\Y'all wanna clarify that remark.  Last time I checked, we don't go around 
\killing witnesses to crimes.  Just a few days ago, we had a big TV special
\on JFK's murder and it was chock full of witnesses.

Yeah? Just a week ago we had a big TV special AND a 1973 thriller*), which
stated that FIVE**) months after the murder of JFK EIGHTEEN witnesses were
DEAD: at least TEN had been MURDERED, a few had had `accidents', a few had
`committed suicide', and ONE had died by natural cause.
I think your nice FBI was just cleaning things up...

*	- I'll follow up again to provide the title of this movie.
**	- I'm not totally sure of this number, but in any case it was
	  absurdly low.

The title is `Executive Action' by David Miller, starring Burt Lancaster,
Robert Ryan, Will Geer, Gilbert Green and John Anderson. It's based on the
theory by some Mark Lane: the killers (plural!) have been hired by influential
right wing people, who considered (the policy of) JFK a `threat to the USA':

	- (nuclear) disarmament
	- `giving away' Indo-China to the communists
	- equal rights for the negro population

Lee Harvey Oswald was just a patsy, `nicely' framed by a look-alike (the actor
playing this role resembled Oswald remarkably well!). Remember Oswald's words:
"I'm just a patsy."
Anyway, the big TV documentary I mentioned above, made very clear that a lot
of evidence has `disappeared' or been twisted to let the Warren-committee get
away with the conclusion Oswald did it all. Oswald did it all? Get real!
