Judyth Vary Baker’s groundbreaking book Me & Lee has
cast into a whole new light the activities in New Orleans anticipating the
murder of President John Kennedy in Dallas, TX. These new
revelations reconstitute the work of Jim Garrison and make entirely plain the
conspiracy of the CIA and its clients in the summer of 1963.
New Orleans was host of 3 major activities – the development
and testing of a cancer bioweapon to murder Fidel Castro, the frame-up of Lee
Oswald as pro Castro and pro Communist agitator, and the training of the Alpha
66 and other Cuban anti Castro expatriates who would be involved in the
assassination of the president in and around Dealey Plaza.
Dr Alton Ochsner, Dr Mary Sherman, and David Ferrie feverishly engaged in the development of an injectible cancer virus under the
umbrella of Tulane University where Sherman worked, and Ochsner’s research
center at Charity Hospital. The majority of the research was conducted underground in Ferrie’s and
Sherman’s apartments with additional support provided by Eli Lilly.
The ostensible goal of the research was to create a cancer
weapon to kill Fidel Castro for the purpose of relieving pressure on Kennedy
who had earned the enmity of a growing cabal of revolutionaries in New York and Texas.
Sherman, Ferrie, and Oswald were led to believe by their CIA handlers that
killing Castro would throw a bone to the plutocrats and government elements, thus
mollifying them in their rages against Kennedy whose many sins against them
were mounting daily.
This team, augmented by a 20 year old Judyth Vary Baker from
Florida, maintained a grueling schedule to produce the virus before September. Oswald and Baker
worked undercover through the J Reilly Coffee Company to shield their
stealth work. Ochsner provided the funding, organization, and high level
management to keep the project on track, reporting progress regularly to his CIA
supervisors.
When the virus was completed, Oswald accompanied Ferrie and
Clay Shaw to Jackson, LA to administer the virus to prisoners from the Angola
State Prison at the East Louisiana Mental Health Hospital. A follow up trip by
Oswald and Baker retrieved evidence showing that the virus was eminently successful.
The CIA assigned Shaw to supervise Oswald's and Ferrie’s work
at the hospital.
These test results completed the first major phase of the
CIA’s work in New Orleans. Meanwhile, the agency had assigned Oswald to create
a pro Castro persona so that he could go to Mexico City to apply for a visa
into Cuba to smuggle the virus. At the very least, he would hand off the goods
to another agent in Mexico City.
Before going to Mexico in September, Oswald felt that he was
being framed for a murder, but was too enmeshed in the plots to extricate himself. The
proof of his suspicions came when the hand off man failed to appear.
The important point is that there was no Oswald double in
Mexico City as many researchers - including ourselves - have alleged. Oswald indeed went to Mexico City.
The other major point is that the CIA had no intention of killing Castro. It
simply wanted a bioweapon for other purposes and to deceive the cancer team
about the objective of their work.
The CIA’s real intention was to kill Kennedy, a task which
required well trained assassins and reliable operatives in Dealey Plaza. Alpha 66
and other violent mercenaries trained near Lake Pontchartrain with equipment provided
through Clay Shaw whose position as head of the CIA’s International Trade Mart
gave him the perfect perch from which to smuggle weapons into New Orleans.
Baker unwittingly provided the technique for camouflaging the arms. Carlos Marcello’s mafia transported the
weapons to the Army / CIA mercenaries who were led by none other than George Bush Sr.
Once the New Orleans operation was complete, Oswald was
reassigned to Dallas where his handler David Atlee Phillips turned him over to
CIA operatives Ruth and Michael Paine and George DeMohrenschildt to handle the
dirty details of directing Oswald to his demise. The cancer bioweapon would later
be used on Jack Ruby while awaiting appeal of his death sentence for the murder
of Oswald.
Oswald knew that the president was targeted for murder and
worked as best he could to thwart the assassins who, in the end, handily
prevailed.
