>>People certainly may act in cold blood out of greed or ambition, but they *will* act when faced with the existential fear of annihilation. It is a superb motivator.
The idea that an insane president may start a nuclear World War III at any moment could make anyone and everyone in the room consider reaching for their pistol to stop him.<<
I see it from the other side. People do act in cold blood out of greed or ambition, but they *will* act when faced with the existential fear of annihilation.
We are now watching an insane president crush our American principles and individual liberties step by step into communist socialism and no one in the room is considering reaching for their pistol to stop him.
When Kennedy signed the Executive Order he was attempting to crush the Bankers power structure and they acted without hesitation.
I’ve got to give it to JFK if he signed that EO you mention. Good for him. So much history we don’t know of.
We’ve got to remember buddy, the House Select Committee on Assassination even delved into this issue:
“(2) CIA personnel abroad.—Turning to particular allegations, the committee investigated the statement of former CIA employee James Wilcott, who testified in executive session that shortly after the assassination of President Kennedy he was advised by fellow employees at a CIA post abroad that Oswald was a CIA agent who had received financial disbursements under an assigned cryptonym. Wilcott explained that he had been employed by the CIA as a finance officer from 1957 until his resignation in 1966. In this capacity, he served as a fiscal account assistant on the support staff at a post abroad from June 1960 to June 1964…On the day after President Kennedy’s assassination, Wilcott claimed he was informed by a CIA case officer that Oswald WAS AN AGENT. He further testified he was told that Oswald had been assigned a cryptonym and that Wilcott himself had unknowingly dispursed payments for Oswald’s PROJECT. (HSCAR, pp. 198-199) (Emphasis added)”

James Tague, famous for getting a fragment of concrete in the cheek caused by a bullet that day has also just released a book and suspects LBJ.
Google it. There’s volumes of data about it.
That CIA sure turns out some slick agents. They could have shown James Bond a thing or two. < /s >
I'll repeat the joke Responsibility2nd posted earlier because it is well worth repeating after 50 years of this nonsense.
Two JFK conspiracy theorists that die go to heaven. They finally ask God to once and for all settle for them who it was that killed JFK.
God sighs and patiently and lovingly admonishes them, "You've spent so much of your lives chasing after this conspiracy. You've sacrificed time with your families, allowed yourselves to be overcome by paranoia. You've wasted so much of the time and energy that I gave you. Oswald killed Kennedy. He was acting on his own and all of the evidence you needed to satisfy yourselves of that was their the whole time, if only you had looked with open hearts and minds."
The one conspiracy theorist turns to the other and whispers, "This goes higher than we thought."
I remember where I was too. Sitting on a stool at the soda fountain drinking a malt, the radio was on and I had to scream at the woman behind the counter to SHUT UP so I could hear the news.
...I was in 7th period algebra class...freshman year...a burst of radio static came over the loudspeaker...everybody started acting up...then the principal came on, and the rest is history...

...and the day prior my Ancient&Medeival history class went on a trip to the Rivoli Theater in NYC, to see the new blockbuster ‘Cleopatra’, with Liz and Burton...quite a couple of days...
One man killed JFK. That was a crazy little Commie loser named Lee Harvey Oswald.
Ditto, Ditto
Let me please introduce myself
I'm a man of wealth and taste...
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name...
A Few Questions that Beg for Answers
Why did RFK ask LBJ: “Why did you have my brother killed?” Was he off his rocker? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tclZrJiJSL0
Why were fingerprints of Mac Wallace, a known assassin who worked for LBJ and Ed Clark, found in the sniper’s nest on the sixth floor of the Texas School Book Depository?
http://www.spartacus.schoolnet.co.uk/JFKwallaceM.htm
Why did LBJ exclaim to his mistress Madeleine Duncan Brown after a meeting at Dallas house of Clint Murchison (owner of the Book Depository), attended by J. Edgar Hoover, Nixon, Mafia kingpins, and CIA allies of LBJ) on the eve of the assassination: “After tomorrow, those goddamn Kennedys will never embarrass me again. That’s no threat. That’s a promise”? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=79lOKs0Kr_Y
Who desparately wanted to be president and thought JFK had stolen the Democrtaic nomination from him? Who was going to be dropped from the JFK ticket in 1964 because of financial scandals? Who invited JFK to Dallas? Who changed the president’s route to pass by the Book Depository? Who moved to secure the limousine and JFK’s body immediately after the assassination? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VSXQYvm57YM
Who set up the Warren Commission and demanded Oswald be found to be the sole gunman? Who controlled the police in Dallas and the FBI and CIA in Washington? The answer: Lyndon Baines Johnson. LBJ had the motive, the means, the opportunity, the history of elimnating his opponents, and the quotations that point to his arrangement and approval of the JFK assassination and vigorous cover-up. LBJ was the clear winner.

That LBJ was responsible does not deny CIA/FBI/Secret Service and Mafia involvement but strengthens the case against him as he provided the leadership and federal resources to coordinate the assassination, select a patsy (in the CIA’s False Defector Program), and dominate the news media, such that to this day most news outlets are afraid to challenge the Warren Commission’s official story. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IjU2LtVGxN0
Why do the majority of Texans and a majority of Europeans believe LBJ was behind the murder of JFK? Why do we have such difficulty in accepting the fact that a coup d’etat happened on our watch, given that we elected (and re-elected) a Muslim Marxist with no substantive experience, no discernable achievements, and a profound hatred of things American, i.e., our Constitution and our values, as our most recent president?

No doubt but that conspiracy theories advance when key questions go unanswered and the evidence contradicts physics and forensics. The reason: there are no good answers that would be satisfactory to the media, which is afraid to even raise the possibility of LBJ’s involvement. New books out by Bill O’Reilly and Vincent Bugliosi duck the tough questions, and unlike a good murder mystery, we don’t have time to pay attention to all those important details that are available or to reason logically to a correct solution.

The crime may never be solved in a way most Americans will agree, especially if the documents still withheld don’t get released in the latter part of this century, as promised. Accepting that LBJ was a ringleader-killer would then cause us to admit that our great political system, the widely acclaimed democratic experiment with all its checks and balances, didn’t work, that we might be less pure than we thought we were. The Giant has gone back to sleep.
