Me & Lee Quotes

“And finally, in his well-researched and powerfully written book, JFK and the Unspeakable, author James Douglass explains why powerful forces inside the U. S. Government decided to kill JFK. Before looking at the event itself, he establishes the context of the assassination. In the process of tracing the story step-by-step, he reveals that a plot to assassinate Kennedy in Chicago on November 2, 1963, had been foiled thanks to a tip from an informant named “Lee.” Douglass poses the question: Was this “Lee” really Lee Harvey Oswald? Suddenly, I understood the cryptic comments that Lee had made to me in October about getting a “trusted FBI contact” in Chicago from Dr. Mary Sherman. If Lee had not warned them about Chicago — and if Kennedy had been killed in Chicago on November 2 — then he would never have come to Dallas. Lee would never have been accused of assassinating him, nor been murdered himself. Due to Lee’s heroic actions, Kennedy lived three extra weeks, and Lee died as a result. Such was the cost of his courage.”
