Recap & Rebuttals Part 19 (Ep 86-89) Israel with Jefferson Morley

About this episode

This episode revisits claims about Israel's involvement in JFK's assassination with guest Jefferson Morley, focusing on James Angleton's connections and the evidence surrounding the event.

We recently completed a four-part series examining whether Israel played a role in the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. In this episode, we revisit the strongest claims, examine the weakest links, and discuss what the evidence actually shows. Joining me is former Washington Post reporter and leading JFK researcher Jefferson Morley, author of The Ghost , the definitive biography of CIA counterintelligence chief James Angleton. We take a deeper look at Angleton’s close relationship with Israeli intelligence, his role in Israel’s nuclear development during the Kennedy administration, and whether any of that connects in a meaningful way to November 22, 1963. We also address rebuttals, counterarguments, and what still remains unresolved. If you’re following the Israel series, this conversation is essential. And if you’re new to Solving JFK, this episode offers a focused deep dive into James Angleton, Israel, and the broader intelligence landscape surrounding the assassination.
