Well if it had to happen the one that survived should have the first one to go. Ted did more damage then Japan or Germany.
He didn’t. The CIA killed Kennedy. But if you’re insistent on defending the CIA, and LBJ, be my guest.
Lowest rating possible for a trained Marine rifleman.
That and a million other distorted facts and outright lies, as well as ignoring inconvenient details that don’t help sell conspiracy books.
Not relevant if LBJ had the most to gain. Where was the second shooter, then?
Trained Marine rifleman from several stories shooting a moving target moving down and away, with a $25 mail order rifle/scope combo. Thats how I’d plan it.
Jim Garrison, the central figure in JFK, did try one his alleged conspirators, Clay Shaw, in 1969. It took the jury less than an hour to find Shaw not guilty. That says something about the strength of Garrison’s claims.
From that school suppository building, Sir!
Another good, though much shorter, book is Conspiracy of One. I never read Bugliosi’s book because by the time it came out there was nothing left to say. I’ve read just about every conspiracy book out there.
No, the CIA didn’t. But if it makes you feel better to think one lone nut can’t shape history, enjoy your comfort.
“The Posner book, mentioned in another post - easily dispenses with the theory of the “zig zag trajectory.” There is an excellent diagram of the layout of the car, the position of the passengers, the position of their injuries, and the trajectory of the bullet.”
Exactly. Kennedy leaning slightly in one direction and Connolly in a slightly different direction explains the 2nd bullet path nicely. It easily makes a straight line back to the sixth floor. There’s no “zig zag”.
What’s the beef with Thirteen Days ?
The condition of the recovered bullet indicates to me, as a firearms professional, that it was planted evidence. If there was no conspiracy, why the need to plant evidence?
A lone nut can ,or could, walk up to a president and shoot him at close range. Oswald was not capable, intellectually, or otherwise, of pulling off what happened byhimself.
It's been awhile since I read it, but I remember Winston Churchill in his biography of his ancestor the Duke of Marlborough recounting a case of British soldiers setting fire to a building full of people in the waning days of the War of the Spanish Succession. It happened after Marlborough had been relieved of command.
Have you ever been to the old School Book Depository building?
Yep. Do you think every drone at the CIA was copied-in to memos outlining the op?
