It's a pity that you can't call up a docid number under a search in these archives but have to search one after the other till you find what you're looking for eg.docid-32170661 ;where Theodore Lee who thought there was a prior conection between Lee Oswald and the Dallas policeman Tippit whom Oswald reportedly murdered.

It is all very interesting and I for one will certainly give it my best shot. I've always believed there was much more to it. I've also often wondered having been to the site many times, how Oswald could have carried out the shooting from the School Book Depository, or how he was the only shooter as I've never believed he was, although he was a very good shooter which has never been in doubt.

We all know that the most interesting parts of these documents will be redacted, so we'll never get to see what is there in its entirety. But, who knows we may eventually see it all, I'm just one of life's sceptics.
One of the things I've found of interest is that a reporter on the Cambridge Evening News right here in Britain received an anonymous call telling him to ring the US embassy for some big news, and that he alone should call the Embassy and not someone else. MI-5, placed this call to have been 25 minutes before the assassination took place. To my knowledge the Reporter has never been publicly named. I would assume, however, that he is known to the powers that be.
I must admit I'm looking forward to the release of more documents. I've never been totally convinced that Lee Harvey Oswald was the lone gun, although he was definitely a marksman and could have shot the President from the School Book Depository.
I've lived and worked in Dallas, so I am very familiar with the area where the shooting took place, and some of the crowd sitting on the Grassy Knoll that day heard shots from behind them. I think many believe Oswald was not the only shooter that day.

https://www.archives.gov/research/jfk/2017-release [/quote JFK believed in equal rights for everyone. I believe it was the KKK who killed him. They hated Kennedy and his polices. The KKK who i believe many of whom had Scottish connections disliked not only black people also disliked Catholics. Kennedy being a catholic says it all. That,s my opinion however will we ever know the truth? I doubt it. Kennedy to me was a great inspiration to me throughout my life and so to his brother Bobby
... I believe ... Kennedy being a catholic says it all. That,s my opinion...
I said something to that effect many years ago in answer to to some one who on here (I think it was the member "Boots") asked me if I really thought that. I was on my way with a friend to Dollar (Fife?) when the news came over our "tranny" as we travelled on the late night bus and said more or less that to my mate. I still think it's a probability.
