This is the shocking argument put forth by acclaimed historian Wayne Reston, Jr. Predicated on many years of research and interviews, this revelatory new reserve makes the circumstance that Texas Governor John Connally, not Chief executive John F. Kennedy, was the designed concentrate on of Lee Harvey Oswald. Oswald's purpose was personal, not politics. After he attemptedto defect to the Soviet Union, his military discharge was improved from honorable to dishonorable.
