JFK Files - The Angleton Angle - Part One
CIA Mastermind Exposed In New JFK Files With Liaison Role To FBI And Israel
Welcome to the my series, The JFK Files - The Angleton Angle. This series represents a lifetime of research into the JFK assassination, beginning with a presentation I saw when I was fourteen by Mark Lane, author of Rush To Judgement, which completely changed my mind about the JFK Assassination.
In the last eight years, I have been fortunate to collaborate with people whose parents were in the JFK White House, which has deepened my research knowledge. The release of most of the JFK Files in March 2025 has helped tremendously verify and validate previous research. Enjoy The JFK Files—The Angleton Angle.
There is no question about it. Our researchers work on this topic over the last eight years was verified in Washington, DC yesterday, (April 1st, 2025), in a very documentary way, supporting our conclusions with additional documentary evidence.
🧠 Detailed Summary
In this investigative report, George Webb builds on the newly released JFK assassination files, emphasizing the role of James Jesus Angleton, the CIA's counterintelligence chief, and his covert liaison status with the FBI, known under the codename “Bureau Informant 100.”
Angleton, who maintained close ties to both Mossad and the British spy network, operated a series of highly secretive programs including “Bureau Informant 200” for domestic surveillance and the “false defector” program, through which Lee Harvey Oswald may have been inserted into the Soviet Union as an intelligence pawn.
Webb ties this intelligence framework into his own long-running collaboration with John OLoughlin, whose father worked in FBI Division Five, the Bureau’s counterintelligence unit responsible for CIA interfacing.
Through interviews, documents, and references in literature such as David Wise’s Cassidy’s Run, Webb and OLoughlin trace the continuity of surveillance-state operations from the JFK era to the modern-day Deep State, claiming these programs were the kernel of mass surveillance, unauthorized nuclear tech transfers to Israel, and even U.S. involvement in Cuban exile operations and possibly 9/11.
Key themes include the Oswald-as-false-defector theory, Angleton’s Mossad ties, alleged CIA complicity in nuclear leaks to Israel, and the use of Opa-Locka Air Base (used for Cuba ops and later linked to 9/11 pilot training).
The narrative argues that Angleton, Colby, Zakheim, and others were players in a much deeper geopolitical game that involved manipulating intelligence channels, compromising state secrets, and paving the way for modern surveillance and covert biowarfare strategies.
👤 People – Three-Sentence Profiles
🔍 James Jesus Angleton
Angleton was the long-time CIA Chief of Counterintelligence and key architect of the U.S. intelligence community’s most secretive programs. He served as the CIA's liaison to the FBI through a covert identity, Bureau Informant 100, and orchestrated controversial operations including mass surveillance of U.S. citizens and the false defector program. Webb implicates him in facilitating unauthorized intelligence transfers to Israel and possibly in obscuring the truth of JFK’s assassination.
🧑✈️ Lee Harvey Oswald
Oswald is the alleged assassin of JFK, but Webb supports the theory that he was actually a “false defector” sent into the Soviet Union under a CIA cover orchestrated by Angleton. His travel history, embassy contacts, and rapid visa processing all suggest state sponsorship rather than rogue action. His post-return integration into elite Dallas society by George DeMohrenshildt supports the theory that Oswald was being handled by U.S. intelligence.
🕵️ William Sullivan
Sullivan was the FBI’s Assistant Director and head of Division Five, responsible for domestic counterintelligence and CIA interfacing. He worked closely with Angleton and oversaw sensitive operations including surveillance of Soviet agents and the controversial false defector program. Webb suggests Sullivan’s division held many keys to understanding the real JFK assassination plot.
🧓 Thomas O’Loughlin
A former FBI agent who worked directly under William Sullivan in Division Five. He was involved in sensitive CIA-FBI coordination efforts and is referenced in David Wise’s book Cassidy’s Run for his role in the false defector operations. His son John OLoughlin has carried on research into the intersection of domestic surveillance and covert intelligence programs.
🧠 John OLoughlin
Independent researcher and co-investigator with George Webb, focused on uncovering CIA-FBI covert programs, especially those related to JFK’s assassination. He believes his father’s experiences in Division Five place him close to the heart of the Oswald false defector operation. Webb credits him as a long-time collaborator in exposing Deep State continuity through Cold War-era intelligence programs.
📚 David Wise
Author of Cassidy’s Run, a detailed exposé on the FBI’s false defector program during the Cold War. His book names Thomas O’Loughlin and details how intelligence agencies staged defector operations to manipulate Soviet counterintelligence. Wise’s work lends credibility to Webb and OLoughlin’s thesis that Oswald was a CIA-controlled asset.
🌍 Guy Burgess
British double agent and member of the infamous Cambridge Five, Burgess allegedly compromised Angleton and had deep ties to both Soviet and Western intelligence. Webb notes Burgess’s relationship with Angleton may have allowed Mossad or other actors to manipulate CIA operations, especially those involving Israel’s nuclear ambitions. Burgess is emblematic of how Cold War loyalties blurred among intelligence agencies.
☢️ George DeMohrenshildt
A Russian-American geologist with intelligence ties, DeMohrenshildt was Oswald’s handler upon his return from the USSR. He introduced Oswald to Dallas’s high society and intelligence-linked figures, further supporting the theory that Oswald was being groomed and monitored by U.S. intelligence. His suspicious death before being interviewed by the House Select Committee on Assassinations raises further questions.
🔐 Otto Otepka
Chief of Security at the U.S. State Department during JFK's presidency, Otepka clashed with Angleton and was punished for uncovering security irregularities. He attempted to investigate CIA overreach and misuse of security clearances, making him a key whistleblower figure. Webb implies Otepka had valuable insight into how Oswald’s defector status was manipulated.
🕵️ William Colby
CIA Director who fired James Angleton after discovering unauthorized domestic surveillance operations and rampant paranoia within Angleton’s shop. Colby was ousted soon after by George H.W. Bush, and later died under mysterious circumstances. Webb sees Colby’s fall as a turning point when CIA internal reform was crushed in favor of continued covert operations.
🏢 Organizations – Three-Sentence Profiles
🧠 CIA (Central Intelligence Agency)
The CIA is portrayed as the central actor in the web of Cold War and post-war intelligence conspiracies, with Angleton’s counterintelligence division playing the most opaque and unaccountable role. It coordinated false defector programs, liaised with foreign intelligence services like Mossad, and oversaw internal surveillance initiatives. Webb sees the agency’s internal factions as driving force behind JFK’s assassination cover-up and modern Deep State actions.
🕵️ FBI Division Five
This division handled counterintelligence and domestic surveillance, including interfacing with the CIA on sensitive cases such as Soviet infiltration and defector programs. Under William Sullivan, Division Five allegedly worked with Angleton on Oswald’s placement in the USSR and surveillance of political dissidents. Webb and OLoughlin believe this unit is the key to unraveling the JFK cover-up.
📦 Bureau Informant 100 / 200 (CIA-FBI Codenames)
These codenames refer to Angleton’s liaison operations with the FBI—100 representing himself, and 200 a surveillance initiative to monitor Soviet-American mail exchanges. These programs represent a dramatic escalation in domestic surveillance, setting precedents for programs like NSA’s PRISM. Webb argues these were early experiments in the surveillance state’s formation.
🇮🇱 Mossad
Israel’s intelligence agency was deeply connected to Angleton, who was their key U.S. liaison. Mossad reportedly gained access to U.S. nuclear secrets and other intelligence through Angleton’s network. Webb suggests Mossad used this relationship to advance Israel’s nuclear program at Dimona and manipulate U.S. intelligence priorities.
⚛️ NUMEC (Nuclear Materials and Equipment Corporation)
A Pennsylvania-based nuclear facility accused of diverting highly enriched uranium to Israel’s nuclear program at Dimona. Operated under the radar during the Cold War, NUMEC was connected to both U.S. mob figures and Israeli intelligence. Webb asserts the same people behind NUMEC also played roles in Cuba gun-running and other black ops.
✈️ Opa-Locka Air Base
Located in Florida, this former CIA base was used during the Bay of Pigs invasion for staging anti-Castro operations. Later, it became known as a training site for 9/11 hijackers on Boeing flight simulators, connecting decades of U.S. covert operations. Webb uses Opa-Locka to show continuity in U.S. black operations infrastructure.
🌐 Project for a New American Century (PNAC)
A neoconservative think tank that published Rebuilding America’s Defenses in 2000, advocating for U.S. military dominance and hinting at the need for a “new Pearl Harbor.” Co-authored by figures like Dov Zakheim, PNAC is often cited as ideological groundwork for post-9/11 foreign policy. Webb points to it as evidence that false flags and covert ops were long in planning.
Since the release of the JFK Files two days ago, the phrase “Bureau 100 Informant” has now become iconic in conspiracy research circles as the moniker for James Angleton, the dark CIA fixer and schemer at the end of so many JFK intrigues.
Angleton informed the FBI of his covert operations through a “control file” with the code “Bureau Informant 100”.
James Angleton was “Bureau Informant 100” for the FBI liaison operations with the CIA.
The CIA and Angleton’s interface with the FBI was FBI Washington Field Office Chief William Sullivan’s “Division Five,” which handled Soviet spying in the US.
I have covered “Division Five” of the FBI with John OLoughlin (no apostrophe) for seven years since his father, Thomas O’Loughlin, worked for William Sullivan at Division Five, and FBI Agent Thomas O’Loughlin was involved in interfacing with the CIA.
Both John and I focus on research centered on Division Five’s interface with the CIA as the key to solving the JFK murder mystery, and now the documentary evidence is confirming that initial judgment on our part.
Angleton instituted mass surveillance in America by opening all letters to and from the Soviet Union with a program called “Bureau Informant 200,” for instance, which had never been done before in the US.
Of particular interest to John and I was the “false defector” program that the FBI’s Division Five program ran in the US, wondering if Lee Harvey Oswald was a false defector inserted into the Soviet Union by Angleton.
Author David Wise mentions John’s father, Thomas O’Loughlin, several times in his book, “Cassidy’s Run,” about the false defector program.
Was Lee Harvey Oswald a “false defector” sent to the Soviet Union under the Angleton program like John Cassidy was in the FBI program here in the United States? That’s the key question.
Angleton was also the key liaison to the Israeli Intelligence Service, Mossad, for his time at the CIA, and there were reports that Mossad had compromised Angleton with British spy and Cambridge Five-member, Guy Burgess, with their relationship.
In my last post, I talked about Angleton and the CIA’s Richard Bissell leaking key facts about the U-2 flight paths over the Soviet Union, including the timing of such flights and altitudes, to usher in the era of satellite surveillance.
With the most recent document release, we are getting closer to unraveling the Oswald false defector mystery.
All eyes are now on the evidence of Angleton’s false defector program and Lee Harvey Oswald’s participation in it. The metadata of Oswald’s rapid visa approval in and out of the Soviet Union, along with uninhibited travel to Mexico and contacting the Soviet and Cuban Embassies six weeks before the Kennedy Assassination under the CIA’s watchful eyes, certainly supports this “false defector theory.”
Many also believe Angleton used the false defector program to leak nuclear secrets to Israel to advance their development of the atomic bomb.
We will continue to investigate this Angleton-Oswald connection in future substacks. One thing is for certain: our focus on Angleton and Division Five at the FBI is paying off.
Oswald’s immediate introduction in the insider circles of Dallas high society by George DeMohrenshildt is more metadata that Oswald was State Sponsored.
We have also looked into US State Department Office of Security Chief Otto Otepka and his interactions with JFK, RFK, and James Angleton.
I lived on the island where William Colby met his demise after being replaced by George Bush at the CIA. Colby fired Angleton and was almost immediately ousted from the CIA.
Notes -
The same mobsters who stole highly enriched uranium from the NUMEC Shippingport, PA reactor for Israel’s Dimona nuclear plant ran guns to Cuba for Meyer Lansky.
And the CIA used an old air base in Opa-Locka, Florida, for the invasion of Cuba, which later had 9/11 hijackers train on Boeing flight simulators a few steps away.
Have you never read Dr Mary's Monkey or Lee and Me or The Reporter Who Knew Too Much? If not, I suggest you read them. They provide a lot of info tho not being primarily a JFK killing book. There is another about Marilyn Monroe and info about her death. No doubt she was MOULTRIE. But their is much more to the story.
I cannot confirm that McDuff worked for Sullivan. It is possible, but I have no way to say yes or no.
