John Fitzgerald Kennedy's Assassination

Kennedy was assassinated, his successor Lyndon Johnson established a commission to investigate Kennedy’s death which came to be known as the Warren Commission. The Warren Commission conducted a thorough and professional investigation into the responsibility of Lee Harvey Oswald for the assassination, and after a nearly yearlong investigation, the commission concluded that alleged gunman Lee Harvey Oswald had acted alone in assassinating JFK, and that there was no conspiracy involved. Because the commission had excused the possibility of a conspiracy, the Select Committee on Assassinations felt they had failed to adequately investigate the possibility of a conspiracy. However, it is unfair to blame the commission in their decision to ignore the idea of a conspiracy seeing as they did not receive all relevant information that was in the possession of other agencies and departments of the Government. Despite the commission's evidence based conclusion, the report proved controversial and failed to silence conspiracy theories surrounding the

The assassination of John F. Kennedy is said to be, as from the Warren report, a murder. The Warren report states that a man, Lee Harvey Oswald, fired 3 shots from the 6th floor of the Texas Book State Depository building. One missed the President’s motorcade completely; another hit President Kennedy in the neck, and the last hit him in the head, which was later said after an autopsy, to be the cause of death.

Rumours suggested that Jack Ruby had been involved not only in the cover–up but also in President Kennedy’s assassination itself. The Warren Commission attempted to show that these stories were mistaken and that Ruby’s murder of Oswald, just like Oswald’s murder of Kennedy, was simply the act of a deranged lone gunman (Warren Report, pp.333–373). The House Select Committee on Assassinations was more critical: HSCA Report, appendix vol.9, pp.127–148; see also What Did the Warren Commission Say about Jack Ruby?.

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.

The public must be satisfied that Oswald was the assassin; that he did not have confederates who are still at large; and that evidence was such that he would have been convicted at trial. Unfortunately the facts on Oswald seem about too pat- too obvious (Marxist, Cuba, Russian wife, etc.) The Dallas police have put out statements on the Communist conspiracy theory and it was they who were in charge when he was shot and thus silenced (“The JFK Assassination” 2.)

On the 22nd of November 1963, the 35th president of the United States of America, John Fitzgerald Kennedy, was assassinated in Dallas, Texas.

Kennedy the thirty-fifth president of the United States of America. Oswald had a job in the Texas school book depository building in Dallas, he had a clear view from the sixth story of the motorcade Kennedy was riding in. Oswald also had the military training from the Marine Corps and could have easily taken those three shots at a moving target and get a headshot in eight and a half seconds. In the military you are taught how to shoot fast and accurately under a lot of pressure and stress. The KGB would not have wanted to do this because it was at the height of the Cold War and would have started a nuclear war and neither the Soviet Union of the United States wanted this to happen. The CIA would not have done it either because they are a trusted institution in our government and are supposed to protect our nation and its people. They would have known if anyone else was involved like the KGB or any other secret or foreign agency. Lyndon B. Johnson would not have wanted to do this at all either. He was just really easy to blame because he was next in line for the presidency because he was the vice president. This is the proof that proves that it was Lee Harvey Oswald himself that carried this assassination that changed history forever out on his
