Read some books on it.  Kennedy and some others close to him were shocked that "remove Diem" turned into "kill Diem." They wanted the guy to go into exile.  They didn't want him to die.

Then why earlier today did you ask this question? (bold) My point has always been Kennedy did not order the CIA to do anything. He did think the CIA was exhibiting signs of a "state within a state" mentality. Can't remember the book

If Kennedy wanted to be less involved with South Vietnam, why did he order the CIA to kill Diem?
