Joseph Kennedy was a Nazi and Hitler supporter.
Franklin Roosevelt had to remove Joseph Kennedy from his post as US ambassador to Great Britain because of Kennedy’s unauthorized meetings with high level Nazi officials and his promoting of Germany preceeding WWII.
Joseph Kennedy, worked with the mob his whole life.
Sam Giancana said, “The biggest crook I ever dealt with was Joe Kennedy.”
New York mobster Frank Costello said, “I made Joe Kennedy his money.”
During Prohibition Kennedy used his high class contacts to bring liquor in from Europe, which the mob then rebottled and sold in the US speakeasies.
I pointed out that the JFK WWII hero story has some glaring holes and got jumped all over.
Read “A Question of Character: A Like of John F. Kennedy” by Thomas C Reeves. Reeves an academic historian who when writing the book was expecting to write the usual hagiography. In doing the research ( The book is meticulously sourced!) found something different.
Read the book & check the sources ! Don't take my word for it !
