I've been thinking of starting a thread on this to give my thoughts - thankfully one already exists!
Here goes:
JFK was killed by the CIA working directly with the Mossad (including through Jewish mobsters connected to Meyer Lansky, who was a major zionist in addition to being a wildly successful career criminal with interests in Cuba), in a successful internal coup which had several goals:
1. Remove the U.S. official (but not-really-enforced) arms embargo on "Israel."
2. Stop the repeated efforts of the executive branch (under both Kennedy and his successor Eisenhower) to get the American Zionist Committee for Public Affairs (the predecessor to AIPAC) to register as a foreign agent under FARA.
3. End U.S. demands (by Kennedy, in 1963, shortly before he was assassinated) for "Israel's" nuclear weapons stockpile (partly stolen from the U.S.) at Dimona to be inspected by the IAEA. This demand from JFK greatly angered the "Israelis" and led to "Israeli" PM David Ben-Gurion's resignation under pressure from Kennedy to allow inspections.
4. Retaliate against Kennedy for (rightly) getting pissed off at the CIA for its disastrous Bay of Pigs operation, curb what the CIA saw (rightly or wrongly) as Kennedy's increased hostility towards U.S. imperialism, and ensure that the U.S. continued its deranged (and failed) mafioso crusade against Cuba for decades to come.
5. Derail what was seen by the CIA & Mossad as excessive friendliness towards the USSR.
6. Prevent any potential reverse (real or imagined) on U.S. imperial war in Vietnam.
James Jesus Angleton, head of the CIA at the time of the assassination (when the CIA was not forbidden from
openly doing ops in the continental U.S.), had established the "Israel" desk at the CIA, and was responsible for greatly increasing U.S. espionage ties with the Mossad. He had major ties to "Israel," which hated Kennedy, and also he hated Kennedy himself due to Kennedy's criticism of the CIA. He had been surveilling Lee Harvey Oswald since 1959 (unless I'm misremembering and it was 1958), keeping close tabs on him for at
least four years right up to Kennedy's killing. On the morning of the day of the killing, future CIA director (and future president) George H. W. Bush had been in Dallas, Texas - though he would always claim, when asked in future interviews, not to have remembered where he was on that day.
Lee Harvey Oswald's statement, before he was killed, was that he was a patsy. Jack Ruby, the man who killed Lee Harvey Oswald (whose police protection was less than stellar), was a local Jewish mobster in Texas with connections to the zionist mobster Meyer Lansky, who, in turn, had connections to the CIA/Mob's operations in Cuba pre-revolution.
When the House Select Committee on Assassinations was investigating the killing of Kennedy, James Angleton committed perjury, and lied to omit information about his operations surveilling Lee Harvey Oswald. James Angleton resigned in disgrace in the United States in the early 1970s, but, notably, was honored in "Israel." There's a modest plaque devoted to CIA director James Angleton in Jerusalem, reading
"In memory of a dear friend, James (Jim) Angleton, 1917-1987," which was put there by members of the Mossad and Shin Bet, "Israel's" foreign and domestic espionage services.
Kennedy's successor, Texas's Lyndon Baines Johnson, was, at that time, the most zionist president the U.S. had ever had. The embargo on arming "Israel" was removed, no U.S. president ever acknowledged the existence of "Israel's" nuclear arsenal again, and any attempt to register the main "Israeli" operatives in the U.S. under FARA was abandoned. In addition, "Israel's" 1967 deliberate attack on the U.S. ship the USS Liberty, which killed 34 U.S. sailors, was covered up by the U.S. government and met with zero retaliation - instead, the soldiers aboard the attacked vessel were threatened and told to shut up for decades. The U.S. involvement in the Vietnam war went full speed ahead, U.S. intelligence continued to terrorize American citizens opposed to war and imperialism, and the U.S., to this day, has not abandoned its CIA/gangster project to recolonize Cuba. After decades of economic, espionage, propaganda, and proxy war, the USSR fell, leading to a massive "shock treatment" implosion in the 1990s, and the destruction of Yugoslavia as well; and yet, today, the U.S. still has extremely cold diplomatic relations with Russia anyway, because there is no remaining shred U.S. foreign policy not fully determined by CIA global gangsterism.
As for George H. W. Bush, his son would also go on to be U.S. President. Under George W. Bush, 9/11 occurred (like with Oswald, the CIA had been watching the alleged perpetrators for years prior to the attack, and may also have facilitated their travel into the U.S.), and the U.S. used the opportunity to attack Saddam Hussein, a former U.S. puppet dictator who had become an enemy of "Israel" and an obstacle to its expansion. This plan had been outlined in the
Project For a New American Century, several of whose members staffed Bush's White House. Bush also used the opportunity to create the PATRIOT ACT, which enabled largescale federal warrantless surveillance and abduction powers, to champion torture at international U.S. "black sites," to censor opposition to the agenda, and to establish the DHS/ICE, completely redundant agencies which have proven to be instruments of repression. The U.S. government planned to destroy Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Libya, Iran, Somalia, and Sudan within five years, all of which had governments the neocons hated because they were anti-zionist. George H. W. Bush's father was Nazi collaborator Prescott Bush, who was involved in the infamous 1934 "Business Plot," a plan to stage a coup in the United States and install a Fascist dictatorship. If you go back far enough, one of Bush's ancestral cousins was an early zionist also named George Bush (
