The Attempted Assassination of Franklin D. Roosevelt

February 15, 1933 (one month before being sworn in for his first term in office): In Miami, Florida, Giuseppe Zangara fired five shots at Roosevelt. Four people were wounded and Chicago Mayor Anton Cermak was killed. Zangara was found guilty of murder and was executed March 20, 1933. Some researchers believe Cermak, not Roosevelt, was the intended target that day, as the mayor was a staunch foe of Al Capone's Chicago mob organization.

Listen to the police undercover tape of right wing racist extremist J.A. Milteer if you doubt any of this.

So, the invisible government failed to get rid of FDR and FDR endeared himself to the people by governing in the interest of the common man. The rich despised him for it. In 1963, the same general group of insiders succeeded and JFK went the way of Lincoln. Hopefully, most people by now have figured out that there was a lot more to the Lincoln Assassination that just John Wilkes Booth. JFK wanted to help the common man and it got him killed. Study the Gracchus brothers of ancient Rome.

The Wall Street Plot was in fact exposed by the good general as stated herein by someone else and actually reported at the time, but "forgotten" b/c there was no way the most influential families in America were going to be brought to justice for attempting a coup, was there? Kind of like 1963. George Bush the Elder said at the time (referring to JFK's demise), that if the American people knew what they had done, they would be lynched. Well, a coup is what happened.

I am unsure. I suspect this was in fact an attempt to kill FDR and that it came from the usual sources. It's an old story going back to Andrew Jackson, Lincoln, Garfield, McKinley and JFK and RFK. They find a lone nut who is "crazy" and he gets the whole thing pinned on him and we're supposed to be so stupid we the people can never figure out what really happened. They got way too cute in the 1960s and now most people know that something very dishonest transpired.

Sam Giancana's brother and nephew wrote a book "Double Cross," that made many claims contrary to the history put out by official media and gov't people. For instance, he said that Anton Cermak was corrupt, betrayed the mob and this attempt was actually to kill him, not FDR ... and it worked. So, that is a different spin that one usually gets.

General Smedley Butler blew the whistle on another plot to kill Roosevelt. He went to congress and told the country about it. Bush's Grandpa was involved in that plot as were a bunch of bankers and other sub-humans.

From the time of this shooting--until the execution, even though Cermak lived almost 2 2 weeks, only 31 days passed.

How's that for fast justice...was there more to this?

I think so...I wrote an entire manuscript about this and related issues.

@gosciu555 Could you give me any CREDIBLE evidence that the botched attempt on FDR that killed Cermak was a conspiracy?

[gosciu555]

@MIKESOWELL

What do you mean "a conspiracy?" Its basic politics. Besides Tarpley said it, which you can take to the bank ;)

[MIKESOWELL]

@gosciu555 I bet you think every killing of a political figure is a conspiracy, huh?
