From the January-February, 1997 issue (Vol. 4 No. 2) |
Slowly but surely, the unexpurgated version of the HSCA’s Mexico City Report (commonly known as the Lopez Report) is coming to fruition. Lisa Pease analyzes major parts of the latest version released by the ARRB in our cover story. Lisa’s article also features direct quotes made by Edwin Lopez Soto over the years on the writing of the report and his experience with Blakey’s House Select Committee. She also compares Blakey’s willingness to give over control with Pike’s desire for indendepence from the intelligence agencies of their respective investigations. We also offer this new version of this long report for your own inspection in our catalog. On another JFK front, Carol Hewett completes her two part investigation of the mystery of the Minox camera. Was it Michael Paine’s or was it Oswald’s? Were there two? And if so why? These are all questions for the Review Board to pose to the Paines in deposition. Carol has done much of the background work for them.
Speaking of the Review Board, Probe has collected some remarks made for the record by three of the five members of that body. We examine some of these for the reader and alert you to their significance. In an adjunct to Lisa Pease’s “Who’s Running the Country?” theme, we bring you up to date on CIA battles with two brave whistleblowers and show how the legacy of cover-up continues today with both the Gulf War and the Harbury case.
Who’s running the country? Certainly not the left. We focus on that theme in excerpts from an interesting, unique new book on the Kennedy case in our centerfold section. This is a double treat for our readers since it introduces them to both Martin Schotz and Ray Marcus, two fine writers and keen analysts on the case. We instruct our readers how to get this new book and also how to get the most recent work of Marcus.
Dave Manning continues his extraordinary and exclusive reports on the recently concluded Scott Enyart lawsuit for Probe. Dave details here the key testimony that turned the tide for Scott, and brings you up to date on the latest post-trial motions. Once you read his piece, you’ll understand why the media didn’t cover the trial. The media did pay a lot of attention to Gary Webb’s CIA/Crack story which we reported in our last issue. Too bad most of the coverage was wildly slanted and dishonest. We try to explain why. Surprisingly, there was some coverage of the latest developments in the Martin Luther King case. Unfortunately it came when James Earl Ray was near death. But if he makes it through there may be some new hearings on his case in late February. As Lisa does here, we’ll try and keep you informed on both Ray’s health and that status of his case. Finally, our good fortune with cartoonists continues. To join Martin Cannon, and Richard Bartholomew, we now welcome Travis Kelly who dramatizes David Belin’s “Final Disclosure”. We hope he does the same for Gerald Posner.
