Did the CIA assassinate JFK?

[Ray Mitcham]

In fact the senator gave in to 'three shots' and ' they were coming from high back at the building'.

No, Jerry. He just stated the shots  were coming from the rear.

The CIA did assassinate JFK.

There are clear motives: the failed Bay of Pigs operation and terminated plans to kill Fidel Castro. JFK was first mad at the CIA because of the Bay of Pigs and he never forgave the agency for the public embarrassment. He threatened to smash the CIA into a thousand pieces and scatter it into the wind. On top of this, there are contracts between the CIA and organized crime to assassinate Castro. JFK immediately terminated these plans and sent the FBI and law enforcement to break up the CIA training camps. There is no doubt that the two had growing conflict. After the assassination, the Warren Commission sat for ten months and never hired any investigators and relied on the FBI and CIA to investigate. To no surprise, they found themselves innocent. The agency never even disclosed information about the previous plans to kill Castro to the Commission. Let's not forget a possible connection between the CIA and Lee Harvey Oswald. Around September-October of 1963, Oswald went to Mexico City and attempted to get visas from the Soviet and Cuban embassies but he failed. The agency denied knowing about this trip but documents show that they did have pre-assassination knowledge. The CIA cannot be trusted. Based on their quick response, cover-ups, and withholding of important information from the Warren Commission, the CIA obviously has something to hide.

I believe there potentially were individuals connected to the CIA involved with a conspiracy to kill JFK including Lee Harvey Oswald.

And while the CIA as an organization likely didn’t authorize the conspiracy, they were forced to cover it up due to their connections to other possible suspects in Kennedy’s murder like William King Harvey or David Morales.

Willie Morris, 64, Writer on the Southern Experience
By Peter Applebome
Aug. 3, 1999

Willie Morris, the writer and editor whose life and work reveled in the endless contradictions of the South and the region's ghostlike hold on its native sons and daughters, died on Monday at St. Dominic Hospital in Jackson, Miss., at 64.

The cause was heart failure, said a hospital official.

Mr. Morris, who turned his childhood in Yazoo City, Miss., into a place almost as complex and resonant as William Faulkner's Yoknapatawpha County, went from a country boy to a Rhodes Scholar to a literary Wunderkind, becoming editor in chief of Harper's Magazine at age 32.

But just as Truman Capote famously said that all Southerners eventually come home, if only in a box, Mr. Morris returned to Mississippi in 1980 and never stopped exploring what he once described as ''the old warring impulses of one's sensibility to be both Southern and American.''......

The senator was not called to officially state anything...he just only issued the affidavit. Ray Mitcham is correct about his shot location. The shooting started just after the VP car had turned.  Perhaps Yarborough knew more than he revealed but we'll never know for sure.

I confirmed that Earl Brown and Elizabeth Cabell smelled gunpowder. So I suspect that McLaren may have gotten the Ralph Yarborough info from another source.

"Fanciful recreation from a movie".

I didn't realize that....... and I was wondering about Jackies......... thought it should have been smaller than that, lol

You didn't realize that butt-end view was part of a movie recreation? (I think that might be the one where Natalie Portman played Jackie)

And look at how far away from the 'Queen Mary' the Lincoln is in that recreation. Not even Usain Bolt on 'roids could sprint that fast. The limo took off like a shot: Hill actually mounted the limo within a few yards of the SS car. Not only that, who was in a position to take that photo during the actual event? No drones around in 1963, except for the politicians and conspiracy-mongers.
