JFK: Destiny Betrayed

For those who don't know, this is the 4 hour expanded edition of JFK Revisited: Through the Looking Glass. Much of the same aspects of the assassination are discussed here, just in more detail. There are also some that weren't mentioned in Revisited. Such as the Harper Fragment and Kennedy's foreign policy with Africa. However, while Revisited was a more appropriate length, and flowed better, this version has more issues. Mostly the structure and editing. Because it cuts back and forth between topics that don't connect and aren't relevant to the assassination. Mostly Kennedy's foreign policy. As someone who's studied the assassination for 8 years, I was let down by this. To be clear, I don't think this version is awful. Far from it. But it has more issues than JFK Revisited. Though that version is much easier for the average viewer to understand. This is version goes into far more detail.

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.

If you're not willing to read the original compliance about the Warner report, then you are never going to know the truth. Bobby Kennedy and Jackie Kennedy both knew that John was assassinated by his enemies. Robert F Kennedy immediately contact the CIA and ask them if they were responsible. Of course they denied it but Bobby knew who these people were Jackie knew as well. LBJ himself believed it was a conspiracy. This documentary has the most proof of any documentary now. Why did all the witnesses who heard the shots coming from the grassy know not get called to testify in front of the warrant commission? Did you know that the people several people on the Warren commission were not happy about the final product? If you're not going to take it seriously you can continue and believe what our government wanted you to believe from the beginning. And that goes for National Geographic and biography as well. They are just being paid to tell the story that is most absurd. It takes a lot to run a government and there was never a more volatile time than the 60s. If you don't understand all of the responsibilities of being a president this is a good chance for you to find out. The rogue elements like Allen Dulles and CIA personell and all of their connections operations that they developed during World War II continued after the war and became very independent to the point that they were betraying JFK. JFK fired them and they wanted revenge. This is just the basic outline. It's very clear step-by-step starting with the actual members of the Warren commission report who are just satisfied with it and it would not support it after it was released and subsequent investigations that step-by-step uncovered the majority of the cover-up. This is the top documentary on the subject. Once the rest of the documents are released it'll be 100% conclusive about the massive cover-up. Thank you Oliver Stone for your continued great work.

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......

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!!
