Who Killed President John. F. Kennedy?
Veronica Kerrodar
There are many unsolved mysteries in the world. One such mystery is that of who killed President John F. Kennedy and what were their motives? Many people were involved in the death of President Kennedy. The Mafia worked in collaboration with the CIA to kill the president.
The Mafia had many reasons to kill the President of the United States. The connections between the Kennedys and The Mob were as follows: John F. Kennedy’s father had friends that were a part of the Mafia; Robert Kennedy was appointed Attorney General when President Kennedy took office, and his first priority was gang busting. However, it was the Mafia that Kennedy senior went to get votes for his son in order for him to become president. He did not let his sons in on this information, so when Robert began his gang busting operations, the mobsters became very angry. Santo Traficanti was the Mob Prince. Jimmy Hoffa was the head of the American International Brotherhood of Teamsters Union. To the working class people, he was a hero. However, he was still a part of the mob and he cheated truck drivers out of $1.4 billion from their pension. Carlos Marcello was a partner with Traficanti and he was sent back to Guatemala because he was an illegal immigrant in the United States. Frank Lugano was the defense attorney for the mobsters; he was very good friends with Traficanti and served as an intermediary between Traficanti and Hoffa. The mobsters were cheating honest, hard working, American people to get money to send to Fidel Castro. They wanted to keep their casinos open so that they could continue to make their millions. Castro took their money, however he still closed the casinos down. Around this time, the CIA forced the president to agree to the Bay of Pigs. After its failure, President Kennedy became very upset and fired Allan Dulles, the head of the CIA. The president had not wanted to get involved in Cuba, and he wanted to start bringing troops out of South Vietnam. However, the CIA kept contradicting his ideas. President Kennedy had planned that by the end of 1963 about 1,000 troops should have been removed from South Vietnam. (http://www.john-f-kennedy.net/nsam263.htm) The CIA refused to listen to President Kennedy’s orders, and the president said that he would shut down the CIA. Since the CIA worked closely with the president, they were the only group powerful enough to plan and execute an overthrow of the president. There were many other groups with the ability to plan the president’s assassination, but they would not have been able to get close enough to actually kill him. However, the members of the CIA were always with the president, therefore they also had the means to execute the plan that they had come up with.
The link between the Mafia and the CIA was Santo Traficanti. The CIA, learning of the hatred the Mafia had for Castro, asked Traficanti to join them and help them get rid of Castro. Traficanti agreed, although he had no intention to. It was from here that the CIA began to work closely with the Mob Prince. The CIA wanted to set up Lee Harvey Oswald as the lone assassin of President Kennedy. The press received background information faster than possibly without prior knowledge of the assassination, and the police had his description without anyone seeing him. There was also a mysterious tape of Oswald’s voice that was used to link him to the death of the president. “[David Atlee] Philips was saying that an individual went to Mexico City on or about October 1st and the CIA was claiming this was Lee Harvey Oswald, just as the Warren Commission had claimed. However, the following occurred: “Oswald” goes to the Russian embassy and identifies himself and Lee Henry Oswald. He wanted to fake everybody out by changing his middle name. There were tapes of what he said because the CIA was bugging the Embassy the same as they were doing to the U.S. Embassy, according to Philips. The CIA was also photographing people going in and out of the Embassy, same as they were doing to the U.S. (We found out, from our own sources that the CIA had a contract employee named Lee Henry Oswald, in their files.) Philips’ testimony was that there was no photograph of “Oswald” because the camera equipment had broken down that day and there was no audiotape of “Oswald’s” voice because they recycled the tapes every six or seven days. The problem with his story was, we had obtained a document from the desk of J. Edgar Hoover dated November 23, 1963, the very next day after the assassination. This document was a memo to all FBI supervisorial staff stating, in substance, that FBI agents who have questioned Oswald for the past 17 hours have listed to the tape made on October 1 by an individual identifying himself as Lee Henry Oswald inside the Russian Embassy calling on the phone to someone inside the Cuban Embassy and the agents can state unequivocally that the voice on the tape is not the voice of Lee Harvey Oswald, who is in custody” (http://www.jfk-info.com/pr796.htm). The CIA wanted the people to believe that Oswald had went to Mexico City to meet with others to plan the assassination of the president. However, it was not Oswald because the voices of Oswald and the person on the tape do not match.
Clay Shaw, who was a member of the CIA, worked with Lee Harvey Oswald, who had made ties with the Mafia when he lived in New Orleans, to plan the death of President John F. Kennedy. However, both the CIA and the Mafia had planned to let Oswald take all the blame. President Lyndon Johnson put Allan Dulles, who was fired as the head of the CIA by President Kennedy, in charge of the Warren Commission. The Warren Commission concluded that Oswald acted alone, and ignored all the eyewitnesses who said that they saw a grassy knoll shooter. However, there were two shooters because even though Oswald was an expert marksman, no chances could be taken. The plan was to kill the president, not injure him. When Oswald was arrested for the murder, the CIA and the Mafia began to worry that he might talk and ruin everything for them. Jack Ruby was hired to kill Oswald. As a child, Ruby used to “run errands for Al Capone, then went on to work for Paul Dorfman during the late 1930’s. Ruby then moved to Dallas in the 1940’s to open a Nightclub. At the same time the Chicago mafia decided to expand to Dallas. It was later discovered that they planned on using his nightclub as a base for running some of their operations” (http://www.flash.net /~manniac/jfk2.htm). The Mafia used him to kill Oswald and to prevent themselves from being tied to the death of the President.
In conclusion, The CIA and the Mafia worked together to kill President Kennedy. Both had the motives for wanting the president dead, however, only the CIA was close enough to the president to ensure that the plan was executed properly. The Mafia supplied the assassins and the CIA devised the plan the Killed President John F. Kennedy.
