JFK: Destiny Betrayed

Always appreciated the original movie and the TRUTH it has always revealed. Even more evidence and factual reporting in these.four episodes cramed with real detail! Looking at the reviews on the internet I see. There are still the usual hacks that would attempt to undermine this series with the lone gunman rubbish held onto and crammed down our throats by those whose wish to hide the real truth that this was a well organised and planned act by people with evil and sinister motives who were never brought to so-called justice. This is a pattern that has been used to assasinate those that would bring about REAL change throughout history! A little known example is the assasination of Michael Collins in 1922 by the british secret service and its cohorts within Irish politics.(for those who want to know more read Commodore John Turis Englands Greatest spy and the Assasination of Michael Collins by S. M. Sigerson - contains lots of Factual evidence) The truth was clouded and obscured back then by hidden men in power and the Truth is still resisted to this day in much the same way as JFK. Don't forget his son was murdered under a cloud of false information in a plane that "mysteriously" crashed into the sea Watch Dark Legacy II. Remember the REAL TRUTH will always come out!!

One of Oliver Stone's most remarkable works. This four-episode documentary contains a great deal of information and it is a work of love and conviction. Over the decades, many researchers have independently contributed to unearth and unravel the complicated mess behind JFK's assassination. Stone's historical vision -which has matured over the years, along with his cinematic- here is backed by James DiEugenio's invaluable research on the subject. The result is a work which, not only brings valuable light into the mechanism behind the conspiracy, the assassination and the subsequent coverup, but which also reflects on the effects and consequences both culturally and politically for the US and the world.

It's unfortunate that the docuseries is not easily available on the more popular streaming platforms (with the exception of rent/buy in Amazon). It really should be seen and discussed by a wide public, particularly the younger generations.

"Destiny Betrayed" goes into startling detail built on the foundation of "JFK Revisited". There is a powerful coherence to the manner in which the film is structured in developing chapters and sub sections through the astonishing recounting of dozens of accounts of witness testimony and evidence that leaves one incontrovertibly with the understanding of how thorough, extensive, and calculated a cover up the Warren Commission was. One cannot come away after viewing with any other conclusion. Where the film" JFK" was long on reasonable speculation, "Destiny Betrayed" is the opposite, a compilation of a mountain of of precise and detailed evidence.

This cover up, and the complicity of the mainstream media over decades is one of the most shameful chapters in American history. One great takeaway from this incredible documentary for me is WHY the Warren Commission went to such extraordinary lengths to cover up the truth of more than one gunman. They were scared out of their minds where a true investigation might lead. One year removed from the Cuban Missile Crisis, if Castro or the Russians wee involved, their fear was it could lead to war. If it was an internal affair, it could tear the country apart. One can understand their desperation.

However now is not then. That this despicable act of national betrayal still stands is an abomination. That whoever was involved was allowed to get away with it is a national disgrace, one of the greatest in our history. At least Stone and DiEugenio have created an archive that can be accessed by those who have the desire for truth.

For as long as I remember, the assassination of JFK has both bothered and interested me. I've watched the docos and read a few books, but this 4-part expose was nothing short of extraordinary. The depth of new, untold facts leads the viewer down a path of lies, deception and undoubtable truths that, frankly, left me breathless, angry and at times, in tears. Brilliantly presented, often with Oliver Stone (Director, "JFK" 1991 blockbuster with Kevin Costner) interviewing many of the extremely reputable doctors, pathologists and investigators, it is truly a must-see series that not only reveals so many closely guarded secrets and anomalies, it's presented in such a way that many doubters would hang their heads in shame that they were never lead to believe the greatest lie the world has ever been told.

Viewers of Oliver Stone's 1991 polemical blockbuster all those years ago were left, like me, with a sense of something being a bit off but with no facts to get our teeth into. This miniseries blows the whole conspiracy theory wide open, for even the most conspiracy-jaded folk.

JFK- Destiny Betrayed: elegantly argued, historically contextualised, clinically put together. No other director is as persuasive as Oliver Stone and this docu-series sees him at the top of his game. Miss it at your very real peril. Freedom and democracy are at stake......
