Free Download Bruce H Bell, "My Father Killed President John F. Kennedy: A Memoir: Revised Edition"
English | ISBN: 1998784525 | 2022 | 420 pages | PDF | 43 MB
"In my more than half a century of studying the issues of the assassination, I have heard many stories and have never been as impressed as I am with Bruce’s. I do believe that this is a true and factual story concerning the assassination of President Kennedy, finally. In the fourteen publications that I have released since 1975, I have always dealt with the physical evidence in the case and never tried to deal with a story of the inner workings of the conspiracy. This is the first time that I’ve dealt with the part of the biggest crime of the twentieth century. Others have unfortunately rushed to judgment and scorned other stories about the assassination, and thrown away what might have been important historical evidence. I suggest that the reader keep an open mind and understand what Bruce has gone through to bring us his story."

Over the course of his career, Einstein introduced modern science to the concept of space-time, inadvertently launched America on the path towards developing the atomic bomb, and was offered the presidency of Israel. He was the first scientific superstar-a world-wide celebrity whose popularity was matched only by his astounding feats of imagination.
