(24,396 posts)Sorry, but I don't believe it. RFK Jr has little credibility these days, at least with me.
Notice that Jr can't get at all specific about what his father "really thought." More mystery cloaked in an enigma. No names, no places, just shadowy references that keep the CTs alive as a cash cow for the fact-ignoring authors.
And so sad to see Jr adding to the perception that his dad & JFK were spineless, feckless politicians who were afraid to say what they really felt in public, who were easily manipulated by the powers that swirled around them. The men who stared down Kruschev in Cuba and who were ready to go to the mat (ie: war) over Soviet aggression didn't have the guts to - in JFK's instance - publicly declare that he was pulling out of Nam (even though he supposedly felt that way in private), and - in RFK's instance - didn't have the guts to publicly challenge the findings of the WCR and demand further investigation of his brother's murder, when nobody in the world would have blamed him for demanding more investigation. That's what all of you "what he really said in private" CTists are averring, are you not?
Sorry, those aren't the two men I remember from my childhood.
