Research Paper On Jfk Assassination

The Truth of J.F.K For 53 years, people in The United States have wondered about the truth behind the assassination of President John F. Kennedy and the conspiracy theories that lie underneath. The American people say that the assassination was committed by either the Mob, the Soviet Union or two other shooters. There is also gossip about a “magic bullet” that killed Kennedy. Although there is not any substantial evidence that it is any one of these factors, there are still many unanswered questions. Why would someone do such a thing to the 35th President that helped and solved many problems? The answer is unknown till this very day for which the government has tried to put an end to all links of the connection that can trace back to the
Mob, Russia, or even our own CIA.
When Americans talk about President Kennedy they often bring up the case of the Mob and Soviet Union. Many say that Jack Ruby killed Lee Oswald to keep him quiet or because “he was doing justice.” For what had happened to the President. There is no clear understanding behind the reason, although Jack Ruby did in fact say that he knew secrets in the Kennedy assassination. Jack Ruby ties into the Mob industry from running a nightclub owned by people that was apart of the Mafia. Pope John one of many authors that writes about the JFK assassination states, “Ruby said unnamed, high-ranking individuals were responsible for his plight and would suppress the truth about Oswald's slaying. According to The (London) Sunday Times, Ruby told a psychiatrist that he had been framed to kill Oswald and that he knew who ordered Kennedy's killing.” (Pope. John). Unfortunately January 3rd 1967 Ruby passed away from cancer without telling anyone about the assassination November 22 1963.
Not only did many people talk about the case of Jack Ruby but many cases come from the Soviet Union. During the late 1940’s Russia and The United States was at war dealing with Nuclear warfare and Communism. However during President Kennedy's term in 1960 he threatened the Soviets by stating that he will start the beginning of Nuclear war. Soon after the Soviets backed down for reasons knowing that there was no benefitting effects in starting a Nuclear war. But neither country still was not safe and did not want to take any chances. Both countries starting spying on one another to make sure that nothing got out of control. With this said Lee Harvey Oswald comes into place. During the Cold War the Red Scare was a huge deal for the people of the United States. FBI agents and government officials were on the look for anyone who was coming in and out of the states. Lee Harvey Oswald came back from Russia months before the assassination. Edward Epstein a journalist wrote an article on Oswald expressed, “Not only did he publically renounce his American citizenship but he told the U.S. consul that he intended to turn over to the Soviet Union military secrets that he had acquired while serving in the Marines, adding that he had data of "Special interest" to the Russians...When he telephoned from the Cuban embassy to arrange an appointment at the Soviet Embassy with an officer called Valery Vladimirovich Kostikov, he set off alarm bells at the CIA, which had been surreptitiously monitoring the phone line.” (Epstein Edward.) This points out that Russia has been spying on the United States just to make sure that they was not going to get harmed at any point.
The Mob and the Soviet Union make compelling remarks, on the other hand what if there was two shooter in the conversey.
There has been numerous reports of hearing shots fired on the grassy knoll. Bill Rockwood famous for his theories of the John. F Kennedy assassination states, “Dallas Police dictabelt and they concluded with a 95 percent certainty that there was a fourth shot fired at Dealey Plaza and it came from the grassy knoll.” (Rockwood Bill.) This theory comes into play with the three shots fired within eight seconds with a bolt action rifle which is impossible for anyone to do even the military. Although Bill Rockwood also stated, “Years later it was discovered that a motorcycle policeman’s radio button had been jammed open and that the gunshots in Dealey Plaza may have been accidentally recorded.” (Rockwood Bill.) With this being said there was no gunman or any evidence of a gunman being at the hilltop grassy
knoll.
Another true believer in the theory of the grassy knoll is Thom Patterson. Thom states, “It's possible there were individuals who helped Oswald, but who weren't part of any larger group or perhaps unaware of what he was planning. "Remember John Wilkes Booth shot Lincoln and four were hung, including the first woman ever to be hung (by the federal government,) Mary Surratt," ” (Patterson Thom.) Patterson makes a great statement about how four were hung on the account of the assassination of President Lincoln. Which could mean that there was more than just one shooter on November 22nd. When it comes down to the assassination of JFK people have no clues no evidence of the truth but from videos, interviews, and specially radios.
The most famous theory known to the world is the magic bullet theory.
This theory is that the bullet that shot into President John, F Kennedy was somehow curved to also hit John Connally which was the governor of Texas at the time. A youtube video published by N.Smith stated “ The bullet hit Kennedy then paused in mid air before hitting Connally.”(Smith.N) Also the video contains insights from critics saying “Critics of the single bullet theory argue that the round must of curved in mid flight in order to hit Connally where it did.” (Smith.N) When given that insight people assume that the magic bullet is true and that it was truth. But actually the video also states “Connally actually was seated about six inches indoor and turned to his right… So any trajectory come across through Kennedy's neck is precisely where Connally was hit… Connally is also was seated on a jump seat which is three inches lower than what Kennedy seat was based off of.” (Smith. N) Alongside the indicated quote it downs the whole conspiracy theory of the magic
theory,
One of the biggest conspiracy theories is that the CIA was involved in the assassination of John. F. Kennedy. Thom Patterson also has some insight on the the CIA theory describing, “"Supposedly Kennedy was fed up with the shenanigans that the CIA was pulling," Perry said. "He found out the CIA was trying to kill (Cuban leader Fidel) Castro, which is a fact. So the argument is that the CIA felt that Kennedy was going to disband them. And as a result of that, they were the ones that ordered the killing of Kennedy."......"It may have been something that they overheard involving him and the Russians. Or, maybe the CIA had Oswald on the payroll. He might have been a double agent."” (Patterson Thom.) These quotes points to all good reasons to how the CIA could play a major part in this assassination. Although the government will never tell the secrets of how things actually went on that evening in Dallas Texas.
Although these theories may or may not be true there are many people and excellent articles debating against the conspiracies of John. F. Kennedy. ABC News concludes, “National Academy of Sciences assembled a Committee on Ballistic Acoustics to re-examine the acoustic evidence. This group found that "reliable acoustic data do not support a conclusion that there was a second gunman." Richard Garwin of the Thomas J. Watson Research Center at IBM Corp.” These researchers took the time to reanalyze the data to actually see if there was any time of other shooter in the senio to just to be sure but came up with false evidence in the matter of the assassination. Also with the police radio being part of one of the theories of the second shooter Richard Garwin has insight in that theory stating “ Channel one was the routine channel and was being recorded on the Dictabelt. Channel two was the channel associated with the motorcade and that was on the Gray Audograph.
One of the motorcycles [in the motorcade] had a stuck open microphone and channel one was recorded continuously with the sound of the motorcycle engine and whatever other sounds were picked up. So, a good while after the assassination it was thought maybe there were sounds from the shots themselves on this continuous five-minute recording.” (ABC News.) With a scientist looking at the evidence it tells people that maybe it is true and that there was only one shooter. Although the disadvantage would be that people on the grassy knoll or anyone around the downtown, Dallas Texas will believe and still continue to believe that there was more shooters during the assassination. However it will not change the facts of which it is a reasonable explanation of how many people were to think that there was more than just one shooter at the scene of John F. Kennedy. American citizens have many beliefs of how that all of conspiracy theories are lies and still believe in the main fact of Lee Harvey Oswald was the only shooter for the reason of the radio made people believe that it was more shooters that killed John. F. Kennedy.
