My take on JFK Conspiracy Theories and Theorists.

[DanTex]

42. Everything you have said is true.

My experience is, the less you look at the details, the more it seems like a conspiracy. If you just look at the fact that a guy who defected to Russia and then came back, who previously was stationed at the base that launched U2 spyplanes, who went to Cuban and Soviet embassies in Mexico City just a few months before the assassination, who was a vocal Marxist and Castro supporter, and yet also befriended some anti-Castro people, and who himself was assassinated by another shady character before he can be properly questioned, then it smells like conspiracy.

The thing is, that's about the extent of the real evidence of a conspiracy. And none of that is actual evidence of evidence, it is suggestive, but not nearly conclusive. For example, there is not a single person in any other group against whom any kind of case at all can be made as to involvement in the assassination. There is no evidence that Oswald was involved with the CIA/FBI/KGB or any other such group. The extent of a plausible "conspiracy" would be that some nutjob that Oswald met at an event or party said JFK should be shot, and Oswald then decided to do it. But there is no evidence at all that Oswald got any orders or planning or logistic support from anyone.
