More precisely, the incredible anger that the CIA, anti-Castro Cubans and mafia had towards John Kennedy for 1) the Bay of Pigs fiasco which they blamed on him 2) not invading or bombing (wisely) Cuba during Cuban Missile Crisis 3) and fear that Kennedy was on track to normalize relations with Cuba leaving Castro intact.
So sure, foreign policy had a big role in the JFK assassination.
But the key point of my post is the Lyndon Johnson/Nelson Rockefeller connection - I think they were BOTH engaged in the planning and COVER UP of the JFK assassination.
Many can kill a president, but FEW can control the machinery of government to guarantee a successful cover up, and that is what happened in this case.
