My obituary of Orlando Bosch, the anti-Castro Cuban terrorist protected by a number of US governments, and generations of Bushes, is in today's Indy; you can
link to it here. Bosch's story branches off into all sorts of murky areas; one of the keys to understanding it is working out the nature of the involvement of US government, both officially and unofficially, in many of the acts of terrorism and assassination he engineered. Operation Condor certainly could not have proceeded without the backing of America; the Letelier assassination definitely received assistance from the CIA. Linking Bosch to the JFK assassination is more risky--although it would be hard to ignore the likely involvement of both Cuban exiles and CIA agents who'd worked with them, or the idea that Oswald
most likely was an informant trying to find out about the theft of weapons supplied to those exiles--but although the Dealy Plaza photo purportedly of Bosch next to the umbrella man bears a resemblance, it also looks more like the older Bosch than his 1963 self, and the testimony linking him to Dallas is not convincing, much less conclusive.
There is no question, however, that Bosch qualified as a bona fide terrorist by any definition the US government used then or especially uses now, but that really didn't matter.

The dark complexioned man was NOT orlando bosch. He was my neighbor who lived in Chester, Pa. a JFK hater. He served in 24th Infantry Div. same as Gen. Walker. He once told me in '64 that he was there when Kennedy "got his". He was a bow gunner in WWII with radio responsibilities. He was a dark Italian. Also spent 3 years in Ft. Meade, Md. !946-1949. Military Intelligence? Info on his duties At Ft. Meade all blacked out. My manuscript was lost by FBI. Three followups and no response from FBI. He owned several '57 chevy's and wore white spats(ankle coverings) on special occasions. This man needs to be investigated. I believe his identity had to be protected since he was one or only conspirator out in public view. Look at the curb photo and notice a definite halo(erasure effect) surrounding his head area. No other effect as this can be seen in other photos or of other spectators. Steve Kasarsky, kazz447@gmail.com or 662-988-3145.
