[00:00:11] Among the declassified documents, a memorandum stands out, in which
[00:00:15] Gerry Underhill, a CIA informant,
[00:00:18] is mentioned. He claimed to know the truth about
[00:00:21] what happened. Previously, only the title page was
[00:00:24] known, but now the entire document can be read. The
[00:00:28] day after Kennedy's assassination, Underhill hastily left
[00:00:31] Washington late at night and appeared at his friends' house in
[00:00:35] New Jersey. He was agitated and confessed to his
[00:00:38] friend Charlene Fitt Simmons that the assassination of the thirty-
[00:00:41] fifth president of the United States was the work of conspirators from
[00:00:45] the CIA. Oswald is a scapegoat. He was framed.
[00:00:49] This is too much. These villains committed a terrible crime.
[00:00:53] They killed the president. I heard heard different
[00:00:56] things. I couldn't believe they could do it, but they...
[00:01:00] did. Underhill claimed to know everyone
[00:01:03] by name and feared for his own safety.
[00:01:06] It turned out, not without reason. Just a few months later,
[00:01:10] on May 8, 1964,
[00:01:13] Underhill was found dead in his apartment in
[00:01:16] Washington with a gunshot wound to the head. The police
[00:01:20] considered it suicide. Oswald
[00:01:23] or secret government snipers or or the Italian
[00:01:26] mafia hired by the CIA or the FBI. In general,
[00:01:30] the topic they have there is also for those who like to argue,
[00:01:34] it's purely populist, in general, it doesn't solve
[00:01:37] anything today, of course, but because they
[00:01:41] published these documents, among these
[00:01:45] documents there was a lot of other stuff published,
[00:01:48] describing other
[00:01:51] crimes of American intelligence agencies, in general,
[00:01:55] all sorts of poisoned sugar and a lot of other things,
[00:01:58] in general, that is, they slipped in facts there about the preparation
[00:02:02] of coups. The case of President Kennedy's assassination
[00:02:05] always had many white spots. Suffice it to
[00:02:08] remember that a certain anonymous person reported the impending assassination to
[00:02:12] the Cambridge News newspaper 25 minutes before
[00:02:15] the shots were fired. Special services and deep
[00:02:18] states are also not always 100% effective. With John Kennedy
[00:02:22] it worked out, with Trump it didn't, and accordingly, this aberration
[00:02:25] happened again. And if Biden had a second term, again, the ideal of
[00:02:29] the deep state.
[00:02:37] doesn't understand what he's doing, an absolute ideal, John Kennedy, again,
[00:02:40] a representative of the Democratic Party or Trump, who represents
[00:02:44] the Republican Party, such presidents are inconvenient, such
[00:02:48] presidents create a huge number of problems, too many
[00:02:52] in the deep state, in the intelligence services believe
[00:02:56] that it is better to even harshly and publicly eliminate this problem.
[00:03:15] Statements that political opponents will try to eliminate Donald Trump were also made repeatedly, even
[00:03:18] before the assassination attempts on the businessman, including
[00:03:21] from the lips of independent American journalist
[00:03:24] Tucker Carlson. He believed that the intensity of the election
[00:03:27] campaign was so high that...
[00:05:00] show, all three held right-wing anti-communist
[00:05:03] views and opposed the activities of the Democratic
[00:05:07] Party of the USA. These stories about conspiracy theories, they
[00:05:10] actually were invented by
[00:05:14] the American special services themselves. When the truth about their activities began to come
[00:05:18] out, they declared all of it a conspiracy theory,
[00:05:21] ordered many pseudo-investigations
[00:05:24] obsessed precisely with conspiracy theory, Masons, alien
[00:05:27] interference, well, they stuffed a lot of nonsense according to the principle,
[00:05:31] where is the best place to hide a tree in the forest, so they planted a forest
[00:06:13] elections of deputies of the State
[00:06:15] Duma, clash of economies
[00:06:19] of political systems, a series of Napoleonic wars began, China
[00:06:23] plunged into chaos, there were completely paranoid people,
[00:06:27] the local population did not resist, the British
[00:06:30] will create the first concentration camps, the struggle
[00:06:33] of ideologies and the confrontation
[00:06:36] of worldviews, they were in no hurry to intervene, led to the impoverishment
[00:06:40] of a significant part of the population.

[00:11:22] Ferry and Clay claimed that they had never heard
[00:11:26] of Oswald before, but the investigation managed to prove that they were
[00:11:29] acquainted. Here in this photo is David Ferry, second from the left,
[00:11:33] Lee Harvey Oswald on the far right. They served
[00:11:36] together in the Civil Air Patrol. In
[00:11:39] 1961, Ferry spoke before
[00:11:42] veterans in New Orleans with harsh criticism of Kennedy's
[00:11:45] policy towards Cuba and uttered the phrase:
[00:11:49] "The president should be shot," after
[00:11:52] which he was even removed from the podium. And upon Oswald's
[00:11:56] arrest, a library card in the name of David
[00:11:59] Ferry was found in his pocket. Oswald was a very convenient figure
[00:12:03] to pin all the blame on and make a scapegoat. In
[00:12:07] this man's history, as we know, service in the Marine
[00:12:09] Corps, for some time he lived in the territory
[00:12:13] of the Soviet Union, and most importantly, he had a wife
[00:12:16] from the Soviet Union, a Russian. Well,
[00:12:19] the ideal candidate to kill the president
[00:12:23] of the United States of America. One of the youngest,
[00:12:26] most ambitious, beloved by the people. Who is behind it? Well,
[00:12:30] of course, the bloody KGB, which recruited him, trained him, and
[00:12:33] carried out this political, shall we say, adventure.
[00:12:37] Bannister died in 1964
[00:12:40] from a brain hemorrhage. And on February 22,
[00:12:43] 1967, after the results of
[00:12:47] the investigation appeared in the press, Ferry also died suddenly.
[00:12:51] He left behind two notes, similar to those
[00:12:55] written by suicides. Here is an excerpt from the text: "For me,
[00:12:58] leaving life is a pleasant prospect." However, the forensic
[00:13:02] medical examination immediately issued a conclusion that the cause of death
[00:13:06] was a brain hemorrhage. Exactly the same as in
[00:13:10] Bannister, who died three years earlier. Lee Harvey Oswald,
[00:13:13] yes, who was the official culprit, he was killed a few days later.
[00:13:17] Many figures who, one way or another,
[00:13:20] according to the main version, or a side version, were involved, back in the sixties,
[00:13:24] decided that it was
[00:13:27] not worth staying in
[00:13:31] this topic any longer and it was better to get out of this topic, unfortunately,
[00:13:35] for many this turned out to be the extreme
[00:13:38] option, that is, getting out means
[00:13:40] precisely what we just said. On March
[00:13:44] 1, 1967, Garrison arrested
[00:13:48] the last surviving defendant, Clay Shaw, and
[00:13:51] charged him with conspiracy to assassinate Kennedy. This
[00:13:55] was the only person who could be brought to trial in the case
[00:13:59] of the assassination attempt on the thirty-fifth president of the United States. By
[00:14:03] that time, by a strange coincidence, almost all
[00:14:06] the witnesses whom Garrison would have liked to involve were already
[00:14:10] dead. Garrison was one of the few people who, in
[00:14:13] general, went against the mainstream, actually
[00:14:16] trying to break the scenario
[00:14:19] that was initially prescribed by people who, in general, actually planned
[00:14:23] and were behind the assassination of John Kennedy, he tried
[00:14:27] to play his own game, but I repeat, he did not achieve
[00:14:30] success in this field, because the defendants in all his
[00:14:33] investigations either died mysteriously under unknown
[00:14:37] circumstances, or, like this person, were
[00:14:40] acquitted by a jury. On March 1,
[00:14:43] 1969, the jury found
[00:14:46] Shaw not guilty. The first and only trial in the Kennedy
[00:14:50] case ended with the prosecution
[00:14:53] losing.
[00:14:59] declassified, but not everything, approximately
[00:15:02] 20 percent, still remains under seven
[00:15:05] seals. The main thing in the investigation is not to accidentally stumble upon
[00:15:08] themselves. Appointing Allan
[00:15:11] Dulles, the former head of the CIA, to this commission is like,
[00:15:15] well, tasking a goat with investigating who ate
[00:15:19] the cabbage. Insurance or leverage over the CIA.
[00:15:22] Why does Trump need this scandal?
[00:15:35] The year is 1994.
[00:15:38] FBI agent Zachary Shelton, in his spare
[00:15:42] time, investigated the case of Kennedy's assassination. Well,
[00:15:46] that was his hobby, which is not
[00:15:49] surprising, in those days, everyone tried to solve the American
[00:15:52] mystery of the century. So, this Sheldon
[00:15:56] said that he talked to his friend, a private
[00:16:00] detective, Joe West, and he said that
[00:16:03] once in prison he talked to a gangster...
[00:17:45] it didn't sound like it, yes, a billionaire, whom even then people accused of being involved in this, a billionaire who repeatedly funded Johnson's political campaigns, who received the presidency after the death,
[00:17:49] well, the vice president, a person who was imposed on Kennedy as
[00:17:53] vice president, he is nowhere to be found, Hunt was nowhere
[00:17:56] to be found, but the Central Intelligence Agency is everywhere,
[00:17:59] all versions converge on the fact that
[00:18:03] the assassination of the thirty-fifth president is the result
[00:18:06] of a conspiracy by a group of individuals, possibly a special operation, not at
[00:18:10] all the action of a lone shooter, but why in
[00:18:13] the general array of declassified documents there are so
[00:18:16] many reports on other secret CIA operations,
[00:18:20] possibly to show that special services still have
[00:18:23] a connection to the Kennedy assassination, these people are trained,
[00:18:27] they know the methodology, they have resources,
[00:18:30] they have their own
[00:18:33] agendas, they have their own goals and objectives, they...
[00:19:08] For example, more than forty pages of secret protocols
[00:19:11] of meetings of the Foreign Intelligence Advisory Board to the US
[00:19:14] President contain information about surveillance of
[00:19:18] the creators of the nuclear program in China. And here is a report
[00:19:21] from the CIA Inspector General on the assassination of Dominican leader
[00:19:25] Rafael Trujillo with the names and surnames
[00:19:28] of the agents involved. The report even includes a photograph
[00:19:32] of the bullet-riddled car. Moreover, it follows
[00:19:35] from the documents that the top leadership of the USA was
[00:19:38] not aware of this operation in advance, as well as many
[00:19:41] others, aimed, among other things, against the Soviet
[00:19:44] Union. Information about American sabotage against
[00:19:48] the Soviet bloc was presented as sensational news. This included
[00:19:51] poisoning, in particular, agricultural products that
[00:19:55] were exported from Cuba to the Soviet
[00:19:58] Union, as well as to countries of the socialist camp there, and work on
[00:20:01] the GDR, they also mentioned this, but again, it's not
[00:20:04] to say that this is some kind of secret.
[00:20:07] Poland had several high-profile cases of such
[00:20:11] sabotage, the most high-profile was probably the outbreak of anthrax
[00:20:15] in 1979, I believe, in Sverdlovsk Oblast. The fact that
[00:20:18] it was sabotage has been established for a long time, because
[00:20:21] the source of the spread, a public transport stop
[00:20:24] near Sverdlovsk, well, somehow
[00:20:27] there is no American signature under it. The CIA
[00:20:31] planned and carried out most of its operations
[00:20:34] independently, though on behalf of the United States. But
[00:20:38] the state interest in many of the intelligence agency's
[00:20:41] plans is simply
[00:20:43] impossible to trace. In August
[00:20:47] 1962, the British merchant
[00:20:50] ship Statham Hill left
[00:20:53] Havana with a cargo of sugar on board,
[00:20:56] a total of 80 thousand
[00:20:59] bags with a total weight of more than 7.0 tons.
[00:21:02] The ship was going to the Soviet Union, to Odessa,
[00:21:06] but soon the ship developed
[00:21:09] malfunctions, and the captain decided to enter
[00:21:13] the nearest port for repairs. This was
[00:21:16] San Juan in Puerto Rico. For conducting.
[00:21:26] bags of sugar were moved into the building
[00:21:29] of the port warehouse, and so agents of the Central
[00:21:32] Intelligence Agency
[00:21:35] of the USA infiltrated it and added
[00:21:38] a certain substance to 800 bags, not poisonous, but giving the
[00:21:42] sugar a persistent bitter taste. The calculation was that
[00:21:46] upon arrival in the Soviet Union, the sugar would
[00:21:49] be reprocessed as a single batch,
[00:21:52] mixed with the spoiled
[00:21:55] bags, and thus all 700
[00:21:58] tons would be spoiled. All
[00:22:01] this information was contained in notes and reports that
[00:22:04] were personally brought to President Kennedy, and the more
[00:22:08] reports the President read, the stronger, obviously, grew his
[00:22:11] desire to reform the agency that was taking
[00:22:15] too much upon itself. A big question whether it would be possible or not
[00:22:19] to clear these Augean stables, the last
[00:22:21] time special services investigated was 50
[00:22:25] years ago, the Church Commission, in fact, found
[00:22:28] a huge number of abuses, now the documents on
[00:22:31] Kennedy have been declassified, again we see what the
[00:22:35] CIA was doing, not only directly in the context of Kennedy's assassination, but also
[00:22:38] what they were doing, for example, in the countries of the Warsaw Pact, where
[00:22:42] they directly undermined the economic potential of the Soviet
[00:22:45] Red Bloc that opposed the Americans, that is, they did not shy away from any
[00:22:49] means. In 1961,
[00:22:52] President Kennedy's assistant Arthur Schlesinger
[00:22:55] Jr. even prepared a special fifteen-page
[00:22:59] report called "The Reorganization
[00:23:02] of the CIA." It outlined facts of CIA actions
[00:23:05] which, in the official's opinion, undermined the authority
[00:23:08] of the US State Department, that is, discredited
[00:23:12] the American state. The report detailed
[00:23:15] the unsuccessful invasion of Cuba, better known as the Bay
[00:23:19] of Pigs landing. Schlesinger was concerned
[00:23:22] that when planning the operation, the agency did not even consult
[00:23:26] with any of the related agencies. Kennedy, of course, pursued
[00:23:30] a very radical policy of renewing
[00:23:33] and increasing the effectiveness of the intelligence
[00:23:36] agency. For example, he was one of the first to be concerned
[00:23:39] about the uncontrolled growth of foreign informants,
[00:23:43] CIA agents, who multiplied like
[00:23:46] cockroaches in various parts of the world. He was the first to raise the question.
[00:25:20] to put a spoke in his wheel, which means we need to attack him
[00:25:23] first, including by pointing out failures
[00:25:27] similar to those described in the Kennedy assassination archive.
[00:25:30] There's a Chuck Schumer, who represents
[00:25:34] the Intelligence Committee, who, in fact, on live
[00:25:37] television - MSNBC, it seems, said that Trump
[00:25:40] was wrong to quarrel with the special services, because they have 100-500
[00:25:44] ways, as it were, to respond to him very harshly,
[00:25:48] he said it directly. Yes, to the clarifying question of the host: "What do you
[00:25:52] mean?" He said: "Well, those
[00:25:55] who need to know will understand." Basically, it was a threat
[00:25:58] voiced live, to Trump: "Don't dare to go..."
[00:27:02] still fulfilled it,
[00:27:05] secondly, and this is the main thing,
[00:27:08] the declassified dossier is a powerful blow to
[00:27:11] Trump's secret and overt opponents in
[00:27:14] the special services, primarily in the Central Intelligence
[00:27:18] Agency of the USA. The published materials
[00:27:21] indicate how far special services
[00:27:24] can go and get out of control
[00:27:28] of federal authorities, moreover, putting their
[00:27:32] corporate interests
[00:27:35] above the interests of the state.
[00:27:38] By publishing the materials of the long-awaited dossier,
[00:27:41] Trump made another move in his confrontation with
[00:27:45] the American intelligence community. This fight promises
[00:27:49] to be merciless, from both
[00:28:22] His first official trip as the forty-seventh president of the United States
[00:28:26] was to the Middle East. The list of visits includes Saudi Arabia,
[00:28:30] Qatar, United Arab Emirates. A series of palaces with
[00:28:34] golden interiors, handshakes with Arab princes, and most importantly,
[00:28:38] everywhere promises of generous investments in the American
[00:28:41] economy, a record-breaking trip, boasts Donald
[00:28:45] Trump. In the next 10 years, they promise to invest
[00:28:48] more than 3 trillion dollars in US industry,
[00:28:52] he is about business, about money, about efficiency, but efficiency in his
[00:28:55] understanding, and state money, he, of course,
[00:28:58] perceives as money for his corporation, a corporation called
[00:29:02] the United States of America, therefore all his decisions are micro and
[00:29:06] macro deals. There was also an unofficial program with
[00:29:09] the participation of Trump's sons, who arrived with him as
[00:29:13] part of the American delegation.
[00:29:16] President Trump visited Saudi Arabia,
[00:29:19] Qatar and the United Arab Emirates in 4 days. His family is expanding
[00:29:23] business ties in the Middle East. The Trump
[00:29:26] Organization has plans for luxurious skyscrapers, golf courses,
[00:29:29] and cryptocurrency. Everyone says
[00:29:33] that the Trump family business has financial interests in all
[00:29:37] the Persian Gulf countries. Here's Eric Trump at a real estate
