Democratic presidential hopeful Robert Kennedy Jr. has asserted that the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) is “beyond a reasonable doubt” responsible for the assassination of his uncle, President John F. Kennedy, according to a report from Just the News.
In a recent radio interview, Kennedy stated, “There is overwhelming evidence that the CIA was involved in his murder. I think it’s beyond a reasonable doubt at this point.”
He further emphasized that “the evidence is overwhelming that the CIA was involved in the murder, and in the cover-up.”
During the interview, Kennedy recommended James Douglas’ book, “JFK and the Unspeakable,” for those interested in learning more about the subject.
Kennedy, who was only 14 when his father, Robert Kennedy, was assassinated during his 1968 presidential campaign, conceded that while the evidence pointing to the CIA’s involvement in his father’s death is convincing, it remains circumstantial.
The official congressional investigation into John F. Kennedy’s death, the Warren Commission, concluded in 1964 that Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone in assassinating the president.
However, a 1979 report by the House Select Committee on Assassinations found that Kennedy was “probably assassinated as a result of a conspiracy,” though it dismissed the involvement of the FBI, CIA, and Secret Service in the plot.
Sirhan Sirhan, identified as a Palestinian communist, was found guilty of assassinating Robert Kennedy, the father of Kennedy Jr.
Yet, in 2021, the presidential contender contended that “overwhelming evidence” suggests that “Sirhan is not my father’s killer.”
