The weakness of the Di conspiracy is that there is no really good reason that anyone would want her dead ... JFK, on the other hand: lots of folks wanted him iced. And as for Oswald being a good shot? I'm a decent shot with a rifle, but the gun he was supposed to have used I've fired one of those Italian pieces of junk, and it was in good condition when my buddy bought it: never fired and only dropped once Hitting the side of a barn from 10 feet away is a good shot with one of those things. But I still think that what happened to JFK is probably something a lot simpler than the conspiracies dreamed up in the media and in Hollywood.

But there you go. Because you couldn't hit anything, this means nobody, including Oswald, could hit anything? It was a very easy shot that has been replicated many times. JFK was moving away at 180 degrees, and Oswald popped off three shots without trouble. I think it was a BBC production, too, that analyzed everything. The single bullet theory has been proved much to the dismay of the conspiracy theorists, and of course, there are those who want to keep conspiracy alive because it is in their economic interests to do so. I believe there was a two house special on the Discovery Channel. Due to multiple camera and sound recordings, a three dimensional model was constructed, and the conclusion was that the shots could not have come from anywhere else but the Texas Book Depository where Oswald was. And he carried in a long package wrapped in brown paper earlier that morning and said they were curtain rods? Buddy, a close friend of mine in Nigeria who was a major bank manager wants to get 10 million dollars out of the country, and he's willing to split it with you. I can't do it for tax reasons, but you..............

Sorry hon, this is a tad too contrived for me ... you have muslim councillors, muslim MPs, muslim peers etc, and your biggest ally has a black President with an even blacker First Lady whom Her Majesty seems to like just fine. I just don't buy it. Now, if the future King were to have a half brother who wore a flat cap, clogs, carried a whippet and talked like Cashy ... that would be worthy of an assasination.

I should think so too Eric carrying a whippet, it should be flaming running carrying it must be a flogging offence

Eric, I agree it's hardly a snipers rifle but several marksmen duplicated Oswald's results( speed,range, accuracy score) using that same rifle and Oswald had qualified as a sharpshooter and marksman not that long before.
Accepting that he did it he must have felt he could do it using that rifle(perhaps he wasn't too worried whether he killed or not, as long as he made his point). And it worked better than he expected.
The test results on the rifle, carried out by a variety of independent shooters, are facts, unlikely but still facts.
Maybe he was just lucky and Kennedy was unlucky.

Have you seen the shots he made through a telescopic lens? They weren't even lucky shots.
