I've long suspected it was just a crime of opportunity. IMO Oswald was an attention seeker (like TFG) who had apparently succumbed to Soviet propaganda and likely hated JFK for his anti-communism and Bay of Pigs. He found out that the JFK parade was going to pass directly under the place where he worked and he couldn't pass up such a golden opportunity.
The book Operation Dragon: Inside the Kremlin's Secret War on America published in 2021 by ex-CIA chief R. James Woolsey claims that Oswald was personally instructed by Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev to assassinate President Kennedy. I don't know how credible it is. Woolsey was a member of PNAC so maybe has an agenda or something. |
