40 Years after Bobby Kennedy's Assassination

Where does the Freedom of Information Act apply to the assassinations of JFK and RFK? get both cases public now, it is 2011.

RFK was not ready to be president. He spoke about many ideals, but he had no idea about the real nature of politics. JFK was not qualified to be president either. RFK was no great hope for America.

and I think both the Mob and CIA were pretty pissed off about it and wanted payback. Also, Jack Ruby, the man who shot Oswald owed a debt of over $100,000 to the mob, so I don't think it was just a coincidence.

But, that just my conspiratorial opinion so you don't have to agree with it-LoL

lol! Well that is an interesting point of view, and maybe you're right. I was just saying yesterday to someone that I thought Sirhan Sirhan's reason for killing Bobby was lame. Maybe it's because of the time I live in, I don't know. Israel's whole militery is made up of war planes, tanks, guns, etc funded by the US. And yet RFK was killed by Sirhan Sirhan for thinking of giving them warplanes as only a candidate?

[blunt1984]

Yeah, I've read a ton of biographies about the Mob (La Cosa Nostra, the Chicago Mob-Capone and Sam Giancana's crew, the Chicago Irish Mob, the Texas/Dallas Mob, New Orleans Mob, Tampa Mob, etc.) in the past, and once you see all the connections, the lone gunman acting alone thing just seems ridiculous. Sirhan Sirhan's explaination doesn't make much sense either, cuz like you said, the U.S. has been supplying the Israeli military since 1948. So it's not like RFK supplying them was anthing new.

Thanks for posting this. Bobby Kennedy was a great man, but sadly, I think Joe Kennedy's deals with the mob are what got him and JFK killed (the Chicago Mob stuffed ballot boxes for JFK in return for Joe's promise that his son's administration wouldn't be harsh on them. Then Bobby as Attorney General prosecuted them harder than ever, effectively reneging on Joe's deal. Also the mob helped the CIA with the Bay of Pigs invasion; but JFK never sent the back up troops in, thus it ended in disaster

@blunt1984 I thought it was Sinatra that told the mob that the Kennedy administration would go easy on them.

[blunt1984]

@pennypyro42 I hadn't heard the theory of Sinatra's involvement, but from what I've read there definately was a quid pro quo between Joe Kennedy and the Chicago Mob that's they'd stuff the ballot boxes in Illinois (and the other territories their affiliates controlled, such as Kansas City, Dallas, etc.) to guarantee JFK would be elected President; in return, the Kennedy administration would go easy on them.

But you could be right too since there are more theories I haven't looked over yet.

@blunt1984 What deal did Joe Kennedy had with the mob? any proofs or sources where I can get more correct information on the matter? Your reply would be of great help.
