New doubts on the JFK assassination - have the conspiracy theorists been right all along?

Question

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/18709539/

This comes from the former head of the FBI's metalurgical analysis lab, hardly a member of the crackpot fringe.

Christa, you must know your stuff, because Oswald himself told reporters he had not shot anyone, and that he was just the "patsy."

Hardnose, Johnson told an interviewer not long before his death that he believed that there had been a conspiracy to kill Kennedy. Would you expect him to have said that if he, himself was involved?

Answer 1

If you've ever fired a Mannlicher Carcano 6.5 mm rifle on a range. you would know the absolute impossibility of getting off 3 rounds accurately in 5 seconds with that useless weapon!..The Italians didnt like a rifle that had to much 'boot' in it..the projectile is longer than the cartridge, its trajectory is eccentric and its hopelessly inaccurate over 100yds!..It 'wanders' off all over the place!..The German bolt action is superb, but the Italian rest of it is hilarious!..At 300 yds, the bullet even begins to tumble because its so long, its unstable in flight!..Oswald may have done some shooting at Kennedy, but he would have been lucky to hit the moving car, let alone the target he was aiming at!...Makes you wonder, doesnt it?

Answer 2

Lets answer this the right way....if we come up in six months and readily prove that Oswald was not the only shooter....that we can readily identify the second guy.....and show that a conspiracy existed from within the exiled Cuban community, the CIA and a handful of power-players in DC.....would you be sleeping comfortably at night? Would you feel really safe? Would you feel happy that the truth was finally out?

The truth is....you really wouldn't feel very good...and you'd start to have doubts in your nation and its leadership...and the media that simply rubber-stamped the original story. This is a story that you cannot handle.....same with RFK's shooting. So just sit back and enjoy your ice cream and watch reruns of Gilligan's Island.

Answer 3

Did president Kennedy have any idea that his life was headed for that end; I bought a book from my local library, titled; The Death of a President by; William Manchester who at the time was speaking with the president about writing on, the portrait of a President. I find that to be a strange way to portrait, because there must always be an ending to a story, was the president giving his life to that story at such a rate that it did kill him; something i ponder. thank you for the question.

Answer 4

I have always believed Johnson was involved with Hoover and others to get rid of the rebellious Kennedy and His brother. My fantasy also included a deal with Nixon so that both parties were involved to open the doors for losers like Johnson and Nixon to get the top spot. People must understand individual lives mean nothing in high level politics.

Answer 5

This piece says 'They have come to no conclusion' , 'the pieces may have come from three or more bullets'. Basically nothing firm just lots of vague waffle.

And Tobin has his own agenda. A continuation of his feud with the FBI. They did nothing with the actual bullet fragments, just some from the same lot, or were they? That cannot even be proved. This is just a disgruntled ex-employee trying to get his name in the news.

Answer 6

I always wondered why JFK's death was not announced until hours after the assassination. He was shot around noon and his death was announced at 2 pm. JFK had his head blown off in the limo. His brains were scattered all over the car and his wife. The American public was led to believe the doctors at Parkland Memorial were working to save the President's life. Why and who was buying time between the actual death and the announcement?

Answer 7

Kennedy had more enemies in Washington than could be counted. Hoover and Johnson both hated Him and Bobby . The possibility existed that a dynasty could have taken over the white house. The fact that both Kennedy's were murdered says more than people care to hear. I have no doubt that one day the truth will come out and really rock this society.

Answer 8

Given enough time you doubters will eventually learn that most of us conspiracy theorists know of what we say....we normally use many points of reference at least I do.

The CIA was behind the JFK murder and eventually it will be known they were behind 9-11 as well by the general public. Learn about the shadow government of the USA and you will know what is going on and why. Remember always though...the CIA is above the law.

ADDITIONAL:
JFK was going to disband the CIA. He stated he would "smash it into a million pieces" He also was trying to stop the Federal Reserve System, which is neither federal nor a reserve but a private corporation in violation of the Constitution. JFK was issuing "Union Notes" issued by the federal government. The "Fed" did not like this because it cut into their profits. These are but two reasons he was murdered.

Answer 9

I never did, nor will I ever believe the Warren Report and I am not alone in that opinion. Oswald was a patsy.

Answer 10

If you believe that the Government has been completely forthcoming with the truth, you are sorely mistaken. The government has a strict "F*ck the People" policy. You ask for answers, they tell you to f*ck off.
