The Assassination of Charlie Kirk
Paul Craig Roberts
Charlie Kirk was not killed by a kook in the audience . It was an organized assassination. The rifleman was on a roof, which indicates planning and forethought. The rifleman was an expert. One shot did the job. The rifleman disappeared, which indicates planning. Kirk’s murder has the mark of a professional planned assassination.
Why was Charlie Kirk assassinated? Because he was a leader beyond the control of the ruling establishment? The ruling establishment has never tolerated leaders who are not their pawns. Think Martin Luther King. He was a rising leader of black Americans, and some white Americans were beginning to see some merit in the man. Like all humans, King had his faults, but he spoke reconciliation not only between black and white Americans but also between the US and the world. The establishment eliminated the leadership threat. Think of the eight-year effort to politically assassinate Donald Trump: Russiagate, documents gate, insurrection gate, four criminal indictments, civil suits to confiscate his assets, constant media hostility.
Kirk is credited with leading American youth back to God and family values, away from drugs, video game violence, and pornography. He thus threatened important commercial profits. If Andrew Anglin is correct, Kirk’s downside is that he was a shill for Israel. https://www.unz.com/aanglin/charlie-kirk-may-have-lost-his-status-as-one-of-the-most-men-alive-but-will-be-remembered-as-an-evil-villain/
Kirk was a possible future president who could have sufficient public support to dismantle the American Ruling Class. This could be the reason Charlie Kirk was assassinated.
Trump’s supporters should make some effort to comprehend the enormous challenge Trump faces. If they keep showing their unhappiness with him, the Ruling Establishment will decide the time is right for a third assassination attempt.
