Looks like a must-see

May seem off the topic but I thought of Marilyn Monroe and Diana Spencer and in the latter case, a number of people close to her; not to mention although unrelated a curious number of microbiologists over the years.. And of course the suicides, some of which were truly grotesque, like the scientist who slashed one wrist and died of a slow bleed, (added 13 hours later: Or Gary Webb, who shot himself twice in the head, or the crime researcher found dismembered by a chainsaw in his motel bathroom and THAT, was ruled a suicide) or the guy (associated with Diana) who dowsed himself in gasoline, locked himself in his car and set himself on fire? Yeah, right.

The Intelligence Agencies et al, have a real fondness for "The Italian Solution" ...

thank you. something we will never get to see on the regular TV.. I am so glad you name Hammerskjold. Read his diary several times, must have been a truly remarkable man. I read that they thought he would be a straw puppet like so many others and miscounted badly, and then he was 'suicided'. The murders that have been committed - awful, and no one stood trial.

When movies such as this one, and "Sound of Freedom" are allowed to be screened on Apple TV and mainstream movie theatres, I have to wonder what's going on. Are these documentaries all part of some normalization process?

I am glad to see that this is made by Press and the Public and directed by John Kirby. The series of interviews ("Perspectives on the Pandemic") put together by P and P (in which you, Mark, feature in the superb pieces on propaganda) are some of the best early investigations of Covid-1984.

Note that the culprits are the same bunch that assassinated Presidents Abraham Lincoln, James Garfield, William McKinley and tried to assassinate Andrew Jackson. Maybe Ronald Reagan also. Likely also the 4 national leaders who opposed the Covid charade. Undoubtedly many others. They own the CIA and FBI.

Thank you Mark for sharing this. 🙏

Do you now if it's just available in the U.S.? I have spent the last hour or more going around in circles trying to purchase it to watch on Apple TV to no avail. I am in the UK and was really looking forward to watching it.

Best documentary on the wherefores and whys of the assassinations and the Covid war (against us) and the Climate Change Energy war (also against us):

Socrates would be banned if he was alive today. Still, as we celebrate Thanksgiving, I'm thankful the Socratic Method did spread for a couple thousand years.

congratulations on being a part of this project, Mark...I met Dick Gregory and Mort Sahl many yrs ago...Gregory came to Brandeis U, I think it was around 1980, he was invited to come and speak to a group of students and faculty, and when it was over I was one of the students who went for a walk with him afterwards...I was surprised that he was invited and that he came, but he said he would talk to anyone who would listen, it was a real privilege to have met him, my dad was a huge fan of his comedy and everything else...I met Sahl at the Westwood Village Farmers Market around 1999 or 2000, his son was playing there with a jazz band. I watched him for a while and saw that I was the only person who recognized him. Being in LA, and because of my employment with the Musician's Union and other things I was used to meeting famous people and knew to treat them like everyone else, politely but not like a crazed fan. I went up to him, he was sitting on a chair and had a couple of people with him...I introduced myself, and shook his hand, and thanked him for his standup comedy, and for all he did to try and tell the truth about President Kennedy's assassination. He thanked me and I saw he wasn't interested in having a conversation so I went back to where my husband was standing. One of my favourite things he did was to use a blackboard to map out his ideas and description of US politics like a college professor. Merv Griffin used to have him on often and gave him a lot of time on his talk show. At some point the whole thing about JFK gave him a nervous breakdown and he turned up in Wash DC with a talk radio show and praising Reagan and Alexander Haig his new buddies. I'd like to think he was spying on the enemy but now we now they were all the enemy. It was quite a shock to see him on Carson telling stories like Haig was a funny guy to hang out with. I remember when Reagan was shot and Haig thought he was in charge, but GHW Bush was the VP so he was next in line. Haig tried to jump the gun pun intended.

Meanwhile 60 f'ing yrs and are we any closer to the world knowing who did it and why.

I signed up for Apple TV thinking I could watch this. Nope, they make you rent or buy the show and watch it through itunes. I'm having some problem with my Apple ID so I can't buy the film. Oh well. Made it way too complicated.

Jacqueline Bouvier is painted as the suffering widow by the mass media. But what the mass media fails to inform is that she was in fact employed by the CIA herself, prior to her marriage to JFK. She knew Allen Dulles personally and "pestered" him for the job (find a copy of Alice Kaplan's book "Dreaming in French" (2012) and/or search within it via Google Books).

If one is seeded with the idea that a sniper is shooting JFK in the Zapruder video, one accepts that explanation, generally without question. But if the public had instead been seeded with the idea that the Zapruder video shows Jacqeline shooting JFK it would have been accepted as well. Seeding a false narrative is characteristic of CIA operations because it very effective and powerful (Covid-19, 9/11, AIDS, etc.).

As Jackie well-understood: "People like to believe in fairytales."

I bought it today (first release: The Prologue) on YouTube. So very pleased that the story of these four are brought together to discover and compare their lives, shedding light on their deaths. I always thought it strange that historians/journalists have seemed quite disinterested and mute about the whys, that these four assassinations occurred in such close time proximity? Anyway, have read literally dozens of JFK assassination books over the years - so pleased this series has been created. The Prologue was great, thank you so much. Looking forward to the rest of the installments.
