The JFK assassination, now 54 years later, is still a subject that generates a lot of emotion, curiosity and speculation. Rightly so – the event was of extreme significance and is a telling reminder that the people who run this world are far above the level of prime ministers and presidents. Like 9/11, the JFK assassination was a severe blow to the psyche of the public in America and the world. It was mass trauma, not only crafted to remove a man who opposed the New World Order manipulators in many ways, but also designed to shatter innocence and send a powerful message: that the controllers can kill whomever they want and get away with it by controlling the key power centers of society (White House, CIA, FBI, Texas state governorship, local police and sheriff’s departments, etc.) so that any subsequent investigation will go nowhere.

The implications of the JFK assassination remain large to this day, a fact lost on Noam Chomsky when he stated “Who knows? Who cares? Why does it matter?… The evidence against [a high-level conspiracy to kill JFK] is overwhelming” — and thus revealed himself to be either unintentionally narrow-minded or an intentional gatekeeper of truth.

Hollywood actor Bruce Willis summed it up much better than Chomsky when he declared: “They still haven’t caught the guy that killed Kennedy… I’ll get killed for saying this, but I’m pretty sure those guys are still in power, in some form. The entire government of the United States was co-opted”.

Indeed – it was co-opted, and still is.

Why The JFK Assassination Still Matters Today

So, why does it still matter today? Quite simply, because the killers are still at large and on the loose. I don’t necessarily mean the actual killers or even the actual conspirators coordinating them, but rather, the same shady families, bloodlines, organizations and Secret Societies that executed the murder.

The JFK assassination was a coup d’etat. The New World Order conspirators took over the US Government in broad daylight, and managed to escape scot free, only needing to sacrifice a few of the lower men in their conspiracy. The Mafia, CIA, FBI, the Federal Reserve and military-industrial-intelligence complex (including secret groups like MJ-12) in general are just as out-of-control today as they were in JFK’s time, if not more so. The Bush bloodline has become even more entrenched in American politics, not less. The same group of white-collar thugs and criminals still have their hands on the reins of power.

The effects of the JFK assassination can still be felt today just living in the modern United States, watching it descend more and more into a police state of surveillance and tyranny.

A Brief Background to the JFK Assassination

Thousands of books have been written on the subject of the JFK assassination, so it’s obviously far beyond the scope of this article to cover it all. Instead, this article briefly summarizes the who, how andwhy. Before getting into the who, people unfamiliar with the JFK assassination will need a brief background on John F. Kennedy.

To begin with, JFK was maneuvered into power by his father, Joe Kennedy, a shady character in his own right, and a former US ambassador who made a fortune from importing alcohol into the US in the days after prohibition. Kennedy had developed enough power and contacts to push his son into the candidacy – but Joe and John had to meet and cut deals with various groups like the Mafia in order for John to get into power. This would later come back to haunt him when he double-crossed the Mafia and by sending his brother Bobby (who was Attorney General from 1961-1964) after them. JFK was highly beloved and respected, but like any human, he was not perfect. Due to suffering from Addison’s disease, he was dependent on a daily array of numerous Big Pharma prescription drugs (including painkillers and stimulants). He was also a sex addict – the list of his known mistresses was reportedly 33 at the time of his death.

However, despite his vices, Kennedy had courage and principle. He learnt pretty quickly that the military-industrial complex (to which outgoing President Eisenhower referred) was out of control, and had seized the reins of power in the US – especially the CIA. After the Bays of Pigs disaster in 1961, and almost being dragged to the point of nuclear war with Russia during the Cuban missile crisis in 1962, JFK quickly wisened up to the shocking truth that psychopaths occupied high positions of power in America, and that many of them belonged to a close-knit network of Secret Societies. JFK wanted to pull out of Vietnam, making enemies in the military-industrial complex whose profits back then and still today depend on constant war.

He made another great enemy when he sacked Allen Dulles, head of the CIA, in November 1961, and made still more powerful enemies in the international banking elite when he tried to override their privately owned Federal Reserve bank with Executive Order 11110 in June 1963. Here is a partial excerpt from it:

“The authority vested in the President by paragraph (b) of section 43 of the Act of May 12, 1933, as amended (31 U.S.C. 821(b)), to issue silver certificates against any silver bullion, silver, or standard silver dollars in the Treasury not then held for redemption of an outstanding silver certificates, to prescribe the denominations of such silver certificates, and to coin standard silver dollars and subsidiary silver currency for their redemption.”

Some believe this brave and informed speech, dubbed “The President and the Press”, given by Kennedy in 1961, set the wheels in motion for the JFK assassination:

“For we are opposed around the world by a monolithic and ruthless conspiracy that relies on covert means for expanding its sphere of influence – on infiltration instead of invasion, on subversion instead of elections, on intimidation instead of free choice, on guerrillas by night instead of armies by day. It is a system which has conscripted vast human and material resources into the building of a tightly knit, highly efficient machine that combines military, diplomatic, intelligence, economic, scientific and political operations.

Its preparations are concealed, not published. Its mistakes are buried, not headlined. Its dissenters are silenced, not praised. No expenditure is questioned, no rumor is printed, no secret is revealed.”

JFK seemed to bump up against this “monolithic and ruthless conspiracy” in many ways, making many powerful enemies. Let us now turn our attention to the who of the JFK assassination and name them.

The Who of the JFK Assassination

So who killed JFK? Kennedy made numerous enemies, including the CIA and the Mafia (basically one and the same thing), the Federal Reserve and the forever war-mongering military-industrial-intelligence complex in general. According to sources such as LBJ’s (Lyndon Baines Johnson) mistress Madeleine Duncan Brown, who was also the mother of LBJ’s illegitimate son, the night before the JFK assassination, a group of men gathered at the house of Dallas oil man Clint Murchison. Many of the conspirators were among them. They included:

  • Clint Murchison himself, who stood to lose a fortune if Kennedy changed the oil depletion allowance;
  • Haroldson Lafayette Hunt, Texas oil tycoon, in the same position as Murchison;
  • FBI chief J. Edgar Hoover, who had invested millions into Murchison’s oil business, and who knew the Kennedy wanted to replace him;
  • Vice-president LBJ (who had ordered 8 people to be murdered, including his sister, and was about to be found out before JFK’s death);
  • Texas Governor John Connally;
  • Dallas Mayor Earle Cabell (brother of CIA Deputy Director Charles Cabell, whom Kennedy had fired);
  • Richard Nixon, who had lost the 1960 election to JFK;
  • The 2 Brown Brothers, of Brown Brothers/Harriman, who were involved along with the Bushes in funding the Nazis;
  • Joseph Sevilla, head of the Dallas mafia;
  • John McCloy, head of Chase-Manhattan Bank, a confirmed Nazi who shared a box with Hitler in the 1936 Olympic Games;
  • Carlos Moncello, Mafia don;
  • Jack Ruby (Rubinstein), who later killed the patsy Lee Harvey Oslwald on live TV, and who worked for Mafia boss Sam Giancana;
  • Malcolm Wallace, world-class marksman, serial killer and LBJ hitman, whose fingerprints were found on the weapon in the Texas School Book Depository.

Interestingly, Madeleine quotes LBJ as saying, as he left that fateful meeting, that “after tomorrow those SOBs [sons of bitches – the Kennedys] will never embarrass me again. That’s no threat – that’s a promise!”

Then we have the deathbed confession of CIA agent E. Howard Hunt (of Operation 40), who was also highly involved in the JFK assassination plot and later in the Watergate burglary. Hunt named CIA operatives Cord Meyer (whose wife was apparently having an affair with JFK), David Morales and William Harvey as being involved as gunmen. Hunt also hired Frank Sturgis and Bernard Barker. Other people involved in the JFK assassination were Dallas Sheriff Bill Decker, Dallas Police Chief George Lumpkin, the men that New Orleans District Attorney tried to prosecute (Clay Shaw, David Ferrie and Guy Banister), Joseph Milteer (see FBI agent Don Adams’ research on this) and presidential limousine driver William Greer, the secret service agent who slowed down and brought the limousine to a stop after the first shot was fired. This action alone, in violation of secret service protocol, allowed the subsequent sniper shots to successfully complete the JFK assassination.

The Who, How and Why of the JFK Assassination - CIA's Operation 40 Assassination Squad

Researcher Ole Dammegard has done a great job exposing CIA Operation 40, a super-secret team of assassins composed of around 40 crack CIA agents, created in the late 1950s by President Eisenhower and VP Nixon. It was behind many of the most famous high-profile assassinations of the last 6 decades, including the JFK assassination, as well as those of MLK, RFK, John Lennon, Che Guervera, Bob Marley and more. Dammegard named the exact names and positions of the gunmen at Dealey Plaza on November 22nd, 1963 in this radio interview with Roxy Lopez (around the 34-minute mark) as follows, which closely corresponds to this list and also this one in his article for Veterans Today:

Dal-Tex Building

George Bush was in this building. The men on the 2nd floor were:

  • Chucky Nicoletti (Chicago mafia, gunman/shooter);
  • Nestor Izquierdo (Operation 40, Cuban mercenary, spotter);
  • Johnny Roselli (link between Chicago mob and CIA);

Texas School Book Depository Building

The men on the 6th floor were:

  • Eladio del Valle (Operation 40, gunman/shooter);
  • Hermionos de Garcia (Operation 40, exiled Cuban, spotter);
  • Richard Cain (Chicago mafia);

Grassy Knoll/Picket Fence Area

  • Frank Fiorini or “Sturgis” (Operation 40) or Rosco White (Dallas police);
  • James Files (gunman/shooter);
  • Lucien Sarti (Marseilles mafia assassin, gunman/shooter);
  • Bernard Baker (Operation 40, Watergate burglar);
  • Harry Weatherford;
  • Roy Hargraves (Operation 40, “Umbrella Man”);
  • Charles Harrelson (father of actor Woody Harrelson);
  • Felipe Vidal Santiago (Operation 40, exiled Cuban, who also took the alias of Charles Morgan);

Storm Drain/Sewer

  • Curtis Crayford (brought in by Jack Ruby);
  • Jack Allen Lawrence.

This summary contains a fuller list of all the people involved in the JFK assassination.

Masterminds of the JFK Assassination

The above people were some of the main conspirators, or at the very least knew about the planned JFK assassination in advance and were in favor of it. However, evidence shows that the actual masterminds of the JFK assassination were probably more like these 4 men:

  • Allen Dulles (CIA);
  • David Atlee Phillips (CIA);
  • George H. W. Bush (CIA); and
  • Sam Giancana (Mafia).

Allen Dulles was an elite lawyer who co-wrote the Treaty of Versailles – the one that severely punished Germany for WW1 and created fertile grounds for German discontent, cheap German stocks, the rise of a tyrant like Hitler and WW2. As has been well documented by people like Anthony Sutton, Wall Street funded the rise of the Nazis, and helped ensure many of them escaped at the end of WW2 into America under Operation Paperclip. Dulles became a director of the elite think tank Council on Foreign Relations in 1927, and later in 1950, Eisenhower promoted him to CIA director, where with Nazi assistance he helped to create the MK-Ultra mind control programs. He was rumored to be head of MJ-12, in charge of advanced UFO and ET technology. David Atlee Phillips became the CIA’s head of operations for the Western Hemisphere, head of Operation 40 and Lee Harvey Oswald’s handler. Sam Giancana was a Chicago Mafia boss who was approached by the CIA to assassinate Cuban president Fidel Castro. Giancana reportedly said that the CIA and the Cosa Nostra Mafia were “different sides of the same coin” and that “the CIA and the mafia are one organization who keep a low profile while they control the whole world as a business”.

As Francis Conolly narrates in the excellent film JFK to 911 – Everything Is A Rich Man’s Trick:

“[The spy agents of the US Government] function essentially as a goon squad of mercenaries and murderers, hardly any different to Hitler’s gestapo, and are used a private intelligence service and as personal hit men for America’s richest families – their only role being to cover up the dirty tricks which the rich people are playing on their fellow countrymen, every day.”

The role of George Bush is central. John Hankey explores the evidence in his film Dark Legacy: George Bush and the Murder of John Kennedy. We know that Bush was working at the CIA in 1963 (despite his claims under oath that he only began there in 1974) from this declassified FBI memo written by J. Edgar Hoover which names him as being part of the CIA, supervising “some anti-Castro group” that was implicated in (or responsible for) the JFK assassination. This declassified document (scroll to bottom) places Bush in Dallas on the day of the shooting, 11/22/1963. Russ Baker also provides more evidence of Bush’s involvement in the JFK assassination. George Bush, like his father Prescott and like Averell Harriman, was a member of the Skull ‘n’ Bones Club (which engaged in sexual Satanic ritual or black magic) – the exact kind of secret society JFK was speaking against in his 1961 speech. It seems George Bush was the man in charge of operations on the ground that fateful day in Dallas.

The ‘How’ of the JFK Assassination

It is incredibly naive to think that a lone nutter (Lee Harvey Oswald, as the official narrative goes) would have enough resources, skill and opportunity to kill a US President, given all the protection that office is afforded, and all the intelligence the Government receives about planned criminal activity. If you examine all the facts and details of the JFK assassination, you’ll find evidence that many aspects were controlled by an unseen force. This is how real power kills – it allows or makes certain things happen that would not otherwise, it creates conditions needed for the crime, and then it controls the investigation afterwards to cover it up and point investigators in the wrong direction.

Look at this video where the 2 Secret Service agents Donald Lawton and Clint Hill, who were the bodyguards on either side of the presidential vehicle, were ordered to stand down, right before the car turned from Houston St. onto Elm St. (where JFK was killed). This prevented them from doing their job as human shields to the president, and allowed the multiple assassins a clear shot. The same phenomenon can be seen with the Dallas Police Force itself. Certain officers who were in on the plot removed key evidence from the scene. The same thing occurred afterwards with the handling of the body. The conspirators had key agents or moles within many different organizations, all bound in an occult network by Secret Society oaths, to which they pledged a higher allegiance than their purported allegiance to the US Republic, the Constitution, the President or even their job tasks.

Sniper Shot from the Dealey Storm Drain

Of the many theories as to how the killers managed to kill JFK that day, the one which best fits the evidence is put forth very eloquently by Francis Conolly in his film JFK to 911 Everything Is A Rich Man’s Trick. Conolly reveals (at the 1:55:35 mark) how at least 8 different groups of snipers (who fired 16 shots in 4 separate stages) were strategically placed around Dealey Plaza (in the Dal Tex building, the Texas School Book Depository building, on the grassy knoll and in the storm drain) to ensure that many angles were covered and that JFK could not escape. While the earlier sniper shots from the first 2 buildings failed to hit Kennedy in the head, a shot from the storm drain (at road level) did. It is the famous shot seen in the Zapruder film where JFK’s head is knocked UP and to the left (not down and to the left as you would expect if the shot had come from the higher grassy knoll area). You can clearly see this starting around frame 323. Conolly even names the 2 assassins who crawled through the sewer to get to the position.

The Who, How and Why of the JFK Assassination - Snipers

Another man who was in on the plot was driver William Greer, who – as the Zapruder film shows – turned around twice to see the condition of the President, and who – as the Zapruder film deliberately does not show – intentionally slowed down (in total violation of protocol) so that the assassins could make their kill shots. The reason the Zapruder film does not show the presidential vehicle almost coming to a halt is because the Zapruder film has been tampered with (for further evidence of this, check out this). Before he died, Bill Cooper analyzed the Zapruder film and used it as proof that Greer turned around and shot the President, due to what looked like a metal shining object (a gun) in Greer’s hand. However, this seems unlikely or impossible, since if Greer had shot JFK, the angle of the shot would have made JFK’s head go up and to the right, not up and to the left as actually occurred.

Once JFK was killed, the “job” was not over; the conspirators now had the grisly task of taking forensic control over JFK’s body and autopsy. This is where Dallas police officer and JFK lookalike J.D. Tippit (unfortunately for him) enters the story. Researcher Robert Morningstar discovered that Tippet so resembled Kennedy that even his friends called him “JFK”. Tippit was killed shortly after JFK so the conspirators could perform a body switch.

Body Switch: The JFK Assassination was a Triple Assassination

The JFK assassination was, in fact, a triple assassination or triple sacrifice in the open-air temple of Dealey Plaza. Kennedy, Oswald and Tippit were all murdered for different reasons. Patsy Lee Harvey Oswald was murdered on live TV by Jack Ruby (mafia) so that he wouldn’t spill the beans and declare what he knew of the plot. Tippit, however, was murdered because the conspirators had decided they needed his exact corpse to do the body switch with JFK’s body – and he looked so similar they thought they could do the switch without anyone noticing. In this interview with Jeff Rense (9:20 mark), Robert Morningstar mentions how there used to be footage from Tippit interviewing a suspect on the Grassy Knoll – footage which later got permanently erased down the memory hole. This may be because Tippit was interviewing a man who had said he was Secret Service, but he had dirty, greasy fingernails, looked like a mechanic and in all likelihood was one of the many conspirators using fake Secret Service IDs.

[For the next 4 paragraphs, the numbers in brackets refer to the minute mark in the film JFK to 911 Everything Is A Rich Man’s Trick.]

Right after JFK was killed, his body was rushed to the Dallas Parkland Hospital. To the medical professionals there, such as Dr. Charles Crenshaw (2:00 mark), it was immediately obvious that JFK was shot from the front – there was a tiny bullet hole right below his larynx in addition to the front temple shot. Meanwhile, the conspirators had arranged for Tippit to be killed with a bullet wound to the top right of his temple just like JFK. Tippit’s body was taken from the Methodist hospital to the Parkland, then surreptitiously loaded onto Air Force 2, where the most highly skilled doctor in reconstructive surgery and embalming, mortician John Melvin Liggett, was waiting to perform postmortem surgery (2:05).

We may never know exactly how the conspirators did it, but one theory is that just as the coffin carrying JFK’s cadaver was about to be loaded onto Air Force 1, the people surrounding the dead president including his wife Jackie Kennedy were told to rush forward to be at the brief swearing in of former VP and now new President Lyndon Johnson. This was a ruse to distract people so JFK’s body could be loaded onto Air Force 2, alongside Tippit’s (see also Phillip Nelson‘s article on LewRockwell.com).

JFK/Tippit Cadaver: Botched Job, Fake Autopsy

According to Conally, Liggett most probably decided that a “botched job” was the best he could deliver. The point of the body switch was to frame Oswald, and make it look like the shot had entered form behind or at the side, rather than from the front. Liggett shaved eyebrows, brought forward Tippit’s receding hairline and made other adjustments while flying mid-air, thousands of feet high (2:08). However, the conspirators made a mistake upon landing; instead of putting Tippit’s body in the same expensive, wooden bronze coffin as JFK’s, they put it in an plain, grey, metal coffin. Thus, the medics who received the casket as Bethesda, Maryland report getting “JFK’s body” (really Tippit’s body) in a grey coffin – not the same wooden one it was loaded into when it left Dallas! See the testimony of Dallas ambulance driver Aubrey Rike (2:12) and Bethesda mortuary technician Paul O’Connor (2:12) to confirm this.

Honest FBI agents O’Neill and Sibert (2:12) testified that “the body seemed to have undergone surgery prior to autopsy mainly in the head area”, and Commander James J. Humes testified “the moment he touched the head [of JFK], pieces of the skull fell down on to the autopsy table.” That would only have been possible if surgery had been done before the autopsy – and the only chance would have been Liggett aboard Air Force 2 for those few hours it took to transport the body from Dallas to Maryland/Washington DC. Later on, witnesses reported that when shown the body, Bobby Kennedy scoffed and said “it doesn’t look anything like him”, while Jackie exclaimed “it isn’t Jack!”

The Who, How and Why of the JFK Assassination - The Warren Commission

Cover-up: The Farce that Was the Warren Commission

The mentality of the “evil genius” that pulled off the JFK conspiracy was also very evident in the clever way they controlled the aftermath investigations. It was a Freemasonic-CIA affair all the way to the very end. Freemason LBJ appointed Freemason Earl Warren to lead the commission and lend it his name, giving it a sense of prestige (Warren was a Supreme Court Justice). It also avoided naming the Commission the “Dulles Commission”, although it would have been a more accurate name!

According to Russ Baker, Warren didn’t want to take the job, but LBJ cajoled him into it:

“Warren resisted LBJ’s call to service, but finally acquiesced, leading the panel to the conclusions it reached.  To get Warren to say yes, Johnson had warned the justice that Oswald might be tied, through an alleged Mexico City visit, to the Soviets and Cubans. He implied that this could lead to nuclear war if level heads did not prevail. As Johnson explained in a taped telephone conversation with Senator Richard Russell, himself reluctant to join the panel:

“Warren told me he wouldn’t do it under any circumstances … He came down here and told me no – twice. And I just pulled out what [FBI director] Hoover told me about a little incident in Mexico City … And he started crying and he said, “I won’t turn you down. I’ll just do whatever you say.”

“And that got Warren— and the public trust he brought— on board.”

The very fact that JFK assassination mastermind Allen Dulles was a member of the 9-man commission shows how deeply corrupt and farcical the whole thing was. In addition to Freemason Warren and Freemason-CIA Dulles, the other 7 members (see image above) were 33° Freemason Gerald Ford (future US President), Freemason-CIA John McCloy (one of the conspirators at Murchison’s house the night before), Richard Russell, John Cooper, Hale Boggs, Arlen Specter and David Belin. On top of all that, 33° Freemason J. Edgar Hoover was the man (along with CIA Director at the time John McCone) responsible for supplying the data to the Commission to begin with.

It is clear to everyone (even those in the mainstream media) that the CIA covered up the Kennedy assassination. A recent article on Politico reveals how John McCone hid evidence from the Warren Commission – and the CIA has admitted it. The Politico article is based on evidence given by CIA historian David Robarge (a more mainstream historian), who claims the coverup was intended to keep the Commission focused on “what the agency believed at the time was the best truth – that Lee Harvey Oswald, for as yet undetermined motives, had acted alone in killing John Kennedy.” However, this “best truth” idea is just another obfuscation – many men on the commission knew full well what had happened and were in damage control mode. Roberge showed that McCone ensured the CIA would only provide very selective assistance to the Warren Commission, in order to completely compromise the investigation. Robarge also thinks that McCone withheld vital information relating to various CIA plots to assassinate Fidel Castro, which may well be linked to JFK’s assassination.

The Who, How and Why of the JFK Assassination

The Why of the JFK Assassination

When it comes to the Kennedy assassination, there are a plethora of motives; many different agencies, groups and individuals wanted JFK killed. Here’s an overview of the main ones that may help answer the why of the Kennedy assassination:

1. Kennedy Assassination Motives: The CIA-Nazi Group

The CIA (Central Intelligence Agency) has always functioned like a private company to protect the interests of the rich who founded it and run it (or who have friends who do). Right from the start, when the CIA emerged out of prior agencies like the OSS (Office of Strategic Services), Operation Paperclip smuggled around 1600 Nazis out of defeated Germany at the end of WWII and put them into high places in the American scientific and intelligence communities. The CIA has always had its fair share of Nazis, Nazi funders and Nazi sympathizers. JFK felt tricked and betrayed by the CIA after the failed Bay of Pigs invasion; he fired CIA Director Allen Dulles, CIA Deputy Director for Plans Richard Bissell and CIA Deputy Director Charles Cabell (brother of Dallas mayor Earle Cabell). Kennedy additionally stated that he wanted to “splinter the CIA into a thousand pieces and scatter it into the winds”. JFK also ran afoul of the Secret Societies that run America and the world; the CIA had its fair share of “Bonesmen” (from the Skull ‘n’ Bones Club) such as Averill Harriman and George Bush.

2. Kennedy Assassination Motives: Zionist Israel

In addition to rubbing the Nazis the wrong way, JFK also made an enemy of the Zionists. Thus, he was not more on the side of the Nazi arm of the NWO, or the Zionist arm of the NWO; he stood against the New World Order in its entirety, regardless of which faction was trying to seize power. JFK told David Ben Gurion, the Israeli President at the time, that he wanted US officials to inspect Dimona, the site, or one of the sites, of Israel’s stockpile of nuclear weapons. Nuclear Dimona is an open secret, despite Israel’s “official” policy of neither confirming nor denying whether they have nuclear weapons, and refusing to sign the nuclear non-proliferation treaty. Ben Gurion and the Zionists, naturally, did not like JFK’s position at all – and it is important to note that the most powerful family of the NWO, the Rothschilds, set up Israel from the start and still control it to this day.

3. Kennedy Assassination Motives: Vietnam and the Military-Industrial Complex

JFK definitely made enemies with the Military Industrial complex – not just the CIA as covered above, but entire arms industry in general, with all its numerous investors. After the Bays of Pigs fiasco and Cuban missile crisis, which brought the world to the brink of nuclear war, JFK become staunchly anti-war and pro-peace. In speeches he stressed that the US needed to challenge the Soviet Union not to an arms race, but to a de-escalation and peace race. He emphasized the importance of respecting others’ cultures even if we didn’t like their form of Government (referring to Russia). He wanted to pull out of Vietnam and stop the war machine. Sadly, his successor and assassination co-conspirator LBJ escalated the Vietnam War (with the fake Gulf of Tonkin incident) to the delight of the military fat cats, who put just enough US troops in Vietnam so the line could never move forward, and who meanwhile smuggled plane-loads of heroin to fuel their drug running schemes.

4. Kennedy Assassination Motives: Federal Reserve

Jim Marrs first widely brought to light the stunning piece of information that JFK has issued EO #11110 (as discussed in part 1). There could hardly be a greater motive for the Kennedy assassination than JFK making moves for the US Government to regain control over the printing press and issuance of money, as is its constitutional right. History shows that earlier US presidents (definitely Andrew Jackson and probably Abraham Lincoln) were killed or had attempts made upon their lives over this very issue. The international banking cartel (composed mainly of the Rothschilds, Rockefellers and other ‘elite’ bloodline families) has for a long time been the driving force behind all the world’s major events. (However, it should be noted that some disagree with Marrs’ theory, insisting that EO #11110 did not strip any power away from the Fed.)

5. Kennedy Assassination Motives: The Mafia

There is plenty of evidence of mafia involvement in the Kennedy assassination. Most theories tend to point out that the mafia – specifically mafia boss Sam Giancana – rigged the 1960 presidential election vote in Cook County on JFK’s behalf, which helped Kennedy win the election. This was in exchange was a supposed deal where Kennedy would not crack down on organized crime. However, after JFK assumed office, he did exactly the opposite, sending his brother and US Attorney General Bobby after the Mob. In 1992 the nephew of Sam Giancana published Double Cross: The Story of the Man Who Controlled America which argued that Kennedy reneged on the deal and that therefore Giancana had him killed.

6. Kennedy Assassination Motives: MJ-12 and the Extraterrestrial Issue

Finally, here is the big one: the connection between JFK and UFOs / ETs. Taking into account the research of Dr. Michael Salla, author of Kennedy’s Last Stand: Eisenhower, UFOs, MJ-12 & JFK’s Assassinationthe extraterrestrial issue may be the largest Kennedy assassination motive. After all, it is a massive and risky thing to kill a President, and there are many ways to control people without killing them, so there needed to have been an extremely compelling reason to kill JFK. According to Salla, JFK was taken under the wings of then Navy Secretary James Forrestal after WW2, and personally shown advanced technology which stemmed from extraterrestrial technological secrets Nazi Germany had acquired. Forrestal was a visionary who thought Americans had the right to know about the existence of ETs and advanced technology, but Truman disagreed, sacked him and created the framework of the US Military-Intelligence apparatus we have today. Part of this framework was an ultra secretive group known as MJ-12 (Bill Cooper talked about them in this presentation).

By the time Eisenhower left office in 1960 warning the public about the potential threat of the military-industrial complex, he knew full well how the extraterrestrial issue had gotten out of the control of the Presidency, and into the hands of ultra-secretive, black, rogue military agencies. As the story goes, JFK went about changing this, which made him an enemy of Allen Dulles, who was both head of the CIA and the secretive MJ-12 group. Dulles denied the president access to UFO information, but undaunted, Kennedy traveled to many military bases to view ET artifacts and bodies and get to the bottom of it. Salla offers a leaked MJ-12 memo (image below) known as the burned memo of 1961 which contains a cryptic directive to possibly assassinate Kennedy. When JFK was on the verge of succeeding (by forcing the CIA to share classified UFO information with other government agencies on November 12, 1963) he was killed 10 days later. The memo reads in part : “when conditions become nonconductive for growth in our environment and Washington cannot be influenced any further . . . it should be ‘wet.” (According to Salla, “wet” was Soviet code for “assassination”.)

The Occult Dimension of the Kennedy Assassination: The Murder of the Sun King

No analysis of the Kennedy assassination, however, can be complete without considering the occult dimensions of the incident, specifically the incredible numerology surrounding it. Many of you will be aware how important numerology, astrology and symbolism are to the elite, for these systems function as an arcane form of communication that bypasses the rational filter we use for decoding letters and words. Secret society initiates use these systems to privately communicate with each other (in a way that non-initiates would not easily understand or decode), as well as to create a vibrational match between their actions and other more occult forces.

In the case of the Kennedy assassination, the event is replete with masonic numerology, especially the numbers 3 and 33. One of the best researchers in this field (from whom Bill Cooper and David Icke drew) is the late James Shelby Downard. Some of his analysis can be found in his essay “KING-KILL/33° – Masonic Symbolism in the Assassination of John F. Kennedy”. Here are a short selection of the fascinating synchronicities and hidden connections which turned the Kennedy assassination from a mere killing into an open-air Freemasonic ritual of Satanic sorcery:

  • The numbers 3 and 33, highly significant, dominated the Kennedy assassination. The 33rd degree is the highest in Freemasonry and the founding lodge of the Scottish Rite in America was created in Charleston, South Carolina, exactly on the 33rd degree line. JFK was surrounded by 33° Masons who both conspired to kill him (Hoover) and/or helped to cover it up alter (Warren, Ford). JFK was killed on Nov. 22nd (11/22), and 11 + 22 = 33. Dallas was located right near the 33rd parallel. Dealey Plaza is close to the Trinity River. At 12:22 p.m. the motorcade proceeded down Main Street toward the Triple Underpass. Elm, Main and Commerce form a trident pattern in alignment with the triple underpass. Many analysts claim that there were at least 3 groups of assassins in the crossfire ambush, and it is a prime tenet of Masonry that its assassins come in threes;
  • On the corner of Elm and Houston is the “Sexton Building”, and the word “Sexton” is heavily laden with graveyard connotations; JFK was killed in Dealey Plaza, and the word can be broken down symbolically as “dea” (“goddess” in Latin) and “ley” (pertaining to law in Spanish, or the energetic grid lines of the Earth), which further reinforces that JFK was killed at the place where the “Goddess Rules”. Goddess worship (Isis, Columbia, etc.) is at the heart of many Masonic and Satanic black magic rituals;
  • The Kennedy and Oswald burials were both at “Arlington” (JFK at the National Cemetery near Washington, D.C., and Oswald at Rosehill Cemetery near Arlington, Texas), a word of significance in Masonic sorcery with a hidden meaning linked to necrolatry (death worship). Just as with the later assassination of Princess Diana, at the Kennedy gravesite there is a stone circle with a fire in the center – the eternal flame. The fire in the middle of the circle is a point in the circle: symbolic of ancient sun worship and fertility/sexual intercourse, with the point symbolizing a phallus and the circle a vagina.

There are many more connections not included here for space reasons.

Downard states that:

“Masonry does not believe in murdering a man in just any old way, and in the JFK assassination it went to incredible lengths and took great risks in order to make this heinous act of theirs correspond to the ancient fertility oblation of the Killing of the King.”

Downard further reminds us that the ultimate purpose of the Kennedy assassination:

“… was not political or economic but sorcerous: for the control of the dreaming mind and the marshalling of its forces is the omnipotent force in this entire scenario of lies, cruelty and degradation. Something died in the American people on November 22, 1963 – call it idealism, innocence or the quest for moral excellence. It is the transformation of human beings which is the authentic reason and motive for the Kennedy murder …”

Indeed – the point was to traumatize the public and transform the world in alignment with the dark vision of the conspirators. Remember that one of the Kennedy assassination masterminds was George Bush, the very man who first publicly revealed the phrase “New World Order” which has become so commonplace today.

The Grief and Anger Resulting from the Kennedy Assassination is Still Palpable Today

The Kennedy assassination may be 52 years old, but the grief and anger that many people feel from the event is still so intense, so tangible and so palpable that it may have well as been 52 seconds ago. Collectively, we still have not recovered from the psychological trauma we underwent with the murder of the “Sun King”. One of history’s most principled, courageous and beloved leaders was brutally killed in broad daylight by a band of dark criminals whose secret societies, agencies, groups, organizations and bloodlines are still running the show today. For it is, basically, the same thugs in power: from WaterGate (which involved Kennedy assassination conspirators E. Howard Hunt, Sturgis and others) to CIA Cocaine (Oliver North, Barry Seal, Bill Clinton, George Bush and the Mena Arkansas strip) to Bloodline Rule (Bush presidencies), Kennedy’s killers are indeed still on the loose and laughing arrogantly at how they seized power so effortlessly in their coup d’etat.

The question remains: will the majority of Americans and people worldwide raise their awareness of these dark events, reclaim their power and get these criminals out of power? As sad and tragic as the Kennedy assassination was, at least if we use it as a catalyst to rise up and take back our power, it will not have happened in vain.

JFK: thank you for your bravery and commitment to peace and justice. We’ll always remember it.
