On the JFK thing, consider this....
Keeping it real simple and not getting into magic bullets or the mob or Castro, here is my problem with what and why it happened...
First off, simply, why was the top down in the first place?
And second off, who(m) made that decision about the top being left off?
Who drew up the motorcade route?
The top was off because it had stopped raining. Just like it was in every motorcade before that. It was standard practice. JFK wanted to be visible. Here he is in Ireland:
And here he is in Hawaii:
You're looking at from a 2013 viewpoint, not a 1963 viewpoint. In 1963 it was NOT unusual. Now we know better.
With all the theories, the sound analysis, the bullet trajectory analysis, film analysis, body autopsy, etc etc, I have never heard one explanation as to why the top of the car was down in the first place and whom was in charge of that decision?
Answer that, and you just might be onto something.
I don't care about all the detailed analysis, they prove nothing one way or the other, but the decision maker? There might be your smoking gun.
The decision maker to leave JFK so vulnerable that day was ......... JFK!!! He wanted visibility. He even wanted LESS protection from Secret Service after he got complaints in Manhattan about tying up traffic.
Who was this person? Who had the final say so as to the top being up or down? Who planned out the motorcade route? What was the background of this decision maker? Could he/she have had ties to a shady past? Could they have been bought off? Paid?
If you never had the route laid out as it was, and never had the top off, no assignation.
That is what I question. Keeping it simple, asking why, how and by whom were these basic decisions made in the first place?
I mean, an open top thru downtown Dallas passing below high rise buildings, and a route turn where the motorcade came to nearly a complete stop, and just below that open window in a building where no security staff were observing nor had the building been checked out before hand?
Seems a little off the norm, to say the least.
Again, out of the norm in 2013. Not in 1963.
That event was a tragedy, but if not during the motorcade route, then when?
In the parking lot of the Trade Mart? In the Trade Mart hall ways? Trade Mart entry way?
The Trade Mart kitchen?
And whom else had possibly been waiting for their chance at a clean shot before that successful fatal shot?
Waiting, but missing their opportunity?
I seriously doubt Kennedy was meant to return home back to Washington alive after that trip. One way or another, they were out to get him.
Someone knew. They, the Kennedy's probably suspected.
That is why Jackie stated, and this is another real clue never addressed, Jackie own words were, "I want them to see what they have done".
She knew. He suspected.
Jackie didnt KNOW anything.Unless you mean to imply that she knew he'd be killed that day? I'd say that's far less believable than the fact that Oswald got "lucky".
