The Mafia Did Not Orchestrate JFK's Assassination
• https://www.fff.org, by Jacob G. HornbergerIt is a virtual certainty that the articles appearing in the mainstream press will be reciting the official lone-nut theory of the assassination. However, it is possible that some mainstream commentators will point to the Mafia as being the orchestrator of the assassination.
But while the Mafia, which was the CIA's assassination partner against Cuban leader Fidel Castro, may have participated in the assassination through Jack Ruby's silencing of Lee Harvey Oswald, we can know with a virtual certainty that the main orchestrator of the assassination was the U.S. national-security establishment.
How can we know that? One way is through the fraudulent autopsy that was conducted on the president's body on the very evening of the assassination.
There is one undisputed fact about the autopsy: It was conducted by the U.S. military. Not the Mafia. Just the military. Therefore, given that the military conducted the autopsy, if, in fact, the autopsy was fraudulent, then that automatically leads to but one conclusion: the U.S. national-security establishment orchestrated and carried out the assassination.
There is no other reasonable conclusion that can be drawn. There is no innocent explanation for a fraudulent autopsy. No one has ever come up with one and no one ever will. A fraudulent autopsy doesn't just happen on the spur of the moment as some sort of spontaneous act. It had to be pre-planned part of the cover-up of the assassination itself, especially given that the fraudulent-autopsy scheme was actually launched at Parkland Hospital in Dallas at the moment that the president was declared dead. That was when a team of armed Secret Service agents, brandishing guns and stating that they were operating under orders, declared that under no circumstances were they going to permit the Dallas County Medical Examiner, Dr. Earl Rose, to conduct an autopsy on JFK's body, notwithstanding that Texas state law required it.
