In school last week, my history teacher taught us about the assasination of President Kennedy and how the Warren Commission came to the conclusion that Harvey Lee Oswald was the assassin. They did not really research in it as much as it should have been researched....

There are some who believe it was Lyndon B. Johnson....which is very strange to me.

There are documents on the assassination that are not supposed to be made avaliable to the public until the last Kennedy passes....their daughter I believe it is...Caroline Kennedy.

You obviously have a keen interest in history and JFK was a good leader from what we know although he did have affairs with such women as Marolyn Monro .It is said Lee Harvey Oswald was the assassin ,To be really honest with all the forensic evidence againt him it still may have been someone else I doubt Lyndon B. Johnson did it himself but he may have arranged it or someone who was hurt by his affairs .I doubt we will ever know the real truth as you would know the USA has many secrect services who work independent of each other and can cover their tracks well We see this sort of deception portrayed on television all the time so anything is possible in this case they needed someone to blame and the found him whether he did it I dont know I am not tottally convinced all it takes just one mad person to do something like this just look at the previous Pope they attempted to assainate him why just because he is a harmless old religous man .Anyway keep up the good work and hope this never happens again.

Personally, I believe it was the mafia responsible for his assassination. The mob hired Lee Harvey Oswald.
Joe Kennedy, JFK's father became very wealthy selling alcohol during the prohibition and many of his associates were in the mafia. When JFK became president and with his brother Robert Kennedy, they pursued the mob in the hopes of destroying the crime syndicate. The mob saw that as betrayal since Joe Kennedy made his family's fortune with their help. I also believe that Lee Harvey Oswald had an accomplice who was never caught.

It's very easy for us to look back and come up with a million conspiracy theories - but most of them hinge on very improbable coincidences and timing. They didn't have the tools and methods that we have now for forensics and autopsies, and the violent assassination of the President obviously was an unplanned for circumstance.

I do think it was Oswald and that he acted alone on the day. If you go to the book depository you can see that it is a fairly easy shot for a trained gunman(which Oswald was).

Many, including Oliver Stone like to make up facts and figures to support many theories. In Stones movie JFK he has fictional key characters and was actually sued for putting words into the mouths of still living people/witnesses. Yet people accepted his film as "the truth". But given the facts, it seems as if Oswald was actually the right man. And I don't think that there was more than one bullet - any emergency room doctor or army medic can tell you just how much damage and bouncing around a bullet can do in the human body. It was a head shot - also the sign of an experienced marksman = Oswald.

But it's done and that's that. People just want to understand the "why" of it all and to rewrite history. Thus the theories.

by the way - Lee Harvey Oswald got the rap for it - but -

I just found this jewel out two years ago -
approximately 5-6 weeks before Kennedy's death - he called in the chiefs from the Pentagon and said - let's wrap up Vietnam by the end of 1964 - and let's be out!
And then 6 weeks later - Johnson is President and the war escalates....Social Security is pulled from it's private fund into the General Budget where the Democratic Congress (House and Senate) can borrow BILLIONS - which have never been paid back.

Watch any game show network shows - the old What's My LIne?
Dorothy Kilgallen was a regular - and she interviewed Jack Ruby - before he died of cancer - Jack hated reporters - but loved that TV show - and had several 1-2 hour chat sessions with Dorothy. She came back to California and blabbed that she was going to blow the lid off the assasination case - and turned up dead in her bed??

LBJ had many connections in Washingotn, and there was voting fraud in his first election to politics. Yeah, I believe.

a million. Killed by using Oswald on my own. purely dumb human beings believe this one. 2. Killed by using Cubans and Soviet communists. they have the purpose from the Cuban missile disaster plus all of us comprehend there have been dissimilar shooters. concept isn't possible because of the fact the US government does no longer help conceal it up. 3. Killed by using Federal Reserve Banks. they have purpose because of the fact he had the US treasury print American money. it incredibly is the 1st and purely time everyone however the privatly owned and controlled FED banks have revealed US money contained in the final a hundred years. This concept can in good shape with a coverup because of the fact they have an infinite grant of money to pay human beings off and homicide witnesses. 4. Killed by using the Italian Mob. they have purpose because of the fact he and his brother relentlessly pursued and imprisoned them. back, it incredibly is annoying to ascertain the government going alongside with the coverup. 5. extraterrestrial beings did it. extraterrestrial beings are actual and that i've got seen them. There are some who believe JFK replaced into going to pass public approximately extraterrestrial beings and that they did no longer opt for that. Clinton has been quoted as asserting he does no longer pass public approximately extraterrestrial beings because of the fact he did no longer opt for to wind up like JFK. the sole theories that make experience to me are the FED banks and extraterrestrial beings. those are the sole communities who might have the supplies to do the coverup and shield it a number of those years.

I remember being in the 8th grade at the time. I've heard all the theories for all of these years.

To me, there is no compelling reason to believe anything else other than Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone.

It may not be the most interesting of the explanations, but I believe it is the most truthful.

He was my great-grandmother's cousin so yes, I've researched the hell out of this one.

I don't know if you've been to Dallas....but I could have hit him with a rock from the Book Depository.

The nutballs who either think 1) Lee Harvey was too far away to hit him, or 2) Think he couldnt' have fired enough shots either have never been to Dallas, forget that Oswald was a trained sniper, or both.

Also there have been multiple ballistic studies to confirm the head movement, regardless of what Oliver Stone tells you.




There very possibly were other people involved behind the scenes, who knows?

I think it is pretty obvious that Oswald was the shooter, however.

I was a freshman in high school on the afternoon of November 22, 1963. No it definitely was not Lyndon Johnson who killed President Kennedy. They were friends, and LBJ actually had admiration and affection for the first family.

JFK was killed by a communist, and that is all there is to it.

Lee Harvey Oswald did it acting alone. He may have been ordered to do it by the Communists since JFK ordered a hit on a Communist leader that failed.

Run this past your history teacher as I have thought this way for about 35 yrs. OK, the USA was broke because the Depression of the 30's and lo and behold Japan bombed Pearl Harbor and suddennly we were at war. But the US Govt. didn;t have the cash to finance the war. Now during Prohibition a lot of different mobs were in charge of supplying booze to everyone.The Mafia,the Irish Mob (JFK's Dad was involved in bringing in the hooch to New England states, The Cornbread mob for supplying the south and moving Moonshine north. Chinese,for bringing it to the west coast. The ones who were the most successful and the ones who needed their homeland liberated was the Italian mob. So the US Govt cut a deal with them to finance the war against Hitler, Mousellini,and the Japs and in this deal they agreed to liberate Sicily after taking N.Africa. Have her trace the 2nd world war to follow what we liberated first . OK Now the US govt. was up and going and as every one knows from the small shop owner in Chicago to New York if the Mafia does you a favor you owe them one back. Along comes JFK and his brother Robert and they decide to declare War on Crime(not all crime bosses just the Mafia Crime bosses cause they are muscling in on the New England mob's territory(Irish Mob) and the Teamsters are swinging to support another Democrat for President. Like I said if the Mafia helps you out someday they want your help back. So the Mafia called in their favor from the Govt. for financing the war in 1941. Get rid of JFK or we will tell everyone where the money came from to finance wwII So in comes the CIA ane FBI to save face for what happened in 1941 JFK was killed and made it to look like one man could pull off 3 of the most accurate shots with a bolt action rifle and iron sights and a magic bullet that passed through JFK andGov Connelly without any distortion on a moving target. Films slowed down shows JFK's head slamming back on the second shot like it came from the front of the motorcade instead of from behind and everyone who knows physics will tell you this is impossible. The complete Warren comm. report has been sealed for 100 yrs
