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. Given the paucity of evidence, we might never obtain such proof. Rather, in each case, I will argue that We must consider the KGB the leading suspect. That is a useful finding, and it can guide further investigation that could result in the more definitive finding that It was all the KGB.
First, I will explain how the KGB has emerged as the prime suspect in the JFK assassination. Not only was this the most important and best-known case; new evidence and interpretation point to the KGB and have implications for the other murders. Second, I will treat each of ten cases in summary fashion. Third, I will touch on factors that have hampered resolution of these cases for many decades. Fourth, I will compare the cases and identify characteristics of the KGB’s art of deniable murder. Fifth, I will draw some conclusions.
