1. I think Reagan wanted Lennon dead.
How could Reagan's presidency survive politically with an articulate, super popular, laser-sharp critic like Lennon alive and speaking his mind about the state of the country and the world?

Reagan had no problem stealing the election from Carter, cutting a back door deal for the hostages in Iran before Reagan assumed office. I don't think Reagan would have any problem looking the other way while a hit was arranged on Lennon. Remember the Reagan crimes with Iran-Contra.


btw I did watch this clip on youtube. I think it is well done. It is also very touching how the children surround and follow Lennon.

2. it's a really touching video,isn't it?
I can't say if it was Reagan, per se, but it sure as hell wasn't another "lone nut". If you've seen "The US vs John Lennon", it's obvious he was an enemy of the reich wing. aside from that angle
also, there's some odd stuff about the doorman on duty that night, Jose Perdomo. He was an anti-Castro cuban involved in the CIA.

3. Less Reagan, more Bush.
Reagan was less of a figurehead than Bush 2 was, but he was a figurehead nonetheless. Poppy Bush and the invisible people around him were the perpetrators. Remember, Chapman was a BUSH friend, not a Reagan friend.

4. Chapman worked in Lebanon
for the CIA

He was an easy sleeper agent for them to manipulate.

Look at the connections of his family to Reagan and Bush

8. I'd like to learn more about this
Do you have a suggestion for a good place to start?

I was born well after the Beatles, but I've always appreciated their music and recently found myself searching out their albums and interviews. Just fascinating.

11. All roads lead to Rome-or the CIA-or Poppy Bush?
Who Authorized
The Assassination
Of John Lennon?

by Mark R. Elsis, Lovearth.net, December 8, 2002

http://www.john-lennon.net/whoauthorizedtheassassinationofjohnlennon.htm
"It took me almost 22 years to figure out who most likely authorized the assassination of John Lennon, the greatest singer songwriter and the most influential political artist of our time. I believe it could have been the CIA that manipulated the assassin of John Winston Lennon, but more likely, I believe a new army of old school CIA, which was let go under President Carter, manipulated the assassin. I believe the assassin was a mind-control experiment, like all their old tricks of MKULTRA, only much more sophisticated. I believe their old boss authorized it. The person the CIA building in Washington D.C. is named after. I believe he was the same person who tried to assassinate President Ronald Wilson Reagan on his sixty-ninth day in office -- March 30, 1981. He is the person with the most to gain from both of these assassinations. So, who authorized the assassination of John Lennon? I believe it was the 41st President of the United States, George Herbert Walker Bush."

"Laurel and Hardy, that's John and Yoko.
And we stand a better chance under that guise…
Because all the serious people like
Martin Luther King and Kennedy and Gandhi got shot."
John Lennon

What really tied the Lennon thing together for me, aside from Chapman and World Vision, no trial( as usual with "patsies") "The US vs John Lennon" etc., was the doorman, ex CIA man Jose Perdomo

(Dec. 30, 2004) New information suggests the man tasked to protect John Lennon, on Dec. 8, 1980, may have in fact been his killer. Jose Perdomo is cited by multiple sources as the doorman on duty at Lennon's residence at the upscale Dakota apartment complex in Manhattan on the night the famous rock star was murdered. The following is a list of information I have collected about an individual named Jose Perdomo (also known as Jose Joaquin Sanjenis Perdomo) who sometimes uses the aliases, Joaquin Sanjenis and Sam Jenis:

1.Jose Perdomo was the doorman at the Dakota on Dec. 8, 1980, the night Lennon was killed.

2.Jose Perdomo was at the crime scene when the murder occurred.

3.Jose Perdomo asked accused assassin Mark David Chapman, immediately after the shooting, if he knew what he had just done. Chapman replied that he had just shot John Lennon.

4.Jose Perdomo told police Chapman was Lennon's assailant. One of the arresting officers, Peter Cullen, did not believe Chapman shot Lennon. Cullen believed the shooter was a handyman at the Dakota, but Perdomo convinced Cullen it was Chapman. Cullen thought Chapman "looked like a guy who worked in a bank."

5.Jose Perdomo was an anti-Castro Cuban exile. Perdomo and Chapman discussed the Bay of Pigs Invasion and JFK's assassination a few hours before Lennon was killed. This suggests Perdomo was a member of Brigade 2506 during the Bay of Pigs Invasion in 1961, a failed CIA operation to overthrow Fidel Castro.

6.Cuban Information Archives reveal a "Jose Joaquin Sanjenis Perdomo" (aliases: Joaquin Sanjenis, Sam Jenis) was a member of Brigade 2506 during the Bay of Pigs Invasion in 1961.

7.Joaquin Sanjenis worked closely with convicted Watergate burglar Frank Sturgis (deceased) for about ten years on the CIA's payroll.

8.Frank Sturgis claimed Joaquin Sanjenis died of natural causes in 1974; however, this was never confirmed by any other source. According to Sturgis, the CIA nurtured Sanjenis's anonymity and his family was not notified of his alleged death until after the funeral. Sanjenis may still be alive.

Jose Perdomo as he looked around 1980. This photograph was shown by NBC on a Dateline segment about John Lennon's murder, aired Nov. 18, 2005. The name of the segment was "The man who shot John Lennon





Jose Perdomo as he looked around 1960. This photograph was shown in the Cuban Information Archives website; however, there were multiple people listed as Jose Perdomo on that site. About a year ago, this author was advised by researcher James Richards (via email) that the stated multiple listings of Perdomo were actually the same person. Richards further claimed that this photo was in fact Jose Joaquin Sanjenis Perdomo, Cuban spy and professional assassin
