Lying to a congressional body is a serious criminal offense. Lying to a congressional body during an investigation concerning the murder of a sitting president is an extremely serious offense and it is surprising to see attempts to downplay or trivialize the issue.

At no point, in the videos or in this discussion have any accusations been made against any CIA agent or officer for the murder of JFK. That is your interpretation. Rather, the point being made is that a biography of the accused assassin was put together by the Warren Commission which specifically indicated that there was no relationship between Oswald and intelligence agencies of the US government - and that determination is expressly untrue. Senator Schweicker of the Church Committee said directly: "the fingerprints of intelligence are all over Oswald".

Intelligent and careful researchers have sifted through the information since the mandated AARB releases and filled in a lot of the picture. Authors such as Bugliosi, who offer prosecutor's briefs, take the Warren Commission at its word on this issue and so refuse to look closely at the information and encourage their readers to turn the same blind eye. You will eventually demand that Oswald's secret agent ID card be produced and without it any talk is useless, but that will be the demand of someone who doesn't know what he's talking about.

The point is not that the CIA killed JFK - the point is that the intelligence agencies lied to conceal their relationships with Oswald and that the official biography is BS.
