JFK - Committed Suicide I Reckon

[Deano!]

My theory on the JFK assassination is that he actually pulled out a gun and shot himself just to get attention. It worked too!

If he'd seen that dick Andrew Marr talking shit about the 1960 election he'd probably have killed him first.

According to Marr JFK was a nymphomaniac.

I have always held the view that Sam Giancana, the head of the mafia in Chicago, had him killed. JFK's gangster father Joe wangled all kind of deals with Giancana, with Frank Sinatra as the go-between, and Giancana delivered huge amounts of votes for Kennedy. Boxes that were marked 'Nixon' were counted as 'Kennedy' as Giancana had so many people in Chicago and Illinois in his pocket that he could make things happen. Kennedy then won with the narrowest margin ever.

I've read several books that detail all this. Kennedy then broke his part of the deal. He promised he would not go as hard after these mobsters as some previous President's had. Instead JFK appointed his brother Bobby as Attorney General and they went very hard after organised crime. Sinatra and Giancana fell out with Kennedy's big time. Giancana howled with rage: "I put that bastard Kennedy in the White House, if it wasn't for me he wouldn't be there and this is what he does to me!". I've always held the view that Giancana had both brothers killed.

Dont let Oliver Stone see this Max. I can see a sequel in the pipeline already involving this site being involved with conspiracy theories and tying it in with flash backs to the 60's Zapruder Super8mm and the mob already.

Would make for great straight to dvd bargain bin at Blockbuster for sure.

JFK only got in with Mafia help then gave his brother a postion to destroy his helpers e.g. the Mafia...you live by the sword & die by the sword.

oej,

Very good. Mock all you like. There are many books written that claim all of what I've outlined. Unless you claim that no one killed him. I think we can assume that some person or people had him killed and once we've established that I think it is reasonable for people to have theories as to who it may have been and why it was done.

Many claim that Frank Sinatra knew exactly what happened to Kennedy, and took it with him to the grave. I'm not claiming that Sinatra helped arrange it, but it is said by some that he knew all about it.

Sinatra and Giancana, or big Sam, as Sinatra and his butler George Jacobs called him, were great friends. I have a very interesting book that George Jacobs wrote called "Mr S" - which is what Jacobs called Sinatra. It is a fascinating book. The Kennedys, the Mafia, Marilyn, Hollywood, it's all in there. One of the most interesting books I've ever read:
