SR Miller Iām not at all deeply versed in OSS or 1963 CIA. I just think there was more to killing JFK so publicly. I found this Video on OSS. They had formed in 1943 just 20 years before they murdered Kennedy. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Office_of_Strategic_Services
USSR, Cuber, who knows; Iām of the opinion we may never know if there was more to it than Oswald. Frankly, itās not something I think about nor loose sleep over. We can speculate until the gummint becomes fiscally responsible and knowing who/what would be naught but an historical footnote. But, hereās something to think about: you do know who was around in 1963?, Biden! Oh sure, heād have been young but is there any aspect of life where he hasnāt excelled - as he repeatedly informs us. By eliminating Kennedy from his perch as the soon to be elder statesman of the democrat party, the path is cleared for Biden to begin ascending. Two term Kennedy, no Future President Biden. Two term Kennedy upsets the whole Apple cart - no Johnson, no new deal, Clinton never does better than a beat up El Camino with shag rug in the rear; Obamaās mentor is deported or imprisoned as a commie sympathizer and today weād be growing Christmas Cacti on Mars.
Oops, slipped into writer mode and began belching rainbows and unicorns. Again.
Little known fact in this alternate history, Ronald Wilson Reagan still becomes President, but Nixon never does - Governor of California after Reagan š
Yes, why so publically? Perhaps to send a message to some people? Would this have to do with his being Catholic? Millions of Catholics around the world were devastated.
Not opining either way with your post, but:
OSS -> CIA.

All except biden Iād be willing to bet.
Good point about the publically. They certainly didn't need to do it publically, did they?
