What is politics?

Politics is the means by which the elites absorb economic interests, and a coup is a game played by various forces to ensure their own interests. Justice can only be achieved by standing in the ranks of those in power. The truth you know is just that those in power want you to know the truth.

This is the biggest insight after watching "Assassination of Kennedy". Kennedy advocated the withdrawal of troops from Vietnam, which harmed the interests of the majority of the forces. For this reason, several of the largest power agencies in the United States jointly planned the assassination of Kennedy. In order for the next president to become their puppet, they advocated the Vietnam War and shot to kill the soon-to-be-elected. The brother of Kennedy who had withdrawn.

Garrison has a large amount of evidence and is gradually approaching the truth. However, the intelligence agencies have already monitored him, and key witnesses are threatened with death and are reluctant to testify in court. With the murder of witnesses, the mutiny of team members, the loss of evidence, and the threats to family members and himself, the film reaches a climax, and at the same time shows Garrison's unyielding fighting spirit and belief in fighting for justice. Even if he produced evidence of Kennedy's murder in court, the members of the jury were all beneficiaries of interests, and in order to safeguard their own interests, Crenshaw was acquitted. The ending tells us that justice is no match for politics, and that we will face a road full of thorns if we want to uphold justice.

End credits: I would like to dedicate this film to people with ideals. This is not a kind of helplessness, after all, the purpose of this film is to tell us to stick to our ideals.

    The old man in Hemingway's The Old Man and the Sea exposes the conspiracy theory that K suffered in Kafka's The Trial. Dramatic conflicts such as masked characterizations and family careers feel a little naive, but the final long courtroom argument is poignant enough. Prejudice does not hinder good-looking

    To be a forward and a bitch again, this is Oliver Stone. The first half is basically consistent with the exposed historical facts, but the second third began to be dung. He insisted on the so-called conspiracy theory of murder. Selectively ignoring the jealous entanglement between JFK and gang leader Moni when JFK was elected president, it seems very angry. How can JFK have the opportunity to stay in the White House without the strong support of Moni and the American gang? Such speculation is really inappropriate

JFK quotes

  • Jim Garrison: Back, and to the left... back, and to the left... back, and to the left.

  • White House Man: We have to control the intelligence from Saigon.

    Lyndon B. Johnson: Well don't let McNamara start sticking his damn nose in this thing! Every time he goes over to Saigon on some fuckin' fact-finding mission, he comes back and just scares the shit out of the President! Now I want Max Taylor on him night and day, like a fly on shit. Now you control McNamara, and you control Kennedy.
