Evidence That the CIA Murdered RFK

A new BBC documentary supports the conclusion that the CIA planned and executed the assassination of Robert Kennedy. The new video and photographic evidence -- the result of a three year long investigation --"puts three senior CIA operatives" at the scene of the murder.

Three of these men have been positively identified as senior officers who worked together in 1963 at JMWAVE, the CIA's Miami base for its Secret War on Castro.

David Morales was Chief of Operations and once told friends: "I was in Dallas when we got the son of a bitch and I was in Los Angeles when we got the little bastard."

Gordon Campbell was Chief of Maritime Operations and George Joannides was Chief of Psychological Warfare Operations.

Joannides was called out of retirement in 1978 to act as the CIA liaison to the Congressional investigation into the JFK assassination. Now, we see him at the Ambassador Hotel the night a second Kennedy is assassinated.

--CIA role in Kennedy killing
As with the 1963 murder of JFK in Dallas, lingering questions dog the official theories. Powder burns indicated that three shots had been fired from very close range from 0 to 1-1/2 inches though no witness could place Sirhan closer than three feet. Sirhan's gun held only eight bullets but a total of ten were recovered. Three were found in Kennedy. Two were lodged in a pantry door frame. One was found in an airspace. Presumably four more were found elsewhere. Significantly, four bullets 'touched' Kennedy to include the three that were recovered --lodged --in his back. At no time was Sirhan ever behind RFK.
Inexcusably, the door frames were burned, the Los Angeles Police Dept. claimed no bullets were found lodged in the "bullet holes", and two expended bullets (inexplicably dug out of wood) were soon found in the front seat of Sirhan's car. The LAPD then destroyed their records of the tests that had been done on the "bullet holes" in the doorframe.

--Facts about the Robert F. Kennedy Assassination
Found on the Ron Paul forum:
When the hypnotized patsy, Sirhan Sirhan, opened fire on Robert Kennedy from the front, a CIA agent fired the kill shot at close range into the back of Kennedy's head.

The same agent who coordinated the operation and was at the scene, was later brought out of retirement to "handle" the congressional investigation into the assassination.

All 3 members of the assassination team are now dead, but many of those connected to them still hold high offices in government.
The BBC report by Shane O'Sullivane reveals that CIA operatives and four unidentified associates were at the Ambassador Hotel, Los Angeles the night of June 5, 1968, moments before and after the murder. It was broadcast on BBC Newsnight.
The CIA had no domestic jurisdiction and some of the officers were based in South-East Asia at the time, with no reason to be in Los Angeles.

Kennedy had just won the California Democratic primary on an anti-War ticket and was set to challenge Nixon for the White House when he was shot in a kitchen pantry.

A 24-year-old Palestinian, Sirhan Sirhan, was arrested as the lone assassin and notebooks at his house seemed to incriminate him.

However, even under hypnosis, he has never been able to remember the shooting and defence psychiatrists concluded he was in a trance at the time.

Witnesses placed Sirhan's gun several feet in front of Kennedy but the autopsy showed the fatal shot came from one inch behind.

--CIA role in Kennedy killing
It is not surprising that the CIA would be implicated in the murder of RFK. It is tragic that the same scrutiny was not forthcoming sooner --when it might have done some good. It is tragic that the murder of JFK was not likewise scrutinized. It is tragic that the investigation of this murder was left in the hands of an incompetent Los Angeles Police Department about which there is no adjective to describe the utter incompetence given this case. Earlier there was no adjective to describe the criminal neglect given the murder of JFK in Dallas!

The world's number one terrorist organization, the CIA has committed heinous acts of terrorism abroad, murdering critics of US foreign and domestic policies and has done it on behalf of an increasingly tiny, privileged American elite. This tiny elite of some one percent owns more than the combined wealth of 95% of the entire population. [See: the L-Curve] On behalf of this tiny, privileged base, the CIA has placed itself above law and supervision. The CIA's war on the world has claimed an estimated 12 million to 20 million victims, far more than the best estimates attributed to Adolph Hitler's 'Holocaust' of World War II.


Evidence That the CIA Murdered Bobby Kennedy

The RFK assassination was, like the assassinations of JFK, Malcolm X, Martin Luther King, Jr., and other prominent figures, a political murder committed by operatives and agents of the US government (including, but limited to, the CIA and FBI), in conjunction with local police (operating as CIA cutouts), and intelligence-connected organized crime figures and mercenaries.

The CIA & another patsy

Another patsy was Oswald. Even former President Harry S. Truman "saw an ominous link between the death of the President and the CIA".

In (Colonel) L. Fletcher Prouty's book "JFK, The CIA, Vietnam And The Plot To Assassinate John F. Kennedy", he wrote of that.  He also wrote that President Truman confided to close friends that the greatest mistake of his administration took place when he signed the National Security Act of 1947 into law which among other things created the CIA. It was created to be an intelligence organization  whose agents are limited to gathering and reporting of intelligence and who have no police functions or the power to arrest at home or abroad..

That CIA does not exist. JFK was removed because he threatend the "system" and he also wanted to severly limit the CIA or eliminate it altogether.

Born in Philadelphia, grew up on a farm, which my parents lost in the Great Depression. I suppose my political inclination began when I watched Dad ride our horse across snow-covered fields to vote for FDR. Married, three great sons, divorced. Still learning.

Crimes never investigated!

To me, the most damning evidence is the fact that NOT ONE OF THESE CRIMES WAS EVER INVESTIGATED. Not the murders of Jack Kennedy, Bobby Kennedy, Martin Luther King, Paul Wellstone. Not the collapse of the Federal Building in Oklahoma City or the Twin Towers and Building Seven in New York!
In any murder case, there's a police investigation, collection of evidence, measurements, fingerprints, bullets, the angle of shots fired, witnesses, testimony. In any air crash, there's an FAA investigation, up to and including retrieval of all pieces of that aircraft and careful reassembly to determine the cause. In any building or bridge collapse, there's an investigation to discover what happened. Yet in NONE of these crimes was there anything approximating a thorough investigation! They were all of the "move along, folks, nothing to see here" variety.
That says it all.

Crimes never investigated

The 'tiny elite' that really runs things will NEVER be investigated for a panoply of crimes too numerous to list here. Poor folk, by contrast, get a public defender whose real job is to just get the poor slobs processed and outta site. As a result, most people wind up in corporate run hell holes that looks like something out of an apocalyptic movie. Been to Texas lately? The future is now ---corporate run prisons for whom the laws do not apply. Texas is not called the Gulag State for nothing.
