Lee Harvey Oswald, the CIA, and LSD: New Clues in Newly Declassified Documents

From: The Intercept

An unredacted memo adds depth to our understanding of the CIA’s response to allegations that Oswald worked with the spy agency.

The Biden administration declassified a new clue last week to the relationship between Lee Harvey Oswald and the Central Intelligence Agency. Among the intersections between Oswald and the CIA, his time as a young Marine at the Atsugi naval air facility in Japan in 1957 is high among them.

Atsugi was a launching pad for U-2 spy flights over the Soviet Union and was also a hub of the CIA’s research into psychedelic drugs. “A CIA memo titled ‘Truth Drugs in Interrogation’ revealed the agency practice of dosing agents who were marked for dangerous overseas missions,” wrote author David Talbot in “The Devil’s Chessboard,” his 2015 biography of former CIA Director Allen Dulles.

Talbot’s exploration of the link ended there: “Some chroniclers of Oswald’s life have suggested that he was one of the young marines on whom the CIA performed its acid tests.”

A new document released in full last week relates directly to Oswald’s time at Atsugi, revealing details about the CIA’s response to testimony from a former agency accountant that the spy service had employed Oswald — who went on to be a gunman in the assassination of President John F. Kennedy in 1963.

The CIA’s role in Kennedy’s assassination remains one of the great unsolved mysteries of American history. A majority of Americans believe the president was killed as part of a conspiracy that went beyond Oswald, and roughly a third believe the CIA or elements within the CIA had a hand in it.

The CIA’s role in Kennedy’s assassination remains one of the great unsolved mysteries of American history.

The main theory posits the assassination as a response to Kennedy’s firing of Dulles, a cloak-and-dagger powerbroker, following the failed CIA Bay of Pigs operation to unseat Fidel Castro’s Communist government in Cuba. Some believers of the theory also point to evidence Kennedy was souring on the Vietnam War or militarism in general. If Dulles did orchestrate a coup against Kennedy, it would be far from his first.

A memorandum from 1978 reports that a finance clerk with the CIA, James Wilcott Jr., had informed a House panel exploring the assassination that “the CIA hired Lee Harvey Oswald when Oswald served in Atsugi.” The memo goes on to cast doubt on Wilcott’s claim, noting that he arrived in Tokyo in 1960, after Oswald had left the base, suggesting that Wilcott’s claim is based on “second hand” information.

A version of the document was declassified by the Trump administration in 2017, though it redacted a portion of a note that runs along the bottom of it. That redaction obscured the name of a CIA official, Dan Nieschur, who fielded requests from congressional investigators in the 1970s and searched Oswald’s files. Jefferson Morley, editor of the Substack newsletter JFK Facts, said that inconsequential lifting of such redactions seems to be common in this latest document release, allowing the government to claim it is releasing thousands of documents, while most had largely already been in the public domain.

The memo, written to a person identified only as “JHW,” explains that CIA official Russ Holmes “inherited the so-called Oswald files, but that he has assured me the Agency had no contact with Oswald.” The memo says that “contrary records” might be in “EA” — a likely reference to the CIA’s East Asia desk — and that they would be searched for and checked if found.” “He is after it,” the memo says of Holmes, who became legendary for his now-declassified CIA archive on the assassination.

The new JFK files include a number of personnel records connected to Wilcott, whose testimony before the House committee in the late 1970s made news at the time.

Oswald’s next few years make much more sense with a connection to the CIA than without them.

After studying Russian while in the military — perhaps trained at the Army Language School in Monterey, California, according to Talbot, sourcing the claim to the Warren Commission chief counsel J. Lee Rankin — Oswald was discharged with a false claim of his mother’s ill health.

Completely broke, with only $203 in his bank account, he took a boat to England nine days after his discharge. Then, according to his wife, Oswald took a military transport flight to Finland, staying at two of the nicest hotels in Helsinki.

Oswald then took an overnight train from Helsinki to Moscow. Once there, he presented himself at the U.S. Embassy to announce he’d become a defector. Embassy staff later recalled that his defection speech sounded odd and rehearsed. He spent two and a half years in the Soviet Union and then, just as curiously as he’d defected, returned home to the United States.

If the series of moves — from the discharge to the flight to the defection to the return — were made at the behest of the CIA, they make sense, with Oswald playing some type of role in the inscrutable world of spycraft. Absent an intelligence link, the tick-tock of Oswald’s post-military years would be situated somewhere between extraordinarily implausible to impossible to pull off.

The CIA is known to have explored creative uses of psychedelics — and Dulles was specifically aware of these activities, even proposing some of the uses. On March 2, 1960, according to a declassified CIA report included in last week’s document release, the CIA director briefed Richard Nixon, then the vice president, on a proposal to deal with Fidel Castro and Cuba. The report, which appears to be another version of a previously declassified document, included plans for economic sabotage of cane production and interference with oil deliveries.

A more innovative idea presented in the briefing, according to the CIA, appears to be a reference to dosing Castro with LSD, which the agency was at the time experimenting with. Nixon was told that the agency had “a drug, which if placed in Castro’s food, would make him behave in such an irrational manner that a public appearance could have very damaging results to him.”

The CIA’s claim to have had no contact with Oswald is undercut by the fact that George de Mohrenschildt, a CIA asset, became close friends with Oswald in the months before the assassination. That spring, de Mohrenschildt traveled to New York, Philadelphia, and Washington. According to documents found in the newly declassified files, at the same time as his trip, the CIA’s Domestic Operations Division ran a search on de Mohrenschildt, “exact reason unknown,” according to two documents created by a CIA analyst included in last week’s declassification.

The covert arm of the division was run at the time by E. Howard Hunt, a black ops specialist who confessed later in life to learning ahead of time of a conspiracy to assassinate Kennedy that involved high-level figures in the CIA.

“It is interesting that Allen’s interest in de Mohrenschildt coincided with the earlier portion of this trip,” the memo concludes, referring to Gale Allen, a case officer with the CIA’s Domestic Operations Division at the time, “and the information would suggest that possibly Allen and de Mohrenschildt were possibly in the same environment in Washington, D.C., circa 26 April 1963.”

In the wake of the latest document release, which also withheld countless additional documents, Fox News host Tucker Carlson reported that a source who reviewed the undisclosed records said they included evidence of CIA involvement in the assassination. Carlson said that he had invited his friend Mike Pompeo, the former CIA director who also withheld crucial documents, on to his show to respond. “Though he rarely turns down a televised interview, he refused to come,” Carlson said. “We hope he will reconsider.”

  1. Morning All!
    last evening our son called and we were chatting about Thanksgiving–the one time of the year he absolutely tries to visit here. He loves that holiday more than Christmas! Anyway, about 3 weeks or so ago, they got another dog–a puppy so their dog would have a companion. we share an amazon account so i can see by their purchases, puppy potty training is not going well..lol
    He told us if “Sam” (Samantha) isn’t trained by then, they will not come…so I’m sad. He’s hopeful she can be trained within another month, so we’ll see. His other dog Abby was almost 8 weeks old when they got her and mostly trained already, so they had it easy with her.

Consistency is THE most important aspect – they need to get him/her into a routine – as soon as the pup wakes up in the morning, take it outside to pee and praise it effusively when it does. Any time the pup eats or drinks, take it outside…do that every time and he/she will get the message.

  5. I’m just curious – no other reason – but let me know if you hear of any of these protestors chanting “from the river to the sea.” Translated: the elimination of Israel in it’s entirety – from the Jordan River all the way to the Sea.

    EXCERPT: ““Palestine will be free from the river to the sea.” It is a refrain familiar to most Americans by now. It can be heard on college campuses, at Black Lives Matters protests, and all across social media. Ten words that that describe a liberated nation and a territory with clearly delineated boundaries. Yet the meaning of these words is fraught with ambiguity and controversy.

    Does it mean that a free Palestine throughout what is now Israel and the Occupied Territories will be a democratic state with a robust civil society, where every individual lives in security, and is equal before the law? Or does it imply the creation of a state called “Palestine,” a Palestine that is Judenrein, where Jews will literally be chased into the river and the sea? The slogan, in and of itself, can certainly be interpreted to mean either, along with various shades in between.

    In his recent Jewish Currents essay, “What Does ‘From the River to the Sea’ Really Mean?”, Yousef Munayyer, Executive Director of the US Campaign for Palestinian Rights, argues for the “democratic” interpretation. For Munayyer, those who claim the phrase is antisemitic or genocidal are promoting anti-Palestinian Zionist propaganda to perpetuate Jewish hegemony and colonialism against the region’s Arab population. Although I doubt Munayyer himself wants to see millions of Israelis swimming for their lives in the Mediterranean, his op-ed is replete with historical inaccuracies and deflections.

    Unpacking his misleading take on the slogan’s use helps explain why it resonates so powerfully among those who want to see Israel’s independence terminated and why it evokes such fear among Jews, even those who are sympathetic to the plight of the Palestinians.

    Munayyer’s rejection of the genocidal overtones of “river to the sea” hinges on its alleged history. Although he readily admits that Hamas, the PFLP and even the PLO in its pre-Oslo incarnation have deployed this slogan to accompany their terrorism, Munayyer alleges there exists a far larger Palestinian civic movement that uses this phrase as part of a call to see a “secular democratic state established in all of historic Palestine,” and their usage of “river to the sea” predates Hamas and the PLO….”

  7. “Israel Is Just the Beginning: The World Is Turning Upside Down — As bad as it seems, it’s going to get worse.”
    JD RUCKER
    OCT 8, 2023

    EXCERPT: “The esteemed Victor Davis Hanson posted an excellent analysis of what’s really happening in the Middle East and how the Biden-Harris regime are complicit. The Israel War is Joe Biden’s albatross. They say foreign relations don’t affect elections but such rules don’t apply when Islam and Israel are the subjects.

    Whatever the White House projects publicly, behind the scenes they will be playing both sides. They will declare support for Israel as they’ve already started doing, but they will quickly reverse that support when they have a smidgen of “evidence” that Israel is engaged in asymmetrical retribution. But here’s the thing. Asymmetrical retribution is the only option for Israel at this point. They’ve pandered, compromised, and restrained themselves for decades. It doesn’t work. They know this now.

    Behind the scenes, the Biden-Harris regime will be working with Iran as they’ve done from the start. They’ll be supportive of Hamas as they’ve been from the start. And they will alert their Pro-Hamas base in the United States that they will hold ISRAEL accountable.

    But let’s call it what it is. This is not a Biden-Harris operation. This is 100% being driven by the unholy alliance of Barack Obama, the Deep State, the Military Industrial Complex, and the emerging Multipolar World Order. Biden is the scapegoat. Obama is calling the shots. With that said, here’s Victor Davis Hanson…”

    Our Take: “The entire establishment has aligned on behalf of Israel following the unprecedented attacks by Hamas early Saturday morning, with GOP fake primary candidate Nikki Haley calling this an ‘attack on America.’ As of Sunday, Iran-sponsored Hezbollah entered the fray, and reports on social media show military aged males across the region celebrating and promising to join the fight as well. This is gearing up to be a long conflict in the region, and the defense contractors couldn’t be more thrilled.

    Democrats came out swinging against allegations that the $6B that Biden just released to Iran isn’t allowed to be used for anything other than humanitarian purposes, as if (1) money isn’t fungible, and (2) the US government has any reliable mechanism to monitor or influence such decisions.

    Of note, Politico was getting ahead of this narrative three weeks ago, and reportedly Iran claimed that they will use their unfrozen funds whatever way they want. And then on Saturday, the Supreme Leader of Iran issued a statement on X that said, ‘God willing, the cancer of the usurper Zionist regime will be eradicated at the hands of the Palestinian people and the Resistance forces throughout the region.’ X ruled that the post violated the platform terms, but allowed it to remain up.

    I support the Jewish people unequivocally, and I believe they have a right to exist in the land where Solomon’s temple once stood. But the idea that the Israeli government cannot be criticized for what, unbelievably and inexplicably, amounts to the worst national security failure in modern history is not a position I will ever take. Nonetheless, I’ve been called an antisemite multiple times over the weekend for just that. I’ve also been called a Zionist for not supporting the idea that the Jews should be wiped off the face of the earth. Fun times.

    The fact that these attacks come amidst the entire US establishment beating the drums of war, billions in new funding to Israel — following the $6B release to Iran and Biden’s Sep 20 promise to Palestine of full US government support forever — as well as zero tolerance for journalistic inquiry, solidifies my position.

    I’m not picking a side of who should die — and that’s what they want all of us to do.

    The emotional pleas surrounding this conflict are turned up to 11. As I said, I believe the Jewish people have a right to live in the land God promised them. That doesn’t mean I’m going to cheer on the coming genocide of those that don’t agree with my position. And the language from the war mongers promises exactly that. Genocide.

    EXCERPT: “Iranian security officials helped plan Hamas’s Saturday surprise attack on Israel and gave the green light for the assault at a meeting in Beirut last Monday, according to senior members of Hamas and Hezbollah, another Iran-backed militant group.

    Officers of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps had worked with Hamas since August to devise the air, land and sea incursions—the most significant breach of Israel’s borders since the 1973 Yom Kippur War—those people said.

    Details of the operation were refined during several meetings in Beirut attended by IRGC officers and representatives of four Iran-backed militant groups, including Hamas, which holds power in Gaza, and Hezbollah, a Shiite militant group and political faction in Lebanon, they said.

    U.S. officials say they haven’t seen evidence of Tehran’s involvement. In an interview with CNN that aired Sunday, Secretary of State Antony Blinken said: “We have not yet seen evidence that Iran directed or was behind this particular attack, but there is certainly a long relationship.”

    “We don’t have any information at this time to corroborate this account,” said a U.S. official of the meetings. — The Wall Street Journal

    Our Take: “Adding to Ashe’s comments in a previous article on the Hamas attacks that took place in Israel over the weekend—and the oh-so-surprising response by neocons like Nikki Haley in her war mongering opportunism—we should not forget the long history of war mongering involving a spiritual battle between branches of the Abrahamic tree.

    At some point in history, the brothers and sisters of Abraham, Jews, Christians and Muslims started warring with each other over many things, one of which is the Holy Land. The idea of taking Israel as a kind of price of God’s Chosen people is a very old idea, one that landed in the hands of some people you’d never would have thought would want to advance it.

    Here’s some historical context for the situation in Israel:…..”

    “British Jews targeted in anti-semitic attacks as Muslims take to the streets to celebrate Hamas’ terror attacks in Israel — London police have announced they will increase their presence on the streets to protect the Jewish community”
    October 09, 2023
    editor: REMIX NEWS author: THOMAS BROOKE

    ENTIRE ARTICLE: “A Kosher restaurant in a popular Jewish area of London was vandalized on Sunday evening and pro-Palestine graffiti was sprayed on a nearby bridge following the attacks on Israel coordinated by the military wing of Palestinian terror group Hamas. The restaurant in Golders Green, north London, had its windows smashed, while the phrase “Free Palestine” was sprayed in graffiti on a bridge just meters away.

    London Mayor Sadiq Khan took to X, formerly Twitter, to condemn the attacks, insisting that “there is no tolerance for hate” in the U.K. capital. “I remain in close contact with the Met Police. Whoever did this will face the full force of the law. I stand with Jewish Londoners, today and always,” he added.

    The antisemitic attacks come just hours after thousands of Muslims took to British streets to celebrate the surprise breach by Hamas militants into Israeli territory and the subsequent indiscriminate slaughtering of civilians, including 260 attendees at the Supernova music festival held in the Negev desert, not far from the contested Gaza Strip.

    British Jews have feared a rise in antisemitic attacks following the events over the weekend on the Israeli-Palestinian border, and the Metropolitan Police issued a statement on Sunday announcing it would increase its presence on London’s streets to provide further protection for the community.

    “We are aware that this conflict has a far-reaching impact on communities around the world, and we extend our full support to those affected in London,” it wrote. “We are listening and working with communities and partners to ensure people feel safe and protected. We ask that members of the public report anything concerning, such as threatening behavior.”

    The Jewish community is bracing itself for further attacks, as is customary after an outbreak of violence in the Middle East. “When there’s a big outburst of conflict in Israel, and in Gaza in particular, we get a spike in anti-Jewish hate crimes here in Britain,” said Dave Rich, director of policy for CST, a charity advising Jewish organizations on security in Britain.

    The events in the Middle East only show signs of further escalation, with Israel expected to retaliate for what its leaders have called “by far the worst day in Israeli history.” Jonathan Conricus, a spokesman for the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), described the attacks as Israel’s “9/11 and Pearl Harbor wrapped into one,” and announced that the Israeli military had dealt a “fatal blow” to Hamas’ capabilities with multiple airstrikes targeting Gaza overnight. Israel has called up 110,000 reservists in preparation for further combat.”

    ENTIRE ARTICLE: “A viral video of Hamas members parading a naked body in the back of a pickup truck following yesterday’s violent incursion into Israeli territory has been identified as 30-year-old German tattoo artist Shani Louk.

    She was reportedly attending a music festival when Hamas militia members landed nearby with the help of motor-powered hang gliders and began opening fire. It is unclear if she was killed or unconscious, but her body is displayed in the video in a highly unusual manner, suggesting the woman is dead. Hamas members displayed Louk in the back of a pickup truck as Palestinians cheered and spat on her corpse.
    (Tweet link – deleted from Twitter now)
    Shortly after the video went viral, Shani’s mother, Ricarda, issued a plea for help regarding what happened to her daughter. She holds Shani’s photo in her hand, saying: “This morning my daughter, Shani Nicole Louk, a German citizen, was kidnapped with a group of tourists in southern Israel by Palestinian Hamas. “We were sent a video in which I could clearly see our daughter unconscious in the car with the Palestinians and them driving around the Gaza Strip. I ask you to send us any help or any news. Thank you very much.”

    Louk’s kidnapping comes after reports that Hamas gunmen opened fire on the festival goers at a desert rave near Kibbutz Re’im, located close to the Gaza Strip. Gili Yoskovich told the BBC she hid as gunmen opened fire around her, saying, “They were going tree by tree and shooting. Everywhere. From two sides. I saw people were dying all around. I was very quiet. I didn’t cry, I didn’t do anything.”

    Louk’s family has since interviewed with Spiegel, who said they have been informed that her credit card was used in Gaza. According to information from German state media SWR, the mother has family ties to Ravensburg in Baden-Württemberg.

    Hundreds of Israelis have reportedly been killed, hundreds kidnapped, and thousands wounded following the Hamas incursion, which also saw a number of Israeli soldiers and commanders killed or taken hostage. Israel has already responded by leveling entire apartment blocks and targeting military installations. It is unclear how many Palestinian civilians and Hamas members have been killed in the retaliatory strikes.

    Israel has vowed to take revenge for the attack, with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warning that Hamas would be destroyed after such an attack, described by Israeli officials as Israel’s “Pearl Harbor.” “Our first objective is to clear out the hostile forces that infiltrated our territory and restore the security and quiet to the (Israeli) communities that have been attacked,” Netanyahu said while addressing a Security Cabinet meeting.”
