Who really killed JFK?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Lee Harvey Oswald or the Illuminati

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Kennedy was assassinated on November 22, 1963, in Dallas, Texas. Lee Harvey Oswald was charged with the crime but was shot and killed two days later by Jack Ruby before any trial. The FBI, the Warren Commission, and the House Select Committee on Assassinations (HSCA) concluded that Oswald was the assassin, with the HSCA allowing for the probability of conspiracy based on disputed acoustic evidence. Today, Kennedy continues to rank highly in public opinion ratings of former U.S. presidents.

theres some good documentaries around about this guy but yeah, as sinkktn said, its not really confirmed, just widely accepted that lee harvey oswald did it.. with a possibility of a 2nd shooter at ground level on a 'grassy knoll' (small grass hill) kind of area a short distance away.

As LHO said in one of his impromptu interviews after arrest, he was just a patsy. Now a patsy is an interesting thing as it is is someone who has been planted into a situation where all circumstancial evidence points to him being the perpertrator of the crime. There was so called photographic evidence of Lee holding the aledged rifle that killed JFK but on close inspection the pictures look like crude cut and paste jobs of Oswald's head on a different body. Three shots were said to be fired from the Texas School Book Depository but one of those was the bullet that went therough the president's neck and exited through Governor Connoly's thigh and miraculously remained in pristine condition. If you are a hunter check out a bullet that killed say, a rabbit, see if that is in pristine condition. If you are not a hunter, I can tell you it will not be! To answer your question you have to look at President Kennedy's enemies to even begin to put an hypothosis together as to who ordered his assasination. It is extremely unlikely that Oswald acted alone if at all on 22nd November 1963.

Jack Ruby killed Lee Harvey Oswald before he could be arraigned and give a confession. Jack Ruby is the reason why we have conspiracy theories as to who killed JFK. Science tries to prove differently, but Lee Harvey Oswald killed him. Abraham Zapruder was filming the motorcade from the grassy knoll and doesn't recall seeing anyone suspicious at the time the shots were fired.

aliens...nice yaar..may be it happend if stephen hawking was detective of this case.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Somebrew10 I would ask you to remember that Mr Zapruder was facing the motorcade and the shots were heard from the picket fence behind him. So he would find it difficult to see anyone suspicious. Interestingly the Zapruder film almost single handedly proves that there was a gunman from the grassy knoll area as the fatal headshot indicates a shot from the front and right side of the president due to the recoil after impact, not from behind where LHO was aledgedly shooting from the TBD.

It happened as the history books said it happened...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I did it.

Llort the history books also said that the British Empire was not expoitative and merely brought civilisation to an uncivilised world. I do not know what to believe! Oh they also said that the atomics bombs had to be dropped on Japan to end the wat quickly even though she was on her knees and Japanese territory was occupied bt US forces. Oh and also the history books said that the culprit for the first world war was Germany. Oh but I am forgetting something, they are old history books that have since been revised buy yeah if you want to believe Oswald did it, you do that.
