General Discussion
In reply to the discussion: Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy believed President Kennedy was killed by a conspiracy. [View all]nyquil_man
(1,443 posts)I would hesitate to call it a theory as very little of it can be verified.
"If Brading had connections to Marcello..." Speculation.
"Trafficante, Jr. allegedly ran mafia operations in Cuba and Florida." Emphasis on allegedly. Speculation.
"If CIA anti-Castro (mafia hired) operatives were involved in the assassination..." Speculation again.
Jack Ruby's "participation" with Brading is speculation. The notion that he silenced Oswald because Oswald claimed (once) to have been a patsy is also speculation.
H. L. Hunt wanted to kill Kennedy in order to restore capitalism to Cuba? Also speculation. Didn't really work either, did it?
You are willing to throw out all sorts of evidence in order to take the heat off of Oswald. That's fine. Throw it out. But you then have to fill in, with evidence, the gaps you've created.
I still think it's a nice story, though. I like the part where your expert Mafia-hired sniper is drawing attention to himself and getting arrested before he even leaves the building. It's a nice comic touch.
