After all, it was the acceptance of this unbelievable theory that literally paved the way for a coup d'etat of America. That is, if you can assassinate a president in broad daylight in a major American city by deploying an elaborate set of lies and get away with it, what and who is left that is not within the province of US government intelligence agencies and cohorts to destroy?
In its wake, JFK's assassination was the beginning of a new era of pessimism about the US government, including its Vietnam War, ongoing at that time, a war that JFK wished to withdraw from. Shortly after JFK's death, his timetable for a complete withdrawal was reversed by Lyndon Johnson and all the stops for additional mass murders were removed.
It was the "magic bullet" theory that gave the Warren Commission and subsequently much of America "permission to believe" that Oswald could amazingly aim and fire three shots from his bolt-action, Italian Army rifle, within a mere six seconds and hit JFK in the back and then in the head. One of the shots missed the targets entirely, hitting a sidewalk and sending a piece of concrete into the face of a distant bystander, who received a small scar from it. This is a matter of record.
That left only two shots, as it turns out, which had to have hit JFK twice.
Even though the FBI and the Secret Service had concluded there were three shots and three hits--JFK in the back, Connally in the back, and JFK in the head--so how to explain the miss that hit the bystander?
James Tague dictated that they had to account for all those wounds based upon the only shot they had available--the one that hit JFK in the back. Where that shot actually hit is the lynch-pin that refutes the "magic bullet" theory.
There are several side factors to consider as well. One is that the route of a presidential motorcade in any US City has to be completely scrutinized and made safe at some point before any visit. Open or blackened windows of buildings, open rooftops, any anomalies that provide opportunities for shooters should be checked out and cleared for safety by local Army Intelligence working with local police departments well before the visit.
In Dallas, in relation to the Dallas motorcade on November 22, 1963, a presidential route that had been set in stone was changed three days in advance. The new route required the presidential motorcade to turn right off of Main Street onto Houston Street, travel north one block, then make a sharp left northwest onto Elm Street, which led downward into Dealey Plaza, the Plaza of the Condors.
Astonishingly enough, as events played out, some sixty eye-witnesses would report that the limousine either dramatically slowed or came to an actual halt after shots had been fired. It was only after the shooting that it sped away to Parkland Hospital.
The Magic Bullet
As Fetzer, in his explosive article, observes, "Everyone has heard of the "magic bullet', which is the lynch-pin of the official account of the assassination of JFK presented by the Warren Commission. As Michael Baden, M.D., who chaired the medical panel for the House Select Committee on Assassinations when it re-investigated the case in 1977-78 remarked on the 40th observance of his death, if the "magic bullet' theory is false, then there had to have been at least six shots from at least three directions."
This study, based on a presentation made at Cambridge and published by a peer-reviewed international journal, demonstrates that, not only is the "magic bullet" theory false, but, based upon research reported in his three books on the assassination, JFK had a wound to the throat and another to his back and two hits to his head" [which alone makes four shots, theoretically the end of the story].
In addition "Connally had an entry wound in his back, [a fifth shot?]. He had a broken rib, an exit wound in his chest [its result?], a wound to his right wrist [a sixth shot or still the same bullet changing trajectories?] and a bullet fragment embedded in his left thigh [from where? another shot?]. This is essential to understanding the outlandishness of its creator's claims.
Since JFK had wounds from shots fired from in front and from behind, while John Connally had at least one hit from the side while another shot missed and injured James Tague, then there were at least six shots from at least three directions.
The magic bullet" theory is the weakest link in the entire chain of events in the assassination. Break that link and you break the government's elaborate chain of events into pure fraud. It's worth a closer look.
