Do you believe there was a plot to kill John Kennedy?

Question

11/22/63 was the date of his assassination. Did Oswald act alone or if not who else was in on it?

Answer 1

I don't believe that all bullets fired in Dealey Plaza came from one person.



According to the Warren Report:



1. One missed the car (concrete chips hit a man in the face)

2. One hits Kennedy in the back/neck (depending on what you believe), tumbles, hits Connally sidewise in the back, and his wrist. Bullet ends up with virtually no damage to it.

3. One hits Kennedy in the head and kills him.



HOWEVER, other information:



1. Acoustical evidence of shots fired in Dealey Plaza and analysis of corresponding noises on a tape, from a microphone on a motorcycle in the motorcade, indicated that there were more than 3 shots. (Done by the House Committee on Assassinations in 1977).



2. The physician at Parkland Hospital stated that the neck wound was an entry wound, not an exit wound. (This was used for a tracheotomy, however, so no one could tell what it was later-exit or entry). This was an experienced trauma emergency room physician.



3. Witnesses heard shots come from the knoll next to the Dealey Plaza pergola, and went up there after the shots were fired to see if anyone was back there. (This is corroborated by photographs).



4. Witnesses saw a man open a black umbrella next to the street, and move it up and down several times as the motorcade passed--this was on a hot SUNNY day in November. It is believed that this may have been a signal to everyone to start firing.(This is also corroborated by photographs. He was located in front of a street sign next to Elm Street, slightly in front of Zapruder.) (A man came forward in 1977 to claim that he was that person, and brought forth the umbrella that he used. However, it was not a match to the umbrella in the photograph. He was not considered credible).



5. Governor John Connally, and Jean Hill, the teacher famous for photographing the event, both stated that one shot first hit JFK, then one hit Connally, then the fatal shot. That means there were four fired if one missed the car !



6. The Secret Service agents said the last two shots were like "bang-bang," thus, too close together to be fired by the same rifle.



7. John Connally shouted "No, no , they're going to kill us all."

Jackie Kennedy, at the airport, stated that she wasn't going to change clothes when the oath of office was given to Lyndon Johnson. She said that "I want them to see what they've done." Both of these individuals obviously believed that more than one person was involved at the time of the shooting.



8. The Dallas PD issued an "all-points" for a single shooter, Lee Harvey Oswald, within 45 minutes of the shooting, yet there is no clear evidence as to how they found out that this was the ONLY person that they were to be looking for. Oswald was just one person who happened to have been spotted in the first floor cafeteria as the motorcade passed by, by a witness.



9. A flash of recognition crosses Oswald's face right before he is shot by Jack Ruby. These two men knew each other. Very odd coincidence.



Too many loose ends.

Answer 2

I don't think that the person they claimed was Oswald had anything to do with the assassination. Remember that he claimed he was a patsy? When Lee harvey Oswald enlisted, he was described as being 5' 11" and having a "bull-neck". Does that sound like the guy Jack Ruby murdered?



Oswald was a Military Air Traffic Controller in Germany at the base where the U-2 flights originated. All of a sudden he decides to be a Communist and defects to Russia. Several months later the Russians shoot down Francis Gary Powers. Shortly after that, Oswald un-defects and comes back to the States with his Russian bride, where he's welcomed back without fanfare.



Kennedy was set up to die because he threatened to break up the CIA and scatter it into a thousand pieces. he fired the CIA Director (Allen Dulles) and was crafting an Executive Order to split the organization when he was murdered. The first thing Lyndon Johnson did after taking the Oath was to rescind that EO. Dulles was later named to the Warren Commission which really still astounds me.



Dallas was chosen because of the Cabell brothers. One was the Mayor of Dallas and the other was the Military District Commander of that region. They had complete control and were able to get the military to stand down.



The motorcade entered a perfect kill box when it drove into Dealy Plaza. There were three gunmen; one in the 2nd floor West window of the Dal-Tex Building (E. Howard Hunt, or someone he recruited), one on the grassy knoll to the rear of Mr. Zapruder, behind the fence in the uniform of a Dallas Cop (a French Corsican named Jean Paul Suetra), and one in the catchmen basin of the drain on the overpass coming out of Dealy Plaza (W.R. Harrelson, Woody Harrelson's father), who actually fired the last shot which struck Kennedy above the right eye and blew his brains all over the trunk of the car.



All of this is out there in books.

Answer 3

Kennedy paid the price for not going along with the plans by those who had the power to eliminate him. His refusing to follow party plans did as much to get him killed as he did by trying to knock off Castro. Lyndon Johnson was not happy taking the second spot on the ticket. Kennedy pulled some last minute fast moves to deny Johnson the appointment for the top of the ticket. The military was also upset because Kennedy flexed his presidential powers too much. Many years from now history may record His assassination as the first deal between the democrats and republicans to guide the US into what was popular with the money people.

Answer 4

Yes I do. There are many stories as to who plotted it and they all have truth as to motive. I am sure Oswald did not act alone and most of my friend think the same way as well.

Answer 5

I think there was a plot and it was planned I don't think someone would say lets kill kennedy for fun. There were more people behind it and they had a reason for this assasination. It wouldnt be a clear answer on who else was in on it becuase they were not the ones that got caught.

Answer 6

No one knows for sure. Oswald was not alone by any means and I have heard different rumors about the government itself being the culprit that did the dirty deed, but you know how rumors get started and then get blown out of the frame the futhur that they go, but it would not have surprised me to learn that the government was involved in it.

Answer 7

There are numerous conspiracy theories. And with every theory, comes a barrage of unanswered questions. The real truth probably won't be known until all documents are made public in 2038. By then, no one will care (which is exactly why the U.S. government concealed those documents for 75 years). -RKO-

Answer 8

Despite uncertainty as to who may have been involved with this, it was a conspiracy and Oswald was the pawn in this whole tragic situation

Answer 9

There was a plot to kill JFK. Anyone like him, who helps his country and people to improve and to become productive is surely to be eliminated.

Answer 10

There was a plot. He's dead isn't he. Oswald acted alone even if the CIA told him to do it.

Answer 11

If you find the solution for John Kennedy,s murder ,you,ll find the solution for 11/9.Muslims are innocent of all conspiracy crimes.

Answer 12

no assassins act alone. You know those planes didn't make the twin towers fall.........

Answer 13

Exactly how much difference would it make to your life or mine if we figured it out??



I saw it happen, and it was as sad as the towers going down. The grief seemed to never end.



Once He was dead, who did it really wasn't especially important.

Answer 14

Not yet.
