jfk 1967 exhumation

[fobrien1]

jfk was exhumed 4 years after his death in 1967 and his casket moved to where it still rests today . its not far from his original resting place . rfk was in attendance as can be seen by the film . sadly the following june rfk would end up in arlington laying not far from his brother .

what we lost in the 60s is probably still beyond comprehension by many . its too great to measure . but we can say with jfk alone that he was pulling out of vietnam , thats 10 years of war we wouldnt have had . 50000 americans wouldnt have died , countless others maimed or mentally scarred for life . between 1 and 2 million vietnamese who wouldnt have died . the cold war could have ended in jfks second term , instead we had 30 or so years of cold war and countless billions and trillions spent on weapons of war . thats just one man and look at what he could have changed had he lived .

marlin luther king once said

"mankind must put an end to war , or war will put an end to mankind "

jfk , rfk and dr king men who were by no means perfect , but all men who wanted peace , men who saw the futility of war , the stupidity of war , and what a future of war would mean for the people on this earth . isnt it funny how jfk/rfk  men of peace were replaced with men of war , and those wars persist today . now we have a lunatic in washington and another in korea both itching to make dr kings words prophetic .
