It was the 50th anniversary of the assassination of John Fitzgerald Kennedy the 35th President of the US yesterday. I read that a ceremony was held for the first time in Dallas, TX this year. I watched a kind of movie/documentary in yesterday afternoon called The Kennedys, partially. I had known a bit about him and what happened in the years before his assassination but I didn't know he had an issue and she left him. That was very disturbing to see someone who is under so much pressure, instead of getting support from his family, has to assign part of his brain to the new issue. He was with his aids discussing the Cuban Missile Crisis and in between talking to this and that he had to ask the operator to try his wife's in Virginia, I guess and there was no answer.
Oliver Stone described what really happened in 1963 and who really was behind the assassination but there are still assholes who want to fool themselves and others by saying Oswald did it by himself! Lots of books have been published and many articles are available on the web. I have not had time and motivation to read majority of them but believe in Stone has said in JFK.
This story is a bit similar to the killings of authors and opposition leaders in the old country almost 15 years ago. No one has been ever charged officially but a wise person knows that all of them has been killed by the direct order of the dictator and his aids.
