How much does the public know about the members of the Warren Commission?
Here is a little information to wet your appetite.
A conspiracy theoriest could have a field day with this group of men, not only with their findings on the commision, but, how and why they were selected and who do they really work for?

Earl Warren, Chief Justice of the United States
As Attorney General, Warren is most remembered for his support of Japanese internment during the war, the compulsory removal of Japanese Americans to internment camps away from the West Coast of the United States.[


Richard Russell, Jr. (D-GA), U.S. Senator
Russell, a white supremacist, had repeatedly blocked and defeated civil rights legislation via use of the filibuster and had co-authored the Southern Manifesto in opposition to civil rights.


John Sherman Cooper (R-KY), U.S. Senator
After a year at Centre College in Danville, Kentucky, Cooper transferred to Yale, where he was captain of the basketball team, and a member of Skull & Bones;


Hale Boggs (D-LA), U.S. Representative
During his tenure in Congress, Boggs was an influential player in the government. After Brown v. Board of Education he signed the Southern Manifesto condemning desegregation in the 1950s and opposed the 1964 Civil Rights Act.
In 1972, while he was still Majority Leader, the twin engine airplane in which Boggs was traveling over a remote section of Alaska disappeared. The airplane presumably crashed and was never found

Gerald Ford (R-MI), U.S. Representative
admitted in the spring of 1938 to Yale Law School (skull and bones?)
he did not write a single piece of major legislation in his entire career."
In the foreword to his book, A Presidential Legacy and The Warren Commission, Ford said the CIA destroyed or kept from investigators critical secrets connected to the 1963 assassination of President John F. Kennedy. He said the commission's probe put "certain classified and potentially damaging operations in danger of being exposed." The CIA's reaction, he addeds to hide or destroy some information, which can easily be misinterpreted as collusion in JFK's assassination." [36]

According to a 1963 FBI memo released in 2008, Ford secretly provided the FBI with information regarding two of his fellow commission members, both of whom were dubious about the FBI's conclusions regarding the assassination.[





Allen Welsh Dulles, former Director of the Central Intelligence Agency
Dulles became the station chief in Berne, Switzerland, for the newly formed Office of Strategic Services (the precursor to the CIA),
After the war in Europe, Dulles served for six months as the OSS Berlin station chief. In 1947, Congress created the Central Intelligence Agency. Dulles was closely involved with its development. His translator at this time was Henry Kissinger,[citation needed] who worked for Army Intelligence.

Dulles' CIA Operation Paperclip assimilated Nazi scientists into the American establishment by obscuring their histories and short circuiting efforts to bring their true stories to light

Under Dulles's direction, the CIA created MK-Ultra, a top secret mind control research project which was managed by Sidney Gottlieb. Dulles also personally oversaw Operation Mockingbird, a program which influenced American media companies as part of the "New Look".

His nephew, Avery Dulles, was a Roman Catholic cardinal, Jesuit priest and noted theologian who taught at Fordham University.

John J. McCloy, former President of the World Bank
He was a legal counselor to the major German chemical combine I. G. Farben,
During World War II, as Assistant Secretary of War, McCloy was a crucial voice in setting U.S. military priorities. The War Department was petitioned throughout late 1944 to help save Nazi prisoners by ordering the bombing of the railroad lines leading to Auschwitz and the gas chambers in the camp. McCloy responded that only heavy bombers would be able to reach the sites from England, and that those bombers would be too vulnerable and were needed elsewhere.
At his direction, a campaign of wholesale pardoning and commutation of sentences of Nazi criminals took place, including those of the prominent industrialists Friedrich Flick and Alfried Krupp. McCloy also pardoned Ernst von Weizsäcker. (In 1978 Ernst Weizsacker's son German President Richard von Weizsäcker conferred honorary German Citizenship on McCloy).
Following this, he served as chairman of the Chase Manhattan Bank from 1953 to 1960, and as chairman of the Ford Foundation from 1958 to 1965; he was also a trustee of the Rockefeller Foundation from 1946 to 1949, and then again from 1953 to 1958, before he took up the position at Ford.

From 1954 to 1970, he was chairman of the prestigious Council on Foreign Relations in New York, to be succeeded by David Rockefeller, who had worked closely with him at the Chase Bank. McCloy had a long association with the Rockefeller family, going back to his early Harvard days when he taught the young Rockefeller brothers how to sail.



Among the advisors was attorney Arlen Specter, now a Senator.

graduated from Yale Law School (skull and bones?)

At the recommendation of Representative Gerald R. Ford, he worked for the Warren Commission, investigating the assassination of John F. Kennedy. As an assistant counsel for the commission, he authored or co-authored[12] the controversial "single bullet theory," which suggested the wounds to Kennedy and non-fatal wounds to Texas Governor John Connally were caused by the same bullet.

It is important to remember that Prescott Bush and Brown Brothers Harriman were also involved in the dealings of I.B. Farben as well as others of the Thyssen conglomerate. McCloy was one of the troopers for BBH.

Considering who I believe was involved in dealing with the "Traitor of the Elite", in Dallas, I am not the least bit surprised John McCloy and John Dulles, the ex-CIA Director would be involved in the "investigation" of the assassination of JFK, the man who upset the apple cart.

They had allot more to keep under wraps.

The final act of the "play" is what we are now witnessing under the guise of "change".

Great post OHD, I just finished reading "Rise of the 4th Reich by Jim Marss which covers the people involved in opeation paperclip. I was stunned thinking about their later association with the Warren Commission. God almighty, the nazis won the friggin war while losing all the battles. History is stranger than fiction sometimes. S&F.

I did a research paper about the JFK assassination and have come up that the single bullet theory is bs, and that there most likely had to be a shooter in the grassy knoll. And wasn't there another report that actually came out a couple years ago about the JFK assassination?? I saw it but forgot what it was called but it pretty much means that the Warren Report must have been bs if they released another one. If anyone knows what its called please tell me, just so I have it for future reference.

LBJ admitting doubts about the Warren Report in 1969 to CBS! He believes that 'International Interests' were also involved. Its a clip I put on You Tube "secrenasaman" channel. I can not get a link up here...so a little help on dragging LBJs confession to this thread.

It is very sobering. Why would he even say it??? &... it was censored for a time on Nation Security grounds!
