The Mystery of the JFK Assassination

Lincoln, Malcolm X, Franz Ferdinand, all murdered, all with a purpose, all with a confirmed killer. Why did these assassinations happen? What caused these people to feel the need to kill such powerful people? While we know who killed many, and most of people, who were assassinated while in powerful positions, we have no idea who really killed Kennedy. Though many theories surround his death, we have no real evidence to confirm a killer. Could it have been the work of a single person, a group of people, maybe radicals, or even a conspiracy?

As we all know, Oswald was the man who supposedly shot and killed JFK, the 35th president of the united states. But what if I told you that Oswald could have been in a larger conspiracy, and that is what we are going to talk about.

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")

There is a plethora of conspiracy theories regarding the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. They range from the incumbent of the former Soviet Union to organized crime.

Everyone knows about John F. Kennedy's assassination and everyone knows that it is still a mystery who exactly killed him. Today people still do think th think that Lee Harvey Oswald killed Kennedy. But I think Lee Harvey Oswald setup by someone. For example was Lee Harvey Oswald The only one in the building at a time. All of these questions are going to be unknown but still think about it, could there been.

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.

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.

November 24, just two days after the assassination of the president, Oswald was being transferred out of the Dallas police station where he had been interrogated. Oswald was shot and killed on live television by Jack Ruby, a Dallas nightclub owner with links to local organized crime bosses. Based on his curious recent history and political affiliations, Oswald was a believable assassin in the eyes of the American public, and his death at the hands of Ruby seemed to bring closure to the astonishing case (“Alternative”).

In The Week’s article, “the CIA, aliens and the Illuminati, those shots are continuing to reverberate across the US.” I believe the John F. Kennedy’s assassination was an inside job, the only problem is they’re so many variables, and so much controversy in that particular fragment of history; Politics, The Mafia, The Soviet Union, Possibly the CIA, our own government could all have had a hand in this tragic, confusing situation, hell you mine as well throw in the possibly of the Free masons committing assassination. Could it be possible that this was an inside job established from our own government to assassinate a president who was actually trying to help America, who had a different agenda then what the US government had planed? Or could this monstrosity be the result of from a rival super power, The Soviet Union? In this article it points out many possible theories and culprits to the assassination. I agree with the article’s assumption that Lee Harvey Oswald could have been a paid assassin. The question is who was writing his pay checks?

On November 29, 1963, our 35th President of the United States, John Fitzgerald Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas, Texas. A young and vigorous leader who was a victim of the fourth Presidential assassination in the history of a country. This assassination was known as a world tragedy, and a great lost to our nation. Many conspiracies were formed while the investigation of his assassination was undergoing, making his case unsolved. But with the many conspiracies, the assassination caused a lot of effect on our country over the years. Making the JFK assassination a remarkable case.

On November 22, 1963 President John Fitzgerald Kennedy arrived in Dallas to an excited crowd of people lining the streets hoping to get a glimpse of the President. At 12:30 in the afternoon, the President’s car made the last, fatal turn. As the car turned left onto Elm Street, past the Texas School Block Depository and headed down the slope that leads through Dealey Plaza, Governor Connally’s wife said, “Mr. President, You can’t say that Dallas doesn’t love you” (Report of the President's Commission on the Assassination of President Kennedy 48). Immediately after that, John Fitzgerald Kennedy, the thirty-fifth President of the United States was shot once in the neck and again in the head (Report of the President's Commission on the

Many witnesses of the shooting said they saw smoke coming from the grassy knoll, this caused speculations that the shooter was located to the right of Kennedy, this could be argued why Kennedy’s head went back from the backlash of the bullet. People who tuned into the assassination believed that there was a shooter from the Texas School Depository, then this came along and they all jumped from one shooter to multiple shooters, this connects to the other conspiracy theory of multiple shooters. Citizens who filmed the assassination released their film along with the Zapruder film, this was a huge advantage for the government. The grassy knoll was a highlight of these films, people discovered a silhouette that looked like a dog or a human, it was later called the “Black Dog Man”. People could argue this thing was the shooter because throughout the film this “thing” showed suspicious activity.

On Friday November 22, 1963 President John F. Kennedy was assassinated in the city of Dallas, Texas. Since then, many have speculated the truth behind the events of the Kennedy assassination. Although Lee Harvey Oswald was claimed to be the mastermind behind the horrific murder, many theorists still believe today that there is more to the story than the government is willing to admit.

The conspiracy that Oswald was the lone shooter is amongst many historians. Like David Corn, Max Holland also believes Oswald was responsible for Kennedy's death. Holland goes into detail about Oswald's interest in following what Fidel Castro had to say about the Cuban revolution. When Cuba became more hostile towards the U.S., Kennedy's alleged plot to kill Castro heightened and led Oswald to show his commitment to Castro. Holland explains that Oswald demonstrated twice that he was capable of inflicting violence among himself and several others to present to Castro he was a "friend of Cuba" and was "ready for anything." 8 Oswald even attempted to assassination a right-wing general, Edwin Walker, but failed.

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.
