It's been pretty well established that LHO was a communist and that he had contacts with the KGB. Contacts are proven but collusion is not. The KGB's own files DO prove that they attempted to fool the American public into believing it was a right-wing CIA conspiracy. And, when it comes to non-thinking Americans who trust anything Hollywood puts out, it ended up working!
Here is a link to the KGB files that were released to our government.
http://mcadams.posc.mu.edu/izvestia.txtThere is nothing in these documents that supports the statement that the "files DO prove they attempted to fool the American public into believing it was a right-wing CIA conspiracy". I would be interested in any other sources or information that you could cite as support of your allegation.
No question Oswald was under constant Soviet surveillance,and that his defector status was initially seen as a propaganda plus for the Russians. However, after they realized (as did most people who knew him)that Oswald was as nutty as squirrel sh*t,they cut him loose. Oswald described himself as a Marxist and a Leninist,but specifically denied being a Communist. These are three separate socio-political affiliations ,and are not interchangeable,although it is a common mistake to do so.
