Why did Lee Harvey Oswald (LHO) allegedly shoot President John F. Kennedy (JFK) when he actually liked him?
If we go to George de Mohrenschildt’s testimony, we will see this exchange before the WC.
Mr. JENNER. Was there any occasion when it came to your attention that there was any alarm on Marina's part with respect to Lee possibly inflicting some harm on Vice President Nixon, or former Vice President Nixon?
Mr. De MOHRENSCHILDT. No.
Mr. JENNER. That doesn't ring a bell at all?
Mr. De MOHRENSCHILDT. It doesn't ring a bell at all. But what I wanted to underline, that was always amazing to me, that as far as I am concerned, he was an admirer of President Kennedy.
So why does and “admirer” of JFK allegedly kill him? The WC never answered this question for us.
Marina Oswald would say this about his thoughts on JFK.
Mr. RANKIN. Did he ever say anything about President Kennedy?
Mrs. OSWALD. No. At least---I was always interested in President Kennedy and had asked him many times to translate articles in a newspaper or magazine for me, and he always had something good to say… At least in Lee's behavior---from Lee's behavior I cannot conclude that he was against the President, and therefore the thing is incomprehensible to me.
Mr. RANKIN. Had your husband at any time that you can recall said anything against President Kennedy?
Mrs. OSWALD. I don't remember any ever having said that. I don't know. He never told me that.
Mr. RANKIN. Did he ever say anything good about President Kennedy?
Mrs. OSWALD. Usually he would translate magazine articles. They were generally good. And he did not say that this contradicted his opinion.
Mr. RANKIN. Why did you not believe this? [That LHO allegedly shot JFK.]
Mrs. OSWALD. Because I had never heard anything bad about Kennedy from Lee. And he never had anything against him.
Mr. RANKIN. So apparently he didn't indicate any approval or disapproval as far as he was concerned, of President Kennedy?
Mrs. OSWALD. Yes, that is correct. The President is the President. In my opinion, he never wanted to overthrow him. At least he never showed me that. He never indicated that he didn't want that President.
Marina says over and over LHO had good thoughts about JFK, so again, why would he allegedly want him dead when she said he never “wanted to overthrow him?”
Ruth Paine would be asked about this as well and this is what she said before the WC.
Representative BOGGS - Did he ever discuss President Kennedy with you?
Mrs. PAINE - He never mentioned Kennedy at all.
Again, we see NO bad comments about JFK from LHO. Next, we will look at what Michael Paine said before the WC regarding this issue.
Mr. DULLES - Did he ever mention the President in this or any other conversations?
Mr. PAINE - He mentioned the President only once that I can remember specifically; at the ACLU meeting I think.
Mr. DULLES - At the which?
Mr. PAINE - At the ACLU meeting I took him to. He had mentioned, he thought President Kennedy was doing quite a good job in civil rights, which was high praise coming from Lee.
Mr. LIEBELER - Did he ever indicate to you any specific hostility toward President Kennedy?
Mr. PAINE - I think at this ACLU meeting he mentioned this specifically that he thought Kennedy had done a good job in civil rights. That was it--generally my impression was that he liked--he didn't like anybody, but he disliked Kennedy least as you might go right from Kennedy.
Mr. LIEBELER - To the best of your recollection, was that the only time he mentioned President Kennedy specifically?
Mr. PAINE - Yes.
He too never heard LHO make a bad comment about JFK. In fact, he thought JFK was doing a good job in civil rights. This would make LHO a target as many in Texas were NOT for civil rights. Finally, let’s look at what LHO’s brother said about this issue.
Mr. DULLES. This question of mine covers the whole period of your relationship with your brother.
Do you recall during that entire period, up to November 22, that your brother made any comments with regard to President Kennedy of a derogatory nature or character or of any other character? Did he ever discuss the President with you during the whole period? Of course, he was only President for the last 3 years.
Mr. OSWALD. No, sir; I do not recall at any time that he ever mentioned President Kennedy's name or referred to him in any way, either pro or con.
Mr. DULLES. Do you recall at any time that Lee Harvey Oswald expressed antipathy to government in general, people in authority, leaders?
Mr. OSWALD. No, sir; I do not recall.
It is clear that either LHO was an Oscar-caliber actor who could hide his true feelings, or he did NOT have any ill-feelings towards JFK. Since the WC never answered this for us, I will pose the question to the WC defenders—why would LHO shoot a man he seemed to admire?
