Many books have attempted to explain why JFK was murdered. A recent
one, JFK and the Unspeakable by James Douglass, does the best job in
my opinion. See a review here by Democratic Underground.

"Regicide" by Gregory Douglas explains how the assassination was
carried out. The author uses documents obtained from the late Robert
T. Crowley, former Assistant Deputy Director of Clandestine
Operations for the CIA. His career with the agency began at its
inception in 1947 and ended with his retirement in the mid 80's. He
was involved in most of the important operations.
Crowley's instructions to the author were that the documents could
not be used or attributed to him during his lifetime. When he died in
Oct of 2000, this embargo was lifted.
Four of the chapters examine:
the facts of the assassination
Lee Harvey Oswald
Jack Rubenstein ("Ruby")
the official cover up
Included in these chapters are translations of the Soviet
Intelligence Study, excerpts from the official Warren Commission
Report, the Defense Intelligence Agency's analysis and the author's comments.
Later chapters examine the various groups who disliked or hated
Kennedy and had the means to terminate his presidency. The group that
had the strongest motive to carry out the assassination and the
ability to cover it up is highlighted.
Many of the other topics covered will probably be new information to
most people. This is because they were disclosed by a very high
official who was also involved in the operation.
Here are some in no particular order:
Operation "ZIPPER" (the forced removal of JFK)
This was the code name known within the agency "this operation was
implemented with the help, approval and/or knowledge of the FBI, the
Joint Chiefs of Staff and the Vice President, Lyndon B. Johnson under
the aegis of the CIA."
The "ZIPPER" document reveals the names and official positions of
those who directed the killers.
LBJ and Gov. Connally planned the trip to Texas 5 months prior to 11/63.
A comment from a Russian about material that could have only come
from the President's CIA briefing papers convinced the agency that
the Kennedys had been engaging in treasonable activities and had
severely compromised a large number of important CIA agents and
operations throughout the world.
By late Feb 1963, a general outline of the plot was well set.
Chicago mob boss Sam Giancano was contacted for possible assistance.
He suggested recruitment of the shooters might be better done outside the U.S.
The CIA's liaison with the mob was James J. Angleton, an agent in
charge of counter-intelligence. He contacted a friend of his who was
with Israeli counter-intelligence. They were asked to eliminate the
shooters after their job was done.
George Mohrenschildt, who worked for the CIA, met Oswald by accident
through his connection with the Russian community in Dallas. He
became Oswald's mentor and, according to a later classified CIA
report, his lover.
Mary Pinchot Meyer, a long time mistress of JFK, was shot to death
Oct. 12, 1964. She was found in a wooded area near her Georgetown studio.
She'd been shot once in the head and once in the upper body, a
professional technique. She was also the former wife of Cord Meyer
Jr., a senior CIA official.
Now deceased comedian Bill Hicks had a number of interesting comments
about the assassination. Watch a video clip
here.
