This is a reference to two things. First, RFK really did not like the Shah. And it was mutual. So Bobby commissioned a private study on what it would take to bring back Mossadegh.
The Shah really understood that RFK was serious. He responded with the White Revolution.
The problem was that the after JFK passed, the attitude by LBJ toward the Shah was much more softer due to Johnson's close relations with the Rockefellers, especially Nelson. Then of course, it got worse under Nixon due to the Kissinger/David Rockefeller compact.
The Shah, if I recall, did not attend RFK's funeral.
Furthermore, when Jimmy Carter refused to let the Shah into the U.S. for medical treatment, David Rockefeller initiated Project Alpha--the point of which was to isolate Carter to the point where he had no choice but to change his mind.
One part of this strategy appears to have been a (very thinly) coded message in the form of a foiled assassination plot. The two would be assassins names being "Ray Lee Harvey" and "Oswaldo Ortiz."
If this doesn't clue you in as to who was at the Sponsorship level of the plot then nothing will.
“The most difficult subjects can be explained to the most slow-witted man if he has not formed any idea of them already; but the simplest thing cannot be made clear to the most intelligent man if he is firmly persuaded that he knows already, without a shadow of doubt, what is laid before him.â€
