GENERAL ARTICLES =================================================================

Who killed JFK ?
Ward Dossche - 2:292/854

Roger Nelson would never forgive me if I didn't write an addendum
to last week's articles about his passing ... On November 22nd
1963 who killed JFK ?

We spent endless messages about the subject where we talked about
Jim Garisson, about Lee Harvey Oswald, the magic bullet, missing
autopsy reports, the Secret Service virtually stealing Kennedy's
remains from the local authorities in Dallas TX, the Warren Report,
... the more you thought about it all, instead of getting answers
there were more questions.

On Nov.22nd 2013, 50 years after the day, I visited Dallas and the
spot where it happened, I saw the pedestal where-upon Zapruder
stood when he made his infamous 8mm movie, visited the museum which
is housed in the former Texas Schoolbook Depository from where
Oswald allegedly shot, looked through the exact window (which has
now been made impossible for reasons unclear), and I looked-up to
the building from the spot where Kennedy was hit by the 3rd and
mortal round.

It's not rocket science to determine that a gunman operating an
old bolt-action rifle like a Mannlicher-Carcano was, to bang 2 more
bullets in the chamber, aquire the target again and score 3 out of
3 hits in 6-7 seconds. Not only that, the angle is difficult, the
visibility dubious and when you watch Zapruder's film with the 3rd
shot it is obvious Kennedy was mortally wounded from the front, not
from the back. The Zapruder film is clear ...

Roger said "I believe certain high ranking officials know who were
involved, but we may never have anything more than our suspicions.
In my mind, all the pieces of the puzzle now fit, but it is my
belief that the public may never know because of the crisis that
could arise."

Our conclusion was that LBJ, Lyndon Baines Johnson (Kennedy's
vice-president), who was to succeed JFK in case of "whatever",
most likely is the key-figure, for 3 reasons:

1. He had the motive
2. He had the most to gain by it (and wanted to become President
at any rate)
3. He had the powers to make the investigation derail

And Lee Harvey Oswald? Most likely, as he said himself, he was just
a patsy.

*1 IPv6 address: 2001:41d0:303:69c6:f1d0:2:400:2992


Notes:

To make an IPv6 connection to a node connected via 6to4 tunneling
one may have to force the mailer into IPv6 (-6 option in binkd's
node config for binkd up to 1.1a-96, -64 option for binkd 1.1a-97
and up). If the destination address is a 6to4 tunnel address
(2002::/16) many OSs default to IPv4 if an IPv4 address is present.

Very few people know of a semi-automatic Carcano which used the same ammunition (refer: Scotti Model X - Italian prototype). That I think was the second shooter's preference. (A semi-auto has an advantage that you may appreciate.) There were very few in circulation but several possibly in government armouries 'for evaluation'. Nudge, nudge...

Cheers,
Paul.
