Fletcher Prouty had something different to say....
Prouty became a nutcase in his senior years. Is what he thought years ago, in his senility, what YOU think is the TRUTH????
Note the things he said/believed from the article about him in Wikipedia:
As a critic of the CIA, Prouty pointed out its influence in global matters, outside the realm of U.S. congressional and government oversight. His works detail the formation and development of the CIA, the origins of the Cold War, the U-2 incident, the Vietnam War, and the John F. Kennedy assassination. Prouty has written that
he believes Kennedy's assassination was a coup d'etat, and that
there is a secret, global "power elite" at work to direct world events.
Prouty subscribed to the theory that oil is not derived from fossils but from carbon deposits deep within the Earth (abiogenic petroleum origin theory).
Prouty said that "
it would not surprise me if this was a Secret Team operation" in response to the death of Princess Diana.
Prouty asserted that World War II could easily have been concluded with neither the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki nor the invasion of Japan whose obviation was the ostensible justification for those bombings.
Prouty presented "a quartet of
the greatest propaganda schemes ever put forth by man" that
included Darwin's theory of evolution and Heisenberg's uncertainty principle.
While working for the Church of Scientology, Prouty told Scientology leaders that L. Ron Hubbard's military discharge papers were "sheep dipped," meaning two sets of government records were created documenting Hubbard's service. The claim came to light when a Lawrence Wright expose' on the subject revealed that official government documents contained no mention of any injury suffered by Hubbard during his service, injuries Hubbard claimed were later healed through Dianetics. Prouty's assertion is of particular importance to Scientologists; had there been no injury to Hubbard, a cure of such injuries by use of Dianetics would have been impossible, and thus the foundational claim of Scientology would be undermined.
