Most of them. A few differences:

(a) I think the Warren Commission either missed or intentionally underplayed Oswald's devotion to Castro's Cuba. That devotion was a major reason for Oswald to kill Kennedy, but if they underplayed it intentionally, it was to prevent a movement arising demanding we invade Cuba, I think.

This was, of course; the story that the CIA immediately started pushing... As I recall, most of the "Cuba" leads all came from either David Atlee Phillips, or those connected to Phillips... (such as the DRE) So it seems that disinfo agents are still trying to push that theory!

Henry Sienzant Wrote:(b) They didn't understand Oswald's movements after the assassination, and missed the import of him taking a bus & a cab in his hurry to get back to his roominghouse and pick up his revolver. They failed to grasp that Oswald -- having abandoned his rifle at the Depository, and having missed taking out the man he compared to Adolph Hitler (General Edwin Walker) back in April -- understood he would not be free for long, and therefore didn't have a lot of time left as a free man to finish the job* he started in April.

"missed the import of him taking a bus & a cab"... I think the import was stated pretty well when a reporter asked Wade if this was the first time in history that the Dallas Transit Company had been used for a getaway car...

Henry Sienzant Wrote:© They misunderstood the reasons Oswald wanted Marina to go back to Russia, and asked for his passport request to be considered separately. He was seeking a safe-haven for Marina and his children in case he was caught attempting to kill Walker, but the Warren Commission missed that logic completely, and couldn't understand why he was pressuring Marina to return to Russia.

Sheer speculation on your part, and a begging of the question. You cannot presume that Oswald attempted to kill Walker, then use that presumption to try to identify why Oswald was asking for Marina to go back to Russia.

But Henry has no difference of opinion with the Warren Commission when they are caught in outright lies... such as the "hidden" clipboard.
