John F Kennedy Jfk Assassination Conspiracy

873 Words4 Pages

On November 22, 1963 tragedy struck the United States. The President of the United States, John F. Kennedy (JFK), had been assassinated in Dallas Texas. The assassin was a lone gunman by the name of Lee Harvey Oswald… or that’s what we are told. After the assassination theories began to emerge as to other reasons the president could have been assassinated. But the real question that arose was, could these conspiracies theories be true? With the many conspiracy theories revolving around the JFK assassination, many of the conspiracies make sense. The multiple gunmen conspiracy, Lyndon B. Johnson conspiracy, C.I.A conspiracy, and the Cuban government theory all have very valid points as to why they could be true. To Begin, the final story given …show more content…

This to many conspirators shows a downward trend in his shooting ability. Also Oswald's rifle was sub par and many conspirators believe his gun could not have performed as well as it was reported. In addition, eyewitnesses such as Nellie Connally (who was sitting in the presidential vehicle), stated that there were four shots fired and the one shot that hit her husband, Governor Connally (who was sitting in front of President Kennedy), was a different bullet then the one which penetrated JFK. Many also bring into account the angle each shot came from. With the snipers nest being behind Kennedy and to the left, the fatal shot to his head would have forced his head forwards and to the right; but in reality his head went back and to the left. This also supports the notion of the reality that there could have been more than one gunman. With this evidence, among others, some begin to see the flaws behind the Warren Commission’s decision and it was possible for there to be more than one …show more content…

Johnson, the Vice President to JFK, was behind the assassination. Now some may find this ludicrous but others find it plausible. Many believe Johnson had Kennedy killed because he felt threatened by the thought that Kennedy was going to remove Johnson from his 1964 election ticket. In order to retain his power he orchestrated the assassination in order to become president and hold his spot in office. Evidence shows that Johnson had close ties with big name American oil businessman, such as H. L. Hunt, and that these businessman paid for the assassination which would ultimately save them one-hundred million dollars in the American Oil Industry. Throughout history men have fought over power and this instance may not be too far off of this

    I think Lee Harvey Oswald was involved in a larger conspiracy. I Think this because there were multiple shooters and I don't think it was just him. Oswald might have been pushed to do it by the government or like the Russian government because J.F.K knew something and didn't want j.fk to tell. What I mean by pushed is he was forced like getting a bribe or getting threatened.

    According to the President’s Commission on the Assassination of Presidents John F. Kennedy, Lee Harvey Oswald did kill President Kennedy by himself. I have to agree with them because evidence shows that there was only one killer, which was Oswald. To this day, it still is a mystery whether Harvey was even the killer, but the evidence that was found all points to him. According to the Commission, they found no evidence that anyone assisted Oswald on the assassination (177). He was not involved with any group, persuaded or encouraged by any foreign government, he was not involved with any political party, was not associated with the FBI, and there was no relationship between Oswald and Oswald’s’ killer Jack Ruby (177).

    It’s the year 1976, the United States Senate has just called for a new inquiry into the infamous assassination of President John F. Kennedy, who was shot in 1963 during his own motorcade in Dallas, TX while running for re-election. The CIA along with the FBI were coaxed into releasing new documents on Lee Harvey Oswald, and individuals who had not given evidence previously were persuaded to come forward. Pieces of evidence such as sound recordings and photographs were being subjected to scientific research analysis using more modern equipment. In 1979 the House Select Committee on Assassinations, or (HCSA), finally came to a verdict that Lee Harvey Oswald shot three times at the president; one of which, hitting his head and killing him. It was also concluded that a fourth shot was taken from ‘the grassy knoll’, which was something that was contradicting to the statement given by the Warren Commission 16 years earlier.

    In order to help the media to “convince the public that Oswald is the real assassin,” the Warren Commission was obliged to describe in detail how Oswald, without assistance, was able to kill one man and injure two others. If any of these statements were contradicted by the balance of the evidence, Oswald could not have committed the crime alone. The Warren Commission attempted to deal with these constraints by devising what became known as the single–bullet theory. All three of their points have been proven to be almost impossible, the only real explanation is simple: there had to be a second
