convenient illnesses, and one karate chop to the neck of reporter stepping out of a shower. If you read the book with an open mind, it will be hard for you to escape the same conclusion. They seem to be warning anyone who will listen that the USA is in danger of becoming a neo-fascist state run by the military-industrial complex. I would have preferred a thicker book with a fleshed-out narrative and less reliance on the footnotes.Įven allowing for the inevitable witness deaths resulting from natural causes, the authors make a very strong case for the existence of a group of conspirators being involved in the JFK assassination. This tends to break the flow of thought from the text. ![]() They are trying to impart a lot of information here, so they provide what essentially is a condensed version of events with reference to source materials in the footnotes. The book was interesting enough, but presented in a familiar,conversational (almost hectoring) point form style which had a tendency to become repetitive. Having said that, let me now declare that if only half of the details presented as fact in this book can be borne out, one can only conclude that some very sinister forces conspired to do away with a popular president and then commenced to tidy up loose ends by way of a series of murders.īelzer and Wayne present some convincing arguments to support their conspiracy theories. It is only natural that with the passing of time everyone associated with Kennedy's demise will go the way of the dodo as well. After all, everyone associated with the assassination of Lincoln is now dead, and some of them prematurely and forcefully. It's hard to tell how much credence one can assign to a book that claims that a large number of people who had inside knowledge of a particular historical event died early under suspicious circumstances. The impeccable research and writing of Richard Belzer and David Wayne show that if the government is trying to hide anything, they’re the duo who will uncover it. ![]() The findings were absolutely staggering as some cases were clearly linked to a “clean-up operation” after the murder of President Kennedy, while others were the result of ‘other forces’. Hit List is a fair examination of the evidence of each case, leading to (necessarily) different conclusions. Others clearly seemed noteworthy witnesses who did seem to know something and did seem to die mysteriously. Some of the deaths seemed purely coincidental heart attacks, hunting accidents. Then someone comes along later and figures out what the odds of it happening were. After all, events don’t “consult the odds” prior to happening they simply happen. ![]() Like most people, Richard and David were initially unsure about what to make of these ‘coincidences’. ![]() For decades, government pundits have dismissed these “coincidental” deaths, even regarding them as “myths” as “urban legends.” Richard Belzer and David Wayne are back to set the record straight after Dead Wrong this time they’re going to uncover the truth about the many witness deaths tied to the JFK assassination. ![]()
