But now, the whole framework surrounding JFK's murder, including the so-called “magic bullet” theory, is falling apart. This explanation has been pushed on us for six decades, mainly by the CIA.
Even staunch defenders, like the mainstream media, have to acknowledge that it's no longer credible, especially in light of recent revelations from JFK’s Secret Service agent, Paul Landis.
The narrative is changing, and it's becoming increasingly difficult for the establishment to conceal these developments.
From the Independent UK:
Paul Landis, 88, who had been assigned to protect first lady Jackie Kennedy, challenged the Warren Commission’s findings that a “magic bullet” had struck and exited the president before hitting then-Texas governor John Connally Jr.
Mr Landis told the New York Times he recalled hearing several shots ring out in Dealy Plaza as he walked just behind the president’s limousine, and saw the president slump forward after being struck in the head.
He told the Times he was so close that he had to duck down to avoid being covered in the president’s brain tissue.
Mr Landis said that in the chaotic moments after the assassination, he picked up a near-pristine bullet from the back seat of the limo, just behind where Kennedy had been sitting.
According to the retired agent, he took the bullet to the hospital where Kennedy would be declared dead and placed it on the president’s stretcher so that it could be examined.
The bullet was long believed to have been found on Connally’s stretcher. Investigators claimed it passed through Kennedy’s throat, and then somehow hit the former governor’s right shoulder before causing wounds to his back, chest, wrist and thigh.
It became known as the “single bullet” or “magic bullet” theory, and was relied on by the Warren Commission as evidence that Lee Harvey Oswald had carried out the assassination alone.
Mr Landis told the Times he believes the bullet may have fallen from the president’s stretcher onto Connally’s when they were side-by-side in the hospital.
“There was nobody there to secure the scene, and that was a big, big bother to me,” Mr Landis told the Times. “All the agents that were there were focused on the president.”
As folks reach the later stages of life, it's quite common for them to feel the urge to clarify things, especially when it involves a significant historical event like this one.
Mr. Landis appears to be genuinely trying to share the real story of what transpired on that momentous day. It doesn't seem driven by a thirst for attention or money; it feels like an authentic attempt to reveal the actual facts.
