On November 22, 1963, an event shocked the people of the United States: President John Fitzgerald Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas. For the country it was a real shock, especially because the shooter fled never to be seen again. The official version says it was Lee Harvey Oswald, who was shot dead two days later in an act of poetic justice. But of course, since then, doubts have not ceased to sprout. What if JFK was the work of a conspiracy? Let’s investigate the truth of the matter with the craziest theories.
The Coca-Cola whistleblower
This theory is true, and Jim Moore, a well-known author, explained it in his book ‘Conspiracy of One’. The explanation for Lee Harvey Oswald being the assassin is based on the fact that he was a Dr. Pepper fan, but after the assassination he was seen drinking Coca-Cola in a library. The only realistic explanation? Well, of course: he picked the wrong soda from the machine because he was nervous, proving he was the killer and working alone. Take a leap of faith.
The CIA did it
If one day all CIA documents were declassified, it is possible (and likely) that we would find some very unexpected surprises. But it is unlikely that one would acknowledge that it was they who killed JFK. Apparently, a criminal investigator, Dave Perry, claims that the CIA paid Oswald a salary and that he was overheard plotting with the Soviets at the Russian embassy in Mexico. Does this craziness have anything to do with reality? It doesn’t look like it.
The illuminati, in the thick of it
We enter the territory of pure madness: JFK, according to this theory, delegated his presidential power to certify that the silver bullion belonged to the Treasury, and that diminished the power of the Federal Reserve, controlled by the Illuminati, who decided to kill him. In real life it was just the other way around and increased the power of the Federal Reserve, but no plan to ruin a good conspiracy theory.
Somehow, aliens
You’d think JFK was shot in his car since we all got to see the footage and even now it’s some of the most iconic footage out there, but some maintain he was killed by an alien gas pressure apparatus. The motive? After learning about Project Moon, a secret alien base on the Dark Side of our satellite, JFK was going to expose the truth of the matter. For whatever reason, it’s not a hypothesis anyone is really counting on. Stuff happens.
