JFK Assassination Expert: Lee Harvey Oswald Lone Gunman Theory Is ‘XXXXXXXX’
New York Post ^ | February 5, 2022 | Heather Robinson

Dr. Cyril Wecht distrusts the US government. And he’s proud of it. The forensic pathologist — who declared in 1978 that Lee Harvey Oswald did not act alone in assassinating President John F. Kennedy — is now 90 and still sticking to his story.

Wecht’s latest book, “The JFK Assassination Dissected” (Exposit Books), summarizes his six decades of research into the subject, and pokes holes in the conclusion made by the seven-man Warren Commission that Oswald, without any help, shot and killed Kennedy when his motorcade drove past the Texas School Book Depository in Dallas on Nov. 22, 1963.

“Young people are still being taught that the 35th president was murdered by a lone gunman, and that is simply xxxxxxxxx,” Wecht boomed during an interview at his modest office in downtown Pittsburgh last month.

My moment of awakening, to the fact that the government lies to us and covers stuff up happened in the Flight 800 crash over Long Island Sound.

My awakening to the rottenness of the government was Waco. They launched a military assault against a community of people supposedly to arrest one guy who could easily have been taken in town at any time, and they murdered them down to the last man, woman, and child.

And yet, from a rested position, shooting at a stationary target about 100' (not yards), using the exact same rifle, he missed General Walker.

Whoops!

I meant spitzer. Sorry.

After reports of inadequate performance at both short and long ranges[2][3] during the campaigns in Italian North Africa (1924–1934), and the Second Italo-Abyssinian War (1934), the Italian army introduced a new short rifle in 1938, the Modello 1938, together with a new cartridge in 7.35×51mm caliber. In addition to the slightly larger caliber, Italian ordnance designers introduced a spitzer-type bullet for the new cartridge, with the tip filled with aluminum to produce an unstable (tumbling) projectile upon impact in soft tissue (a design most likely copied from the .303 British Mk VII bullet).

The Commie did it. End of story.

Amen! Oswald pulled the trigger and was the sole and only assassin.

Given his head was thrown backwards by the force of the blast, and the back of his head was blasted off, Oswald either was not alone, or had nothing to do with the murder.

It was election year, and the day of the crash was a national holiday in Iraq.

"Amazing the shot missed Gen Walker. I never knew this stuff."

The Dallas Police Report of the incident is online:

https://texashistory.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metapth338124/

It makes for an interesting read. Just note that all the pages are scanned front and back, even though most of them are one sided, which makes it a little awkward to scroll through.

Walker's residence is still there, as is the church and parking lot mentioned in the report. Interestingly, Walker's house has recently been up for sale, although it looks like it's contingent, now.

that committee investigated both the kennedy and king killings..and concluded that there was PROBABLY a conspiracy...but was UNABLE to determine how or the who ...only that oswald and ray fired the shots...in other words, they had zero evidence of any conspiracy and was a complete waste of time.....honestly, there was no conspiracy...

Sorry, I lived on Long Island when Flight 800 was shot down. EVERYONE said “missile.” Literally, local radio had dozens and dozens and dozens of people on, and every last one of them who described seeing the event before hearing a boom described seeing a bright, white line launch into the sky, and hit the plane.

What motive would Allen Dulles have to do such an act?

Given the garbage kids are being taught these days I would be fine with them just stating official facts of the case and not someone's hobby horse theory.

So are you trying to say that Trump didn't do it with Joe Rogan's help?

Wecht is mistaken. Oswald was the lone assassin. Posner & Bugliosi books are the best on the subject.

By Nov 23,1963 it was apparent that Lee Harvey Oswald had shot President Kennedy.

The Warren Commission (current day deep state) concluded that Oswald was a lone actor and that there was no conspiracy.

The House Select Committee on Assassinations concluded that there was indeed a conspiracy to assassinate JFK although they couldn’t (or declined) to prove it.

“honestly there was no conspiracy.”
Sorry to have to say this but that blinkered /blind statement leads me to suggest ‘useful idiot’.

"What motive would Allen Dulles have to do such an act?"

Dulles was forced to resign in the wake of the Pay of Pigs, as was his deputy, Gen. Charles Cabell. Cabell's brother just happened to be the Mayor of Dallas at the time of the assassination.

Dulles was appointed to the Warren Commission by LBJ exactly two years to the day JFK forced his resignation from the CIA.

The POW issue is pretty straight forward. Raising hell with the Soviet Union, Red China or North Viet Nam had no upside for any one in DC. These men were just the loose change of high politics.

It matters when you realize the intelligence community that murdered him has had far too much power since then and has now gained control of America.

No deep state in 1963? Yeah, you go with that.
