On the Trail of the Assassins

Book excerpt: Jim Garrison's book presents the most powerful detailed case yet made that President Kennedy's assassination was the product of a conspiracy, and that the plotters and key operators came not from the Mob, but the CIA. I think there was a conspiracy. There's kind of collective amnesia about the whole thing. The Warren Commission construed its mission to be restoring equilibrium. No one really wanted to know. It goes back to the late sixties, the Garrison case. Remember he had this elaborate conspiracy theory? The stones that were turned over! Fantastic characters kept emerging.
