Do you believe the Warren Commission findings and explanation of the JFK assassination on 11/22/63? Do you believe in the "lone gunman" theory? the "magic bullet" theory? No US agency had any previous knowledge or took any part in the assassination? What do you think the true story is on the JFK assassination...Warren Commission report or other? Explain if you like.

I have read many books on the subject written by several authors, and after reading those books I am convinced that JFK's assasination was a conspiracy. The Warren Commissionsown words cement that fact with the "lone gunman' and the 'majic bullet' theory. Let's start with the one piece of proof that was not in the hands of the FBI or others in government, and that was the Zapruder film. If you pick that film a part, frame by frame, it is clear by the movements of JFK, that he was shot by two bullets, two gunman. One may have been in the Book Depository and the other over the fence at the grassy knoll at Dealy Plaza. Other photos had surfaced in the years that followed the assasination that show smoke billowing from behind the fence. The testimony of many eyewitnesses at Dealy Plaza coberrated that fact even though many people 'ran for cover' or 'hit the ground' they could hear the direction from where shots were being fired. Now nack to the Warren Report again. The way this report lays out the timeline from the time of the assasination to the time his body goes to Bethesda Naval Hospital we find more inconsistencies, especialy from what the doctors at the Dallas hospital noted about JFK's body to what was shown in autopsy photos from Bethesda. Entrance and exit wounds don't jibe between the two sets of doctors, what his skull looked like, and a whole host of other issues. Enough rambling.
The motivation that I like to go with was Vietnam. It was apparant thet JFK wanted to get out of the war at some point in his second term. You see, there was still a lot of paranoia in the country at that time, with the Cold War and the 'dominoe effect' of countries becoming communist, many thought it was a curtain call for the US of A. Johnson, the vice president, toerated JFK and hated RFK. So he was motivated as well. When Johnnson is sworn in as president, the United States' policy on Vietnam shifts dramatically and our involvement escalates. Militarily speaking, the war was not only good for the Pentagon, it was good for big business. The equpment being made from Lookheed, Gruman, and other big names who supply helicopters and other expensive war machinery were out to make money!!
Some perspective: For many things described above, inus the assasination, are things any different today in the Iraq War than when we were in Vietnam? The motivation is somehow still there. Hmm?

The Warren Commission was a piece of Garbage which incited the conspiracy theorists even more. There is no way that the Italian rifle that Oswald supposedly used could have sent Kennedy reeling backwards as the Zegruda film shows. It could only have happened by getting hit from the front.

No, I believe there was another gun man, I am not sure they had any government connection but were merely part of the overall plot that had hired the orginal shooter. I still beelive it was another non USA government involved.

We will never find out the true story. Too many years have passed.

No I sure don't, that was a set up from the word go, and they will never convince me otherwise.

Why should I? They've lied to much to believe anything. I think it was Cuba.
