I agree with you about JFK. RFK not so much.

Sirhan Sirhan could have been a sick anarchist acting alone trying to make a name for himself (like Mark David Chapman) in the name of some warped ideology or religion.

The bullets that killed RFK were fired contact close into his back. Sirhan Sirhan was in the front. And more bullets were found in the room than his gun held.

This per his son, who has publicly named the person--who was part of his security detail--who murdered his father.

Would it be possible to have a Presidential candidate killed in such a way, and not have it show up in the autopsy? Yes. Definitely yes.

It was Palestinian nationalism.

I have always found it very curious how Sirhan's motives were glossed over. I do not know what they were, but wouldn't a peek have been in order?
