Raymond, RE: "When Bobby Kennedy tried to keep hope alive and became a very viable anti-war progressive candidate in the 1968 primaries, he was assassinated by the Right Wing of our government."
No, I don't think he was killed by the RW government.
He was killed by someone from the Middle East.
He was assassinated by a Palestine immigrant that moved to the USA when 12 years old, prior to that he saw towns in his country wiped out due to war. He killed Kennedy because he was obviously a sick person venting out his frustrations over what he perceived was Bobby Kennedy's support of Israel's destruction of Palestine. Eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth, runs too deep.

"Bin Laden: Goal is to bankrupt U.S."
"We are continuing this policy in bleeding America to the point of bankruptcy. Allah willing, and nothing is too great for Allah," bin Laden said in the transcript.
As part of the "bleed-until-bankruptcy plan," bin Laden cited a British estimate that it cost al Qaeda about $500,000 to carry out the attacks of September 11, 2001, an amount that he said paled in comparison with the costs incurred by the United States.
