John F. Kennedy - Why Oswald didnt act alone
- 4 years ago
Lee Harvey Oswald fatally shot President John F. Kennedy – or so concluded the Warren Commission, the group convened by President Lyndon B. Johnson to investigate the assassination.
Officially, it was accepted that Oswald fired three shots from the window of the Texas Book Depository and had no accomplices. The commission didn’t nail down a specific motive, but said, “He was perpetually discontented with the world around him. Long before the assassination he expressed his hatred for American society and acted in protest against it."
Yet despite the commission’s findings, many still question the events of November 22, 1963 and what really happened at Dealey Plaza in Dallas. In 1979 a House Select Committee concluded that JFK's assassination was likely the work of a conspiracy, for example. Conspiracy theories abound, alleging either that Oswald was part of a larger organization working to take out the president or was, to use his term, a "patsy."
