Lee Harvey Oswald was the prime suspect in President Kennedy’s assassination but was soon “assassinated” himself by Jack Ruby. Because of his sudden death, Oswald was never able to tell his story, however there are many ideas on who killed the President. Many say it was a conspiracy and some say it was Oswald alone. I personally believe Kennedy’s death was a conspiracy. Although, I believe it was a conspiracy, there are multiple that could be possible. Clearly, I believe the assassination of JFK was a conspiracy. Government Hired Mob to Kill the President A conspiracy that i've come to create on my own is that that the assassination of John F Kennedy was the work of the Government and The Mob. I say this because of the fact that people investing in war stocks, including government officials during the last few weeks of Kennedy's life, would have lost a lot of money. The government wouldn't let themselves lose money over a war they…

    Oswald These are reasons and facts on my understanding that Oswald was not the lone assassin, how he was part of a larger conspiracy, and how he was not completely innocent. According to The JFK Assassination, “The FBI told a man to keep quiet about one man, and the other with a gun.” I do not think that Oswald was the lone assassin because in the text a man saw two men, one a railroad worker, and one that looked like a person in a police outfit, and the FBI told that man who…

Those 2 probably had something to do with the mob. Oswal´s job was to kill the president and if he did it wrong then Jack Ruby was to kill him. Jack Ruby tried to warn police to change the route of Oswald's transformation or else he wouĺd be shot but they didn't listen to him and he did end up dieing. …

    We as Americans will never truly know the true story because there are so many different possibilities that it could be. Like in the assassination of Kennedy, I read that Lee Harvey Oswald assassinated Kennedy all by himself, but then I also heard that there was other people who could’ve been involved with the assassination. From my interviews and the research I did on this topic, I have concluded that Kennedy was assassinated by Lee Harvey Oswald. Whether there was other people involved or…

    solider but was denied access. He had a mixed feeling for John Kennedy but never hated him. I know this is a great resource because PBS is known nationally. The writer has great creditably because he works for PBS. I think this resource is very creditable and I plan on using it.

It shows that the United States knew about…
