JFK Files

[Ricardo]

So Lee Harvey Oswald wasn't a lone nut out to make a name for himself.

Who could have possibly guessed?

Well he did say "I'm a Patsy".

I haven't seen much on this, I assume, apart from what you say above, there isn't a smoking gun, as such.

Some of the more credible conspiracy theory stuff I have seen suggested that it was a plot by the CIA, and they used the mafia to carry it out. It was a lot easier to carry out, and bury, sinister shit, pre internet.

There are photos of George Bush Snr in and around it, as he worked for the CIA at the time.

What is coming out now is that Oswald was known to the CIA and was probably an asset. We may never know all the facts but it's clear that the Warren Report only listened to evidence that fitted their pre conceived theories.

The whole "lone gunman" theory is plain daft though, ballistics all point to multiple shooters. And the convenience of the one and only suspect being killed before he could be tried is what fuelled the conspiracy theories. And rightly so.

There is an amusing spoof trend on Twitter that the real killer was Penelope Keith.

Yes, I'm convinced it must have been her

If you enjoy a conspiracy theory, this is a good watch. There is some good stuff, and there is some hokey stuff, but a lot of it entirely believable. Basically rich men rule the world and shape world events.

 

[Rock The Boat]

Kennedy upset two very powerful groups, chiefly over Cuba but also the 1960 election, the CIA and the Mob. They were angry enough to get rid of him.
