There are good reasons to think that the KGB arranged the murders of John F. Kennedy, Martin Luther King, and Robert F. Kennedy, as well as of other Americans. Note: “good reasons”, not definitive proof. In each case, I will argue that We must consider the KGB the leading suspect (in the JFK assassination, a KGB rogue and the Mafia collaborated while the KGB acted as a ghost partner). This perception can guide further investigation that can result in the more definitive finding that the KGB arranged these and related murders.
First, I will explain how the KGB and Mafia have emerged as the prime suspects in the JFK assassination. Not only was this the most important and best-known case. New evidence and interpretation point to the KGB’s role in particular and have implications for the other murders. Second, I will treat each of ten likely KGB murders in summary fashion. Third, I will touch on factors that have hampered resolution of these cases for many decades. Fourth, comparing the cases, I will identify characteristics of the KGB’s art of deniable murder. Fifth, I will draw some conclusions.

Sometimes a storyteller misses the real meaning of the story.
By all accounts, the Cuban Missile Crisis was the most dangerous episode of the Cold War. The United States and the Soviet Union came frighteningly close to launching nuclear attacks at each other. Only fear, luck, and occasionally inspired negotiating moved them onto the path of resolving the crisis−via a humiliating Soviet withdrawal in the face of U.S. nuclear superiority.
Historians have identified many motives for the initial Soviet decision to place missiles in Cuba.
