> A bunch of papers related to the JFK assassination that say Lee Harvey Oswald did it and acted alone. Who cares?

That's not what people are concluding in the information spaces I'm in at all. Many of the CIA documents show highly suspicious travel, activities, and statements, particularly for James Angleton, William King Harvey, and a few others who's names escape me. They lend credence to the theory that Allen Dulles possibly conspired to kill JFK, putting into action henchmen of his still at the CIA after he was fired. You should care if the unelected bureaucrats that run our global intelligence agency can act with such impunity that they can murder a sitting President and cover it up for decades.

We had a Senator say on mainstream news "the intelligence community has 6 ways to get back at you" (in reference to Trump having an antagonistic relationship with the intel community) and nobody batted an eye. Why the fuck would it ever be ok for the CIA to have ways to "get back at" the Commander-in-Chief? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6OYyXv2l4-I



Delusional people will see all information as supporting their delusion.


Who is delusional here? Dulles did explicitely support political murders. It maybe was a different time, but without other evidence what would make you suggest that this isn't in a realm of possiblities?

This was and perhaps still is the modus operandi of some public figures. To ignore it is strange at least.
