This is all well and good, but when will we be hearing RFK Jr himself call for a comprehensive negotiated peace settlement in the Middle East? Netanyahu is making apocalyptic rants, the US is on hair-trigger alert against their imagined "axis of evil." We need a presidential peacemaker NOW.
Persuasive, with history I did not know about JFK in the early years of Israel, his humane and smart views on the Palestinians. I hope Bobby evolves on the appalling events we're seeing every day in Gaza and the West Bank.
This is a shift re Palestine for RFK Jr It’s subtle but it basically dismantles the MIC throughout the world and the focus shifts to domestic problems that are currently ignored. It’s a start but given it (mass murder by Israel) is happening as I write this, RFK Jr would be wise to write a specific plan of ceasefire to begin immediately. And a call for mass protests against any more US military involvement.
Bobby Kennedy must immediately rebuke Netanyahu for insisting on war, demand an immediate ceasefire and then of course oppose the printing of billions of U.S. fiat dollars to fuel the flames of continued war!
I hear you ... BUT! ... an initial response is super important, and it leaves the door wide open for those on the other side to react accordingly. If Kennedy would have shown any concern and empathy for the Palestinian people, (as JFK did), he would not be in such hot water with progressives and now many independents. Why do you think Kucinich quit? ... Kucinich's wife is on the board of an organization that promotes well being and dignity for Palestinian refugees. Leaders give measured responses to crisis situations, not emotional ones. The initial response is what lasts in voters minds. (ask Hillary how she feels now about her "deplorables" comment!)
After three weeks of Gaza genocide justified by a likely false flag, will Bobby show true Independence by speaking against U.S. money and troops sent to Israel? Will he demand an end to world war brinkmanship perpetrated by the U.S. and Israel?
Both nations oppose a nonbinding resolution for immediate ceasefire in Gaza that was overwhelmingly approved by the U.N. General Assembly. Where's Bobby? Many of his fans wonder and lose patience.
Superb articulation of the single most important issue now facing our nation and why RFK Jr should be the Next President.. this current ongoing Global disaster is the direct result of a Corporatocracy on Steroids.. pursuing profits at All costs.. take your pick of the various Industrial complex's that Actually run this nation.. there is not One which has any REAL moral or ethical imperative.. at its Core other than Profit ..
It is time for a REAL National Change.. RFK Jr has the Vision and the Integrity to Lead this Change...
Others have alluded to this, but I think the problem is simple: he has not called for the IDF to immediately stop slaughtering 2.3 million civilians in Gaza.
He's been good on Ukraine and talks a good game on imperialist war generally, but this is gut check time. Opposition to an open genocide is absolutely necessary if he's going to maintain his credibility as an anti war candidate. He's going to have to make a clear statement in opposition or become lumped in with the rest of the despicable ruling class of the US in the eyes of the good people of the world.
Is he really different than the war lunatics of our two oligarchical parties?
To be honest, i read through this very quickly, and with a heavy heart. a couple of months ago i would have enthusiastically agreed with every word and circulated this article to as many people as i could. i was 100% on board Robert's campaign. But now I pause, and I wonder. Robert's recent statements on the newest mideast war are completely different from the anti war rhetoric of his uncle and his father, and completely different from what we love when he talks about unity and healing the divides, and becoming free of the military industrial complex. I almost donated another few thousand dollars to tell him this personally. But I am holding onto my money and my support until I hear him change his tune. I know I am not alone with these sentiments. I hope and I trust he will.
Agree, I don't hear him calling for a ceasefire. I don't hear him saying no more money to these foreign countries. I haven't heard him come out against those calling for censorship against the pro-Palestine protests, or the abuse the police are inflicting upon the protestors.
He talks about seeing the other perspective, but he doesn't seem to be willing to do that with those of us who oppose the foreign aid; he doesn't seem to want to listen to those of us who don't want our tax dollars used for the welfare state.
Nothing is FREE, it comes from the taxpayers. It is never FREE.
I agree with Kennedy on the issues addressed in your article, especially about government corruption, the wars we're engaged in, covert operations, and taking care of business at home. The current US government is psychotic, corrupt and out of control.
It isn't just the executive branch; it's the entire federal government to include Congress.
Congress is even worse than the Biden regime because Congress has failed its constitutional responsibilities and duties, is as corrupt as the Biden administration, and is allowing this regime to operate as a totalitarian and treasonous government.
If Kennedy wins, he'll face the same challenges as Trump faced, and will be undermined just as Trump was. He'll be viciously attacked even worse than he is now.
I support RFK, Jr. He would make an excellent president - IF he can withstand the attacks, and all the corruption that will surround him.
Sorry Aaron, but RFK, Jr.'s refusal to vigorously join the majority of the world's population calling for an immediate cease fire in the Middle East and insisting on the UN sanctioned two-state solution is NOT a new "peace policy" for the United States. It's the same old establishment war party garbage of the past 20 years in sheep's clothing. Labelling China, Iran or the BRICS as America's "enemies" is right out of the MIC's endless wars playbook. Although I happily attended the independent candidacy announcement in Philadelphia and was interviewed and covered by the Kennedy Beacon, this phony RFK, Jr. "peace" plan is a definite deal breaker for me. Too bad.
Bobby kind of lost me with his demonstrated support of Israel, waving their flag and responding verbally with support like mainstream does. I had such high hopes that he would stand up for what is right. The issue is so convoluted, but I’m certain he knows that Hamas was developed by moussed and cia, that this is all a constructed disaster like all the others. It’s all about manipulation to freak us all out, depopulate as is part of the plan, and power.
Fantastic article for a worthwhile world equilibrium by Aaron.
BUT:
Fantastic Contradiction when the Kennedy of today approves, and supports the Genocide of Palestinians which started in 1948 with the UN giving permission for Jews to settle in Palestine...
Instead of looking for a peaceful integration, systematically the Zionist-Jew-Controllers aggressively proceeded to kill and take over the homes and farms of the Palestinians killing when needed.
Amazing that RFK Jr. swallowed the Propaganda that the Zionists managed to produce.
Smart enough not to swallow Vaccine propaganda but not enough to not swallow this one
Totally disenchanted I am ... no, I am not Arab/Muslim fanatic or even supporter, nor I excuse Hamas in any way.. but I excuse much less the disproportionate and purposeful murder of children and civilians for the ethnic cleansing of the land the Zionists want. Amazed that RFK Jr. is not denouncing this!!!
RFK Jr should listen to the protests of the Jews that denounce the Netanyahu ethnic cleansing practice.
And also this criticism goes to his supporters who keep this under the rug when it is totally contrary to RFK Jr's own Quest for Peace concept. Peace except when I do not want it???

Anybody seen the Kruschev JFK letters published in 1999 ? Why is it not in any library !

I wish I could vote for RFK Jr. today!
