As I write this, the 50th anniversary of what is widely regarded as one of the most terrible events in United States history—the killing of President John F. Kennedy on November 22, 1963—is rapidly approaching. The reasons why Lee Harvey Oswald committed this tragic murder have been the subject of a great deal of research and writing. Since the Warren Commission originally reached the conclusion that Oswald operated alone, a great number of writers and investigators have sought, without success, to connect him to a Soviet plan, the CIA, the mafia, and other such organizations. In point of fact, the final word must go to the author of the most recent book on the topic, which is titled “the interloper:lee harvey oswald inside the soviet union.” In this book, the journalist peter savodnik says the following: “There is a strong and widespread yearning to retell the story of John F. Kennedy’s life and death as a grand myth. It does not provide any sense of closure that he was taken down by a redneck who had difficulties bonding to his mother.” Therefore, I am going to detail a ‘life cycles’ forensic analysis of Lee Harvey Oswald, which will be a first of its kind anywhere in the world: a lone psychopath of the species. He sought to make a name for himself by speaking out against capitalism. He was a staunch supporter of marxism in all its forms. He had gone over to the Russian side, but then he came back. He was emotionally unfeeling and had no true sense of good and evil in the world. It was impossible to get him to stop lying. In every aspect of his life, he had been unsuccessful. When he was in the marines, he had a good deal of success as a marksman. His family had a troubled past, and he himself had a turbulent past filled with violent conflicts and outbursts. Recently, he had attempted to kill a retired general who was a strong anti-communist, but he had been unsuccessful. In a nutshell, this was a poisonous concoction, but it did not necessarily indicate that he would end up killing the president. I will be able to provide a glimpse at all of Oswald’s “significant years” (i.e. the ages of 7,12,19, and 24; for an explanation of why I consider these relatively few years to be significant, see my earlier articles). This is made possible by the extensive records that have been kept of Oswald’s brief life. It is based on a symbolic cycle that lasts for 12 years, with the first year being known as the “year of revolution” (according to the date 12/24), and the seventh year after that being known as the “year of broken paths” (corresponding to the date 7/19). Therefore, let’s start with the time when he was just seven years old (oct.18th, 1946 to oct.18th, 1947). His mother had just recently been married to edwin ekdahl, an electrical engineer who was a few years older than her. Edwin ekdahl loved him like he was one of his own kids and was like a second father to him. Lee was overjoyed when they eventually got back together after being apart for a while, but unfortunately, their happiness was short-lived. “every other day” they argued, and “he would leave and come back” each time. In the late summer of 1947, his mother Marguerite had a hunch that her son Ekdahl was cheating on her. She instructed the lads to break into the house of his girlfriend in order to find him there. A divorce was finalized not long after that. Oswald was forced to live in an unstable environment and watched as the safety of his family was abruptly snatched away. He eventually came to the conclusion that his mother was the one who was to blame. Let’s fast forward to when he was 12 years old (oct.1951 to oct.1952). There is one well-documented event that took place in August of 1952. (close to the exact time of year of the age 7 incident). During this time, Oswald and his mother traveled to their half-brother John Pik and his mother’s apartment in New York City to be with them for a short period of time. After Oswald grew agitated over Mrs. Pik’s usage of the television, he pulled out a pocket knife and threatened her. During the dispute, he was also violent against his mother. It was ordered that Oswald and his mother leave immediately or they would be expelled. It is a sign of the problematic mother-son connection, as well as the possibility for him to act out his hostility. Now we get to the single most formative year of Oswald’s life: the “year of broken paths” that he experienced when he was 19 years old (oct.1958 to oct.1959). Oswald had been a member of the marines since 1956 and had been court-martialed twice for fighting and for using a handgun without authorization. He was now a private after being demoted. He had been unsuccessful in his attempts to make a career in the military. After spending some time in Japan, he traveled back to the United States in December of 1958. Shortly after his return, he made the decision to emigrate to the Soviet Union. Because of his strong support for the Soviet Union, people began to call him “Oswaldskovich.” One of his coats included his name inscribed in Russian script on the sleeve. He made comments in Russian, called the other people in the barracks “comrade,” and played Russian music at such a volume that it was audible outside of the barracks. This is a typical example of how the ‘year of broken paths’ might play out, changing you in little ways over the course of the year until you emerge from it a totally different person. Did the Marines really desire this particular individual? I got the impression that it is a question that ought to have been raised. The height of the cold war is what we’re talking about here. In any case, he did not maintain a diary during this particular period, which means that we will never be privy to his most private ideas. However, we are aware that he did start off with a variety of different falsehoods, all of which, much like the rest of his life, were mainly unsuccessful due to the fact that his actions were so transparent. In March of 1959, he deceived the admissions staff at the Albert Schweitzer College in Switzerland in order to enroll there as a philosophy student. He said that he had been interested in psychology for a very long time and that he had participated in a “student body campaign” to fight against juvenile delinquency while he was in school. In June, he was given approval. What exactly took place in August? Why do I bother to learn this? because it coincides perfectly with happenings throughout his “important years” of age 7 and age 12 respectively. So, what did the records have to say about it? They tell me that on August 17th, he lied to the marines again by claiming that his mother, who had just reached 52, need assistance. This deception was told to the military. He asked for what’s called a “dependency release.” Therefore, his mother appears once again, and this time it is to provide as a plausible alibi. On August 28th, the dependency discharge board gave their blessing for him to be released, as if his actions up to this point wasn’t enough of a justification. In September, he submitted his passport application while lying about his intended course of study. Just before he turned 20, he was making preparations to go to Russia. It goes without saying that this endeavor was equally unsuccessful. He bemoaned the fact that “there were no nightclubs and bowling alleys” for him to spend his meager income on, and in June of 1962, he returned to the United States with his pregnant Russian wife, who was 19 years old at the time. In March of 1963, he made a mail-order purchase of a firearm, and then in April of the same year, he made an attempt to murder a retired major general who was known for his staunch anti-communist stance. In the month of may, he went against the recommendations of his own party and started up a fair play for cuba office in new orleans, of which he was the only member. He handed out pamphlets, got into fights, and gained enemies as a result of his actions. He had the ambition to become someone important throughout his life, but he was never successful. When he went for Mexico at the end of September and requested to visit Cuba, he was denied entry by a consulate officer who said that: “instead of assisting the Cuban Revolution, he was really doing it damage.” If terrible things hadn’t been about to happen, a comedy movie might have been fashioned out of the situation. We are currently at the beginning of his last “year of revolution,” which began when he was 24 years old and lasted for five weeks. By that point, he was a simmering cauldron of hatred for his country and admiration for marxism. He was a strong supporter of Cuba and its cause. He yearned to return to Russia, if only for a little excursion. Because it had been reported in the media, he was aware of the path that the motorcade would follow. he was aware of the time, and he was also aware that he had a chance to act. However, it was his choice alone to conceal himself on the sixth story of the building where he worked as a book depository and deploy his marksman-level shooting talents to devastating effect. In the end, he was an isolated sociopath who had a twisted ambition to make his imprint on history. It seemed like no matter what he tried, he was never really successful. He was only ever successful in one thing, and that was on his third attempt. he let off a total of three shots. The first bullet failed to hit its target, but the second one struck Kennedy and Governor Connally, both of whom were injured. The president was struck in the head by the third bullet. Because of this one act of notoriety, he would be remembered throughout history. Two days after his capture, he was executed in what I have come to refer to as “a revolutionary death in a revolutionary year.” However, his execution was not the only one of its kind during that year. We were never able to reach August 1964, thus we will never know how the events of that month may have played out. The embassy in Cuba belatedly accepted his visa on October 18th, which was his actual 24th birthday; but, by that time, he had already returned to the United States. Eleven days before the killing, he sent a letter to the Soviet embassy in Washington, in which he said that he could have continued on to Russia if he had arrived in Cuba as planned. If only it were the case. His whole existence served as a cautionary tale about how he did not belong in society. in the interest of bringing the system to its knees. Despite this, it is terrible that he continued to lie his way through life and take advantage of the freedoms that came with being a free citizen. Imagine, if you will, if the identical scenario took place in communist Russia but in the opposite order. articles on similar topics include: lee harvey oswald, the 50th anniversary of the murder of john f. kennedy, a new philosophy of life, the ‘life cycles’ forensics investigation, and Send a copy of this article to a friend via email! get email updates including stories much like this one right to your inbox.
