That's because Landis has just come forward with a personal account of that day in Dallas when Kennedy was shot that, if true, puts the quietus to what has gone down in history as the "magic-bullet" theory, which is the core principle of the lone-nut theory of the assassination.

I would assume that my readers are familiar with the magic-bullet theory. I would ask them to bear with me here. In case there are readers of my blog who are not familiar with that theory, I wish to set forth its basics.

The official narrative of the assassination, which is set forth by the Warren Commission, is that a lone-nut former communist Marine named Lee Harvey Oswald, who just happened to be at the right place at the right time, just decided, with no apparent motive, that he was going to assassinate President Kennedy.

The official narrative holds that this lone-nut former communist Marine fired three shots at the president, two of which hit Kennedy and one of which missed him entirely and instead hit a bystander. 

It was also determined that Oswald could not have fired more than three shots at the president in the pertinent time span. A fourth shot would necessarily have meant that there was another person also shooting at the president. 

However, there was a problem. That problem was that Texas Governor John Connally, who was seated in front of the president, also got shot. That, of course, would mean a fourth shot, which would automatically mean an additional shooter.
