We must face the fact that the United States is neither omnipotent nor omniscient, that we are only 6% of the world's population, that we cannot impose our will upon the other 94% of mankind, that we cannot right every wrong or reverse each adversity, and that therefore there cannot be an American solution to every world problem.
~ John F. Kennedy, from an address at the University of Washington, Seattle, November 16, 1961

In the wake of all the media attention being given to Alex Jones, Kennedys and King looks back to 2010 when CTKA ran a series of very critical essays concerning his extremely questionable treatment of the JFK case.

- Jim Garrison: The Beat Goes On Written by James DiEugenioWritten on Wednesday, 12 September 2018 22:05 Read more...
In response to a recent article which he characterizes as “a compendium of every MSM caricature of Garrison and his Kennedy case that one can imagine”, Jim DiEugenio revisits the New Orleans DA's career and his JFK case, and what the ARRB and subsequent research has revealed about it.
- Robert A. Wagner, The Assassination of JFK: Perspectives Half A Century Later Written by David MantikWritten on Wednesday, 05 September 2018 21:36 Read more...
Dr. Mantik states: “It is unique for me to write a second review, but too much remained unsaid after the first review. Wagner’s book clearly required more attention, especially since his profound mistakes are so often duplicated by the unenlightened mainstream media.”

- Ken Silverstein and Jeffrey St. Clair Get Counterpunched Written by James DiEugenioWritten on Tuesday, 14 August 2018 22:05 Read more...
What happens when the Left abandons its concern for such things as accuracy, morality and fact-based writing? What does one call such reporting then? Does it then not become—for whatever reason—another form of propaganda? Jim DiEugenio once again blasts Counterpunch for its pig-headed blind spot concerning the Kennedys.
