He's the chief of special ops and therefore the most likely within the defence-intelligence apparatus to be involved. "But he was in Antarctica!" .... yep, that's awfully convenient. When Allen Dulles or Curtis Le May are incommunicado for this or other operations they are viewed as suspicious. Yet Prouty gets a free pass. Who accompanied him to Antarctica and why? As for fingering Lansdale purely on the strength of a photo taken from behind ... weak. Besides, Lansdale was protected for services rendered in Indo-China years earlier and no one was every going to touch him. Lansdale himself laughed off the suggestion. Prouty turns up during the Garrison investigation - supposedly to provide him with information. Although precisely what he offered that the DA of New Orleans didn't already know is an interesting question. Or was he reaching out to Garrison to find out what he knew? The same can be said for the legion of fawning cheerleaders who have trumpeted Prouty as a man after he invited them over for milk and cookies and hearing him talk about JFK. Could it be that he was up to the very same tricks Mae Brussell accused Mark Lane and Dick Gregory of - i.e. finding out who knows precisely what and figuring out whether they need to DO SOMETHING about them ...? Bear in mind that throughout the 60s and 70s witnesses were being whacked left, right and centre - and yet throughout this period Prouty is mysteriously immune from the same kind of retribution and intimidation. As the saying goes - if it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck etc. etc. Aleph Greenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14200843805251875883noreply@blogger.com
