JFK was drafting executive policies to reverse our increasing military commitment to Vietnam. JFK gave a speech effectively saying the Cold War needed to end. Basically, JFK was planning to fundamentally reform the "military-industrial complex" that Eisenhower warned Americans about, so a cabal from within the bowels of the MIC had him killed. And then they killed MLK Jr. and RFK, and probably some others like Malcolm X and Thomas Merton. But most Americans are too horrified by the thought, so they simply reject it and find some other more soothing explanation. That's usually how the big lie works. It's too awful to believe.
