Thats not correct. The Mayor of Dallas from 1961-1964 was Earle Cabell. His brother was Charles Cabell, who was deputy CIA director until he was forced to resign in the wake of the Bay of Pigs invasion. He was gone in 1961; months after JFK was inaugurated, and not "head of the CIA"
Have you ever been to Dealey Plaza in person?
I have since I live 20 miles away. Very small and not likely to have happened in my opinion.
Kennedy was also shot from the front.
No. The side of his head on his right was blow off. A front shot would have blown his forehead off. The mistake (and its an easy one to make) is that when you shoot something from behind, it fall forward. Thats not the case. Inertia from the bullet rips though the target, but the mass does not necessarily follow. History channel did a very good re-enactment showing that an object hit will fly backwards.
Ruby carried the rifles used down to a waiting car past the train tracks.
Never proven
Ruby conveniently was able to kill Oswald.
I'll give you that, but that would confirm that this was more of a mob hit than the CIA
It's called a coverup and many who knew where killed later
Some did die mysterious deaths, but most that did were connected in one way or another with the mob, but not necessarily all of them. The closest withness to the assassination Malcolm Summers died 2 years ago of old age.
You should read Posners book. Posner did do a fantastic job of proving that Oswald was the lone gunman and even proved that the shot of the magic bullet could have happened and with the jump seat that Connally was in in the limo (of which I also have seen in person at the Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn) perfectly lines up the shot. Not to mention that the bullet hit mostly soft tissue. He did this by lining up the bullet wounds on JFK's and Connellys shirts with the reaction on the Zepruder film.
Now I do beleve that this was a hit, but remember that the CIA couldn't even kill Castro! The only one that was able to pull this off was the Mafia and they had more than enough motive and means to do it....and to quiet those involved!
I read Posner's book and am not convinced in the least. How do you explain the magic bullet theory? Spector's theory is so bugus. I have read over 20 books on the subject and believe that three hit teams were operating in Dealey Plaza that day. One kid opened up a book in his attic and found all his dad's notes as he was one of the guys on one of the hit teams. AFter this was brought to light, the house was burgled and all the materials were stolen. Too many cases of this happening to believe the government's theories. Sorry I don't believe the government's take on this.
