Essay on The Mystery of the JFK Assassination

Hawthorne’s The Scarlet Letter conveys the war between passion and responsibility, and how it concerns moral duty. Conflicts which Reverend Dimmesdale faces show readers how difficult it can be to come forward and reveal your sins. The circumstances which victimized Dimmesdale made it harder for him to accept responsibility publicly, which is the foundation of much of this novel. Hawthorne uses Dimmesdale’s character to convey the true struggle between passion and responsibility in The Scarlet Letter. While Dimmesdale yearned to face his sins, his passion overpowered him and took over the

However Castro found out about the plot, apparently through one of the Mafia bosses who was a Cuban sympathizer, Carlos Trafficante, and redirected it back at Kennedy. Another one of the mafia bosses also wanted to get back at Kennedy. Kennedy had won the presidential election with the mafia's help, and still his brother Robert, Attorney General at the time, was publicly prosecuting these same bosses as an effort to put down organized crime. It is believed that Trafficante redirected the Cuban exiles to accompany Oswald in Dallas. The third is the amount of government cover-ups that arose from the assassination. One year earlier Kennedy had made a secret pack with Russia that he would not interfere with the Cuban government. But Kennedy broke this pack by plotting to assassinate Castro. It was believed that if Castro was assassinated then Russia would have retaliated with nuclear weapons. Therefore Kennedy had to be eliminated so that this would not have happened. His death virtually eliminated the threat of Soviet retaliation against the U.S. for his plot to remove Castro using Mafia resources. The murder of Oswald by Jack Ruby plays into this theory that the government was somehow involved. Why would Jack Ruby kill Oswald? I believe that Ruby killed Oswald so that he would not leak to the public that the assassination was a conspiracy. How would the American people take it? Our president was killed by our own

There are many theories that have been introduced to people surrounding the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. The assassination of the 35th President of the United States, John Fitzgerald Kennedy, occurred on November 22, 1963. Kennedy was fatally shot while riding in the presidential limousine through the streets of Dallas, Texas. The projectile that struck his head shattered the right side of his skull. During an interview with the Detroit Free Press (2013), a former secret service agent named Clint Hill recalled his actions moments after the shooting. He tells the reporter that he covered the presidents head because, "She didn't want anybody to see the condition he

I think that Oswald was part of a bigger conspiracy because no one believes that it was only Oswald that killed JFK because how can you fire a sniper four times in a row. The gun will move each time the gun is fired. But I don’t think it was Oswald because after you just killed someone how can you just be eating lunch as calmly wouldn’t he feel guilty for killing a man like JFK. I think that Oswald didn’t kill him because if he killed someone wouldn’t he try to get away. Honestly it had to more than him or it had to be another large conspiracy and he was apart of it. When he was arrested and was taken to the court I think that the guy that killed was part of the conspiracy with Oswald but he killed so that Oswald wouldn’t tell anyone about

When they were getting ready to take Oswald to the court trial Jack Ruby somehow got into the police station and he shot Oswald in front of all the police. When Ruby shot Oswald they were not able to push him for questions. When Ruby was in jail, he had died of cancer. They say that he knew that he had the cancer so he shot Oswald got put in jail and died himself. Could of Ruby hired Oswald to shoot the president and not get caught, but he failed his job so Ruby got into the jail and shot him.It was just a crime after a crime. On November 22, 1963 president John F, Kennedy was in a parade going through Dallas, Texas. He was shot and killed in his convertible people watched helplessly. The car rushed to the Parkland Hospital what has been just a few miles away. The doctors tried to save him, but they couldn't within hours the body was flown on Air Force One to the Navy Medical Center in Washington D.C. Americans mourned their president.If they were to to to stay on the first plan and went through main street, he would not of got

The mafia also had reason to want JFK dead or not to be president. Because “Attorney General Robert Kennedy and President John F. Kennedy waged the largest war against the mafia that America has ever seen. They especially targeted Louisiana-Texas godfather Carlos Marcello.” (Waldron 264). Robert Kennedy was trying to crack down on organized crime in court and in the press the week before the assassination Robert Kennedy had a series of stories published about how he was about to take down the mafia in Las Vegas (Waldron 264). Carlos Marcello told two of his closest associates that he had JFK killed and that he was glad he did but one of those associates was an undercover FBI informant. The FBI informant also took a polygraph test after he was released from prison and that polygraph test showed that Carlos Marcello had told him that he had JFK killed. (Waldron 61-62). “By early 1963, Carlos Marcello appears to have been working with well connected New Orleans private detective Guy Banister and pilot David Ferrie to set up Lee Harvey Oswald in relation to JFK’s assassination (Waldron 167). Carlos Marcello had reasons to want John F. Kennedy dead and he also confessed to an undercover FBI informant that he had JFK assassinated. He also had a plan to be able to cover it up and pin it on Lee Harvey Oswald when he started working with a New Orleans private detective.

mob killed Kennedy in revenge and also to stop the attorney general's campaign ("Did the Mafia

Contrary to the Warren Commission’s findings, Lee Harvey Oswald, acting alone, did not kill President John F. Kennedy. There are several crucial areas of evidence, which prove Lee Harvey Oswald did not kill the president. Numerous eyewitness accounts show that the shots came from the direction of the grassy knoll (Jack Hill), and not from the Texas School Book Depositary. The number and timing of the bullets fired again prove that Oswald, acting alone, did not kill President Kennedy. Oswald also could not possibly have had the opportunity to shoot President Kennedy, and the rifle in question

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

Both JFK and Johnson were highly famous, yet controversial presidents. Elected in 1960 as the 35th president of the US, 43-year-old John F. Kennedy was the youngest man to run in office. As president, Kennedy endured to tense Cold War strains in Cuba, Vietnam and elsewhere. He additionally drove a reestablished drive for an open administration and in the long run gave government support to the developing social equality development. On November 22, 1963 JFK was assassinated in Dallas, Texas. His successor, Johnson, took over as president for a brief period of time. In spite of his noteworthy accomplishments in mainland US, Johnson's legacy was characterized by his inability to lead

Kennedy was only the fourth president to die by assassination in a nation that was less than 200 years old(Betsy).There are three theories that this essay will explore.Thyat the CIA played a part in planning the assassination another one is that Lee Harvey Oswald was a CIA agent at the time and the theory that Cuba was behind the assassination.In the history books and the knowledge in everybody's head is that Lee Harvey Oswald was a lone shooter, but in the rest of this essay you`ll see that there are many more possible versions for what happened.

When I asked from my classmate more about the Mexican education system , I found out not only both of systems have been similarly syllabus in academic subjects, but also in the items like Average age of teachers, teaching style, number of students in a class, and class atmosphere they are same. Although in non academic subjects, vacation, exam, and physical punishment they are totally different. In the other word, physical punishment is illegal. We don’t have music and dance in our activates, and in Iran education system before university you cannot find test

Jack Ruby, a nightclub owner in Dallas, murdered Lee Harvey Oswald as Oswald was being transferred to the county jail. Although Ruby has never been linked conclusively to the mafia, it is possible that the nature of his business required him to cross paths with underworld criminals. Ruby may have been told by a high ranking person in the mafia to kill Oswald so he couldn’t tell anything to the police.

killed(Sneed 456).Jack Ruby the mobster club owner refused to cooperate with investigators and denied to let anyone know why he really killed Oswald.Ruby later died in jail because of cancer and still left a big knot in the investigation of Kennedy’s assassination(JFK Assassination Reasearch material).

It was believed in the “Oswald lone shooting” theory that he shot one bullet. From educated background knowledge about rifles, the rifle believed to be used in the assassination might have been accurate enough to get the job done, but at the angle and height it would have been almost impossible to make the shot. That bullet was believed to have traveled from the sixth floor of the book depository on a downward slant. It had to be timed perfectly considering the target was moving at fourteen miles an hour. While this seems like a hard shot to make already, the bullet entered Kennedy's back and then moved upward on an apparent ricochet, out his throat and into John Connelly’s chest, where it created seven wounds all together (“JFK Assassination”). “There is no way that one bullet was shot. In the video Kennedy moves more than once” (Bradford). Many people have doubted the one bullet
