Triangle of Death: The Shocking Truth About the Role of South Vietnam and the French Mafia in the Assassination of JFK

...enjoyed this book alot. sad what happened to JFK, but also shows the left was not a bunch of political virgins either. He made one to many enemies, and this book explains why. fast read too, considering the amount of backup material. so JFKs brain was never found huh? very strange indeed. read the book and find out another angle on who did what and why to "Camelot's King."

While I thought this book was worthwhile in many respects, especially with regard to the info. on Mertz/ Soetre, ULTIMATE SACRIFICE is simply the best book ever on the JFK assassination.Still, worth your time.

First: there is some misrepresentation from certain reviewers: Either they should spell it out properly or not spell it out at all. This book does not "just use the LBJ tapes". In fact, when I had heard that the tapes came out, I had wondered why the author(S) hadnt referenced them AT ALL. Second: the author(s) shows with extensive evidence that JFK wasnt the saintly liberal everyone made him out to be, and i am not talking about adultery, I am talking about his diplomacy and political alliances. Some of those alliances being the mafia. JFK stepped on one too many toes to get what he wanted. In the end he got his "pay-back". Plain & simple. Third: when the entire crime was reenacted, scientific evidence proved that rifle fire could have come from another location beside "lil ol ozzies" location...why does a certain negative reviewer not mention that point, as well as many others.BTW, when have Dan Rather & Peter Jennings become the purveyors of infallibility and truth? As if they CANT make mistakes...as if they dont look up to JFK as an idol of the liberal establishment. I even like some of JFK'S policies and his oratory skills were second to none. However, Dan & Petie are probably 2 of the most biased reporters the last century every heard from.Lastly, the then "Attorney General" RFK couldve gotten alot more evidence on his bro's death but decided to ignore/suppress it because it could further implicate the Kennedy's in organized crime. That is what a certain reviewer ignores about this well written book.I dont go for all the conspiracy out there, but this book convinced me "SOME" of it is true. Even BOTH PARTIES in Congress have stated that "organized crime was involved". Also "good ol ozzie" and ruby both worked for the mafia at one time or the other. so please dont mention that "good ol ozzie" pulled this off by himself.btw, when has the CIA become a GOP organization when the CIA was a creation of democratic presidencies? Truman signed the National Security Act of 1947 establishing the CIA. "The National Security Act charged the CIA with coordinating the nation's intelligence activities and correlating, evaluating and disseminating intelligence affecting national security." I think we need a CIA. any good idea can be abused. i can also admit that the GOP arent squeaky clean, but lets not paint the DEMS as "colorless". Personally i dont stay awake at night worrying about either political party or the CIA.this book was a fast and thorough read. read without the misconceptions of others...including mine.

This book reads almost like an updated (with new documentary references from January 2003) vindication and supplementation of Chomsky's "Rethinking Camelot" from the early '90s. Why don't the authors carry any reference to Chomsky? They might have been intimidated by the fact that the publisher which they submitted the book to (WorldNetDaily) is currently trying to sell a similar bag of lies for a Republican Administration in Iraq to that which the media had once packaged for Democratic Administrations in Vietnam. This fact alone may be enough to turn some prospective readers away, particularly those who have committed their lives to fantasizing that JFK wished to light candles and bring peace on earth. While the general hypocrisy and cynicism of WND's editors shouldn't require elaboration right here, suffice it to say that as a documentary on the facts surrounding Kennedy's imperial war-mongering and how this inter-laced with his assassination, the book is extremely concise. A single place where the authors smudge the meaning of a phrase is when they reference the "military-industrial complex theory" and then proceed to describe it as a theory that US generals and capitalists might actually wish to lose (or drag out) a "low-level" colonial war in a country like Vietnam. Actually, no such theory claims any such thing, although the assertion has been made that broader more nebulously defined "struggles" such as a "Cold War" or a "War on Terrorism" frequently are pushed in ways that make it impossible to respond to Stalin's March-April 1952 offer for German unification under international supervision with neutrality guaranteed. No one, however, would suggest that in passing from a nebulous "Cold War" ("War on Terrorism") to a specific colonial war in Vietnam (Iraq) that either generals or industrialist wish to lose. This false statement by the authors is, again, probably just a bone thrown to WND editors to help facilitate publication. With these qualifications, the book should be viewed as highly documented and focused overall. It centrally makes the point that the famed attempt by Kennedy to "withdraw from Vietnam" was a standard policy on the part of all US policy-makers with the only thing specific to Kennedy being the attempt to overthrow Diem. Chomsky made many of these points a decade ago, but now the documentation released after all the massive efforts to vindicate Kennedy has simply given a much more convincing case for what Chomsky originally said. Don't be put off by the hypocrisy of WND's editors in pushing this story now when they think it will help Bush carry through another imperial campaign by disgracing any Republican rivals. Study the history and learn that both Dems and Reps serve the same elite interests.

This book, "Triangle of death" is a shocking new book on the Assassination Conspiracy of President Kennedy. Not many people know this, but a very dangerous assassin, who had connections to the CIA and the Mafia, was in Dallas on the afternoon that Kennedy was shot. This assassin left the country within 48 hours of the murder. The FBI was trailing this man and they lost him on the morning of the assassination of Kennedy. Again, it cannot be overstated. Professional killer. In Dallas when Kennedy was killed. Left country very soon afterwards. The French government also admits that this man was indeed in Dallas when Kennedy was killed, and they essentially say that he was involved in the Conspiracy. This could be the key to the entire assassination Conspiracy, and this new book, "Triangle of Death" claims to present the shocking truth using actual US government documents. I must say however, that the authors were WAY off concerning the directions from which the shots came. They dont believe that a shot came from the Grassy Knoll, and most researchers know full well that atleast two shots came from the knoll, based on the evidence. That is why I gave this book 4 stars instead of 5. But this book doesnt claim to give us expertise about the shots and from which direction they came, they only wanted to discuss the French Killer who was in Dallas when Kennedy was killed. Was the Corsican Mafia involved with elements of the CIA in killing Kennedy? All Americans owe it to themselves to learn as much of the truth as we can. This book is a great place to start.
