Other conspiracies include the Chariot-of-the-Gods type. Ancient, southern people, who were almost certainly black, could not possibly build anything bigger than mud huts, could they? Did they not just sit about waiting for us to come and move their society forward? The ruins of Zimbabwe were a great example. "White men must have lived here before these people ever came ...look at this architecture ".Kennedy. The very wonderfully acted, but totally misleading film, JFK, introduced a whole new generation to the concept of conspiracy. How could a strange wee guy with an Italian pop gun, achieve what the mighty Khrushchev failed to do with a thousand missiles? He had bought his rifle from the back of a comic book!
It must be bigger. It 's too unbalanced. It must have been a Cuban or Mafia or CIA or Russian plot. Oswald had even been to Russia! We loved Kennedy. We voted for him. Well, yes and no. Polls taken after his death had every American except Nixon and his wife voting for him in retrospect. Of course it was closer than that, but a death is apparently good for your legacy. I wonder if Bush has thought this through, as his numbers sink.
"This hound don 't hunt. " was the line in JFK, but it does, indeed hunt. The Italians make good machinery as every Ferrari driver will know. Oswald was trained by the US Army as a marksman. His records show he was well capable of the hit. The "magic bullet " was completely explainable, using reconstruction and graphics unavailable in 1963.
The Zapruder film has been analysed in ways that were unimaginable at the time. Oswald killed Kennedy. The public death of Oswald was pure theatre and further "proof " that others were involved, but no, Ruby was simply the first televised person willing to swap an ordinary, if criminal, life, for international fame and prison-based glory.
