70. All of the above is largely accurate, except about why Kennedy was

killed.

If you want to understand Jack Kennedy's life and death, you have to look at who his father was. Joe Kennedy, Sr. was a leader of the appeasement Right-wing of the Democratic Party. He was considered so dangerous a Nazi sympathizer by FDR that a way had to be found to get him the hell of Dodge. He was send to London in the late 1930s as Ambassador. This placed him in a position where he could be effectively watched, as the US President then did not then have the mechanism to carry out political surveillance. Churchill did the same thing with Viscount Halifax, British Ambassador to Washington (1940-46), who before his departure was the leader of the UK Fifth Column.

Joe, Sr. was essentially fired in December 1941 after one of his aides was caught by British intelligence passing copies of classified cables to the Germans.

Jack Kennedy did not run as a liberal. He was to the right of Adlai Stevenson, and during the 1960 campaign taunted Richard Nixon, the Republican candidate, for not being aggressive enough with the Russians and Cubans. After he was elected, he had a last-minute change of mind about invading Cuba. It was revealed during the Clinton Administration that a Russian combat brigade in Cuba had tactical nukes, and was authorized to use them in the event the Americans invaded in force. JFK may have received that message through a back-channel to Krushchev, and by sacrificing those on the beaches, avoided nuclear war. For this, Kennedy was never forgiven by the participants in the inadequate, doomed CIA invasion group. Apparently, G.W.H. Bush was involved with the operation, his oil company supplied the "Barbara", the "Zapata" and the "Houston", three cargo ships used in the amphibious operation at the Bay of Pigs.

The JFK assassination involved at least three cover stories. The one given to the Warren Commission members was that Oswald was an agent of Castro and the Soviets, and that their role in the plot had to be kept secret to prevent WW3. The inner cover story, the one handed to the operational group that carried out the assassination and key government insiders, was that JFK was sharing secrets with a female Romanian intelligence agent he was sleeping with, and that killing Kennedy would spare the country the agony of having to impeach the President on treason charges. The public was given the lone gunman story, embellished with the single-bullet theory nonsense cooked up by Arlen Specter.

My belief is that the Kennedy assassinations were a vendetta against Joe, Sr. who was assigned a role rather similar to that of Prescott Bush to create a political dynasty that would effectively control post-War American politics on behalf of the handful of super-wealthy families that founded and then still controlled the biggest corporations -- the Morgans, DuPonts, Rockefellers, Mellons, McCormicks, Singers -- basically the same group who in 1934 had failed in their half-brained coup attempt against FDR. The principal mentor for both the Kennedy and Bush boys were the same: the Harrimans. Av Harriman was the primary American money man behind Union Trust Bank of New York, the international bank founded and controlled by Fritz Theyssen, who was Hitler's Banker and earliest big financial supporter of the Nazi Party. Prescott Bush and Herbert Walker were top managers of this and several other German commercial interests siezed as enemy property after World War Two broke out. Av Harriman was US Ambassador to Moscow and later to Saigon. Late in his life, he married the former Pamela Digby, who had divorced Winston Churchill's alcoholic son. Pam Harriman went on to be the Grand Dame of the Democratic Party during the 1980s, turning the party to the right away from the New Deal faction, and promoting the careers of a pair of attractive centrists from Arkansas.

The Rockefeller-controlled Republic and Chase banks were also primary American money centers for Germany under the Nazis. The Wall Street law firm that represented Germany, along with the Du Ponts, the Rockefellers, and Morgan was Sullivan & Cromwell, headed by the Dulles Brothers, who ran the other faction of American politics, the Republican Party. John Foster was the head of the Republican National Committee during the 1930s and 1940s, before he was appointed Secretary of State by Eisenhower. His younger brother, Allen, spent World War Two as OSS Chief of Station in Bern, Switzerland, where he intermediated the flow of money and information between the US and Axis countries. The Dulles Bros. were the chief operating officers of America during the 1950s, and the Kennedys had been assigned the reserve role as their successors in the event the Democrats regained the Presidency, which they did in 1960. Something went terribly wrong with Joe Kennedy boys, who proved far too independent for the tastes of those who had nurtured them. So, each was neutralized, along with the grand kids.

Richard Nixon, who had been mentored by the Dulles, took over in 1968. He also proved problematic. After an interregnum, The Bush family ran things again from 1980-1992, when Pam Harriman's protege came in, only to be replaced in 2000 by the oldest third generation of Bushes.

All this points to the dynastic nature of American presidents, and that both parties have ended up being led by the hand-picked agents of the country's most wealthy ruling families. In the 21st Century, the powers that be are more multinational, and those picked by them are considerably less interested in promoting national interests than their 20th Century predecessors. The strategy today appears to be to divest from U.S. holdings, off-shoring capital to higher return markets in Asia. So, we can expect to see the cabal's policies to continue to have the effect of disinvestment, a build-up of debt, and a weakening of the ability of the U.S. to control the world's politics and economy, and even its own affairs.
