Robert Kennedy Jr. Blames CIA for Assassination of JFK

The Epoch Times Header

Democratic White House contender Robert Kennedy Jr. recently blamed the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) for the assassination of his uncle, President John F. Kennedy, in 1963.

Kennedy Jr., the son of assassinated Sen. Robert F. Kennedy, made the allegation on Sunday with John Catsimatidis on WABC 770 AMโ€™s โ€œCats Roundtable.โ€ Theories around JFKโ€™s assassination have endured throughout the decades, with many others speculating that the CIA, former President Lyndon B. Johnson, the mafia, the Soviet KGB, Jackie Onassis Kennedy, or the Fidel Castro regimeโ€”or some combination thereofโ€”were involved in his death.

โ€œThere is overwhelming evidence that the CIA was involved in his murder. I think itโ€™s beyond a reasonable doubt at this point,โ€ Kennedy said about the November 1963 incident in Dallas, Texas. โ€œThe evidence is overwhelming that the CIA was involved in the murder, and in the cover-up,โ€ he also said.

Kennedy made reference to the book, โ€œJFK and the Unspeakable,โ€ penned by James Douglas, for some of his assertions. The book theorized that Kennedy was assassinated because he sought peacemaking during the Cold War and was then killed by his own security apparatus.

The federal government concluded during its Warren Commission Report that shooter Lee Harvey Oswald was the lone suspect in the assassination. They said there was no credible evidence to suggest that he was part of a wider assassination conspiracy.

Oswald was shot and killed by alleged Chicago mob associate Jack Ruby two days after Oswald was accused of the assassination. Ruby would be later convicted of the murder and sentenced to death, but he died in prison several years later.

The CIA has long denied any involvement in the former presidentโ€™s death. An article published on the intelligence agencyโ€™s website (pdf) says that it was a โ€œlieโ€ that connected the CIA โ€œto the Kennedy assassination,โ€ alleging it was part of a Soviet KGB โ€œdisinformationโ€ campaign and then cast aspersions against director Oliver Stoneโ€™s 1991 film โ€œJFK, โ€ which strongly suggested that the CIA and other federal officials may have been involved in the assassination.
