The Complexity of JFK's Assassination

The official narrative that President John F. Kennedy was killed by a lone gunman has long been called into question, leading to theories of broader conspiratorial involvement. Journalists and historians argue that evidence suggests the potential complicity of U.S. government agencies like the CIA and the Pentagon, especially given the internal investigations they conducted shortly after the assassination. For instance, seven doctors who treated Kennedy unanimously stated that the gunfire came from two different directions, directly challenging the lone gunman theory. The release of declassified documents has introduced new details, shedding light on Lee Harvey Oswald's connections to intelligence agencies, which may indicate that multiple players may have contributed to the assassination plot.
