RE Freemasons:
Never heard that assertion. But at this point in time, anything could be possible.
What is your gut instinct on it, though? Who do you think was definitely involved - giving the orders-wise, right through to carrying it out...
After hearing Stone on several different programs, it’s pretty convincing to me that LBJ was all over this.
Funny how people are ... no one wants to believe that “OUR” president could ever do something like that. Like we’re so far above the norm or something. So it’s difficult for some people to fathom treachery at that level. Sort of like the astonishment you see when a murder happens in a “good neighborhood” - “That sort of thing NEVER happens HERE!”
Hell, the way I see it, someone at that level, the more they have to lose, the more desperate they become, and the more likely they are to abuse the power they have while they have it... human nature, after all.
So many theories I really don’t know. But wasn’t the CIA responsible for a number of assassinations of So. American leaders around that time? Until a law was passed that “we aren’t going to do that any more”.
I really don’t see JFK as having done anything that bad — unless of course you’re Mafia and then it is his brother that’s the big problem. Stone implies that Robert Kennedy was more the target — get JFK and you get rid of RFK as Atty General and put “friend” LBJ in power.
Still fascinating after all these years, isn’t it.
The Mafia did not like the Crooked Cop. They might have viewed the Kennedy's as such.
Joseph Kennedy (Sr) used the Mafia to get the Kennedy's elected.
Then Robert (RFK) went after the Mafia as Attorney General.
The CIA would have felt betrayed by the Bay of Pigs.
There were probably powerful people in Europe and elsewhere that were very upset that Kennedy took the world to the brink of Nuclear War over the Cuban Missile Crisis.
John F. Kennedy had made his enemies. He was working for Civil Rights, so the KKK would be on his enemies list as well.
In short, the list is not a short one.
