From everything I have read and studied over more than three decades, my best guess is that it was LBJ in cahoots with the CIA and Secret Service. I offer the following facts for consideration:
1. The original motorcade route, as posted in the Dallas newspapers on November 21, 1963, took the cars straight down Main Street: it did NOT include the turn onto Houston and then onto Elm. This means the route was changed at the last moment. The Secret Service determines all motorcade routes, so only they could have made the change.
2. Secret Service SOP is that presidential motorcades never travel below 15mph. Yet having to make the sharp turn onto Elm caused the motorcade to travel at about 10mph. As well, SOP is that if the drivers hear ANY sound or see any visual cue that is even mildly suspicious, they are to speed up and get the president away. Yet after the first gunshot, the driver not only did NOT speed up, but he brought the car to a near-complete stop before finally speeding up.
3. One of the newest videos available shows the presidential limo as it is leaving the airport. It shows the Secret Service agent in charge waving away the two Secret Service agents who would have been standing on the “running boards” on the back of the car. Had they been in place, THEY would have been shot, not JFK.
4. SOP for presidential motorcades also calls for a military presence along the motorcade route (sometimes a combination of actual U.S. Army and National Guard). Yet such military presence was asked to “stand down” for this motorcade. Again, only the Secret Service and U.S. Military can do this.
5. As has been widely noted, JFK had signed an executive order to begin bringing back the “advisors” from Vietnam, and almost certainly had no intention of engaging in full-out war. LBJ openly and publicly disagreed, calling for U.S. engagement in Vietnam. JFK’s position adversely effected both the U.S. Military (which was itching to get into the fray) and the defense contractors (which stood to lose hundreds of millions of dollars in defense contracts). In this regard, it seems no coincidence that one of the first orders signed by LBJ after JFK’s death rescinded JFK’s executive order, and called for the deployment of U.S. troops to Vietnam – as well as his famous comment to the Joint Chiefs, “Gentlemen: you have your war.”
None of the above could have been pulled off by the Mafia, Cubans, etc. Only the Secret Service and U.S. Military could effect the decisions that led to the altered motorcade route (and resultant slowing down of the vehicles), the calling off of the protective Secret Service detail on the presidential limousine, and the “stand down” order of the military presence along the motorcade route.
Thus, while elements of the Mafia, Cubans, etc. may have been involved at the “lowest levels,” it seems pretty clear that JFK’s assassination was carried out by LBJ, along with the CIA, Military and Secret Service.
