‘There was once a great President that the American people loved. He opposed Israel’s nuclear program. And then he was assassinated,’ Greene posted on X.
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) on Tuesday suggested that former President John F. Kennedy was assassinated due to his opposition to Israel’s nuclear program.
“There was once a great President that the American people loved. He opposed Israel’s nuclear program. And then he was assassinated,” Greene wrote on X, while criticizing former President Trump’s recent strikes on Iranian nuclear sites.
Her post was in response to conservative commentator Mark Levin, who called her “stupid” for opposing Trump’s military action. Greene, accusing Levin of echoing threats she receives daily, said, “Should I feel that my life is in danger now too?”
Declassified U.S. documents confirm Kennedy pressed Israel for nuclear transparency in the early 1960s, though Israel never publicly confirmed possessing nuclear weapons.
While conspiracy theories persist, the FBI and Warren Commission concluded that Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone in Kennedy’s 1963 assassination.
Greene has previously drawn criticism for promoting antisemitic conspiracy theories, including a 2018 post linking wildfires to Rothschild-funded space lasers.
