I'm pretty sure the CIA got rid of Kennedy because of Vietnam. For one thing, JFK was very impressed by the advice given to him by General Douglas MacArthur which was to absolutely AVOID a land war in Asia and to rely instead on our Navy to contain Communist China since they could never catch up with us in that regard. The other reason for Kennedy's opposition to sending more troops to Vietnam was he was impressed by Barbara Tuchman's "Guns of August" about the outbreak of WWI. He realized that it is easy to get involved in a war but difficult to extricate from a war that has turned into a quagmire.

American political criminals know that they are unlikely to be prosecuted and jailed in their lifetime.

Hard to say how far this will all really go. I hope it goes all the way.

Currently, a large percentage of people do not trust the Institutions. Not the TV, not the newspapers, not the Tech companies, not the celebrities, not the politicians, not the courts, not the local government, not the schools, not the scientists. Everybody lies about everything.

But, at least for now, a fair number of people can still rest easy that they can trust at least a few things. Such as:

Lee Harvey Oswald killed JFK by himself.
The vaccines against COVID are legitimate.
Biden won the election.
Trump is a racist and a tax cheat.
The US is supporting Ukraine because Ukraine is the Good Guy.
The Republican Party has different policies from the Democrat Party.
etc.

What happens when trust is further eroded as people realize that absolutely none of this is true?

“I’m pretty sure the CIA got rid of Kennedy because of Vietnam.”

I go with the Bay of Pigs and that he didn’t finish the job in Cuba...but instead made it far worse.

During the Cuban Missile Crisis, Kennedy would be shown U2 photos of the installations being built and identical installation in the Soviet Union. Kennedy REFUSED to believe they were real because Castro had assured him that was not the case. This went on for weeks, until they had photos of the missiles being installed...and so we went to the brink.

Without someone who was such an IDIOT in office, I’m glad the CIA took him out, as I likely wouldn’t be here otherwise as my parents back then were in a prime target location.

French President Charles De Gaulle spoke to his friend President Eisenhower to help the French with Vietnam. I had a friend, former US Military, who was in Vietnam in 1958. So President Charles De Gaulle sucked the US Military into the Vietnam War and then left it for the Americans to solve. Well President Kennedy was not so included to solve the Vietnam issue and would of pulled out after he was re-elected. So, the Military Industry complex Eisenhower warned us about had strong motivation to prevent Kennedy’s 2nd term.

Oh if it were that simple that one covert organization did the assassination. And the guy that took the blame, Oswald, didn’t have anything to do with it other than being in the area and not even in the firing line that hit anyone in the car from the angles of the trajectories or even the holes that were in the windshield or the angle of the kill shot that came from the lower right of the car as identified in the Zapruder film that is still overseen by its chief official, the Archivist of the United States who is a political appointee of the President but is not a member of the cabinet.

Here’s a brief list of those that need attention when considering the hit:

The CIA - failed to clear out the plaza and the immediate surrounding area among other things.

The FBI - was involved with the cutting off of communication in the area during the drive through Deeley and Hoover wanted to keep his job because Kennedy wanted to shut the FBI down.

Sam Giancana - head of the Chicago mob was screwed by Jack and Bob right after the election after they promised to leave him alone in trade for votes. He provided the votes of the dead people in Illinois and they immediately went after him for racketeering.

And because his people pulled the trigger for the kill shot when a number of others missed:

In 1960 Giancana was involved in talks with Allen W. Dulles, the director of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), about the possibility of murdering Fidel Castro. It is claimed that during the 1960 presidential election Giancana used his influence in Illinois to help John F. Kennedy defeat Richard Nixon. The two men, at that time, shared the same girlfriend, Judith Campbell Exner.

The Secret Service - controls the movement and upkeep of the limos used by the president and they had installed a new windshield on the plane while coming back to D.C. due to bullet holes from the front of the limo.

Lyndon Johnson - Johnson was aware he would never be president as Bob and Ted were coming in behind Jack and there are pictures of him greeting the shot president at the hospital when the limo pulled in. How did he know it was going to happen at the location it did as the VP normally is kept away from the POTUS so they both couldn’t be harmed together.

There are others, but this is a short list. Each one, or group, had to be involved for the hit to happen the way it did and the aftermath.

Nothing is ever as it seems even if it was out in the open.
