Just watched American Experience Robert F Kennedy PBS Documentary. I would definitely recommend this documentary.
Sirhan Sirhan
The documentary spent only about 1-2 minutes on the assassination of Robert F. Kennedy as if it was just another killing in the 1960s. We only learn the name of the assassin and where it happened. Nothing else. This is lousy work by the creators of this documentary.
That the assassin is still alive and serving his prison term the viewer would never know. The killer was born in Jerusalem. He is a Jordanian citizen. His assassination is perhaps one of the first major terrorist acts of Arabs/Muslims against Western countries, predating the 1972 Olympic Games massacre of Israeli athletes.
When reading some of the detailed circumstances of RFK’s murder one wonders how the assassin knew where RFK would be at that time since his path inside the hotel to the next event were changed ad hoc.
Did the killer really act alone?
