Who killed John Fitzgerald Kennedy. This question can be considered as cryptic as the meaning of life. Does anyone know who killed Kennedy. The J.F.K Assassination is a conspiracy wrapped in a conspiracy, wrapped in an enigma. Can the people of the world serious accept what the U.S government has told them . Lee Harvey Oswald single handily killed the President of the U.S.A. Evidence shows that it seems possible that the American Central Intelligence Agency could have been involved in the president.s death. All the facts suggest that this assassination was not the work of one, Lee Harvey Oswald, but a higher power, one which had the clearance to change motorcade routes, fake photo.s and successfully cover-up the assassination until this very day.

John Fitzgerald Kennedy was born in Brookline, Massachusetts, on May 29, 1917. Graduating from Harvard in 1940, he entered the Navy. In 1943, when a Japanese destroyer sank his PT boat, Kennedy, despite injuries, led the survivors to safety. On his return from the war, John F. Kennedy became a democratic congressman for the Boston area, and in 1953 he advanced to the Senate. On September 12, 1953, John F. Kennedy Married Jacqueline Bouvier. John F. Kennedy worked hard inside his party and in 1961; JFK was appointed President of the United States of America.

No more than 1000 days into John F. Kennedy.s presidency, he was assassinated in Dealey Plaza, Dallas, Texas. Apparently by Lone Gunman, Lee Harvey Oswald.

It was the 22nd of November 1963, when President Kennedy was travelling through Dallas on a speech presenting tour. The president had previously been warned that the people of Dallas disliked him, and that the trip would be dangerous. Despite these warning, JFK saw it as a way to gain popularity and enhance his standing in the Southern states.

As President Kennedy disembarked Air Force One, he was escorted into an open limousine 2nd from the front of the Motorcade, where he was to be driven to a conference in the Trade Mart Building. The original route of the Motorcade was to travel straight down Main Street and into their intended destination. But, on the day of the assassination, the Motorcade made a very sharp 90 degree turn from Main, to Houston street, where the car was slowed down to 25 m/ph, then another sharp turn from Houston, to Elm street, whereby the car was slowed right down to 15 m/ph. Near halfway down Elm street, at approximately 12:31pm, 4 shots were fired. The first bullet struck Kennedy in the throat, the second passed through Governor John Connally.s chest and left wrist. The third bullet hit Kennedy in the front of the head, and the fourth was said to have missed all targets. All these bullets were said have been shot from the Texas School Book Depository.

The presidents car quickly sped up and rushed to Parkland Memorial hospital where Dr. Paul Peters and Dr. Clark tried their hardest to save JFK.s life. John Fitzgerald Kennedy was pronounced dead at 1:04pm.

All doctors who witnessed JFK.s wounds all state that the president.s head was partially destroyed, they say the back right side of the presidents head was missing, and that 20% of his brain was not intact.

Ambulance Officer Aubrey Rike explained that there were large arguments between the state and the Secret Service as to where the autopsy was to be performed. Dr. Rose, a very experienced doctor in autopsy.s demanded that the president.s body be examined in the Parkland Hospital; the Secret Service denied his request. Dr. Paul Peters quotes; .Had Dr. Rose of performed the autopsy immediately after Kennedy.s death, confusion over what direction and angle the bullet came from would be cleared up..

Later that day, the Secret Service illegally moved Mr. Kennedy.s body from Dallas to Washington D.C. This move included the use of 2 helicopters, for what reason, is largely unknown.

When the body arrived in Washington, there was speculation over the appearance of both, the wounds inflicted on JFK and the casket in which he arrived. Aubrey Rike remembers JFK being placed inside one of the most expensive Bronze caskets that was available in the Parklands hospital, and that he was wrapped in a white silk sheet. But when JFK arrived in Washington D.C, he was unloaded in a very cheap shipping casket, and inside the casket, JFK was wrapped in a Slate grey body bag. Which means, somewhere between Dallas and Washington D.C, the presidents body was tampered with. Further speculation arose over the descriptions of the president.s wounds from the eyewitnesses in Dallas and the .Official. autopsy photo.s released by the government. The Dallas doctors clearly state large exit wounds in the back right-hand side of the president.s head, yet the .Official. autopsy photo.s show a very clean entry and exit wound, and the wound seems to be near the right temple.

One week after President Kennedy.s Assassination Lyndon B. Johnson, the new formally appointed President ordered that a commission be assembled to examine the president.s assassination. This commission was to be headed by Chief Justice Warren.

The Warren Commission, after so-called .Investigation. announced that the Assassi
