Oswald in the doorway: the blog of the Oswald Innocence Campaign, by Ralph Cinque

Recently, I have been making the case why I believe Joseph P. Kennedy Jr. was assassinated in 1944. With plenty of nights to sleep on it, I am more convinced than ever that he was assassinated. Though it's based solely on circumstantial evidence, I am now 90% certain that he was assassinated. So, I shall recap the very strong case for why JPK Jr. was assassinated.

1) It was a bogus bombing target, one that had already been hit by the British with "tall bombs." It was 2 months after D-Day when the Germans were hightailing it out of France. There was no risk that they were going to be able to use that underground missile launching site again. 

2) There was no need for Joseph P. Kennedy Jr. Any pilot could have done what he did. All the pilot had to do was get the plane airborne and then the remote operators would take it over. Any pilot capable of flying the plane could have done it. Nothing compelled having Kennedy do it. 

3) They kept him on the plane longer than necessary. Once it was airborne and the remote operators had control of it, he could have bailed. But, they had him remain on the plane until it was over the water. At least, that was the plan, but it was ridiculous because there was plenty of flat, open, safe, dry English countryside for him to float down in. They needed to keep him on the plane until it reached the chosen spot to blow it up.   

4) They said he volunteered when he must have been recruited. It was a top-secret mission, so he could not have known about it unless they went to him. And he was getting ready to leave- to leave England and to leave the service- for good. He didn't go to them; they went to him, and they didn't need to. 

5) They deliberately blew up the plane in an unpopulated spot so that even though the huge explosion scattered hot debris over a 6 square mile area, no one on the ground got hurt or killed. 

6) And the worst thing of all is that they never investigated the explosion. There never was an official cause for it. All we have, to this day, are either glib explanations, such as, "they must have tripped a wire," or "there was an electrical short," or overly profuse ones, such as "the lack of insulation on the camera emitted a signal which activated the solenoid which triggered the detonation." But, without investigating it, they immediately resumed those drone missions, and there were no other explosions. But think about it: would they have risked the lives of other pilots without first determining the exact cause of the "accident" to a tee? They weren't going to investigate it because an honest investigation would have revealed the truth, that the plane was blown up deliberately. 

7) There is also the fact that JPK Sr. had been forced out and branded an anti-Semite and Nazi sympathizer, and even JPK Jr. was known to have opposed the war and spoken glowingly of Hitler and Nazi Germany (at Harvard), and he was about to enter politics. It's the same situation as JFK Jr. who was murdered when he was about to enter politics.  

With his family name, his family money, and his good looks and military heroism, he was a shoo-in, and they could not let him become President of the United States.  

So yes, I am utterly convinced that Joseph P. Kennedy Jr. was murdered.
