Dear Global Forum Members and Readers:

03.16.2025 - Phil Dragoo, a friend and a distinguished researcher, and writer about JFK, RFK, etc., and related subject matters
posted his 5 Star Review of THE MURDER OF RFK, 2025, by Michael Calder, a brilliant author, researcher, writer and friend on
Amazon.

THE MURDER OF RFK is a Masterpiece by Michael Calder.

Michael Calder and I became acquainted decades ago while he was interviewing/meeting with Sirhan Bishara Sirhan in a California
penitentiary and simultaneously I was interviewing/meeting with Jimmy Files, the confessed Grassy Knoll CIA/Chicago Outfit
assassin of JFK, at Illinois' Stateville Penitentiary.

Michael Calder's efforts at documentation, in depth research and writing are phenomenal.

Among the voluminous documented facts in THE MURDER OF RFK the most interesting fact that Michael Calder unearthed to me
was that the man who planned JFK's route in Dallas, Texas also planned RFK's route in California.

Author Michael Calder continues the focus he began with his 2000 work, JFK vs CIA, namely that an Agency program, begun
in the '50's, was central to the 1968 operation.

The reader will recall that as Nixon transferred Johnson's Director of Central Intelligence (1966) to be US ambassador to Iran,
Richard Helms ordered MKULTRA chief Sidney Gottlieb to destroy the vast record of that twenty-year quest for a Manchurian
Candidate.

After the removal of JFK in 1963, the following year in Los Angeles an unknown named Sirhan Sirhan was being prepared as
just such a programmed assassin.

In the period prior to the removal of RFK, Sirhan would disappear from friends and family for a three-month period, a veritable
black hole of time and place unknown to Sirhan and all who knew him.

We see further signs of manipulation in the days prior to the Ambassador assassination. Sirhan is seen in the company of a taller
young man, and a young woman whose presence the fatal night was noted by a dozen or more—and concealed by police.

All eyes on the prepared patsy: Sirhan, prompted by the “girl in the polka-dot dress”, performed perfectly—and drew the attention
of most of the seventy persons present in the pantry.

Still, enough witnesses attested to a rear shooter who appeared and disappeared suddenly in the chaos, apparently abetted by a
cleverly-placed repository for the real kill weapon.

But how did the team placed in the kill alley know the candidate would transit?

Kennedy's advisers were outflanked by a mystery figure provided by the same advance man who brought another misdirector from
Oklahoma, handing off to a CIA airline CEO emeritus, all channeling the target held in place by a last-minute security guard.

Nice, nice, very nice. So many convenient persons in the same device.

Author Michael Calder presents a carefully designed plan, the long game, long in preparation; long in cover-up. The Murder of RFK
is a view from above with zoom shots of key waypoints.

Phil and Bruce. Nice summary from Phil. Had an excellent hour long interview on the "Jeffi says what?"radio show in Los Angeles recently. I explored how Senator Kennedy was separated from his security team by an"Advance man" then directed to the ambush backstage by someone he trusted but was playing for the other team and how Sirhan gained access to the pantry and the stopping of Kennedy's forward movement so he would be a stationary target. Also, Thane Cesar's role and the identification of the second shooter. All new thinking on the case. Go to 860 the answer, KRLA in Los Angeles,then to Saturday night show at 8p.m., Jeffi said what and scroll down in the archive to March 28 2026. Everything you want to know and then some.
