Throughout our short, but great history there have been many significant events that have altered the course in which the nation’s future would be decided by. No one event more important than the action that took place on November 22, 1963. Not only did it cut the life short of what could have been our nation’s greatest President but it also turned already changing times for the worse. From this event two stories have emerged. First, the Warren Commission’s lone gunman theory and second the possibility of a conspiracy. A great leader once said “The great masses of the people will more easily fall victims to a great lie than a small one” (Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf). Here this statement couldn’t be more true. The conclusion of the Warren Commission was in my mind the grossest lie every forced on the American public. So I ask, what is the truth behind the assassination of our 35th President?

To begin to answer that question we must examine the day in question. Ironically, the night before President Kennedy and Kenneth O’Donnell, special assistant to the President and close friend, had a conversation about the risks of a motorc

from Oswald on the rifle. Lastly after the fact the FBI took 3 rifle experts and had them try to do the shooting that Oswald was said to do on that day. None of them could do it. This is also strange do to the fact that military records show Oswald to be a poor shot. A marksmen at best. All these factors along with many more tend to lean towards the fact of a conspiracy against the President.

This all seems a bit hard to swallow. The fact that our very own government could be a part in such actions. Oswald was quoted as saying “I’m just a patsy”. I think the American people should start believing that statement. The government files at the National Archive on the assassination are to be released in 2037. Jim Garrison, District Attorney of New Orleans and the only man to bring a prosecution in the assassination of President Kennedy, said “Let justice be served or the heaven’s fall, I seek the truth” (Marrs,516). This statement reflects my sentiment on this matter and hopefully in time the American public.

knoll but once again these statement were not put in the Warren Report. These conclusions are drawn from watching the Zapruda film and still doesn’t account for the remaining wounds in Gov. Connally. Jean Hill, a school teacher who was standing next to the President’s car, states “I heard four to six gunshots and I’m pretty used to guns. They weren’t echoes. They were different guns being fired” (Marrs,19). This statement here refutes the Warren Commission’s lone gunmen, three bullet theory. Not more than 45 minutes later Oswald is arrested for the murder of policeman J.D. Tippit and later charged with the assassination of the President. This is fast police work. But who is this Lee Harvey Oswald?
