The Mafia

Did la cosa nostra hate JFK enough to take him out (and brother RFK a few years later)?
Supporters of this theory point to figures like New Orleans kingpin Carlos Marcello, who was
called to testify before a Senate committee on organized crime but took the Fifth on the stand;
RFK was chief counsel to the committee, and then-Senator JFK was a committee member.
Chicago mobster Sam Giancana also had Kennedy connections; Oswald assassin Jack Ruby, a
Dallas nightclub owner, was also alleged to have mob ties. Never forget: Ruby died in prison in
1967 while awaiting a new trial after his first conviction was overturned. How convenient.

The CIA
Oh, to be a fly on the wall at CIA
HQ during the 1960s, privy to all the
(failed) Castro assassination plans,
including that one to blow him up
during a visit with Ernest
Hemingway's widow on the late
author's Cuban farm. Could the CIA
have also plotted to do away with
JFK, a thorn in the organization's
side post-Bay of Pigs Invasion?
Could it have succeeded?
On March 1, 1967, businessman
Clay Shaw, head of the International
Trade Mart in New Orleans, was
arrested and charged with conspiring
to assassinate President John F.
Kennedy by New Orleans District
Attorney Jim Garrison. Three days later on March 4, the Italian left-wing newspaper Paese Sera
published a story alleging that Shaw was linked to the CIA through his involvement in the Centro
Mondiale Commerciale, a subsidiary of Permindex in which Shaw was a board member.
According to Paese Sera, the CMC had been a front organization developed by the CIA for
transferring funds to Italy for "illegal political-espionage activities and had attempted to depose
French President Charles de Gaulle in the early 1960s. On March 6, the newspaper printed other
allegations about individuals it said were connected to Permindex, including Louis Bloomfield
whom it described as "an American agent who now plays the role of a businessman from Canada
(who) established secret ties in Rome with Deputies of the Christian Democrats and neo-Fascist
parties." The allegations were retold in various newspapers associated with the Communist
parties in Italy (l'Unit), France (L'Humanit), and the Soviet Union (Pravda), as well as leftist
papers in Canada and Greece, prior to reaching the American press eight weeks later. Max
Holland stated that Paese Sera's allegations connecting Shaw to the CIA eventually led to
Garrison implicating the CIA in a conspiracy to assassinate Kennedy.

The Soviets
This theory agrees Oswald pulled the trigger
but that he did it under orders from his
Soviet overlords. The Communist
sympathizer did defect to the Soviet Union in
1959, but changed his mind in 1961 and
returned to the US. Was his change of heart a
fiction, designed to cover up his KGBsanctioned mission to kill Kennedy?
The Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962 gave the
Soviet security agency KGB very good
reasons not to like Kennedy. A version of the
theory also suggests that Oswald, an exMarine who tried to defect to the Soviet
Union in the late 1950s, was acting as a KGB
operative.

Illuminati
The secretive powerbrokers who control the world are obvious candidates for a JFK conspiracy
theory. The president fell foul of the Illuminati, it has been suggested, because he wanted to end
the Vietnam War, a conflict that was paying the "shadowy bankers" handsome dividends. The
Illuminati were also "angered" by JFK's attempts to "rein in" the power of the US Federal
Reserve, triggering a deadly backlash.
Illuminati Goals:
1. To establish a One World Government/New World Order with a unified church and monetary
system under their direction.
2. To bring about the utter destruction of all national identity and national pride, which was a
primary consideration if the concept of a One World Government was to work.
3. To engineer and bring about the destruction of religion, and more especially, the Christian
Religion, with the one exception, their own creation, as mentioned above.
4. To establish the ability to control of each and every person through means of mind control and
what Zbignew Brzezinski called techonotronics, which would create human-like robots and a
system of terror which would make Felix Dzerzinhski's Red Terror look like children at play.
5. To bring about the end to all industrialization and to end the production of nuclear generated
electric power in what they call "the post-industrial zero-growth society". Excepted are the
computer- and service industries.
6. To encourage, and eventually legalize the use of drugs and make pornography an "art-form",
which will be widely accepted and, eventually, become quite commonplace.

Kennedys Legacy
John Fitzgerald Kennedy (May 29, 1917 November 22,
1963), commonly known as Jack Kennedy or by his initials
JFK, was an American politician who served as the 35th
President of the United States from January 1961 until his
assassination in November 1963. Notable events that
occurred during his presidency included the Bay of Pigs
Invasion, the Cuban Missile Crisis, the Space Raceby
initiating Project Apollo (which later culminated in the
moon landings), the building of the Berlin Wall, the
African-American Civil Rights Movement, and the
increased US involvement in the Vietnam War.
After military service as commander of Motor Torpedo Boats PT-109 and PT-59 during World
War II in the South Pacific, Kennedy represented Massachusetts's 11th congressional district in
the U.S. House of Representatives from 1947 to 1953 as a Democrat. Thereafter, he served in the
U.S. Senate from that state from 1953 until 1960. Kennedy defeated Vice President and
Republican candidate Richard Nixon in the 1960 U.S. Presidential Election. At age 43, he was
the youngest man to have been elected to the office, the second-youngest president (after
Theodore Roosevelt), and the first person born in the 20th century to serve as president. To date,
Kennedy has been the only Roman Catholic president and the only president to have won a
Pulitzer Prize.
Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas, Texas on November 22, 1963. Lee Harvey Oswald was
arrested that afternoon and charged with the crime that night. Jack Ruby shot and killed Oswald
two days later, before a trial could take place. The FBI and the Warren Commission officially
concluded that Oswald was the lone assassin. The United States House Select Committee on
Assassinations (HSCA) agreed with the conclusion that Oswald fired the shots which killed the
president, but also concluded that Kennedy was probably assassinated as the result of a
conspiracy.
Since the 1960s, information concerning Kennedy's private life has come to light. Details of
Kennedy's health problems with which he struggled have become better known, especially since
the 1990s. Although initially kept secret from the general public, reports of Kennedy being
unfaithful in marriage have garnered much press. Kennedy ranks highly in public opinion ratings
of U.S. presidents but there is a gap between his public reputation and his reputation among
academics.
