Who was behind JFK's assassination?

[daft]

Which theory do you think is right?
sorry about the spelling error

 

[Thorgalaeg]

One man could not have done it alone, as it is well explained here:

Link to video.
Ejem...

Seriously i think it was a conspiration. CIA, Johnson and who knows.

 

[dragonprobably]

Johnson was a Democrat not a Republican.

JKF had himself assassinated to screw with tinfoil hatters.

JKF? You mean the Japan Karate Federation?

NASA did it. JFK was actually going to make them go to the moon and was very close to nixing the Arizona-warehouse-hoax-coverup plan at the time. NASA couldn't let that happen so they used an anal probe taken from the Roswell landing to brainwash Lee Harvey Oswald into sniping JFK. Somewhere along the line NASA also turned LBJ into a Manchurian Candidate.

Yes. John F. Kennedy was actually an android controlled at a distance by the Japan Karate Federation. The original Kennedy was captured during WW2 and replaced with a drone, with the intent of serving as a sleeper agent with the American establishment capable of carrying out revenge attacks in the event of Japan falling to the Allies. As it turned out, however, the organisation's post-war administration were a laid-back bunch who just wanted to do some sweet kicks, so they abandoned the plan for revenge and instead used the Kennobot to send them fine whiskies, nude pictures of Marilyn Monroe and those towels you get at the White House with the logo embroidered on them, very classy, then offed him when that got boring. That's the truth of the matter, plain and simple, and I have the sources to prove it.

Wait - you can brainwash someone - with an anal probe?!

Best comeback I've seen on this forum. Well played!

The Illuminati lizardmen, who are controlling the Illuminati who are in turn controlling the world.

Or was it the Masons?

Yes because Aliens.

This is the stupidest thread ever in World History which is saying something.

 

[Tahuti]

The Mossad did it together with the KGB, the Federal Reserve and the Black Panthers...

Whenever a conspiracy theory thread breaks out in World History, it becomes very stupid.

Not yet.

You see, it's because Gavin Menzies channeled the ghost of Zheng He to take revenge on anyone who thinks Columbus beat the Chinese to "America"--if that's even its real name--and long story short he was the kid on the grassy knoll who pulled off the third shot. Lee Harvey Oswald was a patsy.

Now, it's the stupidest thread in WH.

IT IS VERY STUPID. A conspiracy theory thread is created stupid. It will die stupid. It will know no redemption. And rightfully so.

 

[Plotinus]

There have definitely been stupider threads.

However, there's nothing intrinsically stupid about the question. One of the most brilliant scholars in my own field, Richard Popkin, took time off seventeenth-century intellectual history to devote a disproportionate amount of time to the Kennedy assassination and argued at great length that there must have been a second gunman. I don't know whether his reasons for thinking this were good, but he was certainly not stupid.

 

[Tahuti]

Yet the premise seems to be rooted in conspiracy theories, not really in scholarly inquirement.

 

[Kyriakos]

^As Plotinus noted, the question does not have to deteriorate to "conspiracy theory" territory if dealt with by intelligent and thorough scholars.

It should be noted that sometimes conspiracies do happen (as in half of the time in the Byzantine Empire). Just because one view is backed by the government it does not mean that any other view is by default a false one, nor a less intelligent or less likely to be true.

As for the JFK issue, i watched the videos, which are utterly gruesome (the man was not merely killed, he was made an example of by pretty much leaving him with half his cranium). Haven't read about the theories apart from outlines.

Well, if the bullet trajectory really is what people say it is, then I have to say that a conspiracy theory might be justified in this case.

But most of my impressions on the assassination come from less than reliable sources, so maybe it's not very mysterious at all.
