The Assassination of John F Kennedy

The JFK assassination is said to be done by only one person, but this essay will tell you that it is wrong. It is said the Oswald is the sole sniper that killed the president. Well, Oswald did shot the gun, but he did not kill the President, someone else worked with Oswald on this assassination. In this court case, Oswald and Oswald alone was proven guilty for killing the President. Oswald had gotten killed later from a gunshot before he went to prison. In the 1963 controversial court case of JFK assassination, the guilty verdict incorrectly prosecuted only Lee Harvey Oswald because of the direction of the bullet, the Grassy Knoll, and the CIA involvement.

Who killed John Fitzgerald Kennedy, the 35th President of the United States of America? We, the people, may never know the actual truth, but I am here to tell you what I believe happened on November 22nd, 1963. Many people believe that Lee Harvey Oswald acted solely in the assassination of JFK, but I have to believe that there were more people than him involved into the assassination plan and it is much more deeply planned than a solo mission. Although I can’t pinpoint exactly who else was involved, there are quite a few things to support my belief that this assassination was not carried out single handedly such as the umbrella man, the “Grassy Knoll”, the Mob, Castro’s planned revenge,and the CIA. These theories make me believe in general that Oswald did not act alone, and it may be much deeper than any United States citizen had expected.

Other sources believe differently. Oswald had a Soviet wife, and the United States was not exactly friendly with the Russians at the time (“Kennedy Assassinated”). Some believe that he could have killed Kennedy because of his Soviet beliefs (Bradford). It is hard to justify Oswald’s reasoning to murdering Kennedy because before he could properly answer this question, he was already dead. However, other sources believe that Oswald was not a lone gunman. It has been noticed that eight out of ten Americans believe there was more than one gunman. ("Kennedy Assassination")

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.

The assassination of John F. Kennedy is one of the most controversial and debated topics in American History. JFK was one of the most beloved presidents of our time. One article of his death wrote, "The day the country cried". Unlike previous presidential assassinations, the JFK assassination is one that is filled the conspiracy theories. Such theories include a Government cover-up, Mafia influence and Cuban President Fidel Castro. The idea of a lone mind, Lee Harvey Oswald, plotting to kill President Kennedy is too simple. In the eyes of scholars there is simply no way that Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone. Even with the growing number of bogus theories, there are a number of logical theories that do hold water. In this paper I will discuss

A brief history of the investigations of the JFK murder is required to be able to understand the timeline of events. On November 22, 1963 John F Kennedy was assassinated. Seven days later, Lyndon B Johnson authorized the Warren Commision to perform an investigation of JFK’s murder. After about a year of investigation, the commission determined that Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone in killing the president; however, this lead to many conspiracy theories about JFK’s death. One popular theory,

On November 22, 1963 United States President John F. Kennedy was shot and killed in Dallas Texas. In September 1964 the Warren Commission, appointed by President Lyndon B. Johnson, presented an official report documenting the details of the assassination. This report concluded that Kennedy was killed by a man named Lee Harvey Oswald, and that Oswald acted alone. Ever since then there has been speculation concerning the validity of the Warren Commission. For over fifty years conspiracy theorists have been uncovering the “truth” behind Kennedy’s assassination. These theories, however, are largely unfounded, and supported by no hard evidence. In contrast, the meticulously detailed Warren Report, available in the National Archives, provides countless pieces of closely analyzed evidence, all corroborating the same, controversial claim. Regardless of popular American disbelief, the fact remains that Lee Harvey Oswald is alone responsible for the assassination of John F. Kennedy, as described by the Warren Commission.

For nearly five decades, historians have debated over whether or not the John F. Kennedy assassination was from a lone gunman or as part of a bigger conspiracy cover-up. On November 22, 1963, President John F. Kennedy was shot as he paraded through Dallas, Texas. That same afternoon, Dallas police had arrested their suspect, Lee Harvey Oswald. Oswald, an itinerant ex-U.S. marine and self-described Marxist-Leninist, previously lived in the Soviet Union prior to his move back to the United States. However, within days of his arrest, Oswald was dead. Oswald was murdered by Jack Ruby on national television in the basement of a Dallas police station. Historians, through the years, have stated that Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone and for himself, while others have maintained that Kennedy was killed as part of a wider cover-up. The Warren Commission Report was established by Lyndon Johnson, Kennedy’s successor, to further investigate Kennedy’s assassination. After nearly a yearlong investigation, the commission, led by Chief Justice Earl Warren concluded that alleged gunman Lee Harvey Oswald had acted alone in assassinating America’s 35th President, and that there was no conspiracy, either domestic or international, involved. Despite its seemingly firm conclusions, the report proved controversial and failed to silence conspiracy theories surrounding the event. Historians have held dramatically different views about the

John F. Kennedy, the youngest elected and first catholic president was campaigning for a second term when he was assassinated in Dallas on November 22, 1963. The accused shooter Lee Harvey Oswald, was first arrested for killing a police officer at point blank. It was shortly after the shooting when he was arrested with a gun in his possession at a nearby movie theater. He was then later accused of killing President Kennedy. The evidence presents that there could be alternatives to the official account that was made about the accuser. Conspiracies suggest Oswald acted alone, was framed, or worked with an organization to commit this crime.

I think that this paragraph sums up the entire spirit of those who continue to research, write about, and study the John F. Kennedy assassination; it has come to phenomenal proportion over the last 36 years with over 2,000 books written on the subject and one Hollywood movie. The theories range from the bizarre such as retaliation from the aliens, to Elvis, to the official conclusion of the Warren Commission that Lee Harvey Oswald was the lone assassin. The most common of the conspiracy theories include, Castro, communist, mob, CIA, the North Vietnamese and others. Before we can even start to draw a conclusion on to who was behind the John F. Kennedy assassination we must first

Was Oswald innocent in his work of killing President John F. Kennedy? Was he the lone assassin? Or was he part of a larger conspiracy? Evidence proves that Lee Oswald was part of a larger conspiracy. Not only was Oswald guilty of handling a gun and possibly assassinating Kennedy, there was also Jack Ruby, Christian David, and the grassy knoll to think about.

Oswald was part of a large conspiracy theory this is because of what the evidence shown in the text called “Mysteries in American HIstory” for all the theories told on the JFK assassination it wouldn’t make since for Oswald to be a lone assassin or innocent because of these reasons. Oswald was found in the lunchroom of the building where the gunshots were fired, the building was Texas School Book Depository, this is where Oswald worked. The gunshots were fired from the 6th floor while Oswald was on the 2nd floor eating his lunch to see that he was the only one found in the building, it’s physically impossible to go up to the 6th floor shooting a relief, going back down to the 2nd floor sitting in the lunchroom and eating lunch peacefully without

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. Despite the few good things that came out of that year, much of 1968 was dedicated to rebuilding the country, tragedy after tragedy. The assassination of Robert F. Kennedy, involvement in the Vietnam War, and escalating civil rights movements are a few of the quintessential events that contributed to

I think that Oswald is part of a larger conspiracy theory. I believe this for many reasons that will explain to you, my first supporting reason is that the gunshot did come form the building Oswald was working in at the time, but Oswald was seen eating lunch at the time of the gunshot policemen entered the building and was seen in the same place, but when the gun was fired he just sat there like he had heard nothing. Jack Ruby the man who assassinated Oswald had met with Oswald two weeks before Kennedy was assassinated. Oswald left his money and his wedding ring with his family, this is one reason why I think Oswald was part of the scheme to assassin Kennedy, but I don't think he was the only one involved another reason I assume this is because

Many conspiracy theories have tried to explain who was responsible for Kennedy’s murder and some have cited the involvement of the USSR, FBI, CIA and Cuba among others. The death of Kennedy remains a mystery despite numerous investigations which have since been carried. There have been no conclusive prove that Oswald murdered the president and even if he did, people still do not believe that he acted alone as reported by the Warren Commission.
