Jeff Morley Wrote:Orest Pena’s story is particularly compelling because he was trusted by the FBI agents in New Orleans. As a bar owner of Cuban descent, he saw and heard a lot of interest to law enforcement. Oswald had visited his bar in the summer of 1963 in the company of a man Pena described as Mexican. Pena also said he saw Oswald with FBI agent Warren DeBreuys on several occasions. DeBreuys denied this and denigrated Pena as unreliable.

In fact, Pena was able to prove that he had been a confidential source for the FBI and still his testimony was ignored, no doubt in part due to the everyday racism which infected even the liberal lawyers of theWarren Commission who could not imagine a Cuban coujld be as credible as a white FBI agent.

The HSCA took him more seriously and was able to incorporate his testimony into their account of the assassination but no one else has been able to read his testimony ever since.

Such is one of the uses of classification. It prevents people from asking follow up questions. Pena is now dead. His testimony will shed new light on the FBI’s interest in and relationship with Oswald.

It's facts like these that prove beyond all doubt that believers are both cowards and liars. You see, an honest man would question why the testimony of a bar owner would need to be classified. There's absolutely ZERO chance that a New Orleans bar owner is capable of testifying to something that would harm National Security interests... There's absolutely NO EVIDENCE AT ALL that he's a spy for a foreign government, or would know anything that, on any rational basis, needs to be classified.

A believer, on the other hand, absolutely refuses even to acknowledge that there's any problem here with classifying Orest Pena's testimony.

I predict, right here and now - that in October of this year - when his testimony is likely to be released - that it will contain nothing at all that would justify being classified - that it will only contain evidence that Oswald was far more known by, and used by the FBI than the FBI ever let on. Orest Pena's testimony will contradict elements of the Warren Commission's grand theory (just as his Warren Commission testimony did.)

And by the questions asked by the HSCA, and not asked by the Warren Commission - his testimony will show a willful refusal to address the real evidence in this case by the Warren Commission.

God willing, I'll still be here 10 months from now to see these predictions come true.
