Lisa Pease on the RFK case: The Grand Illusion

[Peter Lemkin]

Very good piece. Depressing that we have such proof of conspiracy and and honest autopsy, yet the lie continues. Sirhan's lawyers should have been disbarred.

Keep in mind that his lawyers didn't have the autopsy until well into the trial. The problem was that the media was so quick to try the guy in the press that his lawyers plead guilty in hopes of getting a lesser sentence. The "trial" was just to determine this sentence.


What interests me about Sirhan is that he arguably marked the first appearance of the anti-Moslem meme that reached its final form with the events, or pseudo-events, of 9/11. In some sense it also marked the transition from the decapitation of the left in America to the demonization of the (oil producing) Moslem world. There is also a parallel here with the use of the "defector" Lee Oswald to demonize the Russians.

I do not care WHEN the defense got the autopsy.

Quoting from Dr. Philip Melanson's "The Robert F Kennedy Assassination"
When Noguchi "testified that RFK was shot behind the right ear with the weapon as close as one inch away, the discrepancy slid by unexplored. In fact it was the defense that cut Noguchi's testimony short, contending that the Cororner did not have to get into the 'gory details' about the precise location of wounds and the angle and distance of firing"

Disgraceful.

Truly shameful (sic) for a coroner to 'get into gory details....' F***, that is what they do all the time....every day, every case! It is their F***ing job to come up with the truthful, if gory, details!
