Professor John M. Newman on Nuclear Armageddon 1963: The War JFK Refused to Fight

Professor John Newman on Nuclear Armageddon 1963: The War JFK Refused to Fight

Timestamped Summary - Interview with Danny Jones:

- 00:00:00 - Newman discusses CIA's failed attempt to use the mob to assassinate Castro, which created complications when mobsters got arrested and Bobby Kennedy had to intervene to prevent prosecution that would expose CIA operations.

- 00:01:27 - Newman explains his focus isn't on November 22, 1963 (the assassination day) but on who decided Kennedy should die and how they got away with it - the cover-up is the real story.

- 00:03:13 - Gerald Ford, who later became president, moved the location of JFK's back wound to fit the single bullet theory, showing manipulation of evidence.

- 00:04:16 - Newman reveals CIA head McCone had no idea what rogue CIA elements were doing - it wasn't the whole CIA, just a rogue faction operating the cover-up.

- 00:04:56 - Earl Warren was told Castro and KGB ordered the hit through Oswald, and if truth got out, 40 million Americans would die in war - this lie convinced Warren to lead the commission.

- 00:07:09 - FBI lowered Oswald's threat profile so he could be on the parade route, which Hoover later discovered and punished agents for.

- 00:09:17 - Newman emphasizes he's teaching students born in the 21st century who have no knowledge of these events, and current CIA officials don't want this declassified information shared.

- 00:09:38 - The most damning evidence: the last six weeks of Kennedy's life saw 4-5 different operations happening simultaneously that all had to occur for Kennedy's murder to succeed.

- 00:11:38 - Operation Plan 34A introduced: Joint Chiefs ordered preparation of South Vietnamese operations against North Vietnam starting May 1963, which was kept secret and later linked to Kennedy's assassination.

- 00:13:17 - General Krulak (SACSA - Special Assistant for Counterinsurgency) presented the plan at a Secretary of Defense conference, but it was immediately classified and hidden.

- 00:14:30 - The plan was kept secret for six months until revealed two days before Kennedy was murdered at a November 20, 1963 conference in Honolulu.

- 00:15:00 - General Maxwell Taylor, who went to Vietnam with McNamara in September, would later implement Plan 34A after Kennedy's death, despite Kennedy wanting withdrawal from Vietnam.

- 00:15:50 - McNamara and Taylor removed the Vietnam withdrawal plan during their Honolulu stopover after pressure from a State Department official who threatened dissent.

- 00:16:17 - Upon returning to the Oval Office, Kennedy, McNamara, and Taylor privately restored the withdrawal plan before briefing others - but Taylor was already planning to undermine it.

- 00:18:00 - Taylor secretly gutted Kennedy's withdrawal plan and stood up Plan 34A during Kennedy's last six weeks, removing 70-78% of the withdrawal plan without Kennedy or McNamara knowing.

- 00:19:15 - CIA and FBI simultaneously lowered Oswald's threat level in October 1963 - Newman explains a two-time communist defector should never have been allowed near the parade route.

- 00:21:37 - Newman presents routing and record sheets showing only 3-4 CIA personnel, including Jane Roman (counterintelligence liaison), had access to FBI reports about Oswald's activities.

- 00:23:52 - Jane Roman admitted to Newman that she knowingly signed off on false information stating CIA's latest info on Oswald was from May 1962, when she had current 1963 intelligence.

- 00:24:51 - Roman's confession: "It's indicative of a keen interest in Oswald held very closely on a need-to-know basis" - contradicting decades of CIA denials.

- 00:27:11 - Marvin Gheesling at FBI had maintained a "flash stop" on Oswald's file since 1959 but removed it in October 1963, taking Oswald off the security index right before the assassination.

- 00:30:09 - Declassified document shows the flash was cancelled October 9, 1963, while Oswald was in Mexico City attempting to defect - Gheesling was never deposed about who ordered this.

- 00:32:01 - NSAM 263 (October 1963): Kennedy's secret order to withdraw 1,000 advisors by end of 1963 and complete withdrawal by 1965, which only Kennedy wanted.

- 00:33:38 - The Buddhist crisis (monk self-immolation) forced Kennedy to accelerate withdrawal plans and take action on civil rights and Soviet détente - three major policy shifts that threatened military establishment.

- 00:35:22 - Taylor was a "Trojan horse" - Kennedy brought him in after Bay of Pigs, thinking he favored flexible response over massive nuclear retaliation, but Taylor secretly wanted war.

- 00:37:52 - Taylor recommended combat troops in late 1961 despite Kennedy ordering him to recommend against them - Kennedy fired him from Vietnam duties but kept him due to family friendship.

- 00:40:00 - July 20, 1961 SIOP briefing: Joint Chiefs proposed massive surprise nuclear attack on USSR and China in fall of 1963, when US would have maximum ICBMs and Soviets would have minimal capability.

- 00:41:17 - Kennedy walked out of the SIOP briefing saying "And we call ourselves the human race" - rejecting the plan for nuclear Armageddon scheduled for fall 1963.

- 00:43:00 - The plan targeted Soviet Union, China, and even Albania - when Kennedy questioned why Albania, Lemnitzer arrogantly replied "It's in the plan, sir."

- 00:44:00 - Famous photo shows Lemnitzer giving Kennedy a "dagger stare" when being sent to Europe as Supreme Allied Commander, while Taylor smirks in background knowing he's next in line.

- 00:45:21 - LBJ attended the July 1961 SIOP briefing - Newman found records proving Johnson was present despite earlier beliefs he missed it due to drinking.

- 00:45:59 - The plan estimated 60% of Soviet population would die immediately, but scientists like Oppenheimer and Einstein knew radiation fallout would kill everyone globally.

- 00:46:17 - General LeMay wanted to drop 3 nuclear warheads on every target "just to be sure" - hydrogen bombs over 100 times more powerful than Hiroshima and Nagasaki combined.

- 00:51:30 - Lemnitzer sent memo in January 1962 demanding combat troops for Vietnam, knowing US lacked ground forces, revealing the only option in his mind was nuclear weapons.

- 00:53:40 - Allen Dulles was unemployed after being fired in 1961, but people visited his house throughout 1963 seeking his counsel - he had funded Hitler through Wall Street firms during WWII.

- 00:55:00 - US provided approximately 60% of pig iron for Nazi tanks and artillery through Dulles brothers' operations - they were motivated by profit.

- 00:57:00 - Bobby Kennedy helped get people on Warren Commission to "get it over with" while conducting his own investigation, even traveling to Cuba to speak with Castro.

- 00:59:07 - On Air Force One after assassination, LBJ stared out window and asked his aide: "Are the missiles flying yet?" - proving he knew this was supposed to trigger nuclear war.

- 01:04:14 - Howard Burris was LBJ's handler, not his aide - working for General Birdcall in Pentagon, Burris told Johnson when they'd meet and what he'd do, not the other way around.

- 01:01:50 - Burris prepared accurate daily intelligence reports for LBJ about global events, while Kennedy received manipulated briefings designed to get him to do what others wanted.

- 01:05:21 - Kennedys planned to drop Johnson from 1964 ticket due to his alcoholism and refusal to perform duties - Johnson knew this and knew someone was preparing him to be president.

- 01:07:10 - Johnson didn't want nuclear war and kept refusing through 1964, but by May 1965 when Marines landed at Da Nang, Soviets had ICBMs and the 1961 plan was obsolete.
