Reasons For The Assassination Of President Kennedy

On November 22, 1963, President John F. Kennedy was assassinated in his limousine while traveling through downtown Dallas, Texas. Immediately after the president’s death was announced, people wondered who killed their beloved president. Days after the Warren Commission was released to the public, conspiracy theories were formed of what really happened: the “Umbrella Man” did it, Lee Harvey Oswald was aiming for John Connally but miss and killed JFK by accident, and some ridiculous theories such as the Mafia killed the president. Despite the various conspiracy theories formed, logical or absurd, research proves the CIA is held responsible for assassinating President John F. Kennedy. There were many reasons how and why the Central Intelligence Agency murdered the president. An article written by Joe Lanier claims the CIA “wanted JFK dead because he had threatened to get rid of their corrupt Nazi clandestine organization and shred it into a thousand pieces” (Who Killed John F. Kennedy?). Lyndon B. Johnson was working with the CIA and hired Cord Meyer, CIA Assassin Master to put together the death squad to murder JFK. Cord Meyer and the president did not get

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

Widely regarded as one of the most beloved presidents, John F. Kennedy is still remembered to this day. President Kennedy was involved in one of the most controversial topics in the history of the United States. Although a few presidents prior to JFK were unfortunately assassinated, JFK’s assassination is the one most discussed. Although many Americans know that Lee Harvey Oswald was the man that shot President Kennedy, no one knows what motivated him to do so. The FBI concluded that he committed the crime on his own will without ties to any groups. However, not everyone believes what the FBI tells them. One of the more popular theories regarding the President’s assassination is that CIA had plotted to kill him. In an online article, “The CIA and the JFK Assassination” written by the Mary Ferrell Foundation, the author of the article discusses the theory of the CIA killing the President and how the evidence supports the theory. This conspiracy theory garners a specific audience as the text targets those who are in fear of national security, have beliefs in Christianity, distrust the U.S. government, interested in socially significant events, and value knowing the truth.

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.

On Friday, November 22, 1963, in Dallas, Texas, John Kennedy hoped to gain support for the upcoming election. Kennedy, who was accompanied by his wife Jaqueline, Vice President Lyndon B. Johnson and Mrs. Johnson, Senator Ralph Yarborough of Texas, Governor John B. Connally, and Mrs. Connally was riding in an open car in a motorcade driving from Love Field airport to the Dallas Trade Mart (“Kennedy”). At 12:30 p.m. CST, President John Fitzgerald Kennedy was shot (“Kennedy”). The fearless John Fitzgerald "Jack" Kennedy seemed to know that death would eventually arrive at his doorstep, as it did. Although one shooter, Lee Harvey Oswald, was able to slay the president, questions still remain if he was the one and only shooter. Many unanswered

On Friday, November 22, 1963, while enroute to the Dallas airport, President John Fitzgearald Kennedy was fatally shot. ABC's newsanchor Walter Cronkite said that it would be "a day that will live in infamy." The reason that that fateful Friday is still talked about is the controversy surrounding the assassination. The official investigators determined that the president was killed by a lone gunman, but every single piece of evidence – from eye witnesses to forensic evidence – points to at 2 or more gunmen, and a conspiracy, possibly involving government officials. According to the Warren Commission Report : Report of President's Commission on the Assassination of President John F. Kennedy, published in 1964,

The night of April 14th, 1865, the audience of Ford’s Theatre anticipated to see a normal performance of “Our American Cousin.” Little did they know what would they experience that night would change the path of American history. One of the most tragic presidential assassinations took place. President Lincoln was the first president to be assassinated in US history. Lincoln’s assassination took many steps, planning, preparation, kill the president, and finally get away. This was the time of the civil war and the South had just surrendered at the Appotomax in Northern Virginia. The Confederacy hated Lincoln because the government proscribed slavery, so a group of men took the risk of murdering the sixteenth president: John Wilkes Booth, George

The most popular conspiracy theory revolving around the assassination, is the idea of the C.I.A. and the government’s involvement. After the Bay of Pigs invasion, President Kennedy was frustrated with the C.I.A. at the time and blamed the failure of the invasion on them. It is said that the former president admitted this resentment towards the C.I.A. when he stated he wanted to “splinter the C.I.A. in a thousand pieces and scatter it to the winds” (Novak).

Many consider Abraham Lincoln to be one of the greatest presidents of all time. He helped lead our nation through a terrible war, but was not rewarded very well for his actions. Lincoln was the first president to be murdered. The assassination of Abraham Lincoln was very complex, both in the planning and the execution.

Was Oswald a lone assassin, part of a larger conspiracy or was he innocent? The evidence in fact will support that he was in fact he may have been innocent.

On the Infamous day of April 4, 1968 Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated while

For many years Lee Harvey Oswald was thought to be a lone gunman in John F. Kennedy’s assassination, however, there's more to the story than meets the eye. There are many conspiracy theories related to the assassination, but as the subject is explored deeper, all the theories converge on Israel. The tension between John F. Kennedy and Israel cannot be overlooked. First, John F. Kennedy did not support Israel’s Zionist movement. Second, Kennedy’s pacifist policy against nuclear weapons was fracturing the income of Israel obtained from the wars, namely, the Vietnam War and Kennedy’s successor Lyndon B. Johnson made a drastic change in America’s policy toward Israel after the assassination, reversing it in favour of Israel. According to the aforementioned
