JFK Assasination
Who was compelled and carried out the killing of former President John F. Kennedy? Did Lee Harvey Oswald act alone, or was there more than one person involved in the assassination? Although there have been many theories, I believe that the tragic murder of Kennedy was a conspiracy that not only involved Oswald, but also involved numerous intellectuals; all with the same motive.

To me this is all a conspiracy within a conspiracy given the people involved, their relations to the President, and their motive to cover their plan up. The assassination of John F. Kennedy will never be forgotten, nor will the many theories that still arise. Everyone has their beliefs, and mine have been formed by analyzing the theories of
