JFK Assassination

President Kennedy’s assassination is one of America’s most fascinating and infamous conspiracies. Though we still do not know who is actually responsible, evidence points towards the communistic Cubans as being the killers of our nation’s young president. Even Lyndon B. Johnson, the President inaugurated after Kennedy’s death said, “I’ll tell you something about Kennedy’s murder that will rock you…Kennedy was trying to get Castro, but Castro got to him first.” President Kennedy’s mysterious assassination can be revealed through the political assassin Herminio Diaz Garcia, the German film Rendezvous with Death and the Cuban mobster Santo Trafficante’s allegations as these prove the Cubans were the ones responsible for the theft of President

Due to secret Cuban operations, the CIA had both a motive and means to kill John F Kennedy. Throughout most of JFK’s presidency, he was highly critical of the CIA; however, it was not always this way. JFK had been in support of CIA operations in Cuba until, according to MaryFerrell.org, “This changed with the ill-fated Bay of Pigs invasion of Cuba, inherited from the Eisenhower administration. Kennedy accepted responsibility publicly, but privately blamed the CIA and obtained the resignation of longtime Director Allen Dulles and others. He also implemented NSAM 55, transferring control of paramilitary operations to the Defense Dept”(MaryFerrell.org). This was not only the start of poor relations between JFK and the CIA, but triggered many CIA personnel to blame JFK privately for their failure. Leaving many CIA officers very

The CIA’s involvement in the killing of JFK is one of the popular theories put forward by conspiracy theorists. President Kennedy was said to have told an official in his administration, “I want to splinter the CIA into a thousand pieces and scatter it to the winds” (McGovern, 2013, para. 3). Many of the individuals who disliked Kennedy believed he was the reason for the failed Bay of Pigs invasion in 1961. They also believed that he would reduce the size of the military industrial complex and that he was not going after communism hard enough. The CIA was involved

The day November 22, 1963, in Dallas, Texas, would soon become known as a tragic day in US history. John F Kennedy, the 35th president of the United States, had been drumming up support for the upcoming election. Tragically, he was brutally gunned down by Lee Harvey Oswald. At first glance, this assassination seems like a simple murder. A communist defector simply was angry with JFK and decided to kill him. Many people have failed to notice, however, that the CIA not only had motive to kill JFK, but they also attempted to cover up many details about Lee Harvey Oswald, and JFK in general. If the general populus continues to believe what the CIA wants them to, we will never understand who truly was responsible for his death. The CIA played a large role in John F Kennedy’s death because of the CIA’s motive to kill him, the CIA coverups in the investigation following his death, and promising unfollowed leads that the investigators have ignored.

Two days after the JFK assassination, the official suspect, Lee Harvey Oswald, was shot dead by Jack Ruby, a Dallas strip club owner. Oswald’s famous remark that “I’m just a patsy” (Warren Commission Hearings, vol.20, p.366) inevitably led to suspicions that his murder was a convenient execution.

On the 20th of January 1961, the United States of America elected their 35th President, John Fitzgerald Kennedy. However, two years later, he was assassinated. The assassin, Lee Harvey Oswald was arrested 70 minutes after the assassination. There have been numerous debates over the last 55 years regarding this incident. Many people claim there is a conspiracy behind the case, allowing various conspiracy theories to emerge over the years. One specific theory is about how the mafia was involved with JFK’s assassination.

Established Politico writer, Philip Shenon, in his article on the assassination of John F. Kennedy, distinguishes the CIA had further involvement with the assassination than they would like us to believe. Shenon’s purpose is to analyze the possibility that the CIA director, John McCone, hid agency secrets that covered up facts of the assassination. He applies a passionate tone in order to offer an explanation to his fellow conspiracy theorists.

forces to participate in the army's Bay of Pigs invasion, which left thousands killed or imprisoned by the Castro regime, and therefore they assassinated him. Also, in the aftermath of the Cuban missile crisis it was widely believed Kennedy guaranteed the Russians that Cuba would be left untouched in return for a withdrawal of Soviet missiles from the island, though the Cuban exiles were not consulted. These men had Kennedy assassinated, and left Oswald, who was somehow duped into following them, as the patsy. This is most likely the weakest theory. While the exiles had the means and reason to kill Kennedy, and little to lose, it seems impossible that they could have escaped the police, covered up their role, and arranged for Ruby to silence Oswald.

The incident of JFK assassination is one of the biggest events in the United States of America, and so many of myths and theories are discussed and examined by tons of people who are professional and amateur in any kinds of fields. Even if the Warren Commission adjudicated the JFK assassination was done by only Lee Harvey Oswald, there are significant amount of eyewitnesses that we cannot just ignore are testified and mentioned something about the second sniper which make the people believe that the theory of Gracy Knoll is very logical and beliebable. Still now, almost all people who are interested in the JFK assassination think and assume that there was a second sniper, and the second sniper shot President Kennedy’s head and killed.

The shot seen across the country. The assassination of JFK still stands today as one of the most shocking events in American history. Its had a larger impact because of the fact that it was on national television and because of its graphic nature. Since we will never know the true motive of Lee Harvey Oswald, the only thing that we could do is make our own assumptions. That is what we’ve done, which have only made things more difficult for us to grasp and have created more conspiracy theories. I will get into the immediate effects that his actions caused such as the Warren Commission and what the report said and did. Mystery still surrounds this whole event because he was killed before he could even go on trial for his murders. That’s also what ties in Jack Ruby to a conspiracy because killing Oswald, made it look like he was trying to hide something. This event has a lot of moving parts, especially with all of the different conspiracy theories. I wasn’t all that familiar with the details of the assassination, but after gathering all of the information and reading about all the conspiracy theories, they all seem to be real possibilities. All of the theories do seem a little far-fetched, but they all have some good evidence to support it. All I can say is that learning about this assassination has certainly made me think. I will explain who John F. Kennedy was, what he stood for, and what he accomplished during his presidency. Also about Lee Harvey Oswald and what could have

The unrest of the 1960s reached a boiling point in 1968, a year that can be considered the most turbulent year in American history. The tumultuous events that took place in 1968 effectively transformed the face of the nation in every aspect; economically, socially, and politically. Failed military tactics, assassinations, and violent civil rights movements were the defining characteristics of 1968.
