The slain US president’s nephew called the Warren Commission investigation a “Kabuki theater” US spies involved in attacks on Cuba had the motive, means, and opportunity to assassinate President John Fitzgerald Kennedy in 1963, and the subsequent investigation was a coverup run by an ex-CIA director, according to Robert Francis Kennedy Jr.
The impetus for the assassination came from the group of agents involved in the Miami station of the CIA, RFK Jr. told independent journalist Tucker Carlson in an extensive interview posted on Twitter on Monday.
This group was “angry at my uncle for not sending air cover during the Bay of Pigs invasion, and even more so after the 1962 Cuban missile crisis,” Kennedy said. After JFK made a deal to defuse the nuclear crisis with Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev, he also “shut down all the Cuban attacks by Office 66 and these other groups that were harassing Cuba,” RFK Jr. added.
According to him, the CIA was working together with the mafia, which wanted to regain the casinos and other properties in Havana that were nationalized after Fidel Castro’s Communist revolution.
JFK had wanted to separate the intelligence-gathering branch of the CIA from the planning division, RFK Jr. said, describing the latter as “the ones that assassinate people, fix elections, overthrow governments.” Before he could do so, he was assassinated during a visit to Dallas, Texas, on November 22, 1963.
