Cold War in action

Reader comment on item: Still Blaming Conservatives for Lee Harvey Oswald

Submitted by PermReader (Russia), Nov 26, 2013 at 11:46

My,foreigner's impression from the films and commenters is the uncertainty and confusion of the official persons. This I think made it easy to blame conservatives by the mighty leftist propaganda(supported by the Soviets).Creators of conspiracy theories usually used this uncertainty for their constructions. The emphasize of the well-known facts of Osvald's actions before the assasination make the official Voice of America nervously ban the comment. Fear of the Soviets I think added to this confusion of the authorities.
