There are many conspiracies that revolve around the assassination of the late President John F. Kennedy. Many believe the mafia was behind it, many believe a group of communists did it, and others believe that the CIA did it. Considering the facts, it seems like the only plausible group would be the CIA. After the dreadful Bay of Pigs invasion, a failed U.S. attempt to sabotage Cuba and overthrow Castro, JFK reportedly threatened to “splinter the CIA into a million pieces.” After the misfortune, the next year consisted of high improvements in the CIA. Only a little over a year later, the president was shot in Texas on November 22, 1963. During the year or so that the CIA was undergoing improvements, that was also a year that could have been dedicated to plotting the assassination of the president. Certain aspects from that dreadful day simply do not add up. For example, the route of the parade in the Dealey Plaza was changed last minute. The president was being transported through the parade in an open car. Several of the men who were part of Kennedy’s secret service have claimed that it was okay for him to be in an open car because it was a “different time.” I beg to differ. Two presidents had been assassinated prior to John F. Kennedy, and the CIA and secret service should have taken certain measures to assure the safety of their president. Also, the Warren Commission, which provides a detailed chronological report of what exactly happened that day, states that the secret service did not check all the buildings within a certain proximity, which they are required to do. It also records that the CIA was not “properly trained” to protect the president. It just doesn’t add up. Lee Harvey Oswald, who is assumed to be the lone gunman who killed the president, was transported so openly from his jail cell to his trial that Jack Ruby was able to shoot him at point blank range. If he truly was a key suspect and not just a man the CIA picked to pin the murder on, they would have taken certain precautions to be sure he made it to his trial. The CIA was involved in the assassination of the president, and eventually the real story will unfold.
