JFK assassination: was any consensus ever reached as to who actually did it and why?

hey that's a great article, thanks Morbs xxxp

here we go, "new footage"

http://www.thewrap.com/jfk-assassination-new-footage-producer-stephen-bowen-lee-harvey-oswald

i wonder if pruitt taylor vince and vincent d'onofrio will be in the footage

i used to have arguments with a mate of mine about whether 9/11 was a conspiracy or not. i didnt think it was and he did as he'd recently seen "zeitgeist" and was now all about 9/11 being a conspiracy. then he would ask, "did you think the kennedy assassination was a conspiracy?". id say "yeah i think its likely" and then i was hit with "ahhh well if the US government would do that why wouldnt something like 9/11 be a conspiracy??" GROAN

well there actually are precedents for political leaders being killed by conspiracies, there's not really any precedent for a conspiracy as airtight and leak-proof as a government-planned 9/11 would have had to be. oh and plus there is actually no evidence at all that 9/11 was a conspiracy.

the lincoln assassination was a conspiracy: booth and five of his friends.

yes, incl the one who stabbed Seward.

is anyone watchin the CBS News webcast from 11/22/63?

I feel like it's been on for 50 years the entire month of November

Sunday morning w/ Jack Ruby could be innaresting

there are some plausible theories that booth had connections to the confederate secret service.

I wonder if there are any other interesting comparisons one could make between the Lincoln and Kennedy assassinations.

Meryl Streep showed interest in playing the heroes in each film adaptation.

GARFIELD was SHOT by an ASSAILANT in a TRAIN STATION while MCKINLEY was SHOT by an ASSAILANT STATIONED in a TRAIN of PEOPLE.

Time for FR33M4$0RY!!!!

I'm watching the CBS coverage from Saturday morning, and Marvin Kalb said, I think, that words explicitly referring to the "international Communist conspiracy" were in Oswald's original indictment's text. Then those words disappeared; "we do not know if that was at an official request."

Then Cronkite talked about LBJ's history of heart attacks.

Texas Theatre rescreens double bill, stops "War Is Hell" at point Oswald was arrested

pretty clear to me now

comments on that are quality

i used to have arguments with a mate of mine about whether 9/11 was a conspiracy or not.

i'd say a dozen guys from saudi arabia, egypt, and elsewhere spending years traveling around the world plotting three hijackings is the definition of a conspiracy.

or does the word "conspiracy" have to mean "crazypants theory" now?

outlandish conspiracy theories about Reptilians/Illuminati theories exist to make the REAL conspiracies like Chemtrails and the moon landing hoax look ridiculous

The real puppet masters sit back and laugh while we squirm

Man, Libra is looking less and less like fiction as time goes on

it's like Joseph Heller fanfic at this point

Barring a presidential block, the final files will be released on October 26, 2017.

Which is also Hillary Clinton's 70th birthday.

about a year ago I was finally convinced, for once and for all, that LHO did it, and did it alone. but now i've forgotten exactly what convinced me.

I tried to think of a good President Trump joke but couldn't.

Kennedy's as dead as that crab meat, the government's alive and breathing. You gonna line up with a dead man, Jimbo?

:D

fuck yeah!

haha tbh i am a relatively recent convert to the idea that it was a conspiracy and oswald was a patsy. it seems oddly fitting that most everyone who takes an interest in this subject ends up going back and forth from version to version indefinitely.

always loved the house special committee on assassinations' supposedly debunked conclusion: that it was probably a conspiracy, but definitely did not involve any of the parties in an attached comprehensive and ideologically plural list of suggested parties to the kennedy assassination: castro, exiled cubans, the cia, organized crime, the ussr, etc.

...and this guy Bertrand!

that is precisely the point of a long dining table

that is precisely the point of two brothers

oliver stone says one of the conspirators contacted him after he made his film to confess his role in the assassination:

hearing him talk is weird.

i guess i never got why he played the innocent card and didn't yell stuff like DEATH TO THE TYRANTS USSR IS #1 or something.

maybe cuz he was innocent?

lol

yeah oswald's behavior after his arrest does not make much sense if you assume he was a sincere castro supporter/wannabe commie hero

i mean did he think he was gonna get away with it?
