Who Is To Blame For Oswald's Assassination?

This paper will focus on the tragic assassination of America’s beloved 35th President John F. Kennedy. As we all know, Lee Harvey Oswald killed President Kennedy, but why, and did he work alone? This paper will investigate the facts and leave the reader with some of the conspiracy theories that exist regarding this topic. Does anyone really know the truth?

On November 22,1963,President Kennedy was in attendance at a Dallas parade.One of the biggest tragic moments happened in U.S. history before the naked eye.President John F. Kennedy was assassinated around 12:34 p.m.as he celebrated with the Dallas crowd to show admiration towards them and their city(Mintaglio 60).The suspected assassin Robert L. Oswald,a former U.S. marine,was afterward caught not long following the assassination in a near by theatre(Newman 56).Later to discover he himself was assassinated by Jack Ruby while he was being escorted publicly to the court room.A study of the John F.Kennedy assassination would include the conspiracy theories, the plans of the assassination ,and the alleged

Therefore, John F. Kennedy presumably was not expecting Lee Harvey Oswald to kill him. Although Lee Harvey Oswald may not have known JFK directly, the way Brutus knew Caesar; he was a part of the marines which meant he was part of an organization that was affiliated with the president. After Oswald became interested in communism, he joined the Soviet Union (Biography.com). According to Psychology Today, “It has been reported that, initially, Oswald, like most Americans, admired JFK. But when President Kennedy imposed the embargo against Cuba and faced down Nikita Kruschev during the Cuban missile crisis, he may have become in Oswald’s disturbed mind a demonic figure to be despised and exterminated” (Psychology

Oswald himself also had what appears to be curious ties to Cuba and Fidel Castro. In the months just prior to the President's assassination, Oswald was arrested in New Orleans for disturbing the peace while he was handing out pro-Castro leaflets. While in jail he was interviewed by the FBI as his own request.

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

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.

The shots boom in the Texas School Book Depository! President Kennedy was shot twice, once in the throat and then a few seconds later he was shot in the back of the head. Oswald was the killer, the reason he did it may never be known. Although many people believe that there were multiple assassins, Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone in the assassination.

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

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.

This investigation will answer the question: To what extent did Lee Harvey Oswald’s history predispose him to kill John F. Kennedy? To determine the extent to which childhood and previous jobs influenced Oswald to assassinate the President, the scope of the investigation will focus on Lee Harvey Oswald and his relationships with political groups. It will also examine Oswald’s youth and the actions of previous life events. Only secondary sources about the assassination will be used in this examination.

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”).

trigger. Oswald was just an easy mark to pin the crime on, he was set up, most likely by the CIA

I think he was framed. Here's what we know two week before the assassination Oswald went to Rudy Judy,s Club. Also people say they felt bullet pass there heads. They saw two men with smoke around them. One had a muzzle coming out of his jacket and the other one was disassembling a gun and putting in a toolbox. People said one was wearing a suit and a railroad worker outfit. Also the shots came from a different direction. Oswald gun was fould on the sixth floor and he was on the third.

The day of the assassination of Kennedy was very unlikeable. Kennedy also made the assassination more easier for the assioson. If Kennedy was more aware, The bubble top to the car would be on, and the motorcade could pick up speed, and if wife Jaclyn could wear not so bright clothes, maybe none of this would had happened.

But what Ruby didn’t know, was that the officers weren’t done interrogating Oswald, leaving them with many unanswered questions. Oswald’s motive is one of the bigger mysteries that comes to mind, as he constantly expressed to his family and friends that he admired Kennedy as a person and a politician. Many people over the years have theorized as to what Oswald's motive was, from being hired by the FBI, to his love for communism. But in the end the most plausible motive was that he did it to get his name in the history books, and I guess you could say that he succeeded, but only in death. Oswald's funeral was a few days after Kennedy’s but only his wife and mother
