Re: Ever think about who we assasinate?
[ QUOTE ]
Wow, reading up on Bobby Kennedy a bit more, this was truly a great man, MUCH better than his brother. After the assassination of President Kennedy, Robert Kennedy undertook a 1966 tour of South Africa in which he championed the cause of the anti-Apartheid movement. The tour was greeted with international praise at a time when few politicians dared to entangle themselves in the politics of South Africa. Kennedy spoke out against the oppression of the native population and was welcomed by the black population as though a visiting head of state. In an interview with LOOK Magazine he had this to say: "At the University of Natal in Durban, I was told the church to which most of the white population belongs teaches apartheid as a moral necessity. A questioner declared that few churches allow black Africans to pray with the white because the Bible says that is the way it should be, because God created Negroes to serve. 'But suppose God is black', I replied. 'What if we go to Heaven and we, all our lives, have treated the Negro as an inferior, and God is there, and we look up and He is not white? What then is our response?' There was no answer. Only silence." In June 1966, Kennedy visited apartheid-ruled South Africa accompanied by his wife, Ethel Kennedy, and a small number of aides. At the University of Cape Town he delivered the Annual Day of Affirmation Speech. A quote from this address appears on his gravestone at Arlington National Cemetery. ("Each time a man stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope....")[14] About his platform when running for Pres: "Kennedy stood on a ticket of racial and economic justice, non-aggression in foreign policy, decentralization of power and social improvement. A crucial element to his campaign was an engagement with the young, whom he identified as being the future of a reinvigorated American society based on partnership and equality." [/ QUOTE ] Sounds like a prime candidate for the bankers/black ops to assassinate.

[/ QUOTE ] yes, obv, of course, but not usually as it pertains to a bully, and on an unrelated note, I find the guise of co-operation works much more effectively to achieving a particular goal than anything else.

Your personal attacks against me are shameful, and do a lot to expose how insecure you are when talking about things like politics and philosophy. If you had points to contribute, you'd make them, instead of flying into hysterical fits of name calling. [/ QUOTE ] QFT.

I think this thread should have been titled "Ever think about how people who are assassinated are then glorified retroactively?" [/ QUOTE ] Thread winner.
