JOEBIALEK Posted February 8, 2006 Report Share Posted February 8, 2006 Perhaps known as one of the greatest murder mysteries of all time, the assassination of President John F. Kennedy has for years intrigued scholars, authors and the average American citizen. The assassination can be classified into two distinct categories: method and significance. Few would argue that too much emphasis has been given to the method and very little to the significance. This is exactly how the perpetrators would like it to be. Photographic evidence along with eyewitness testimony has already conclusively proven that JFK was shot by more than one assassin. The Mary Mormon photo clearly shows the profile of a shooter behind the picket fence on the grassy knoll. It is obviously someone wearing a policeman's uniform {some speculate it was J.D. Tippit}. This was the fatal head shot. Two other bullets struck the President; the first one entered at the base of the throat and the second struck him in the back. While the positions of the assassins makes for a good game of clue, the more important issue is the significance of the assassination. Many have speculated that the former Soviet Union, Cuba, the KKK, the Mafia, LBJ, CIA and the FBI all had strong motives to attempt this. However, given the connection of Lee Harvey Oswald to the CIA and Jack Ruby to the Mafia along with the altered autopsy reports, the evidence points to a coup de' dat by the CIA. They did it because they believed JFK was taking the United States on the wrong path towards dealing with communism. That is the reason why the cover-up has been sustained for so long. The perpetrators honestly believed they were doing the right thing for the United States at the time. The will of the people was discarded in favor of preserving the nation as they saw fit. Unfortunately, they didn't realize the long term effects of the assassination. One result was the increased power of capitalism over democracy. Profit has become more important than freedom. Corporations are more concerned with increasing the wealth of a select few than with promoting the general welfare of the very nation that allows them to conduct business. A second result has been the subordination of this nation's civil liberties to the private agendas of the powers that be. The only opinions that are accepted today are those that further the bottom line. Contrary opinions are discouraged and distorted by spin doctors. The only explanation for the lack of attention given to the significance of the assassination is because the government, the military and the media all know what happened and to expose the event for what it really was goes to the central core of what constitutes the United States of America.

InfiniteNow Posted February 8, 2006 Report Share Posted February 8, 2006 So what's your question? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Racoon Posted February 8, 2006 Report Share Posted February 8, 2006 Yes, an extremely important and historic event.. :Waldo: So what is your question, after a thoughtful and reasoned post? Who killed JFK? Probably not JHOswald.. He even said he was a 'Patsy'.. Me thinks the Mob, after they helped get him elected, and then he decided to get tough with Mafia.. Same with his brother.. :Waldo: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBigDog Posted February 9, 2006 Report Share Posted February 9, 2006 If you were going to pull off such an operation, why would you do it in such a public and risky fashion? Look at the chain of events that needed to happen. If someone was such an insider as to be able to rearrange the president's schedule on the day of the trip, and get the assassin team into place, why couldn't they have done it in a setting without witnesses? It seems like a bad plan to me. Too many people to trust. Too much potential for screw up. Who knows. Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Racoon Posted February 9, 2006 Report Share Posted February 9, 2006 Well, apparently they didn't screw it up..He's dead and no one really knows who did it to this day! :Waldo: They won't open the sealed, official files until the year 2040, when anyone/everyone who knew anything or played a hand in it is officially Dead! :Waldo: I shouldn't say Sh#%, because I wasn't even alive at the time... But Me thinks there was definately a conspiracy... :Waldo: Otherwise it would have been another Abe Lincoln.John Wilkes Booth, H J Oswald.. Case Closed.. They make a point of using first, middle, and last names with such killers. John Wilkes worked for a conspiracy too... Only it was a 100 years prior.
