said, oh, he was quite good. when asked why he said that, i knew him . to suggest that this man, lee harvey oswald, was a danger. another cliff hanger, whether oswald worked for the cia. richard helms, deputy cia director under kennedy was asked if lee harvey on oswald was a cia agent where the document suddenly ends without an answer. even linden b. johnson is said to have explained another theory. according to helms, johnson claimed he was killed as payback for the assassination of vietnam s president and this was just justice. even though helms said there was no evidence of this claim in agency records. but a memo from fbi direct j. edgar hoover to the white house three years after kennedy was killed details reaction inside the soviet union, including
conspiracy theories of their own. namely, that johnson himself was behind kennedy s death. the source saying ussr believed there was well-organized conspiracy on the part of the ultra right in the united states to affect a cou approximate. they received a direct warning before oswald s own murder before a jail transfer. a day before oswald was killed, hoover says the fbi office in dallas received a phone call from a man talking in a calm voice and saying he was a member of a committee organized to kill oswald and shared that information with the dallas police chief who assured us adequate protection would be given. however, this was not done. oswald s killer, jack ruby, maintained he acted alone and denied making the call. and more may be coming. a white house official telling cnn the president was unhappy with the level of redactions
they don t only want to find out what happened, they want to contain the damage. here s another intriguing part that julian had first referred to. that is somehow the fbi knew oswald would be killed. here is the excerpt from j. edgar hoover. there is nothing further on the oswald case except that he is dead. we received a call in our dallas office from a man talking in a calm voice and saying he was a member of a committee on organized to kill oswald. what s your thinking behind that one? that to me is the most important document to come to light so far. one thing that becomes abundantly clear, we remind ourselves that the fbi and cia didn t collaborate together very well, for starters. you know, neither did navy and army in the 1950s, by the way. but it comes shining through these documents. in this case, hoover comes out to be kind of the interesting good guy, oddly.
you have never said that about j. edgar hoover before. he is perplexed about what happened in dallas. they had warning. they told dallas police that he seems to not know particularly with the killing of ruby how that could possibly happen. and so, again, it creates i think more suspicions, these new documents, about cia than it does the fbi. guys, there s a lot that wasn t released, though there was a lot that was released. some of the things we have not yet received, a huge file. 338-page file in dallas. why does that matter? he was in charge of dallas. just what you were talking about right there. so much went on around that assassination. there is a dossier on on awe dallas man who met ruby before ruby killed oswald. files on anti-castro cuban exiles. secret is service destroyed 1963
for decades, conspiracy theories have questioned whether lee harvey oswald acted alone in killing john f. kennedy in dallas 54 years ago. in a newly released memo, j. edgar hoover suppressed concern they wouldn t believe he was the lone gunman. the thing i m concerned about is that mr. catsen back and having something issued so we can convince the public that oswald is the real assassin. one document reveals the cia intercepted a call on oswald made to a kgb officer at the russian embassy in moscow less than two months before oswald shot kennedy. oswald spoken in broken russia. and documenting a separate conversation about oswald and two cubans. one said oswald must have been a good shot. a cuban intelligence officer
