282 Double Cross in Dallas? [221]
That the Trento article suggests that Hunt was in fact in Dallas and that
he was there on an assignment involving Lee Harvey Oswald is significant
as well.
WAS HUNT ORDERED TO DALLAS?
Could it be that Hunt had somehow been manipulated into involvement
in the JFK assassination conspiracy, not knowing that there were bigger and
more insidious things going on in the strange world of Lee Harvey Oswald?
Was Hunt indeed sent to Dallas on a CIA-sponsored pretext,
orchestrated by one of his superiors—namely James Jesus Angleton—only
to discover, after the fact, that the assassination of John F. Kennedy was in
the works?
According to Trento, Angleton told him that Hunt had been sent to
Dallas by a high-level Soviet KGB mole working in the CIA. However,
says Trento, "I later came to conclude that the mole-sent-Hunt idea was, to
use his phrase, disinformation; that Angleton was trying to protect his own
connections to Hunt's being in Dallas . . . My guess is, it was Angleton
himself who sent Hunt to Dallas, because he didn't want to use anybody
from his own shop." 594
All of this is interesting, to say the least, and pinpoints Angleton as a
key player in the events linking the CIA and Hunt to Dallas. Yet, as we
shall see, there is much more to the story of the role played by the CIA's
Mossad ally James J. Angleton in the JFK assassination and cover-up.
In fact, Angleton had a hand in the very part of the assassination
conspiracy that involved the frame-up of Lee Harvey Oswald as a "pro-
Castro agitator" guilty of associating with the Soviet KGB.
THE CIA & THE MEXICO CITY SCENARIO
The Trento article accepts, as its basis, the story that Lee Harvey
Oswald had been in Mexico City meeting with the Soviets and the Castro
Cubans.
However, as Mark Lane demonstrated in Plausible Denial, the story that
Oswald had been in Mexico City meeting with the communists was an
outright fraud—a concoction of the CIA itself.
Lane summarized the situation: "At the outset it should be understood
that almost all of the information regarding Oswald's alleged visit to
Mexico and his contact with the Soviets and Cubans while there had been
fabricated by the Central Intelligence Agency. In its report, the [Warren]
commission cited the CIA as the primary source for the Mexico City
scenario, declining to seek independent corroboration for the CIA's version
of events.
"Nevertheless, the Mexico City scenario constitutes the conventional
wisdom as promulgated by the CIA and accepted by the Warren
Commission. It remains an article of faith for those who subsequently
endorsed the Warren Report, including journalists and official investigating
