Racial Assassinations 1965- 1972

You did know that Malcolm X broke with the NOI because he disagreed with their leaderships' antics and politics? You do also know that some people suspect the NOI was behind his assassination and even if they weren't, that they had previously attempted to have him killed?

I didn't see the movie if that is what you mean.
 
George Wallace was white, wasn't he? I mean, wasn't he that guy that started out racist, but then came to see reason and eventually fought for black rights?

As for Malcolm X, well, there is some debate about whether he wanted equal rights, or revenge against whites. Frankly, I wouldn't include him in any list with King... as for that idiot Rockwell, he needs to be in another list altogether... one reserved for well-deserved assassinations. Like Mussolini and Hitler.

(There, is the thread over now by Godwin's Law?)

Rockwell was a US Naval Commander who fought Hitler and Mussolini in WW II.
 
MaGz- when exactly do you plan to blaim the parasitic race, known as "Die Juden", for all these assassinations?

When it rains on the weekend and ruins your day, do you blaim the Jews?
 
Long story short Malcolm X believed that Blacks and Whites should stay segragated but equal should actually mean equal. (And yes he did not like White people.)

Then he went on a pilgrimage to Mecca and actually spoke, ate, prayed with White muslims. He realised that "All white people are devils" was wrong, as mentioned earlier he split from NOI and I for one do believe that it was NOI that had him killed.

I would advise reading his autobiography, or atleast watching the movie. The film is fairly accurate and it was the real reason Denzel got his Best actor oscar.;)
 
I think its due to possible Jewish lineage. Some of the greatest anti-Semites are Jews themselves. Just look at Benjamin Freedman.

Four men who were considered racial agitators back in the 1960s had assassination attempts made upon them. Three were successful.

Is there a pattern here?

Do you think there was a conspiracy to silence these men?

YES, there is a pattern:
If you are a high-profile figure during times of great unrest between two or more groups, you are likely to be targeted for assassination by opponents. Though this is a bit more of a sweeping generalization than I normally go for, it does at least serve the purpose to demonstrate the potential for false positives in pattern recognition, for which you seem to be making yourself famous for.

Speaking as an outsider, I can definitely see a pattern.

They were all human beings.




Do I win something?

That is nothing but a dumb rumor that perpetuates the myth of the self-hating jew. kind of surprised that you give it any credence.

one of my friends was at that show Dime got shot at, and he can vouch that there were NO Chinese Silkworm Missiles used at the Alrose Villa that night.

And to be fair, Dime's riffs DID show up on the seismograph :D

You're saying they were Stingers? (knowing nod)

Wow. Three people died. Coincidence ? I DON'T THINK SO!!!

The Nation of Islam was just as racist and exclusive as the American Nazi Party. One could argue they were mirror images of each other.

Yes, I'm sure both are very similar in that little world of yours.

Yes. Malcolm X was a fictional character. :rolleyes:
 
MaGZ, what do you think the pattern is? You're awfully obscure about these things.

This is just a lame attempt by MaGZ to put Rockwell in the same category as King.

Sorry Nazi apologist, you failed.

Most things about Nazism are lame which means they lead to celebacy. Drinking alcohol, for instance and reminicing about glory.

I started this post with the intent of presenting the possibility of a US government conspiracy having a hand in the assassinations and attempted assassination of the above mentioned individuals. Although each case has an argument for conspiracy, I would like an examination that all may have been killed (or attempted) by a US counterintelligence or national security group (something that may informally and unofficially exist).

I am not convinced this is the case; I would just like to hear some comments.
