I wonder what kind of conspiracy he suspected in the RFK case. There is very little discussion of who was behind RFK's murder - we generally assume "the same forces who killed his brother" - or what kind of patsy/group they were trying to blame. Obviously not Cuba in this case.
With Sirhan (a Christian Palestinian) and the other Middle Eastern-looking people that several witnesses saw, I personally see a clever attempt (by CIA/Mossad/SAVAK) to manipulate some radical Palestinian group like al-Fatah to be blamed. This would incite American public opinion against the Arabs and in favor of Israel (like the botched USS Liberty attack was supposed to do). But apparently others in the government (local and federal) decided to ignore all of that and go the "lone nut" route.
